A streak of poor playing and a lump of poor umpiring prevented the Washington-St. Louis game yesterday from being played to a conelu- | sion that would have been gratifying to the | 2.000 spectators who were present. The poor playing and the bad umpiring helped the Browns the game went down asa tie, and the work was all for naught. The poor playing might have been condoned, but the bad umpiring never can. It wasacase of blindness and rattle on the part of Jim Davis, who officiated. but the | presence in the seorer’s box of the magnates of the game, who had just concluded their session up town, might have had the effect of making him nervous. ‘THE scorr was 2to2 Carsey and Sutcliffe and Stivetts and Boyle were in the points. Curaey pitched splendidly throughout the game, or ae much of [it as Jim Davia wor!4 let him play, and he | seemed to have overcome his std difficulty of weakening after the sixth or seventh inning. Stivetty wasa terror for two innings, but in the third and‘fourt: be seemed to suit the Statesmen exactly and ther began te hit him. The tield work was wopderfullv sharp for the condition of the grounds, whick was soft and 6 was full of brilliant pinvs, | was very exeiting threugheyt. Alvord did | e best infield work, taking eight of his nine chances. HatBcki managed to make twe errors on easy bulls that he should have taken. ‘The | firet one was not disastrous, but the last one was a factor in giving the visitors their first run. A Poor stant. The game was started as though St. Louis would have a walkover throngh the poor work of Carsey. Hatfield fumbled Hoy’s grounder and the next two meu were hit, filling the bases. Noone was out and the air was very biue. O'Neill sent out to left what looked to be a safe tremendous effort and scooped it in, throwing | it home in time to shut off Hoy, who had waited until the ball was eanght Sutcliffe ran lim down and thea_ threw to second very nearly in time to catch Fuller. who had gone around, thinking the bal} wus safe. It was a close cail for a triple play. Then Lyons forced MeCarthy at second. For Washington Murphy went around to third on a base on belly and sacrifices by Mo- wire and Sutcliffe, but Curtis hit a grounder to Comiskey, who threw to Stivetts in what Jim Davie thought was time to eatch the run- ner. He called the side out, to the intense disgust of the crowd. SUARP FIELDING. Another double play shut off the visitors from a rum im the second. Stivetts hit over | Dowd’s head fora base and Comiskey sacri- ficed. ‘Then Eoyle hit to Carsey, who threw to Alvord in time to cateh Stivetts, and the ball Was sent over to MeCanley, who ran Boyle down between first and second. ‘The Statewmen were treated in the same Lyons fumbled MeCanley's grounder and Stivett made a wild throw when Dowd bunted to him. Both run- ners were mafe. Hattield sacrificed by hitti to Stivetts and Alvord let a ball skim ont over second that, like O Neill’s hit inthe first inning, looked safe. Hut it went harder and straighter than any one would have thought and was taken in by Hog, who threw to. se time to ent tf Dow, who found himself stranded in the ween third and second the new second baseman of the | the third with a two-bagger, | first he was eanght off second by x <plensid | throw by Sutcliffe. Fuller gave Alvord a slow | ball and he threw it badly to firet. MeCarthy went down on balls, but O'Neill sent @ skimmer to Alvord, who froze on to it, ana touched out Fuller, iust scone. ‘Washington broke the ice in the third when, after Carsey was out, Murphy bunted toward Lyons for aufe bit McGuire was out ona fly to McCarthy, when Sutcliffe hit past Lyons a base. Murphy went to third on » muff by ‘omiskey of wball throws to fret te the new man. Sutcliffe overran third in his effort tocover as mach ground as possible ou | the hit and was run down. ‘Lhe Statesmen added one to their tally im the fourth. McCauley hit out over second fer o base and took another when Hoy fumbied. Dowd went out from Stivetts to first, and then | Mattield sacrifleed by hitting toComiskey. Al- vord scored the run with a single over MeQuaid to right field, aud Carsey struck out. It looked very much like rain at this time and the home team were making an effort to get five imnings played before the game should be called. In the last half hour of the fourth | Lyons struck ont, and Stivetts flied to Curtin, | who made a muff of the next ball, from Comis- | key, a hard fly in deep righteenter. Boyle put a grounder to MeCaniey, whe picked it up and then had to slide to first'to make the play In the fifth Murphy ified out to eenter and MeGuire and Suteite,in their anxiety to bring | the gume up to five imuings, buted ery bull tu Stivetts, who took then both. In the lat half there were twc men out when Fuller wen to first on balls and around to third on a hi over secoud by McCarthy. Alvord made cov- nection with U'Neiil'y grounder and: put the side out.

Brush, Byrne and Hart, addressed: Gextimmex: We in good faith accepted your proposition for a “peace conference,’ and at- tended with the intention and disposition to make an earnest effort to settle all existing dif- ferences in some manner whieh would be hon- orable both to your people and ours alike. While we were thas engaged with yon in a conference looking to a fair and honorabl: set- tiement we were apprised of the fuct that one of your clubs had (we trust without your knowl edge, consent or permission) cntered our ranks | and induced one of our players to “jump” his contract. You will, of course, agree that in view of this conference, which was well kuown to all your club members who had authorized you to ‘rep- resent them, any such action was niet in good faith, but was a poritive violation of the letter and spirit of the negotiations which had passed between us. In view of this we feel that we cannot prop- erly continue our negotiations until your people have shown 4 disposition to meet and treat fairly. Unless, therefore, you can guarant us the retirn of the player mentioned und good faith in our negotiations and dealings, we shull be compel'ed to withdraw entirely from the conference.
