Secretary Robb and Earl Wagner were sull hard at work teday on the “Ladies’ tay” tickets, and it will take several days to straighten things out. About 3,000 ap- plications have been made, but about 700 of these have been returned for correctten on account of being defective in the matter of indorsements. ° President Nothing has beer heard from either Maul or King. The good hitting of Ed. Cartwright in = yesterday's game has given great encour- agement to his friends, and considerable Sued by a sort of hoodoo for some time, and it is hoped his lucky time has come. The big first baseman always hits the ball fhard enough, but when on the ground it has xenerally gone into the hands of a flelder, and the same can be said of his fly hits, unless he gets onto the ball good and hard and almost drives it out of the lot. Yesterday Cartwright got in a beautiful deuble and single, making two of the six hits secured by the “McGuires.” Mr. Wagner said this morning that he ts perfectly satisfied that Ed. will do good work this season, and that, although his pfficial average last year was only .278, he stcod above Beckley and Tebeau. He also | sald that his private scoring placed Cart wright at The big boy is away down in weight, and his splendid base stealing last season is | very likely to be repeated and perhaps. in- creased. “Farrels” Turned the Tables. It was the ‘‘Farrells’ turn to laugh yes- terday, as they handily won from the “Mc- Guires” by the score of & to 4 at National Park yesterday afternoon. The players on both sides appeared to have regained their batting eye, and as the pitchers had dem- enstrated their ability the day previous, they also concluded to take it @ Ifttle more easy. As a result German was touched up rather lively by the “Farrells” while he was on the rubber, and Swaim, who fol- jJowed him, also received several jolts—one @ three-bagger by Ashe. The day previous Hillary was in the box only one inning for the “McGulres,” but in that time struck ut two men, and the third one went out on an easy fly. The feature of the game was undoubtedly Charley Reilly's playing at third base.
