CHICAGO. May 23.--The opening contest
Of the White Sot's series with the New Yorks
to-day resulted in . defeat for Stallihgs's
players. The Chiosgosns found their bat
ting stride, q thing they have been looking
for most all of the time since tho season
opened. and pounded out q victory by q
score Of 2 to 3. At that the defeat was no
disgrace for the New Workers.. for they
played good baseball and the margin OF
four runs simply indicates the desperate
efforts OF the Comiskeyites to DO something
In the way Of batting.
