Alfred and William C’rovatt, Ho tv on and Waiker are now leading the team in hitting. They are all hitting almve Hie 300 gait. Walker yesterday struck out just sixteen of the visitors. This is one of the best records ever made by a pitcher, ametcur or professional, lie sides that he did not allow a man to walk or never hit a batsman, and secured a hit for him-elf, anti rendered four assists. Hut tew pitchers make such a record n a game. O’Connor was a: short again yester day and will probably play that !*e sition the season, Alfred Crovatt play ing second. O’Connor is easily one of best throwers on the team and lie plays short in great style. Bowen’s home run was a beauty, ife is the tir.-t. of the Pilots to have such a hit recorded on the score card. And the hit came at such an opportune time, TO HOLD A MEETING IN BRUNSWICK TO DISCUSS HIGH RATES No Bars For Chicago.
