The Washing tons were at their best to-day, pJnyjng every department of the national game like peitoant winners They batted hard and opportunely, and fielded brilliantly, back ing up Anderson's fine pitching in tlte best style of the art Compared with them the Brooklyns were simply outclassed. The 1.C00 spectators were not slow in recognizing Uie excellent iolni of Schmclz's hits and remarkable stops and catches of tlte Senators. They knocked Addison Courtney Gumbert out of the box by as pretty an exhibition of batting as has been seen at Eastern Park this Fenson. Taney Anderson started the fusilade in tlte first, but Gumbert held out until the fourth, when Joyce's three-bagger gave him liis quietus. Daub essayed to stop tlte onslaught of tlte "Washlngtons , but he fared even worn;. His advent was the signal for a" comedy of errors on the part of Brooklyn, which, coupled with some choice hits, piled up five large, juicy runs for tbe Senators, and settled all doubts as to the outcome of the game. Joyce and McGuire batted like fiends, dividing eight of tbe thirteen bit) equally letween them. Joyce made a triple, two doubles, and a sit:gle, white McGulre was ctosc up with two doubles and aB many singles. On the other liand Brooklyn were well scattered except in the fim, and seventh CLEVER FIELD WORK. Selbach'e work in left field was a revela tion, bis haodlhur of difficult flies being remarkably clever, lie certainly played his position IxHter than any fielder seen here this reason. Jack Crooks was very much iu the game, his Mops and throws causing frequent bursts of applauf e. Selly, however, was the pride of the bleachers, who know a good player when they see him, and give him a big send off, no matter on which side he plays. Joyce was iuclined to kick at Umpire Keefe's decisions, but the crowd knows Billy's propensity to scrap and gave him tbe laugh. He was right on one or two occasions, but on the whole treated both aides about equally well. Joyce was fairly out at the plate iu tbe eighth on Selbach's force but he objected. Keverthelebe, Keefc refused to talk to him aud Bill simmered down. IlaaEamer coached in a novel way, alternately kicking up his heels or doing tne double aburae, but he got there fill right. Tbe Washlngtons played snappy, winning hall throughout. Joyce oKned the game with a fast bounder to La Chance and was out, Gumbert covering tlie base. McGuire was robbed of a baee hit by, Shindie's tnag niUcent stop. Selbach fouled lo Grim. Griffin led off for Brooklyn with a drive at Joyce, who fumbled long enough to allow tb runner to reach first. Shindle dropped a safe hit ou t of Selbach's fair reach and Treadway sacrificed. La Chance's drive lmunded off Anderson's bands but Schiebeck made a good stop and throw. Griffin scored on the out. John Anderson's single to center scored Shindle. Daly followed with A base hit butCorcoran's drive bounded off Andersen's knee across the diamond to Hassamer, retiring the side. It was a fluky play and decidedly unusual. CONNECTED WITH THE BALL. "Roaring Bill" Hassamer gauged Gum bert's curves for a drive to left in tlte second, but Anderson captured It. Shindle made a good play on Crooks' scorcher. Boyd rapped out a single to left but was forced at second by Scheibeck. Tlte Washington in flekl Indulged in some sharp playing. After Grim had singled to lert, Schei beck dug Gumberfs scorcher out of the ground and threw to Crooks. The latter passed tte ball, Hassamer completing a pretty double, awl Griffin's grounder was fielded by Crooks. Washington pounded out three runs by clever hitting in the third, and jumped into the lead. After Abbey struck out Ander son singled to left and Joyce followed with a double to right. McGuire's long drive to left for two bases scored Anderson. Joyce tallied on Selbach's out at first. Hassamer dropped another double in left, McGuire crossing the plate. Crooks got libs base on balls. Hassamer was caught betweoo second and third, but got back. on Corcoran's muff. Boyd grounded out toJjtChance. Wtlh two out inBrooklyn'shalf LaChanco was hit with a pitched ball, but was forced at second by Anderson. The Senators scored again in the fourth. Bhcibeck, first 1 up, flicd to Anderson. Abbey biugled to right, but was cuugnt stealing secoud; An derson's base on balls, Joyce'H single, and ilcGulrc's double did the bufcinesi?. Sel bach's long fly to center looked like a homer, but Griffin made a great catcS. Brooklyn scored one on Daly's base on balls, Corcoran's elngle to right, and Gum bert'B long fly to Abbey. GUMBERT GATE IT UP. Daub relieved Gumbert in the Jiftb , but the Senators kept right on tcoring. Has samer was fielded out by Daly. Anderson muffed Crooks fly, and then the fun began. Shindle fumbled Boyd's grounder, and Daub mixed matters up with a wild pitca, Crooks scoring from Eecond. Shindle made another error on Shelbeck's grountler, and Daub made a second wild pitch to keep It company. Abbey singled io right, Boyd tallying. Anderson struck out, but Joyce souked the ball to deep left center for three bases, Shelbeck and Abbey ambling across the rubber. Joyce followed on McGuire's single to left. Sel bach's fly to Grirfln ended the agony. Shindle led otf with a single for Brook lyn, but the next three batsmen succumbed to Anderson's twisters. Both sides were blanked In the sixth, Corcoran being the only man to reach lirst, on his Mingle to left. Three grounders disposed of Wash ington in the seventh. Shindie's single, Trcd way's double and AndTson's three-bagger to left Pont two Brooklyn men homo. Griffin auJ LaChancc had in the meantime filed to Selbach and Slteibeck madea phenomenal catch of Daly's fly back of third. "SCRAPPY BILL'S" FOURTH. Joyce began the eighth with his fourth successive hit, a drive to right center for two babes. Itmight have lwen his thirteenth homo run of the seneon but for Griffin's lucky stop. "Scrappy Bill" should havo scored on McGuire's drive to left for a has'), but he was slow in getting away. Selbach forced him at the plate with a grounder to Shindle. Hassamer and Crooks were fielded out by Daly, turning what promised to bo a big scoriug inning Into a blank. The home team fared no better, however. I Selbach gobbled Corcoran's fly, and Grim beat out u hit to Joyce. Daub took firstou balls, only to be forced at second by Griffin, Joyce and Crooks doing great work. Shindie's long fly dropped into Selbach's net. Boyd struck out as a starter in the ninth, and Corcoran mnde two startling stops of hit by Selbach and Abbey. The Brook lyns were quickly disposed of. Tredway hit to Crooks, but found the ball waiting for him. LaChance beat out a slow bounder to Scheibeck. Flies by Anderson and Daly were captured by Selbach. Brooklyn: AB R. IL PO.A.E.

It "Was Xlp and Took .Right Along "Until the End Buckinghama Pitching a Feature. One of the prettiest all-round exhibitions of amateur baseball playing that has been seen at National Park this season was yes terday's game, in wbich the Nationals of East Washington defeated the Washington Market House team, after a hard fought battle. A good-sized crowd was present and was repaid for its attendance. Both teams were in excellent condition and it would bavc been a hard matter to improve upon either. From the very be ginning the men played the game like veterans, and never permitted an oppor tunity for a brilliant play to go by. In fact the exhibition was marked by bright and snappy fielding. Buckingham, the East Washington twirier, occupied tbe box for the Nationals, and his snake-like curves kept the colored gentlemen in one continual guess. Han diboc held up the other end of the battery, and his catching proved one of the features of the game. Wade, who tossed the sphere for the Market House aggregation, was at bis best and was also a mystery to his opponents. Tbe game was elosely contested through out. First one side would take the lead by a score or so and then tbe other. In tbe seventh inning, when the score stood 4 to 2 against them, the "food suppliers" earned a run, which changed the color of things. The Nationals were retired in one, two, three order in their half of tlte eighth and tbe Market House people received tbe same dose. The "Buckingham lovers" managed to get iu a run in tbeir half and Uungs looked us thousli they were settled and it was the Nationals' victory for sure. But, alas! the Market House tos&ers opened tbe ninth with a marvelousattaclr. on the ball, and their opponents began to look somewhat anx ious. Jefferson smashed out a two-bagger, which was thrown wild to third base and tbe dark first baseman scored. The situation then was a dangerous one and Buckingham realized it. PbiHips was tlte next man up but a foal which Hnndtboe "ate" settled him. The next two hatters. Carter and Dcveans, hit safely and the excitement which prevailed on the bleachers was intense.
