Omaha Amateurs
Lose Both Contests
At Minneapolis
Minneapolis, Minn., Sept. 17. (Spe
cial Telegram.) Omaha suffered a
double dose of defeat at the hands of
Minneapolis yesterday. Both the Ar
mours and Murphy-Did-Its were vie
tims. The Armours, playing" the 'Wilcox
Trux, Minneapolis class A champs,
in the first' game of the inter-city se
ries to determine the amateur cham
pionship of the United States, lost out;
4 to z, while the Murphys were de
feated, 4 to 0, by the Lake Athletics,
class A runners up of Minneapolis.
While Omaha's colors were trailed
in the dust, the Gate City athletes
made two mighty fast ball games pos
sible. Both the Armours and Mur
phys played good ball and they fought
until the last man was out The Ar
mours ran into a little too much class
in the Wilcox Trux. Andy Graves
did the best he could, but the heavy
artillery of the Trux was too swift
for the gray-haired veteran and they
pounded him for ten safe knocks.
