Wild and ineffective pitching on the part of young Geo. Keefe and the very reverse on that of Smiling Micky Welch caused the defeat of the senatorial base ball team yesterday by the ex-champions by the score of 7 to ~ cet day's fielding was poor, very poor, and ting was so light that the game dragged on with- out much interest. Daly's catching and the fielding of Wise, Ward, and Ewing were the features of the contest. Daly hada large con- tract on his hands to receive the erratic de- livery of Keefe, and it was due to him that there were no wild pitches made by the Sena- torial twirler. Owen Clarke ae beni lace of Peter Sweeney and did very well, - fe his three chances without anerror. Wilmot reappeared in left field, but showed that he had not quite recovered his form, for the scores credit him with an error. Buthe compensated for this with a homerun that brought forth great applause, With the score 3 to 1 against them, ¢ Giants made 6 run: the fourth inning and won the game. Daly made a two-bagger, and Hoy, Wise, Mack and Carney each a single, Daly had 12 chances and accepted 11 of them. Keefe struck out3men and gave 7 bases on balls and Welch struck out 6 men and gave 4 bases. Washington made 6 hits and 3 errors and New York 9 hits and 5 errors, OTHER GAMES. Boston squeezed out of a small aperture and won from Philadelphia by the score of 6 to 5. Each team scored in the ninth, the Phillies 2 and the Beaneaters 1. The batteries were Clarkson and Bennett and Sanders and Schriver, Schrivers’ two wild throws lost the game, giv- ing the Hubbites 4 runs. Boston made 12 hits and 4 errors and Philadelphia 10 hits and 6 errors. Pittsburg bunched some hits in the fifth in- ning and by scoring three earned runs won from Cleveland by the score of 3 to 2. The game was close and exciting, the field work being sharp and clean. Sowders and Miller and Gruber and Zimmer were the batteries, Pittsburg made 6 hits and 2 errors and Cleve- land 5 hits and 3 errors, 5 Chicago won an eleven-inning game from Indianapolis by the score of 7 to 6. Anson's men scored 4 in the second, and then the Hoosiers pulled up and by the ninth had tied the score, making 1 in that inning. The tenth was unproductive, but in the eleventh the Indians made 2 and the Chicagoans 3, An error by Hines was responsible for 2 of the runs made by Chicago. Getzein and Daily and Dwyer and Farrell were the batteries. Chicago made 8 hitsand 1 error and Indianapolis 13 hitsand lerror, McGeachy made a wonderful batting record, 5 hits and five tim: t the bat, made a single, a double and a home run.

At Columbus—St. Louis, 10; Columbus, 8, THAT RUMORED DEAL. The revival of the rumors pointing to the transfer of the St. Louis Browns to this city next year, as printed in yesterday's Star, has caused considerable local gossip. The pre- vailing opinion is that such a move would be greatly to the benefit of this city, and base ball lovers say that they fear it is only too good to be true. Onthe heels of the dispatch from Pittsburg comes one from St. Louis giving an interview with Von der Ahe, in which he laugh- ingly said that he had never negotiated with Washington, had no intertion of leaving the association, and that the story was one of those periodical yarns that are always fying around about the Browns, Notwithstanding this, how- ever, knowing ones place a great deal of confi- dence in the truth of the rumor and say that it is a most probable event. There can no the culmination of the deal would ington a team that would make the pennant-winners hustle for their honors. It would build up base ball in this city to a profit- able extent and would cause a general strength- ening of the league, THE ANNUAL Loss, The association loses a team to the league every year, and there is no change in the field more probable than the transfer of the Browns to the capital, for both cities are ripe for a change. St. Louis is nauseated with victory Year after year the Browns have won penants until there is no longer the interest of uncer- tainty in their records, a condition that kills enthusiasm. On the other hand, the people of this city are about tired out with successive leather medals, and every year the home team ends up the league list the interest dies out a httle more. There are no two cities that are in better condition for a transfer than these, and the denial of Von der Ahe, veteran base ballist that he is, must be construed in a rather differ- ent light than that which emanates from its face. Von der Ahe does not care to have this thing known too soon; he is sufficiently well versed in the quips and foibles of human na- ture, and especially that section of it that pa- tronizes the bleaching boards, to foresee clearly the dwindling of his gate receipts all the rest of this season if he should acknowledge the truth of this prematurely-told plan. With these facts in mind the base-ball public of Washington had better be prepared for all sorts of happenings within the next four months, seeing ea POLICE COURT REFORM.
