Abercromble, who only lasted three innings against Greensboro yesterday, was sent In the box again and pitched a master ly game. He was opposed by McGiM, who also deserved to win but Spartan bt rg hud all the luck. KactTman allowed four hits, but Kit- , ter for the locals, hit one to far-away . centre for ;i homer and scored the only i run of the game. Snedden also hit aj long one. but the fist fielding hy Hit-k-ari and Martin prevented hlni stretching it Into a home run.

The old fellows gave us a lively tussle. That bunches us together a little better. The hoodoo appears to have been snapped. Spartanburg will have to be reck oned with. Humphrey's strong right arm turn ed the trick. Only nine scores were made In the entire circuit yesterday. Tony Walters was not allowed to hold no-hit honors for long. The situation was certainly pale around the gills In the ninth Inning. Manager Collins will probably give Keis a chance at the paters this after- Cbicasro, Mar 11. Chicago and Washing-ton battled for II Innings to day and the game was called on ac count of darkness with the score l to In the seventeenth Inning, the lo cals had met on second and third with one out. Manager Sullivan then took himself out and sent in Welday, a left-hand hitter. When. Cantlllon saw this move he sent Hughea, then pitching;, to Hfht field and sent in Gray, a left-handed pitcher. Sullivan countered by taking out Welday af ter Gray had .pitched one ball to him. Then Cantlllon tried to withdraw Gray and send Hushes back against Ow ens, a right-hand hitter. Accord ing to the new rule, it was up to Gray to finish pitching- to the man who was then batting or give a paas. After some heated argument the umpires forced Gray to continue pitching; to Owens. He did and pass ed him. Tannehill was the next man up and Hughes returned to the box, while Ganley went to right field. Tannehill hit to Huihes and. Altlxer was forced at the plate. White end ed the chances with a grounder to Delehanty. Score: R. H. E.
