VVILDNESS OF LUQUE AND TIMELY BLOWS CAUSE REDS' DEFEAT

CINCINNATI, May 11. Luque displayed his usual wildness. mixed In with several timely blows, and the Braves trimmed the Reds here Wednesday afternoon by the score of 9 to 3. Dana Fillingln was in rare form, and the batters of the Reds could do nothing with his slants with men on the paths. The big Boston hurler was in excellent form, and several times the Reds loaded the bases only to have him fan the next batter, without any damage being done. The Reds got away to a good start, scoring two runs in the third, only to see it tied up in the fourth, and lose it in the fifth. Luque started out good and did not allow a man to reach first base in the first three Innings, but blew up in the fourth and two runs came over. He was hit bard from then on to the seventh, when he was taken from the box after five runs had been scored. Hank Gowdy led the attack for the Braves with a double and two singles, while Southworth hit a homer into right field, the ball bouncing into the bleachers. Jake Daubert's single in the third inning makes 18 consecutive games in which the Red's captain has hit safely. Jake's hit scored the first run for the Reds. The score: '

Yesterday's Games

"You admit you were speeding?" "Yes, your honor." "A frank confession goes a long way

The second game in the Commercial league resulted in a victory for the vnTnoa rinirv team over the Maher

Meats by the score of 7 to 6, at Exhibition park Wednesday afternoon. Both teams hit the ball hard and only the soggy condition of the field kept the scoring down. Nicodemus, hurling for the Dairymen, was touched for an even dozen blows but they did not come with men on the bases when hits meant runs. The last inning saw him in a bad hole with two men on base and two nown and Knott up to bat. Mike

had connected eafely his other three times to bat, but Nick got him on the first ball 'pitched with a tap to HImes at short. A safe hit at this time would have put the Meats one run to the

good. . .

c The Himes crew collected, iu nits off the delivery of Maher, who was working for the Meats. Errors by his teammates in the first inning paved the way for the Dairymen to score four runs in the first frame. They failed to score again uutil the fifth when Jhey scored three runs on some hard, clean hitting. The Meats scored one run in the fj second and tied up the count in the .If third, when they scored three- runs, which thev should not have had. In

the fifth they went into tho lead by scoring two runs, but Maher failed to

hold th Dairymen safe in the filth frame. Thursday night the Bakers will play the Item. The score:. Mahers 013 2006 12 3 Himes 400 03x 7 10 5 Maher and D. Byrkett; Nicodemus and Thornburg.

been given up for Busy American as Trainer Thompson said he was banking "on the miracle." Light Workout. Morvich will take a light workout this morning, just a gallop around to limber up, and then retire to his closely guarded quarters. Tomorrow he will get a stiff workout at perhaps a half mile and then Saturday he will get the Derby distance and perhaps the wreath of roses and all it means. At least that is what his proud owner, Benjamin Block, who has been on hand since the arrival of the unbeaten

It was made possible for the Eagles to obtain this team for the two ganxas through the Veterans of Foreign Wars state, conversion which is being held here this week-end. The game Saturday will be held as part of the athletic program of the convention. The Indianopolis team will remain over for another game Sunday. The capital city team is no doubt a fast organization as they have their team built up around several minor league players and one conference player. The team carries four first rat hurlers. Their star'hurler is Clever.

CHICAGO, May 11. The

how Chicago missed becoming a member of the American Association in 1901 with the late Captain Anson as manager, was revealed today during a fanning bee with Thomas J. Hickey, president of the organization. "Our organization was not knocking at the door of Chicago," Mr. Hickey said. "We already had one foot across the threshold, having obtained an option on the piece of ground where stands the present Chicago National League ball park. Arrangements for financing the club here, had been made with Bob Burke, who at that time was city oil inspector, and his associates Will Chase of Des Moines, la., Mr. Hickey said. Everything had been agreed upon and a "forfeit had been placed in Mr. Hickey's hands by Mr. Chase. On the morning of the big meeting, Anson and Mr. Chase came to Hickey's office with a note from the oil inspector, stating that he would have to abandon the plan. Mr. Hickey told Burke plans had gone too far to be abandoned, but Mr. Burke refused to go on. There was nobody else available to take Mr. Burke's place in the venture, and the association abandoned its Chicago invasion.
