The condition of affairs in the metropolis is largely respon- sible for all this. ‘here is a “schism” in the Boston club. ‘The players jawed at each other, glared savagely, and went to the bench as if they were sorry the game wasn’t over. In the fifth inring Hamilton, who was at bat, yelled at his fellow players on the bench to shut up. Twice balls went into the out- field, back of second base, and fell between the players, and no one made much of an effort to secure them. In the seventh Long threw away his glove and was about te waik to the bench, although only two men were cut. He was paying little at- tention to the game.—Pittsburg Exchange.

The Sen- ators outbatted the Orioles and really played a better game in the field, as all the chances offered the visitors were easy, while several of the chances that came the Senators’ way were very difficult. The only semblance of an error was made by Wrigley, who made a gallant effort to catch a short fly to center and just man- aged to get his hands on it, but dropped it. BALTIMORE, McGraw, 3b.

Gossip of the Gi The Senators left last evening for Pitts- burg, and should take breakfast there this morning. This aftternoon they will go against the Pirates, and a pretty game should follow. McJames will probably go on the slab for the Washingtons and Kil- Jen is about due from the Pittsburg side. The Senators will be absent until June 2. Immediately after the game yesterday Al. Maui told Mr. Wagner that he believed he was out of the game for good, and asked for his release, and the latter, with much regret, granted the request.’ Maul has been in hbase ball since 1887, starting that year with the Nashville, Tenn., club. Since that time he has played with the Phillies Took Two at St. Louis. The Phillies played two games at St. Louis yesterday and captured both of them from Capt. Dowd’s players, although both centests were closely played, and the final results were reached only in the last in- nirgs of the games. St. Louis made eleven hits to the Phillies’ five in the first game, but they were scattered, but in the second game the visitors outbatted the home club, although the Browns played without an error. Houseman played his first game at second base for the St. Louis club, and filled the position excellently, and also batted well. “Cornwell’s, on the Avenue.” eee on ey Everybody Is Talking —about our CIGAR DEPART Cigar trade has bee the past few months, The fact of the matter is, we sell better Cigars—several different brands—for Se. than are sold NT.

In every one.of the games the Senators made a good showing, and their exhibition compelled the. Baltimore birds to extend themselves to the limit>to win. The same game put up against several of the other clubs will win mine times out of ten, and the local enthusiasts have no kick coming on account of not getting a run for their money. Our pitching force has now dwindled down to six, and this number will be found to be not one too many before the season closes. Pitchers are ticklish people to de- pend on, as a manager cannot tell when one of them will have to go to the stables with a sore arm or be placed on the bench on account of his effectiveness being lost.
