one postponed game between them
and that may also be played
today. though it is hardly prob
able that Arson will care 20 take
any more chances with the home Team
than he has to. Beginning with Mon
day of next week Chicago will close the
season with three games with the CieVe-
lands on their own grounds, and then
return home to wind up with three
games with the Cincinnatis. AS the
record stands now, counting in yester-
davis game, Chicago has won twelve
games with Pittsburg and lost six.
THE record with Cleveland is 10
won and 9 lost, and with Cincinnati IA
won and 3 lost. Boston has one more
game to play at home with Philadeipnla
and one postponed game. Next week
thew begin at home with the Giants Tor
three scheduled games. The team then
goes to Philadelphia and winds up Win
The Phillies. This leaves Boston with
seven regular games with the TWO
teams. and three postponed that may
be played, q total OF ten, while chicago
has seven regulars and one postponed.
Boston has won ten games out OF nIteen
with New York and nine games out OF
fifteen with Philadelphia. At the same
rate nj victory on both sides Chicago
would still have the best Of it in case all
the games were played. Both teams
are playing great ball, but OLD Anse mas
his heart set on the flag, and lie Will
doubtless win 1t.
PIttsburg still has chance to finish
in fifth place, but the prospects are
much better that the team will land not
higher I'D the list than sixth, while
seventh notch looks like the strongest
probability. AS to the outlook for 1892,

there is no doubt. His surroundings
here have not been pleasant, and much
of his work has 'been bad, some OF IL
through his own fault. Taking these
things into consideration, and assum-
ing that the elements OF discomfort
which seem to have been incorporated
into the case will remain with 1t In a
greater or less degree. it was nrooaoiy d

BY TnU action of Columbus in ap-
preaching Cleveland players for next
season, and the Cleveland officials send
ing an agent after Baltimore players,
war has been openly declared between
the league and association. A peace
may yet be patched up, but the only
thing that will ever fill the bill will be
a return to the national agreement.
Without this bulwark Of protection
piracy on both sides will flourish and
may be expected, and unless this peace
is reached another winter Of warfare
and newspaper agitation may be ex-
pected by the public. So far as the
league is concerned 1t has the best of
the situation and the association will
certainly come off second best in
finish battle.
