CHIPPEWA INDIANS TO RETURN HERE

Will Be Here Tuesday, July 28th— Another Fine Game and Big Crowd Expected to Attend. The Chippewa Indian ball team is to return here for another game with the Athletics on Tuesday, July 28th- These two teams put up a classy exhibition last Thursday Snd the Redskins will-attempt to even matters up. The team played at Valparaiso Friday and are playing a series of three games* with the American Giants, the fdst negro nine, in Chicago. They will return here- Monday evening. The rumor has been going around that the Indians let the Athletics win in order to get a return game and some bets. The advance agent had left the team without notice and Mr. Amtz, tTie owner' of the team, did not know how far ahead they were booked until they ' reached Valparaiso and at no time Was it certain that the Chippewas would return. Late Friday afternoon a telegram came saying they, would be’back Tuesday. It is certainly not plausible that the Indians would simply hand, the Athletics, a game without knowing whether or not they would be back. Mr. Amtz will probably be on the mound for the Braves and will be opposed by Clark.:*'/' \ This game is expected to draw a record attendance, as the game was witnessed Thursday by a large crowd, who surely like to see the kind of hall played by the home nine on that day.
