SLACKS VICTORY HITS THE TALENT The Phillies Easily Defeated the Georgetown Nine. CURRENT SPORTING NEWS Another large crowd witnessed the rac- ing at the Benning track yesterday, the attendance being the largest since the opening day.

Had twirlers on co ms served up balls like Frazer’ and ( they would have beca driven off the but reputation went for everything, it was a hard matter to hit the ball out of the diamond. The two professional twir ers simply lobbed the ball over the plate, but stage fright had seized the opposing bat men, Morgan excepted, of course, and the rales were over their ¢ for the entire ame. Not content with poor stick work the wearers of the blue and gray went lo pieces in the fiel rd in their endeavor: to do good work over-exerted themselves with disastrous results. Poor throws, in- glorious muffs and headless plays followed one another in quick succession, but the Georgetowners need not feel discouraged, as this is the usual outcome when amateurs face professionals for the first time. The Phillies all looked good and fit, their month’s training in the south putting them on edge, and from yesterday's indications will give a good account of themselves from the very beginning. Delehant: Joie and Jimmy Slagle were given 1! full of lot, nid ceptions when going to (he bat first tlme, but the mighty “Del” was the only one to do himself credit, nd he slammed out a screeching double along the right field foul line.

The coilegians tried three twirlers in the box, White, Blewitt and Mackay, the ond named coming off best because of h slow ball. White pitched ball that will win generally with good support, but his speed just suited the visitors, and as a re- sult the fielders were given balls to handle they had never faced before. No true line an be drawn on Mackay. The Phillies were in a hurry to finish the game, and did not try to bat, but to the majority of onlookers it looked as though he was doing good work. Shortstop Moran had another good day, securing two of the four hits credited to Georgetown, one of them being a beauty bright trip to the extreme corner of left field, but he shared with the rest the stigma of falling down in fielding. The Georgetowns’ record on the day was four hits and six errors, while the Phillies rolled up eleven hits and one error. CHAMPIONS COMING. Brookly to Play an Exhibition Game at National Park Monday.

The Eastern League committee appointed to hear from the National League about the admission of Washington and sgaltimore into its organization was to hve met in New York yesterday and definitely de- cide whether the two cities would be taken in, but another postponement was taken, and the probabilities are that the Eastern League will do business this year with last year’s circuit. Manager Barnle of Hartford has given up the Baltimore end of the proposition and returned to last year’s stamping ground at the request of the stockholders of the Hartford club. It was reported in New York last night that the matter will be definitely settled today, but as the National League still insists on its high rental for the grounds in the two cities, the final outcome can be easily seen.
