PHILADELPHIA, April 5.-After

fought contests ever seen in this city
was brought to an end late this af
ternoon when darkness interviewed and
the game was called at the end of the
eighteenth inning with the score at
| 2 to Q.
Brown, the young Atlantic City
| pitcher, who was on the mound for
| the Athletics, was easily the hero of
i the game. The siege did not seem to
| tell on him and his arm seemed to
strengthen as the game wore on. Al
though the Phillies touched him up
| for thirteen hits, he kept them we'll
scattered after the first inning. He
struck out six men and allowed only
two bases on balls Brennan did the
most effective work for the Phillies,
striking out seven men. The Athletics
scored two runs in the first inning on
a single by Murphy, bases on balls to
1 Collins and Baker, and long safe
drive by McInnes, which sent Murphy
and Collins across the plate
The Phillies tied the score in the
ninth, when Capron singled to right,
took third on wild throw of Lobert's
grounder and scored on Miller's drive
to right. Lobert then scored the sec
ond run of the inning on Luderus'
sacrifice to center. The score:
Athletics 2ooo0o0ooooooo 8 /
Phillies 00oo0ooo20ooo o00oo-2 10 4
