SPORTING RESUME.

(By B. B. Bug.)

Yesterday’s Results. National League. Chicago 9 Brooklyn 3 New York 5-7 Cincinnati 4-5 Philadelphia 4 St Louis 3 Pittsburg 1 Boston 0 American League. Chicago 2 New York 1 St. Louis 2 Boston 1 Washington 6 Detroit 3 Although the tailend Browns were only able to gather 3 hits from O’Brien, they gave the Red Sox a beating of 2 to 1. Hendrix, of Pittsburg, and Brown, of Boston, hooked up in a slab duel allowing but three hits apiece, the former emerging victorious in a 1 to 0 score. i.’ Daniels, swatting outfielder of the Yanks, gathered four safeties in as many trips to the plate yesterday. Ty Cobb, of universal fame in bug circles, retained his title as chief pilferer, when he stole the home plate yesterday in Detroit’s game with Washington. Shanks stepped into one of Mullen’s fast benders and was carried unconscious from the field. Cal chalked up another victory for the White Hose when he boosted the pill into the left field bleachers for a complete circuit. ■ Marsans batted a thousand yesterday, one of his clouts being one of the coveted four timers. Rube Marquarde, premier Giant twirler, was fined $25 for pitching one inning for an amateur team in New York. Campbell, of the Buccaneers, gathered two of his teams three safe drives.

Hugh Jennings has changed his mind and says that the bunting will again float in old Philadelphia. Slim Sallee, lanky side wheeler of the Cardinals, out-pitched Alexander but lost his game on a balk, caused by Manager Roger Bresnahan’s loud talk on the coaching lines. The Giants copped a brace of easy ones from the slipping Reds. Ray Bronson, Hoosier welter, suffered concussion of the brain as the result of an automobile accident near Noblesville. One-Round Hogan defeated Tommy McFarland after 15 rounds of strenuous milling in Frisco last night. Comisky purchased shortstop Johnson from Dubuque, paying $2,500 for him.
