counts Oliver and his associates were
very active in their efforts to acquire
the property.

With Boehling on third Foster raised a
high foul that looked as though 1t
would go into the press box. Nuna-
maker got back fast and grabbed the
ball Just as II descended. All those
who were in position to follow the
flight Of the ball expected TO see Foster
waved out. But instead, Chill told
him to remain at the plate, contending
that the bail in its descent had struck
the mesh il front of the stand. AS
a matter of fact the ball did not come
within a foot of the wire netting.
Then started the roar from the New
York players which only eliminated
with the banishment of Chance and the
expression OF approval of his action py

team he was trying to beat Foster

decided the issue.

kind Of stun that Is dealing such deadly
blows to the national sport. That Ban

tense feeling that exists in this city
against Umpire Chill. following the
farce OF Philadelphia last week. seems
reasonable. But In the face Of fiery
