Baltimore. . ‘The Washington Ball Club lost eleven out of sixteen games on the recent west- ern trip. If yesterday's game can be taken as a sample of the work done ‘the Washing- ton public need be no ionger surprised that a better record was not made. Long be- fore the season opened it was officially an- nounced that the team would start in as it finished last season, with the exception of Reilly at third, but that just as soon as it was shown that there was a weak spot it would be filled. There would be no more waiting until the season was half over to attempt at least to strengthen the team. As it was known that the Wagners had a string tied to the Toronto club, it was be- Meved that one at least of Arthur Irwin's colts vould be brought to Washington in case of need. That there was such need before the team started west the most loyal of the Washington enthusiasts had no doubt, and "- was confidently expected that before the ciose of the series in Pittsburg at least one new face would be seen among the Senators, and it was not expected that it would change places with De Montre- ville's cither. But defeat followed defeat, ard there was no change in the make-up of the team. Everybody knows how hard it is to get good men when the season is well under way, but it was supposed that the Toronto scheme would obviate this difficulty in making experiments at least. Granting that there might be some temporary hitch in making the transfer, the stay-at-homes. could not understand why Farrell and Mc- Guire were not played regularly. Both are good hitters, and play ball all the time, Lut this much cannot be said of all the others. All men do not field well and bat well in the same game. If Cartwright had fielded well yesterday, instead of batting well, the victory would probably have been ours. Though he led the team in batting, Eis hits did not contribute in the least to Washington's scoring. Had he both batted ard fielded well, as a first baseman in the league ought to be able to do, there would have been no doubt about the result. No o1 doubts Mr. Earl Wagner's base ball knowledge, or his business sagacity, and it is therefore all the more surprising that something has not been done to hold together the goodly band of rooters that started the season with such enthusiasm. Mr. Wagner may not be able to strengthen his team just now, but the crowds at Na- tional Park will dwindle day by day unless an attempt is made, and that very soon. Washington is a loyal base ball city— there is none more so. Good crowds will go to see the games day after day, win or lose, so long as the team is as good as can be obtained and is playing ball with snap and life, but there is a Hmit to all things. There is no desire to dictate to the Wash- ington management as to what men to get and how to place them, or to indulge in in- dividual criticism, which has the effect of only discouraging the men. But Mr. Wag- ner has been out of town for several weeks, and he may not realize how the stay-at- homes regard this matter. They believe that Mr. Wagner knows that something ought to be done, and therefore they ex- pect him to do that something, and not to postpone the doing of it. The Senators opened up their series at home yesterday at National Park with a defeat. The Chicago club was the victor, the score being 6 to 5, the old hoodoo of being defeated by one run still falling to the Senators’ lot. A score or more of “ifs” could be indulged to account for yester- day’s defeat, but six misplays, ro matter to whom they belong, tells the tale of the downtall. The game was exciting from start finish, the wind that swept over the grounds driving high flies away from Brown and Thornton, and the start of three runs the Colts made in the first in- ning was quickly covered and a neck and neck struggie resulted at the finish. Lange made a catch in center field that was cf the most sensational order and u! doubtedly prevented two runs from cross- ing the plate. The ball was a low line hit that came skimming from Wrigley’s bat like a flash. The elongated center fielder knew that it would do no good to back on that ball, so he set sail for it with the speed that only Lange possesses, and at the critical second made a dive for the sphere. The ball struck the fielder’s hands not more than six inches from the grounds, but it stuck there, and “Little Eva,” after rolling over a couple of times on the ground, ranaged to pull himself together and arose to his feet and threw to second, coming within an inch of making a double play. The spectators cheered the play enthu- slastically, although, as things turned out, it prevented the Senators from winning the game. Tom Brown tnd “Zeke” Wrigley were the bright particular stars in the game from a Senatorial standpoint. Both made throws to the plate that were almost per- fect and chopped off runs that were on the eve of budding. McJames was on the rubber for the Wash- ingtons and barring the last inning did well, although his let down at that time was in a manner excusable. Denzer start- ed the ball rolling for the Colts, but Cap- tain Anson quickly discerned the young fellow’s weakness and put in Griffith to finish out the game. The Chicagos made three rungs in the first inning as a result of a three-baser by Everett; a base on balls to McCormick; another tlree-baser by Lange, the latter coming home on an infield play. In the second inning another run came their way. Donahue reached first on a flelder’s choice, stole secord and went to third on Far- reus pad throw to second to, catch him napping. Then Everett hit a hard one di- rectly at McJames and the latter “‘shinned” it into right field, Donohue coming home and the batter going to second. to For six innings thereafter ciphers fell to the lot of the Colts, but in the ninth they made the two runs that put them ahead and won the game. Donahue singled to left; Cartwright allowed Griffith's roller to go between his legs and Dorahue took third. Everett walked, and the bases were filled. McJames then made a pretty play, catcn- ing Donahue at the plate on McCormick's hit. Then Mont and Gri: short stop permitted the ball to elude him. Then Anson hammered out a single to left, fe drove a scorcher at De- bringing ir Everett, but McCormick in trying to score out at the pl by Wrigley. The Senators were one run to the the field in the next inning tl run to the bad.

The score was 5 to 3, and the game was unin- teresting. Yale defeated Holy Cross 11 to 5. Base Ball Gossip. Wrigley ts all right. If it had not been for Lange’s phenomenal fielding he would have won yesterday's game by himself. It has been noticed before, and was evi- dent again yesterday, that when there is a rally at the bat, Charley Reilly is tn the scrimmage. The Washington team might not win more games, but they would appear more Uke a first-class ball team if they would put more life into their playing. Beckley may not be an ideal first baseman, but he played with so much ginger when he was here with the New Yorks that some of the Giants who have grown stiff in service had to bestir themselves and keep step with the procession or they would have been left way behind. Cartwright probably had orders from the bench to attempt to steal third in the ninth inning yeserday, but that attempt lost whatever chance there was of victory. By the way, a good many people, ball players as well as on-lookers, doubt the efficacy of bench signaling. It is difficult some- times for a man at the bat to keep one eye on the pitcher and another on the bench. Nestor Anson doubtless slept well last night with the consciousness that had it not been for his stick work the dumpy playing of the Senators would not have given the game to Chicago. Before the geme the old man predicted a victory for the White Stockings, but then Anson has been @ poor prophet almost as long as he has been a good ball player. Charley Farrell encouraged McJames all through yesterday's game. He has a good head and uses it well. His throwing to second 1s very scientific. He loses no time in getting into throwing position, but as scon as the ball is in his hand he “pushes” it from the shoulder without any full arm swing. If the Duke has an enemy either on the 4i™mond or on the bleachers no one knows of it. A little ginger infused into the playing of the Senators would be refreshing. They play brilliantly in spots and make splendid batting rallies, but if they kept playing on their toes all the time they would seem more like a first division team. The Phillies are now talking of trading Grady and Carsey to St. Louis for Catcher McFerland, but the Quaker players refuse to enter into the transaction and the deal may be blocked. Another deal talked of is the exchange of Delehanty and Clements for Lange and Dahlen of the Chicagos. The deal icoks like a good one for both ‘clubs. The second game of the home serics with Chicago will be played this afternoon, Swaim and Briggs protably being on the rubber for their respective clubs. Al. Maul wore a Baltimore uniform for the first time yesterday, but confined his abilities to sitting on the bench. Maul has signed the contract with the Orioles that he refused to sign with the Senators—that is, if he doesn’t pitch good ball he will not get a cent. Maul refused to sign a Wash- ington contract that allowed him one-third pay whether he was good or bad. The ‘Baltimore Sun intimates that Mr. Wagner has put in a claim for Maul since he has gone to the Orioles, but the Washington club has really let go the good-looking pitcher for once and all. Clarence Baldwin, known in the base ball world as “Kid Baldwin, once a famous player, has been taken to the Cincinnati Hospital as a charity patient, a hopeless wreck from dissipation. Many efforts to arsjst him in reformation proved futile, and now a chronic ailment promises to shortly end his life. After the fourth inning Perry Werden took a drink from the Giants’ water keg. He must have poisoned the water or may- be he blew an evil spirit into it, for a3 often thereafter as a New Yorker took a drink he at once became Rip Van Winkle- ized, until the entire nine was dozing. Mr. Werden will hereafter drink from his own canteen.—_New York Herald. Tommy Dowd, who was swapped to Pail- adelphia by St. Louls in exchange for Hall- man and Harley, refuses to go to Philadel phia and is holding out for stake money. .Philadelphia refuses to pay anything and Chris Von der Ahe declares that he will not. In 1889 there was ever so much talk of the wonderful runaway race that the St. Louls association club was making. On May 24 of that year St. Louis had won twenty-four games and lost ten, making the average .705. Baltimore this year has played nearly as many games, has won twenty-four, but lost only eight, making an average of .750. Connie Mack’s Milwatkee team Tuesday won out in the ninth inning against Grand Rapids by a remarkable batting streak after one man was out. Lewis made a dcuble, Mack a single, and then Weaver and Myers each made a triple, tying the score. Daly drove in the winning run with a single to left. Terry and Mack were the battery for Milwaukee. Ex-Giant James Stafford, allas “Aunt Agnes,” was cordially greeted by his old friends in the stands, and was honored with a floral horseshoe of red and yellow reses, to harmonize with the color of his complexion and his work while he played in New York. In acknowledgment thereof “Chimmy” created the first run for his side all by himself with a fly ball into Holmestead. Probably that stuff of which they make so much in Louisville has quick- ened Mr. Stafford’s pulse.—New York Hgr- The Six-Day Contes Draw We!

The Remarkable Feat of Harry Nel- son PUlsbu: Harry Nelson Pillsbury, the chess cham- pion of the United States, gave; last night in this city, one of the most wonderful ex- hibitions of chess playing ever seen in this country, perhaps in any other country. He essayed to plgy against thirty chess and six checker players simultaneously. The combination of the two was, it is believed, never attempted by any other player, at least to the same extent. Against him were pitted most of the strong players of the District, including F. M. Wright, Dis- trict champion; L. Tharp, F. A. Cooley, Capt. J. P. Walker, E. A. Tibbetts and J. W. Harris of Alexandria. The single player excelled the expectations of his many admirers here, winning twenty-seven out of the thirty chess games, and draw- ing the remaining three. He also won four checker games, lost one and drew one. The players were arranged in the form of a hollow square, extending through the two rooms. Around the players was a large crowd of spectators, among whom were a number of distinguished visitors, including Representatives Shannon, Bodine and Shafro' of the cable match team and Cousins of Iow: the Earl of Westmeath, W. E. Thomas’ game being the last one completed. The following shows the names of the players, the openings, the result, draws being indicated by a half, and the number of moves made: Reault.

The date for the final parade and ex- hibiticn drill of the regiment of High Schoo! Cadets has been changed from June 9 to June 8. The fact that the Marine Band had an engagement for the orginal date made a change necessary, and the Commission- ers have again reqvested the Secretary of the Navy to order out the band to accom- pany the cadets.
