INDIANS TANGLE WITH HARD-HITTING MILLERS Tribes Opens New Series After Halving Twin Bill at St. Paul Sunday —Saints Stall. Bu Times Special MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 24.-—The Indians today invaded Minneapolis for the last time this season and they will be here four days to do battle with Mike Kelly’s hard-swatting Millers. The lloosiers are a strong drawing card in this city and the Tribe-Miller contests are expected to supply the usual exciting moments for the fans.

The Indians split even at St. Paul Sunday, winning, 3 to 2, in ten innings behind Carmen Hill and then losing, 3 to 2, in six innings when the Saints stalled in the seventh after Indianapolis had gained a lead. ManagJi Bush pleaded with the two joh' umpires, Finneran and Freeman, in an effort to force the Saints to play ball, but the umpires permitted the Allen aggregation to make a farce out of the game. Manager Allen gets away with “murder” in this league and many St. Paul fans decided that Finneran and Freeman are what Ownie Bush said they were some time ago—a couple of clowns. Dutch Henry hurled the second fracas for the Tribesmen Sunday and was the victim of plenty of tough luck. The Saints won the Saturday tilt, 4 to 3, in ten innings off Maun when Mollwitz, a weak hitter, crashed a home run over the short left-field fence.

Fitz pitched one of the Sunday struggles with the Pirates and did a good job, though Pittsburgh won, 3 to 2. The Giants failed to hit with men on bases. Fitz held the Pirates to seven hits in eight innings and got one safety himself. He dropped out for a pinch hitter in the eighth.

All National League attendance records were broken for a short series by a Saturday crowd of 56,000, and a monster outpouring of 58,000 Sunday. Police officials estimated that at least 15,000 were turned away from the gates on the two days. In their game stand agaJnst the Giants, fighting in the most important series of the season, the Pirates have shown themselves almost without a weakness.
