Denver, May S.-Umpire Shoemaker,
gave Denver two runs Sunday anu
wrecked the Topeka team by pencnlng
| three of its leading members, but still
he failed to heat the Kaws. Moore's
champions came from behind with
rush in the eighth and ninth innings
and took the second of the series py d
score of to 5. Sixty-hve hundred
fans crowded Broadway park to witness
the contest and with few exceptlons
the vast mob was shouting for Topeka
after the fourth inning, when MS jumps
handed Denver the lead in the game.
Topeka had scored one in each the
first and second innings and held a run
lead in the fourth inning. McGrath
walked Quillen and Lindsay IN sue
cession and Coffey sacrificed them cas-
sidy walked, filling the bases with one
out. McMurray lined one TO RlckSLC'
who threw to the plate to catch Qulllen.
The hall and runner reached nome at
the same time and although 1t appear
ed that CULLEN was sare' SnoeIndhcA
waved his hand, sign useo IN luuI-
eating an out. The Topeka plaSe -
started for the bench, but much 10

ed that he had called CULLEN safe. IN
the meantime Lindsay had crossed the
Mate with a second run ana CASSIDY
went to second.
Moore ChoI<es Umpire.
The Topeka players rushed toward
ed that he would be mobbed right on
the field. In fact, Manager Moores an
ger grew to such an extent tna| ne
grabbed his jumps by the throat anu
nrobabIv would have choked MIN on
The snot had not Catcher Hawkins ana
rnemb ers of the Denver team lnter1ereu.
Other Topeka players took a turn at
telling the alleged arbitrator wnat they
thought of him. 1t was nearly 10 nlIi-
utes before order was restored. When
rlav was finally resumed, Moore, -Whlt-
new and McGrath were absent from
the lineup, having been ordered on the
field. Fugate was forced to go INTO the
box without warming up. odDr1S W.
sent to first in Whitney's place: Hawk
ms went to right field and Breltensteln
deserted that position to I'LL Manaeei
Moore's shoes at second.
IT took the revamped Kaws some time
tn get into their stride again ana Den
Yer succeeded in increasing her lead TO
the extent of two runs in the sixth ana
one more in the seventh. But the TIDE
turned in the eighth. With two down
Coffey dropped Thomason's Texas
league fly. Sabre and Hopke singled;
Hawkins cleaned up with a triple anu
Frambes fled out.
Harris Called In.
Topeka was now only one behind,
while Fugate was holding the Grizzlies
safe. The Kaws were only beginning
to hit the ball. F'rambes opened the
ninth with Oouhe anu = usdte D0oS
out an infield hit. Harris was here
called upon to stop the batting bee and
he relieved Ehman. who had been
pitching for Denver. Hafford hit TO
Lloyd, who cut off Fugate at second:
Rickert singled, scoring F'rambes, and
tying the score. Thomson was en- by
a. fielder's choice, when Hafford was
cut off at third. Sabre came to the
scratch with his second timely hit and
Rickert romped over the plate with
the winning run. Hopke hit to Quill
len. who touched Sabre for the third
out.
Denver was unable to score in their
half of the ninth and Mr.. Shoemaker
had been foiled.
