New York and St. Louis split even In a double-header here today, the visitors winning the llrst game, 4 to 2,. and New York the second, 3 to 2. St. Louis hit Fromme hard In the first game, while Harmon held Now York to seven hits. Three .runs In the sixth Inning, on live singles with orrors by Meyers and Snodgrass, gave the visitors enough to Vln. In the fifth Inning Wlngo tried to steal third while Evans occupied that bag. The second game was a tight pitchers' battle between Demaree and Marquard on one side and Sallee on the other. i New York scored two runs In the third on a triple and two singles, and St Tku1s tied the score In the seventh on a triple, a pass and a single. New York won the game In the ninth tnnlnf. Merkle was on second, with two out as a result of a single and a steal, when Sallee frooved one to Meyers. The Indian drove the ball past third for a long hit, breaking up the game. The second game was marred by a fist fight on the St Louis bench between Magee and Cathers at the end of the fourth lnlng. They got into an argument over the way Cathers had played Doyle's flyri which dropped safe for a single, and the men came to blows. Special police men broke up the fight and Umpire Bron nan put both players off the field. Scoro: ' ST. LOUIS. - NEW TOIUC. BT. ""id r, AD.H.O.A.E. IMiree 2b... 4 113 ODurns.
