Inability to hit Mr.. Lake when bingles
were needed was the chief reason for the
defeat of the Nationals by the Browns
to-day.
Dolly Gray's wildness cost the Nationals
a run in the fourth session. Dolly gave
four all told.
1t certainly was a good game Only
seven hits made and no extra base bingle
In the crowd. Going some for the tail
enders.
Elberfeld. Gessler, and Conroy were the
only Nationals to connect with the shoots
Of Mr.. Lake. The remainder of the crew
from the Capital was content to hit and
sit down. Only three Nationals were left
on bases.
The Nationals played a great game In
the field, not an error being charged
against them. "Reds'' Walker, In left. can

Of the, Pittsburg baseball club, came
within ten shares OF becoming half owner
of the Boston National League baseball
club to-day. Messrs. Baker and Locke
came to this city early this morning to
close an agreement made with President
Russell, by which (as they understood it)
he was to sell them half the stock Of
the local club. Mr.. Baker brought along
the coin to hand over to Mr.. Russell, but
when they had conferred with the latter
they found that the Boston magnate did
not own the club outright; that he held
or controlled $50 shares Of the 1000 out
standing stock, and that in agreeing to
sell them one-half the stock he meant
400 shares, which would leave the pro-
posed purchasers in a position where
they could have little or nothing to say

Cleveland had Harry Lord to
