Chicago, May 18.- With Krock in the box yesterday, and rain falling during nearly the whole game Anson's pets "put it all over" the Hub athletes to the tune of 9 to 2, which seems to show that Chicago still knows how to play base ball. Flint was catcher and the Boston battery was composed of Sowders and Kelly. Other league scores were: at Detroit - Detroit 7, Washington 1; at Pittsburg - Pittsburg 4, New York 4 - game called, darkness; at Indianapolis - Indianapolis-Philadelphia game postponed – rain.

Chicago, May 19. - The defeat of Tuesday was fully wiped out by the Chicago league club in the final game of the series yesterday with the men from the Hub. The score was 3 to 0 in favor of Anson's experts, which is a better score than 20 to 5. It was all done in five innings.

Chicago, May 23. - The series of ball games between the home club and the Philadelphia men has not added to the prestige of Anson's athletes this week, the visitors having won two games in succession.

The League scores yesterday were: At Chicago - Chicago 2, Philadelphia 4; at Pittsburg- Pittsburg 3, Washington 0; at Detroit - Detroit 4, New York 6; at Indianapolis - Indianapolis 2. Boston 4.
