KANSAS CITY. July I. (Special Tele-gram.)-l'p to the seventh Inning Welmer, backed by perfect support, had Omaha at bis mercy today and with the aoor. 4 to 0 it looked like sure victory for the locale. But at this stags Robinson became wild In his throwing to first and two bad per formances in putting the ball there gave the Kidnapers three runs, and from this on the Rourke band were la the running at all times, winning the gam out in the teeth Inning by a score of 4 to B. . Graham -tor Omaha opposed Welmer in the bos and while wild, held the Manning ilea down to alx hits, four of which were Saade by Waldron, whose batting was on. f the features and responsible for all of the Kansas Citjrans' runs. The Omaha twtrler passed eight nen to first, but pulled Vmt of all tight holes, excepting whea .Waldron came to bat, Welmer, while allowing two more hlta, was steadier than his opponent and would have shut out ths visitors but for Robin son's three errors and a dumb play by Shannon, who, in attempting to throw to the plate, bit Welmer on the bead, allow ing a run to come in. The Omahaas made four errora behind Graham, but not en. of xtbem figured in the run-getting. OMAHA. AB. R. H. O. A. E. ... ft Carter. rf.... Gen Ins. cf Bton. If rolan. sa Stewart, lb...
