double by Miller and a one-base blow
by McCarthy gave Harrisburg one in
the fifth.

rific clout over tho left Held wall, giv
ing Harrisburg their seventh run.
Trenton was blanked until the eighth,
when a batting rally netted three runs,
a single by Hammond and doubles by
Meyer, Johnson and Foster doing the
trick. Two one-timers and'an error
by Johnson sent a Harrisburg runner
ogver in the ninth. ,
In the second game Keyes greeted
the Tiger hurler by knocking the first
ball pitched over the left field fence
for a home run. In the second Inning
Whalen was hit by a pitched ball, took
second on McCarthy's single, went to
third on Maurer's error and scored on
a one-base smash by Keyes. Trenton
counted one in the second. Lee
doubled, was advanced to third on a
sacrifice by Maurer and scored on
Smith's one-base smash.

Kraft, the baseball player whose re
fusal to go to Nashville almost caus
ed a strike of major league ball play
ers, left Newark last night to join the
Neward team in Providence and will
in all probability be in the game to
day. The strike was avoided yesterday
when Charles H. Ebbets of the Brook
lyn team paid the Nashville club $2,-
500 for its claim to Kraft.
"I am glad the case has been set
tled," Kraft said just before his de
parture, "and 1 will try to show the
fraternity members that I appreciate
what has been done for me and also
to Mr. Ebbets for his part in settling
the affair."
Kraft has been in Newark for about
two months. He was sent over by
Charles H. Ebbets to bolster up first
base for the Indians. He played the
position well and was improving in
his work when he was ordered out.
In fact, In Ills last game, which was
against Baltimore, he won the contest
by a home run with the bases full.

ex-Ephrata, third base; Clay, right

mer Canadian Leaguer, an outfielder;

fielder, now at Niagara Falls, and
several others.

ed with the Clarion, Pa., independent
team and Doty hooked up with John
sonburg. Dundon and Owens, who

bag by saying the three men had se
