The Western Union Telegraph Company having made arrangements with the management for the sole right to use their instruments at Oriole Park, their enterprising rivals, the Baltimore and Ohio, have established a station on the roof of a house near the grounds. From this position they score the game and transmit it directly to this and other cities. The position is not the best for accurate scoring.
