POLO GROUNDS, NW YORK, May 29.—Sweet and clean, In new suits, the boys from Bunker Hill landed here this afternoon to haul down New York from her high perch. It is a curlous thing that every city in the United States appears to bo jealous of the metropolis. ‘This feeling is more evident in baseball than in any other feature. When New York played at Bos- ton not a voice waa raised to applaud a good play. ‘The followers of Ibsen were not especially enthusiastic over their own team, but Jt was anything to beat New York, ‘As for the Western citles it is a mar- vel if the Glants are able to win © game.
