Senator Teller. 'is one of worId-vvi5e
Importance, and there has come TO he
such a divergence between prices n,

the Monetary Commission. but ne has
no doubt mat at the proper time the
commission will hear Sir Morato,,
Frewen. as It's object IS to gain in

It is seldom that a switch in the

the right way yesterday afternoon at
the Valencia street lot and the Seals

combination revolved and he came in
to bat for MeIchoir, with two men on
the sacks and one down. His singing
bingle TO the left garden is still ring
ing in the ears OF everybody who was
there and it figures like one of those
that makes baseball history.
Both teams had been battling and
struggling all the afternoon without
effort and the fans hardly looked for
a run till Kid Mohler got one of those
bases on balls in the eleventh Hide
brand should have laid down bunt
but he saw chance to stick over a
hit and he raped the ball over the
third base line, starting an awful
howl.
There was nothing left for Zeider
but to bunt, and he did this very grace
fully. advancing both men. Melchoir
was due TO take a clout at the ball.

figured as factor.

Cook in the first and one by Eagan in
