Little Rock, August 9.-(Special.)- )-Ar- thur Johnson lasted only an inning, while Karl Black was victim of heavy attacks ir the fourth and fifth rounds and the Travellers took another from the Barons today, 8 to 8. Couchman had the Moles- worths baffled with his slow curves and until the eighth had permitted but one hit, Eliam's short drive in the sixth, which Murray dropped after hard try.
 In the eighth Ellam received ride and Hale who had replaced Wallace in the fifth, drove a single over second Black walked, filling the bases. Sloan ripped drive down the third base line and Ellam and Wallace came home. Moesworth raised fly for Messenger and Black scored. Then Couchman tight ened and famed Coyle and coombs, leav- ing Sloan to perish on second.

Jack Wallace Hurt

In the fifth Wallace received foul up from Bakers bat on the left knee, tear ing loose the stitches on an old cut.
 The Barons are still handicapped by the absence of Magee who received a sprained ankle in Fridays game in a collision with Starr at first. The injury probably will keep him out of the game q week.
 Jantzen Starr and Messenger got two singles and a. double from the first four balls Johnson pitched Gibson followed with a single that brought Messenger in with the locals third run.
 Black was effective four innings then singles by Covngton and Downey wild throw to third by Wallace to catch Gov ington off and a single by Jantzen scored two more. Murray's double, series of short singles which dropped just outside the infield and Coombs' bad throw to third scored three for the Travellers in the fifth
 Burleigh Grimes is Molesworth's choice for the flinging tomorrow in the final of the series. He will be opcsed by Bill Fincher, who flung the tight duel With Robertson at the start of the series.

FERRY Co. EXTENDS
PENNSCROVE Landing
Extension Will Give Vessels
IS Feet OF Water at
Low Tide
FERRY BOATS WILL
CONTINUE ON LINE

Plans are being drawn for an ex-
tension of 10 feet to the Pennsgroye
pier OF the Wilmington and Penns-
grove Ferry Co. This fact is proba-
Dly the foundation for the report that
Terry boats now running with pas
ssngsrs ana freight between here and
rennsgrove would be taken of and
the Wilson line boats land passen-
gers there on their regular trips,
When Gihcials CI the Wilson Line
we're asked about the rumor this
morning they said that the report that
the ferrybOats would be taken Off
the line was absurd, but the report
that the pier would be extended so
that the vessels drawing more water
than the ferryboats would be enabled
to land was correct.
They declared that no plans had
been made for the landing OF the
liners at Pennsgrove. but should it
ever become necessary the addition
to the pier would permit the landing.
When the extension Is made TO the
pier it will give vessels touching
there fifteen feet of water at low
tide.
In a short time the Peoples Steam
boat Company expects to be operat-
ing two ferry boats between the
wharf at Market street bridge on the
Christiana to the Old Barber's Wharf
in PennsgrOve.
