The Republic Iron and Steel nine of the Industrial League blanked the Ball Brothers team, 3 to 0, yesterday on the North Walnut Park diamond. The glassmakers failed to hit and were let down with only three hits by Belnap, who pitched for the Republic.

The first tally of the Republic team came in the first inning when Mahoney, who reached first on a fielder's choice, succeeded in scoring on a double by his brother, W. Mahoney. In the sixth inning they again rallied, this time scoring twice. With two men down, Campbell and Dibble both singled and were scored when Hobart swatted out a triple.

The score:

Ball Brothers.

Y. M. C. A. Boys Lose.

The Y. M. C. A. team was forced to bow in a 7 to 0 defeat before the onslaught of the fast Silver Plate team, bringing them down to a tie with the Hemingray nine for first honors of the league. The defeat of the Y team upset the dope, as it is touted as being the fastest team in the league. The game was played on the McCulloch Park diamond.

The Silver Plate team was strengthened last week by the addition of sev­eral of the fastest players in the city and this fact, coupled with heavy hit­ting. won the game.

Every Little Bit Helped.

Twenty hits, coupled with errors, made by their opponents, the Tent and Awning nine, aided the Hemingray team to win yesterday's game, 25 to 6. The Tent and Awning team scored five runs in the last half of the ninth and one run in the fourth inning. The fifth inning was the only frame in which the victors failed to score a run.
