Mobile Aug. 20.-( Special )--Five pitchers tn one game is a mighty good record, but bases filled five times in as many innings commes near equaling 1t.
 This is just what happened this aft ernoon in the game between Fishers aggregation and the boys from Mem phis. yet in the entire hit or miss game that was played there were just nine runs made. the Memphii taking i've of them.
 From the manner in which the game opened 1t looked as though the bet ting was all one way and that those who had placed their faith in the home team would be able to buy things tonight.
 Right from the jump the Sea Gulls filled the bases without sacrificing a single man. Sentell came to the plate. popped out one that was good for just one bag. but an accommodating out fielder for the. Memphii threw wild to the plate and three men gaIloped across in quick succession. In the some stunts. Once again the bases were filled with no man down and in less time than 1t takes to record 1t. there were enough runs chalked up to the Memphis team to make the Mobile rooters turn pale. Just four good swats was all that the Memphis boys took from Becker In this inning and every man on the batting order had chance to face him.
 Fisher used Becker. Killian and Hickman to do the firing the latter performing in the last inning only. Fisher himself got in the game by batting in the eighth for Killian. Kei- Der and Shields did the shooting for the Memphis boys.
 It was a slow game throughout and one that might have been anybody's at any minute. Sabrie went out of the game in the first and Massing took his place on the initial bag.
 Memphis made three double plays that hurt some.
 owen was put out of the game for disputing a decision of Moran's and O'Leary took his place
