STRUGGLE FOR LAST PLACE STILL GOES ON

Whatever decision the National league directors may
make in regard to the Magee case, they will certainly not be
able to punish the man who was really at the bottom of the at
tack that Magee made on Umpire Finneran.
That man, according to our notions, was Horace Fogel, the
joke president of the Philadelphia Nationals.
Fogel, throughout the season, has been panning the um
pires and the president of the league. His attitude has been
one of encouragement to rowdyism.
Now, it takes all possible restraint to keep ball players
within bounds, and when players feel their club president
wants rough methods they are likely to use them.
We suggest that the fine and suspension be raised from
Magee and plastered on Fogel.
Seriously, tho, it will be a shame if the Magee suspension
is raised. Pleas of “self defense” and such are of course jokes
of the deepest dye.
The fight against rowdy baseball MUST GO ON. The game
must be cleaned up absolutely. The National league has al
ways been the one that has tierated rowdyism—in fact almost
encouraged it before the days of Lynch.
AN INTERVIEW WITH TIM HURST
(Copyright, 1911, National News Association.)
"I see by th« papers," says I to Hurst.
While at the Bartholdi we slaked our thirst.
That an umpire out In the Tr!-8tate league—
I think that his name was Barney McTeeg—
Oat a terrible beating the other day
From a rough right Beider, by name O'Shay,
It seems that O'Shay, as sore as sin
At the luckless ‘ump.’
Just walloped the chump
So hard that he singled a double chin."
> My old pal’s (ace grew stern and glim:
"I'd like to be bade In the game," says Tim.
"Have you read about Ftnneran'a case?" says I,
falling the waiter who stood hard by; '
"It seems that an outflelder named Magee
Started a punch from below his knee
And landed it flush on Flnneran’s cheek.
Making a furrow from ear to beak.
Finneran, atunned by the vicious blow.
Lit on his back
From the force of the whack:
He might have won out If he had a show."
Once more my old pal's face grew grim:
"I’d like to be back In the league,” says Tim.
UHLAN TO GO
AFTEJRRECORD
Famous Trotter Will Attempt
on Monday to Lower the
World’s Best Mark.
CHAMPION MARATHON CATCHER
turfmen are confident that a new trot
ting record for the mile will be set at
Randall next Monday at the opening of
the grand circuit racea when Uhlan,
champion trotter of the world, will at'
tempt to lower the old mark.
Aa a result of Uhlan's performance
yesterday In trotting a mile In 1:011-t,
the best time made so far this year,
the fact that the champion. Is in the
best possible condition is shown.
Vaudeville For
H. Squash Perdue
Charley Dryden is a terror.
Recently It rained In Chicago
on a day when the Cuba and the
Boston Nationals were due to
play. Whereupon Dryden sat
down and wrote a lot of amus
ing nothings, among which
were:
Seeing no chance to put Boston on
Jie map in a baseball way, Hub Per*
and G. Cecil Ferguson will do a hr
er stunt on the vaudeville circuit this
winter. Some of their advance notices
have been printed In Boston already
yet. Hub. and G. Cecil are going on In
a little skit entitled "One More." They
open at Dubuque, Iowa, the night of
February SO, and closa at Galveston,
Texas. February SI. Rehearsals will
not begin until after the season closea
On Mondsy Fergy called at the Cub
office downtown and asked for a leather
covered-schedule. In a neat presenta
tion speech. In which he said the little
books cost S1.60 each, Mr. Murphy gave
Fergy two schedules of tho vlnta

1 vented the schedule to a couple of
friends without looking at the date,

(Copyright. 1911, National News Association.)
My old gent always told me how ho ue.'d to play the gamo,
Knocking the cover off the ball In almost every frame.
"When I was-young," housed to say, "I was a holy terror—
1 never fanned like Leon Ames and never made an error.
The way l fielded, little one. would fill your heart with glee;
1 used to knbek fans oIf their seats,” my old gent said to ms.
"For eight long years.” my old gent said, "I led the league In hitting.
And no one ever whispered that your dad was fond of quitting.
All of the heavy sluggers. Patsy, Tim and Mike and Pat,
Took off their caps to me, kid—you can bet your life on that.
Three home runs In a single game I made off Mike McGee,
And he was one swell pitcher, kid,” my old gent said to me.
My old gent went to watch us kids up In the Bronx last Sunday:
They clapped for him when be showed up, but, gee, they knocked him Monday;
Because the old gent tried to pley—he pitched for us and lost.
The other gung made eighteen runs off what my old gtnt tossed.
"Your outfielders were full of dope, so far as I could see.
And baseball's changed an awful lot, " my old gent said to me.
| Baiting Averages
I Of Cracker Players j
By MAURICE HAAS.
Lots of changes have been made In
the Cracker team In the past ten days,
but to no particular benefit.
The cellar is still the. lodging place of
the Crackers, tho there Is a possible
chance yet for them to better their po
sition.
To try out a lot of men at this stage
®* the game Is a dangerous pastime,
tho nothing ctn do much harm at this
stage.
The Crackers are game and are fight
Ing hard to put tome one else, In last

team who has not suffered some Injury
or been laid up because of sickness
since the beginning of the season.

While on tho subject of weather It
might be well to print the obituary of
Doc Semraen's new suit—the one he had
handed to him at Philadelphia. Two
wet days caused the outside scam ot
the left leg to open up a distance of
eighteen Inches Clothing experts on
the team say the dampness melted the

aria" was put together. There Is
use sewing up tbs seam, because the
suit will melt open in another place the
next time It rains. Semmena says It
was a 946 creation marked down to
129.60. That certainly was a bargain,
but sometimes the 96.98 tags get mixed
with the real goods by mistake.
Nor did Mr. Toney escape the an
noyance due to the Inclement weather.
His suit has copper wires In the troussr
creases. While on the way home from
the yard after the shower Mr. T.
stepped In a mud puddle, grounded his
wires on that side and got a short cir

By defeating the Athletics by the
score of 6 to 3 In a ten-inning game,
the Detroit Tigers still retain their
lead in the American league.
Fully'23,000 peraona saw the remark,
able game that decided for the preaent
the leaderahip, and It wae a struggle
from one end to the other.
Mullln, of Detroit, opposed Krause,
of the Athletics, and the Philadelphians
got a shade the better of It at the start,
scaring a couple of runs on a two-bag
ger, an error and on Infield hit. Two
nits netted the Tigers a run In the sev
•■nth. and with two out In the ninth
Stanage doubled and scored on Mul
lin'* single, thus tlelng the score.
In the tenth Cobb, the first man up,
outran a bunt, went from first to third
on Crawford’s single. A few moments
later he scored on Morlarty'e triple.
The four-run lead garnered by the
Tigers In this fatal tenth, could not be
overcome by the Athletics. They tal
lied one In this round, but that was all.
By this defeat the Athletics are
shoved back a game and a half behind
the Tigers. They meet In th* final
controversy Tuesday.
By the lop-elded score of 19 to 0, the
Chicago White Sox made It four In a
row on the New York field from the
Yankees. Warhop, who was on the
mound for the home team, was hit vi
ciously. Seventeen hits were made off
his curves for a total of 99 bases. On
the other hand. White, of the Sox, waa
a mystery, holding the Yankees to four
scattered blngles.
Too much Johnson tells the tale of
tb* third straight defeat Of the Naps
by the Senators. The score at the fin
ish woe Washington 6. Cleveland 1.
The Boston and Bt. Louis Americana
split In a double-header by the score*
of 9 to 2 In each game. Boston took
the first and the Browns the second.
The Cube and Phillies made It on
even break In the eerlee. The Chicago
ans took their visitors Into camp by
the score of 4 to 9. Mordecat Brown
was too good for the Phillies, and only
allowed the slugging Easterners four
hits.
Twelve In a row (and the record of
the smoke of battle had cleared away
In that found they had seven men
across the plate. The score stood,
Pittsburg 8, Boston 1, at the end.
The New York Nationals made It
three out of four In the series on the
St. Louis grounds from the Cardinals.
Marquard. after a day's rest, came back
and took another fall out of the Bres-
nahan men by the score ot 9 to 9. The
Giant allowed the Cards only five hits.
St. Louis used three pitchers and they
were hit hard.
In a pitchers' battle between Burke,
of Brooklyn, and Keefe, of Cincinnati.

th* argument, winning a close and ex
citing game 2 to 1.

Philadelphia, Pa* Aug. 1<—Two
young gentlemen who tolled for the
lean leader are now standing In the
center of the spotlight, and both seem
destined td hit the trail major league-
ward again.
Morris Rath, of the Orioles, and hap-
py-face Ben Houser are the former
Mackmen In question.
Cincinnati la after Morris, who has
been smoking up the Eastern league by
his stellar work. Five thousand bcana
Is th* financial figure to the Rath deal,
Griffith being willing to come across
with th* monetary arrangement It the
Dunnltea allow Morris to don the uni
form Of Ul* redlogt. Morris went to
Cleveland via the trade that brought
Briscoe Lord Into th* camp of the Tlo-
gans, and th* Naplanders shifted nlm to
th* Eastern league. He hold* down tho
midsack, and comes pretty near being
the noblest thing In that association of
postlmlng.
Smiling Ben Houser Is traveling with
the Indianapolis troupe. Cornelius M.
asked waivers ep the touthpswlng
sackman. and several of the clubs that
could have usde Benjamin to certain
advantage allowed him to drop Into
th* minor*. Now the ambassadors of
