Loula. Chicago at Cincinnati. (N.NTIONAL.) PHILADELPHIA, April 14 weakening of Willla in the sixth Inning and the apparent batting streak developed by the home team gave the victory over Boston, In the opening of the National league season in thlis city, by the score of 6 to 2 this afternoon. The game it.self was all that could be expected under the climatic conditions, following a miniature snow storm in the morning, all of which made baseball anything but a thing of pleasure for either players or spectators. In spite of this 5179 people turned out to the opening game, one of the spectacular features of which was the presentation of a loving cup to the new manager, Hugh Duffy, by his Boston friends.

Tie Game Up to Sixth Duffy has, to all appearances, made good In his n(iw cap.aclty, as was shown by the ginger infused Into the game by the Phillies. The score stood one to one up to the sixth, when two singles, between which were sandwiched a two-bagger and a bad wild throw by Delehanty, netted the Phillies three runs. Willis was touched up for two safe hits in each of the seventh and eighth inning.s, one run resiiltlng in each. With the exception of Ten fumble in the third, which gave the Phillies their first run, and disastrous wild throw In the sixth, the fielding of the Bostonians was sharp and snappy. Boston's first run was made in the very first inning.

Cannell bunted safely out of reach, but was nailed trying to steal. Tenney singled to right, stole second and came home on drive to left field. Thi.s ended the session, Cooley striking out, and Abbaticchlo being retired on a short one to Hulswltt. Only four hits figured between that and the eighth inning, when Delehanty scored after being given tho only free pas.s to first Lssued by Duggle- b.v, who was in excellent shape. base on balls, coming, as it did, after strikeout was followed by singles by Cooley and ticchlo, and Raymer and Stanley went out on easy flies.

The runs were made in the third, sixth, seventh and eighth. With two out and Dooln on first in the third, Tenney let an ugly bounder from Thomas go over his head, scoring Doom. In the sixth Wolverton singled, and to third on two-bagger by Titus, both scoring on wild throw on grounder. Another safe hit by Douglass brought home Barry. Good Infield work retired the next three men In order.

Thomas scored In the seventh on a drive to right field, followed by hit, which he tried to stretch into a two-bagger, but failed, and long fly to Cannell. The final run in the eighth was secured by Douglass on out, ticchlo to Tenney, and timely single to right. Some of the features of the game were; apparently safe drive to left, which looked safe by a couple of feet, and yet was declared foul; the brilliant fielding of Barry and Duggleby, and the fact that Raymer went out on files every time he came to bat, on three of the four occasions to Barry in left field.

NEW YORK, April thousand fans saw the Boston world beator.s play mi.serable bitll at American League Park this afternoon, and those 15,000 shivering fans warmed themselves at times by cheering the home team on to Iholr first victory of 1904, the champions going down and out, 8 to 2.

It was a runaway victory for New York, few of the big crowd present took the result to uiean anything else but th.at New outclasses Boston and that the locals will have no trouble in winning the American league pennant. Jimmy Coiilns and every man on his team are the moat disgusted persons in Gotham tonight, and after the game they put up this afternoon It was little wonder they went to cover. Collins had no excuses to make, and would not even blame the weather. Weather Cold and Raw The day more suitable for football than baseball, and a cold wind blew across the field throughout the game. was no fault of the said Collins.

w.as all our own fault. What happened to the boys. Including myself, I explain. Such is baseball. can never tell what Is going to happen.

I am sorry for tho bad but one game be hard to make up. Tomorrow Dineen will probably pitch, and the New Yorkers feel so gay tomorrow No matter how hard they tried, it Is doubtful If the Collins team could play poorer ball than did today. It was the first Bo.ston-Plttsburg game over again. At the drop of the bat the Bostons went 100 feet Into the air, and they never came down. To make matters worse.

Chesbro pitched much better ball than did Young, and the New Yorks backed up Chesbro in faultless fashion. Boston Played Poor Ball Think of Cy Young making a wild thro-w to Lachance, stood less than 30 feet away; think of Collins dropping a high fly and making a wild throw, to first; think of Dougherty and Stahl' letting a fly drop between them, and think of Lachance making two w'retched throws across the diamond. Such misplays as these practically gave New Y'ork a five-run lead in tho opening inning, a lead that Boston never even challenged. home run w-as fairly earned, it being a long drive to right field; hut Parent was able to make the circuit because Fultz took a long chance to come In and get the ball on the fly. Fultz lost, the ball rolled between his legs, and Parent around with ease.

After the first inning Boston did some fielding and a little hitting and sleeping. In the sixth Collins was on first with one out. Stahl filed to McGuire, and Collins, thinking two were out, down to second, and McGuire shot the ball to first for an easy double play.

Chesbro was almost invincible. Collins cracked out two sharp singles over second base and home run drive went over the embankment and Is still rolling. home run under ordinary circumstances w'ould count for only onei base. Dougherty and Crlger each hit for two bases. These six hits were the best Boston could do against Chesebro, and six hits never count for much when they are scattered In as many innings.

Tame fielding chance.s marked the game, and the only Boston player to shine was George Lachance, who saved Collins another wild throw by leaping Into the air and getting the ball with one hand on grounder to Collins for the final New York out. It was a beautiful piece of work, and was given a good hand. New fielding was also tame. The balls bounded for the Inflelders, although Fultz and Keeler in the outfield enthused the crowd. Keeler made one fast running catch and Fultz covered lots of ground and judged the Boston batsman to perfection.

Prominent New Yorkers Attended A decided change of feeling is noticeable in the attitude of the New York baseball public towards the American league, and that Griffith has a strong aggregation all concede. What Is helping tho Griffith team more than anything else is tho persistent refusal of John T. Brush to allow the Nationals to meet the Outside of the cold weather and poor playing opening will long be remembered. The ball park has been vastlv Improved since last season. Everyone that amounts to anything In New York was present.

American flags were given to all as souvenirs, and over the grand stand floated the flags of every nation In the world. Just before the first ball was pitched the military band struck up the Spangled and all stood un- covcrcdi. Former District Attorney Olcott threw out the ball from the stand, and Frank and big Bill Dovery attracted no little attention. Boston Rooters Faded Away Farrell wa.s Jubilant over tho size of the crowd and the article of ball played by New York, and predicted that his team would outdraw tho local Nationals. Over 1(X) Boston rooter.s were scattered through the stand.

As tho Collins te.am trotted Into the field the Boston rooters eheered, but after the first Inning not a man from Boston could be found. Despite the cold weather encountered in Buffalo and here, the Collins team Is in perfect shape, and bad start was due solely to a bad attack of stage fright and pitching. After Dnughtery went out in the first, Conroy to (janzel, Collins hit safely to centre, Stahl fanned and Freeman filed to McGuire. Then came the trouble. Conroy met the first ball pitched for a thne-baso drive to right, Freeman not playing the ball too well.

P''ultz g.avo Young an easy grounder. With minutes to spare Young tho ball 10 feet over head, Conroy scoring and Fultz racing to third. Before Lachance could pick up the ball Fultz bad rounded second, and then to rub It In Lachance threw poorly to Collins. Keeler sent out a fly to left. Dougherty thought Stahl was going to catch it and absurdly allowed the ball to drop safe, Fultz scoring and Keeler going to second.

Elberfleld was thrown out nt first by Ferris, and Anderson hit to left for two ba.ses. Williams followed with a single to right. Ferris and Criger Struck Out Ganzel was thrown out at first by Criger and WHllams attempted to reach third, which he did on second poor throw across. Before Collins could recover the ball Williams scored. McGuire ended the agony by flying to Parrmt.

Parent drew a base on balls in the second, but was forced at second by T.a- chance, Elberfeld making a pretty play after the ball, caromed off foot. Fenis and Criger struck out. Chesbro was loudly applauded for the strikeouts, but before the noise subsided It began again, for Chesbro had out a clean home run to right field. The next three men went out in order. In third Young, Dougherty and Stahl went out on fly balls, Collins sandwiching In with his single.

Elberfeld opened on Young In the third with' a single and Anderson was safe on misjudgment of his high fly. Williams sacrificed, Criger to Lachance, Elberfeld dashing for home on tho out, only to be nailed by good throw and quick work getting back to the plate. Anderson scored on single and McGuire struck out. Collins Caught Napping In the fourth and fifth Boston went out in order. Chesbro again delighted the crowd by opening the fourth with a.two- bagger.

He went to third on sacrifice. Fultz went out to Lachance and Keeler hit to Collins, who threw low to Lachance, Keeler getting safe and Chesbro scoring. In sixth Dougherty began with a two-base hit. Collins hit to Elberfeld and Dougherty was run down between second and third. Stahl fouled to McGuire, and either Collins or Lachance, who was coaching, or both, were asleep, for Collins walked down to socondjfand McGuire threw to Ganzel for an double pl.ay.

In the seventh Freeman began with a homo run, the next three batsmen going out in order. Criger began the eighth with a double, but Young filed to Keeler, Dougherty was out, Chesbro to Ganzel, and Collins filed to Fultz. Young Woke Up Too Late In the ninth Stahl filed to McGuire and Freeman did the same to Fultz. Parent hit to centre for a run home, the ball getting by Fultz, and Lachance ended tho game with an easy out to Ganzel. Young got his bearings In the latter part of the game.

In the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth innings single in the seventh was the only New Y'ork man to reach first base. Ban new umpires, Dwyer and Carpenter, had rather an easy time and not a kick was heard. Hughes will pitch against his old teammates either Friday or Saturday. Hughes looks in splendid condition and he is confident of wining his game. The score: NEW YORK.

ARMENIAN WRESTLER WILL MEET TURK TOMORROW An effort is being made to revive wrestling In this city, flr.st bout in a series will be held at the Dudley Street Opera House on Saturday evening, between Petro Savor, the and John Tamouran, a giant Syrian. For months there has been a strong rivalry between the pair, and after several attempts the match was finally made.
