Baltimore April 6.-The Brooklyn Su-
perbas beat the Orioles by one nun here
this afternoon in the sharpest game
PLAYED so far this season. Both teams
were in fine fettle, and the fielding was
of rnidseason character. At first it looked
as II Brooklyn would make runaway
race. but in the ninth II looked as II
Baltimore would make a Garrison finish
The score was TO ..
Both guesses went astray however, for
Dave Danforth. who gave symptoms -
being a trihe off, struck his stride after
the first inning. and the Brooklyns were
unable to do any business again until the
seventh. when they added one tally 10
their score and then stopped short
Aitchison, the former Newark left
handler. started the game for the ST.
perbas and had the orioles guessing
throughout the innings he oficiated ON
the mound. PETER, who pitched the last
three innings, was a much easier propo-
sition. He was touched up for four hits,
which netted two runs, and he was lucky
10 get off so easily.
II was a pass TO Dalton. the first man
I'D in the first, Cutshaw's sacrifice and a
wild throw and Wheat's single that gave
the Superbas their start Their last tally,
which came in the seventh, resulted from
Fishers double and Cutshaw's single.

course, is on the assumption that Evans
will be there.
In discussing the international situa-
ton. Harold II. Hilton writes as follows:
"Our professionals are hardly likely to
take the defeat at Brookine last fall

other British attack in that quarter. And
what an interesting and exciting meeting

players challenged the Americans who
