A three-game gap now separates the two clubs—a decided advantage for Boston when only a little more than a fortnight of play remains be fore the season closes. Starting in with the Cincinnati se ries, the Giants began to play better ball than they have shown for months but it looks as If their reversal of form come too late, their only appar ent salvation now being the chance that the Bostons will strike a snag either in the remainder of the series with the westerners or in the clash with the Giants beginning September 30th. Little Progress. In the American League Boston has made little progress against Phila delphia. although the latter team has been playing below its mid-season form. The Mackmen lead by six and one-half games. In the Federal League Chicago and Indianapolis ran neck and neck from the first of the week to the last and ended with Indianapolis half a game ahead. Chicago leading Sunday lost Mon day to Pittsburg while Indianapolis won, tleing the two for the leadership. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday both won. Friday, Chicago lost to Pittsburg again and Indianapolis by winning from Brooklyn again took the lead. Saturday Chicago won from Baltimore and Indianapolis lost to Buffalo downing the Ho osiers, plac ing the teams once more on even terms. By winning from Buffalo to day, the Hoofeds again are on top.
