NEWBERRY WINS, BUT CLINTON DOESN'T LOSE i Newberry Robbed of Game in Ninth ' Inning by Decision of Umpire Miller. (By Bill Ewart.) A highly exciting and interesting game, one which bad the fans sitting on the edge of their seats throughout, was transformed into a farce comedy by a r.)tten ninth inning decision by Umpire Miller, of Clinton, said decis ion being one of the rankest pieces of highway robbery ever committed on any ball ground, delibertly calling Mayze safe at the initial bag, after Boozer, by a great stop, heaved to Wright, killing his man by fully three feet, allowing Clinton the trying score, which our lads were unable to over come in the next round. The game was not free from errors or bum plays, far be it from such. It was nevertheless good to look at, furnishing many exciting moments, both teams having the bases occupied at times when a hit would have broke it up. Eidson, though he weakened some-! what in the 8th and 9th, twirled a steady game, and when it is remem bered that he .was working under a great handicap in the shape of Um pire Miller, who missed strike after strike, double praise must be given him. The most noLqble work he dis played was the way in which he out guessed Yuller, the Clinton slugger. On three occasions the big second baseman had the opportunity to drive in runs, and each time he failed utter ly-thanks to the masterly tossing of our pitcher. Nor must the great fielding of Johnson's men be overlook ed. They surely put up a nifty article of goods, and the three errors charg ed against them were all excusable, as they were extra hard chances. Bozer's .fielding and Smeltzer's bat ting were the best offerings in the limelight. The box score is submit ted below. It fails to disclose Mr. Miller's (umpire) raw decisions, and should show a 1 to 0 victory for New berry: Niewberry.
