CHICAGO, Through »a sudden and wnexpected Inpse from perfect play to the worst kind of dg- morallzation, tha Chicago team yesterdiy lost in the last half of the ninth Inning ws gane that was safely won by a score of 3 to 1, and the Providonce fellows gratefully accepted the unlooked-for gift, and left town with ono gane won, Whereas within five minutes of its occurrence thoy did not dream of being able to do such a thing. ‘here were present 1,600 people, and while, owing tothe excep tlonully skillful work of tho pitchers on both sides, the batting was light, with here and thore a strony hit met by strong fielding, the ganie for elghtand o halt innings wasn brill- fantone tn its flelding aspects, Both Mathews aud Corcoran, the respective pitchers, wero in fine form, more especially the former, whose slow dropping balls never failed to se- cure either a missed or a called strike, ar clxo an ensgy fly or grounder. Corcoran was ex- tremely effective In his delivery, but at one time showed shocking bad judgment In giv- ing York, a wenk hitter, his basa on balls, with a mun already on first, so that thestrong batsmen came forward, and a two-baser by Hines brought Ina run, Again in the ninth funtng a wild pitch permitted men toadvance to second and third, and spoiled all possible chance of a double play. ‘The responsibility for losing tho ame was equally divided be- tween Quest, Tlint, Corcoran, Dalrymple, and Anson,—Quest fumbling a grounder, Flint making a wild throw, Dalrymple niutt- ing a ily, Corcoran scvoting the ball where no hhumat agency could lave stopped it, and Anson mufing grounder, Chicago tallied in the second inning on Willlamson’s single, a clean steal to second, 4 paasod bull whieh took him to third, and wild pitch which let him como home—all by Ughining buse-running, however, Aguin in tho sixth Anson got nround on Furrell's bigh throw and singles by Williuinson and Burns. Providence got a tally In tho third Inning on Denny's single, a base on bali, and Hines’ twoe buser, nnd by perfect field piny any moro run-getting was prevented until the last half of tho nloth, when the errors above montioned oc- curred, und Ward and Mathews crossed the plate and won the gume. For some mysterious reason Capt, Angon left hia inileld in thelr cts tomary positions when but one tun was out and aceond and third bases wore occupled, Instend of bringing alt the telders farward in the dinmond to out olf the run fram third, It tuok one bso hitand flveerrors in bulf an inning to giva Providenco the victory,—n chain of olrcum- stancer quite. unusual, und certaluly not at all creditable to the home team.
