It had been sncpested that the most fitting way to finish up the business connected with the world's champion games would be to tender the Brown Stocking Club a banquet, and a few St. Louis friends of the Browns have determined to do so.

It is proposed that the banquet tafeo place next Saturday night, and tbe Elk Club quarters have been mentioned as tbe probable place.

The game which won the championship of tbe world for the Eiowns was the most exciting one of the six played. The Chicagos scored a run in the second, the fourth and the tilth inning, while the Browns had goose eggs to their credit in all up to tbe Ightli. In that inning Comiskey broke the ice by crossing the plate, having hitsafe to right, gone to second on Welch's hit to third, to third on a passed hall and home on Foutz's sacrifice. Welch and Bushong then scored on Latham's thive base leit tieid hit. This tied the score.

In the tenth inning the ball w-jnt by Kelly, the Chicago's catcher, and 'Welch, who was on third, came home, winnin? the game, by a score of 4 to 3. There was some discussion as to whether the bail which let in the winning run was a passed hll or a wild pitch. Kelly, himself, was asked aDout it afterwards and said: "I signalled larkson for a low ball on one side and when it came it was high up on the other. It struck my hand as I tried to get it, and I would say it was a passed ball. You can give it to mo if you want to.

Clarkson told lae shat it clipped from his hands. Dividing the Keoeipts. The total receipts for the six games played in St. Louis and Chicago by the Browns and white Stockings amount to From this amount the expenses of the Browns' trip to Chicago and the salaries and expenses of the umpires must be deducted. Then the remainder will be divided bv two, and oue-hulf will be distributed equally among the twelve players on the lirown Stocking elut, each player receiving a little over $500.

The receipts are at present deposited In two banks, the Chicago receipts in a Chicago bank and the St. Louis receipts in a M. Louis bank. Mr. Von der Ahe will write Mr.

Spalding for his drait on both for the amount jointly deposited, and after indorsing the drafts will draw the money from the banks in both cities. The umpires 'receive S100 each and their expenses, ami tuev were paid to-day by Mr. Von der Ahe at the Llndell Hotel. Wine for the Boys. At the conclusion of Saturday's game President Von der Alio was overwhelmed with telegrams from nearly ail parts of the country congratulating him upon the success of the Browns in winning the championship of the world.

The telegrams were characteristic of their senders. One in particular was worthy of note. It was from Mose Fraley at Chicago and read: "Concert of Chicago against solid St. Louis. Give the boys fiitv dollars for wine and 1 will pay same.

Let it be yellow label Cllruot." Thrice Champions. The game yesterday at Sportsman's Park between the Browns and Maroons resulted in another victory for the Browns, which gave them another championship, that of the city of St. Louis. The pitchers were Bovle and Foutz. The score was: Browns Uuns, hits, 6: total bases, errors, 6.

Maroons-Runs, base hits, total, 11; errors, 6. Winners on 'Change. Moses Fraley, who was in Chicago all last week helping the farmerout by bulling wheat, has returned homo. Saturday on the Board of Trade hn offered to bet $100 against 30 eight times that the St. Louis Browns would win the championship series.
