The Senators obtained but one more hit, but they scored two runs to their opponents’ one, and thus made it two out of three with the Brooklyn men. Weyhing and Yeager were the twirlers, and each pitched fine ball, the veteran having a shade the better of it, giving but one pass, while the youngster gave two, one of which developed into a run. Both teams played almost perfect ball, each side being guilty of but one misplay. Two games were to be played, but rain prevented the second, and the Senators left for Philadelphia, vhere they the rest of the week. They may, ver, play the postponed game with the Dodgers at Weehawken Sun- day. ithe> side scored until the fourth ning. when the Senators sent two across the plate.

The “slow town’ newspaper men are buiiding on three straight for the Phillies so as to Hft them into first division. Secretary Muckenfuss of the Louis b has given it out that the Cleveland club will be transferred to the mound city next season. The transfer would be a good thing for base ball, but it will take some shrewd base ball legislation to bring bout the deal. ‘even of the nine Brooklyn players failed to get a hit off of Weyhing yesterd a Five hits were , Jones getting three and LaChance two. Tommy Dowd has pulled himseit ogether under the stimulant that he may be sold to New York this winter and is playing a very fast game. His b g has improved very much of late and he should be able to get into the select .300 class.

GooD FOR din persuading SEASON BASS. al Anglers Have Fine Sport in All the Pools. Angling for bass has been good sport this fall, and the catch, it is stated, has been the largest that has been made for many years. All along the line of the upper Po- tomac river and its several tributaries, as well as down the river, many large bass have been taken. In addition to the black bass many rockfish, or striped bass, have also been caught. This fine sport, anglers think, will continue as long as the water is in good condition and the weather is not too cold. Recently several anglers made some good catches in the vicinity of Sycamore Island. One day one of the colored men employed on the island cagght two fish that weighed about three and a quarter pounds each.

Mr. H. ©. Coburn has landed scores of fish this season, his favorite fishing grounds being between Seneca and Great Falls. Major Sylvester, chief of police, has found bass plentiful enough at the mouth of the Monocacy to attract him there several times. Mr. A. R. Mullowny, assistant dis- trict attorney, has become an expert. He has fished at almost every place between Harper's Ferry and this city, and has a record of more than a dozen for each trip he has made. Deputy Clerk N. C. Harper of the Police Court landed a three and one- quarter-pound fish at Great Falls two weeks ago, besides getting a number of smaller fish. Mr. Jesse Middleton, who, perhaps, does as much, if not more, fishing than any other local angler, spends one day each week in the vicinity of Quantico. He is never satisfied unless he returns with more than a dozen good-sized bass. Fishing is exceptionally good about the vicinity of Great Falls just now, and an- glers seldom experience any difficuity in getting live bait from the locktenders. Athletes From Baltimore.
