The Boston league team will play the
Portlands in this city Tuesday and Wednes-
day of next week.
Director Conant of the Boston national
league team has been in the city, and has
offered O'Rourke $500 to play with that
club next season, and offered him 800 to
sign personal contract to enter into the
above agreement. O'Rourke would not ac-
cept the above as he has already been offer
ed $4,000 to play with the Philadelphias next
season.
Director Conant offered Wheelock $500 to
play with the Bostons next season, but did
not succeed in signing him.
Mr.. r. f. Somers probably will not give
many more hats to base ball players this
season as home runs are likely to be scarce,
but Kearns should have his hat. The tres
by the side of the road prevented what
would have been as pretty home run as
has been made on the grounds this summer.

THE NATIONAL LEAGUE.


The contest for the national league PEN
nant is so close between Chicago and De-
troit that Boston and Philadelphia hold the
kew to the entire situation. This arises
from the fact that but two victories separate
Chicago and Detroit, and that these clubs
begin their final series of games to-day, the
former with Boston and the latter with
Philadelphia. Philadelphia will do its ut
most to win from Detroit, in order to retain
its place in the third position, now held by
an exceedingly slender thread. On the other
hand, Detroit 'Till try for all three games in
the hope that Boston will give Chicago
enough of set back to give it the prize
That Chicago will try to win also goes with
out saying. Three straight victories from
Boston will award the pennant to Chlcago
beyond all dispute. If Chicago should lose
one game in Boston, and Detroit win all
three in Philadelphia, Chicago would win WIN
the pennant by a percentage OF To 10 ;Izo.
Should Chicago lose two games In Boston,
and Detroit drop one in Philadelphia, the
former would fly the pennant. OF course, IL
Chicago and Detroit each lose one game, the
percentage would be in the same ratio as at
present. 1t will, therefore, be seen that, IN
order to win a clear title to the champion
ship, Detroit must win all three games IN
Philadelphia.
