TO TRY the Washington Chess Club last Saturday evening, with thirteen entries, viz: Mesrs. P. O'Farrell, A. B. Dougias, F. M. Tucker, W. E. Thomas, W. H. Smith, J. W. Har- ris, John Prender, Wm. Finn, E. A. Tib- betts, J. E. R. Ray, A. E. Crofts, J. P. Campbell and John D. Elwell. The draw- ing for pairs in the first round resulted as follows: Prender vs. Harris, Elwell vs. Smith, Crofts vs. O'Farrell, Tucker vs. Finn, Campbell vs. Ray, Thomas vs. Doug- las; Tibbetts, bye. The first game finished was between Messrs. Prender and Harris. Mr. Prender played a guioco piano. The position be- came complicated, and he lost a plece on his twenty-first move, and surrendered af- ter forty-six moves. The game between Elwell and Smith was a queen’s gambit, declined by the latter in an irregular man- ner. Mr. Smith lost a piece on his ninth move, but he made a gallant fight there- after, and prolonged the game seventy-four moves before he called enough. Wednesday evening Messrs. Finn tried conclusions. Mr. Finn had a Winning advantage, but threw it away. Then it looked like a win for Mr. Tucker, | who also failed to improve his opportuni- ties. The game finally resulted in a draw. Mr. Ray played a French defense against Cempbell. The game left the books after the first couple of moves and proceeded eventy until Mr. Campbell lost a pawn on his seventeenth move by an oversight. The advantage thus gained Mr. Ray main- | tained throughout, and won in sixty-two roves. Mr. Douglas subsequently withdrew from the tourney, which will require a 1eschedul- ing of the remaining rounds. Messrs. Crofts and O'Farrell have not yet played their game. In the match between Messrs. P. O'Far- rell and W. A. Gwyer, jr., Mr. O'Farrell has added three games to his score, while Mr. Gwyer has not won a game during the past week. The present score is: O'Farrell, 3; Gwyer, 1.

Louisville. 44 [200 Today’s Baltimore Sun has the following to say of yesterday’s Baltimore-Washing- ton game: Up to the Orioles’ last inning yesterday's game seemed like a certain defeat for the Baltimores, but with their old-time spirit they fought to the end, and in old-fash- foned Oriole style batted out victory just in the nick of time. Jennings, who was nearly killed in New York by being hit in the head by one of Rusie’s catapult inshoots, insisted upon playing yesterday. He remarked to Kel- ley, facetiously, before the game: “You are getting too popular, Joe. I must get in and get some of that myself.” Jen- nings’ nerve and loyalty to the club was fully appreciated by the crowd, and he was cheered heartily. Doyle was also given an ovation when he again took his place cn first base, with his still disfigured eye, and the crowd was disposed to cheer every man on the team. : Both sides had to contend against good pitching yesterday. Jerry Nops was in fine form, and had he been supported perfectly not a run would have been made on him. Errors and other bad fielding gave the vis- {tors all their three runs in the fifth inn- ing, and the run in the sixth was the re- sult of thre. errors bunched in that inning. “Silver” King pitched effectively up to the eighth inning, when he seemed to get rattled a little and weakened perceptibly. The fielding of the champions was a mix- ture of much that “was excellent with much that was just 'the opposite. Reitz, old, reliable “Pepper,” was not at his best by any means, and; there were others. Reitz, however, did some very good play- ing, as well as bad,,and Jennings made some great play§. McGraw had a busy day at third, and plafed with more of his old-time ginger ahd covered more ground than he has at any other time this season. He caught a nurfiber of hot liners, com- pleting a pretty ‘double play on one of them, and made “a number of other fine plays. ome The visitors fidfded in fine style and batted well. Wrigley’s error in the eighth inning, however, was‘tery costly, and was really what enabled ‘the Orioles to win when they did. In the eighth the Oribles went in and won the game, with 4 ruh ‘to spare. McGraw got a base on’ balls, “and the crowd was surprised and delighted to see the regular old Oriole hit-and-rirr ‘trick played by Mc- Graw and Keeler. It was good for sore eyes and sore base ball hearts. Jennings was struck by a pitched ball, this time in the short ribs, filling the corners, with none out. Kelley hit to DeMontreville, but Wrig- ley muffed his throw and Jennings was safe, McGraw and Keeler scoring. Stenzel filed to Reilly. Doyle singled to center and Jennings scored. Kelley and Doyle moved up on Reitz’s out, ‘and both scored on Bow- erman’s third successive hit. BALTIMORE. WASHINGTON. R.H.O.A.F.

The Senators passed through Washing- ton last evening on their way west and picked up Johnny O'Brien, whose finger is getting along nicely. Tucker is almost all right, and both these players will be in the game at Chicago tomorrow. McJames will probably pitch. Mr. Earl Wagner has secured Albert Wagner, the young infielder of the Toron- tos, as a Senatorial utility. Wagner can play almost anywhere, and, besides playing well, is a good sticker. The game scheduled for New York yes- terday between the Giants and Bostons was postponed on account of rain. The rain was preceded by a heavy thunder storm, dugng which the flag pole on the club house at the Polo grounds was struck by lightning. Clark, the first baseman for New York, was slightly burned on the thigh, while Holmes got a shock on one of his feet. The game at Chicago tomorrow will be reproduced at Kernan’s Theater. The Shamrocks defeated the Altons yes- terday at the grounds near Lincoln Park by the score of 13 to 10. Wolf of the Shamrocks struck out eleven men. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing team, the champions of the Deparimental League, and the Shamrocks, the champions of the District League, will meet for the first time at National Park next Saturday. Both teams have been strengthened, an as a great rivalry exists between thes teams, an exciting contest can be looked for. “Yale” Murphy, the “Midget,” who used to play the infleld for New York under John Ward, has been asked to sign a Bos- ton contract. Herman Long has a bad hand. Catcher Fred Lake, formerly of the Kan- sas City club, revorted for duty to Capt. Duffy of the Boston Base Ball Club ye terday afternoon. The price paid for Lake was not stated. Head-Senator Brown wore his glove while batting and running bases. It is doubtful if there is another player In the league who does not discard the covering when he leaves the field._Baltimore News. Brown ts guarding his sore hand, which has not fully healed. If President Young doesn't keep careful tab he will get some of the Clarks in the league mixed up in the matter of aver- ages. New York has a pitcher named Clarke and a first baseman named Clark; Baltimore has a catcher named Clark; Louisville has a left fielder named Clarke, and Cleveland has a pitcher named Clarke —five in all. The Atlantic League race is a hot and pretty ore. Lancaster is now leading, with @ percentage of .621. Norfolk 1s fourth, with .509, and Richmond seventh, with .464. There are fewer than 100 percentage points beween Newark, which ts second, and Richmond, or, in other words, a differ- ence of six games would put Richmond ahead of Newark. Reading is the only team that seems outclassed. It is at the tail end, more than 100 points behind Rich- mond. The clubs now stand: Lancaster, Newark, Paterson, Norfolk, Hartford Ath- letics, Richmond, Reading, but frequent changes are the rule, owing to the close- ness cf the rave. When Al Maul was grabbed by Ned Hanlon Earle Wagner looked Iike a liv- ing interrogation point. The Senatorial mogul had kept Maul in camphor for near- ly two years, while the little birds warbled, “Waiting, Only Waiting.” The Balti- Morean reach was only a snatch in the dark. J. Earle’s suspicions were unfound- ed. Maul lost the only game in which he has officiated, and it looks as if the Beau Brummel of the diamond had a ticket in his clothes fcr Hasbeenville.—Cincinnati Post. As told in the sporting extra of The News yesterday, Maul returned to town yesterday morning, with his arm in better shape than ever ant confident that it will pitch winning ball by the time the Orioles return from the west. It is not fair to Maul to say he lost the only game in which he officiated fcr Baltimore. He didn’t, for “there were others” in that game.—Baiti- more News. Dinkka Wins Duchess of York Stake. LONDON, July 3.—The Lorillard-Beres- ford stables’ bay colt Diakka, four-year- old, won the Duchess of York stakes, a handicap of 1,500 sovereigns, at the Hurst Park summer meeting today. ‘There were nine starters, including Au- gust Belmont’s chestnut horse Keenan, which was the favorite, and finished séc- ond in the race for the Manchester cup on June 11, and C. Hibbert’s four-year-old brown gelding Mack Briggs. The distance was one mile. Result of Bouts at ’Frinco. SAN FRANCISCO, July 3.—Results of last night's fights as follows: Between Harry Woods of San Francisco and Bob Thompson of Salt Lake was de- clared a draw at the end of the fifteenth round. In the second fight Lawler of San Francisco had the better of Conway of Chicago all the way through, and was awarded decision in the tenth round. In the third contest Henry Baker of Chi- cago. knocked out Miller in the eighth round. Dobbs Bests Fernes at Hartford. HARTFORD, Conn., July 3.—Bobby Dobbs of Minneapolis defeated Jim Fernes of Kanses City in eight rounds before the Charter Oak Athletic Club at the Hartford Opera House last night.

In addition to the regular races there are two side attractions on the program. One will be a match race for the championship of the War Department, in which E. 8. Ford of the ordnance division and J. A. McColl of the record and pension division will be the contestants, the distance being one mile. This match race is creating con- oe interest in the big stone build- ing. Another race will be the multicycle event, in which there will be @ single, two tan- dems and a triplet. The distance will be one mile. A. C. Moran is booked to ride the single; Greer, Smith and Wilson they triple, while Schade and Halstead will ride one tandem and Ronsaville and Gause an- other. Another race which will prove of in- terest, provided the sanction of the racing board can be obtained, will be the race for the champicnship of Alexandria. A num- ber of the racers of Alexandria have been anxious to hold a race of their own for the championship of the town, and a special sanction is necessary to hold the meet in another division, Alexandria having no race track of its own.
