 Chattanooga, June 11.-(Special.)- fingered because of aedecision by Um- pire Lewis In putting Anderson out of the game in the fifth inning Sunday the Lookouts donned their fighting clothes in the last half of the inning took a momentary partnership with old familiar Dame Fortune and batted and Texas-1eaguered their way te seven runs and victory. Drake pitched steady game against his old team mates, and all though the Lookouts did not pass sec ond any other inning of the game the seven runs were sufficient to de- feat the Barons by ' to 2.
 As is usual when these two teams have played here. the Barons fielded Somewhat erratically. but the Look butter-fingering and gave Drake err rorfess, and at times sensational, sup port, notably when Clayton raced to the deep center fence for Taylor's drive in the eighth. and when Mo Donald robbed Brandon of hit by a nakd hand stop of his sizzler for 6 double play that ended the game. dBaby Act for Umps Lewis ruling on Anderson was the most childish bit of peevishness shown by an umpire here in seasons :, After handling a grounder by Stat ham starting the fifth, Anderson tossed to Neiker.Sorn in the usual throw about fashion. The peg was low and with a warning, Look out" to Lewis behind him. Doc let it SC by. The umpire grew peevish and warned the first sacker. On the next play, Wight threw Stewart out al first. Anderson always plays these throws with the bases empty back tc the catcher. This time, Lewis was standing wide of the base line, Ander- sons throw was wild and Doc again let it go by. Lewis was on the line of the throw. Anderson had not known he was alive on the frs throw. and on the second was looking straight ahead. And the ball was : but Anderson was out of the game ir 5 jiffy.
