To-day really marks the beginning of the
end in the National League championship
season, so far as the Eastern division is
concerned.
The Orioles go on to Manhattan Island
to do battle with the "once-Giants," and
there i'll be a hard fight
The New Works VIII strive TO repeat their
work of last eason in the Temple Cup
SERIES But tney are not near as strong.
There is no Ward on the team. Meekins
arm is gone. Charley Farrell is sick, and
Eddie Burke is also off the team. Instead
is found Davis at second, German on third,
Stafford in left and cratic Doyle behind
the, bat. -.7,. ....-.
The Orioles, on the other hand, are
strong and playing fast ball. McGraw's
absence weakens the team only in batting,
and since they viii meet only ordinary
pitchers the result of the games cannot be
much in doubt.
Strange things happen in baseball, and
the result may be disagrceable to Han
Ions huStlers. The New Yorks would
gladly enjoy the reputation of killing of
the orioles in their tight race, and they
viii play hard for victory.
HOW 1T STANDS.
Baltimore has now a percentage of .667,
thrown out, .664. Should they win all
three OF the games they will have per
centa ge, not counting the forfeited game,
of GIL.
In the event of losing one and winning
two their percentage, not counting the
forfeited game, VIII be .66I.
II they win one and lose two they will
end the season with percentage of $50,
or counting the for felt ed game, .659.
tbnx all 70 will
be, the Pittsburg game thrown out. .651.
The Baltimores and New Yorks were
to have played postponed game yester-
day, and as the former played the PhiIlies
the chances are that only three games win
be played with the Giants and on that basis
the above calculations were made.
With Clevelands. how do things look?
They have two games with the Colonies
Saturday and Sunday. Measuring the two
clubs as they have been during the JASON of
course Tebeau's Spiders Will be an odds-on
favorite.
CAN'T COUNT on THE Colonies.
But the Colonies broke up two winning
spurts when they tackled the Bridegrooms
and also the Phillies on their last Eastern
trip. The loquacious Oliver is counting on
two games and he will then have a per-
centage of 654.
In case McCloSky's youngsters should take
Out dlSN ) ldus III IttNG oto. anu
then the Colonies may win two. In which
event the Spiders VIII have but $50.
Cleveland also has postponed game with
the Chicagos, the playing of which is still
undecided. With two victories at Louisville
and winning the one at Chicago, the Spiders
will have a percentage of .656. Losing
one of the three they will have. 654, and with
two defeats out of the three their per-
centage will be .641.
1t will be seen from these figures that
Cleveland can only win the pennant by
being victorious in all three of the con-
tests and by Baltimore having the Pitts
burg forfeit game taken away and losing
all three al New York.
Even with the Pittsburg game thrown
out and losing two out of the three the
Orioles will have percentage of .656. In
this case. however, the fractional part of
point VIII give the Spiders the pennant by
Ga to 80.

FIELD FEARED AND FUHKED
EtheIwynn's Owner, Afraid of the
Sea, Withdrew His Boat.
WOULD NOT RISK HIS LIFH
His Skipper Protested and Swore al
Him, but All 10 No Purpo~e-SpEuce
Won by Nearly Nine Minutes-If
She Gets To-day's Race the Guy
VIII Go TO England.

Centre Island, n. Y, Sept. 26.-The third
race in the seawashaka Clubs International
challenges for small boats, sailed to-day,
resulted in a handsome victory for Spruce
~, the challenger.
Owner c. j. Field withdrew EtheIwynn,
the American defender, at the end OF six
miles, half the distance. AS far as the
contest was competitive, the English half
rater was winner by nearly nine min
utes, being handsomely sailed in a wind
that made yachts like the forty-foot Norota
put double reef in her main sail in order
TO travel comfortably while viewing the
work OF the tiny fighters, which were tossed
like cookie shells in the rollers kicked Up
by the strong south westerly breeze.
The wind during the first half of the
course, which was to leeward and then to
wind ward, three miles each leg, twice
round, was of twelve and fifteen knots
velocity.
HIS SKIPPER PROTESTED.
On reaching Centre Island buoy, eight
minutes and iifty-eight seconds after Spruce
". had started on the second run to lee
ward, Ethelwynn was sailed up to the
committee boat and Mr.. field declared his
withdrawal against the protest of bis
skipper, Capt Bail, and the advice of the
Ethelwynn's designer, Mr. W. p. Stephens,
who was acting as the American repre-.
sentative on the Oneida.
Mr.. Field. when asked by the United
Press representative the reason for his
withdrawal, said: 1T is 10 fit place out
here for small boats like these, and
dsn't propose TO risk my precious life for
any cup that might thus be Won. l wish
tosay also that l pull oct against the wish
and advice or my Sailmaster, Mr.. Ball,
and this should be said plainly that he
may be placed right in the matter"
Later it appeared that from the time
the outer mark was turned there was
mutiny on the Ethelwynn. Capt. BAH
explained the facts as follows: My crew,
composed of Mr.. Field, who is also Ethel
wynns owner, was practically in state
OF funk as soon as We began the windward
work.
sWORE AT HIM ROUNDLY.
"of course l swore at him in true ship
master fashion. but when in his dual
capacity of shipowner and crew he per-
sisted in throwing the boat into the wind
by letting fly the jib sheet at each heavy
puff, thus rendering the rudder useless,
the skipper was powerless to keep the
boat on her course. Under this condition
of things, with crew that was not even
tractable ms ballast, the only thing left
was withdrawal"
Mr.. Ball, before the series began, de-
sired his brother for crew. and Owner
Field has now acceded to his wish. The
new hand will report for duty tomorrow,
and the well-wishers of the little de-
fender hope that under the new conditions
Mr.. Ball viii be better able to show the
qualities that are believed to exist in
Ethelwynn.
sTo-morrow's race will be triangular, and
If Spruce wins the cup goes to England.

STOPPED CHUTE RACES
Step in the Right Direction by
the Island Track.
FAVORED BY THE TALENT
VIII Have Less Chance for
the Confidence of the Bookies.
Tfosa Beat the Favorite-Jersey's
Great Finish.

The officials of the Alexander Island
track have been appealed to again and
again to abolish the races which are run
out of the chute. The events are not
only uninteresting TO the general public,
but they furnish means OF fixing and
"jobbing" races that would not be pos
sible il they were run on the circular
track.
Yesterday they took the first step in
the direction of a reform in this particular
by running three of the events that would
otherwise have been chute affairs on the
circular track
As far as could be learned, the plan
worked very wen, and in the future most
OF the short distance races win be started
around the turns. Not only are the talent
kept guessing If they will get a ride for
their money, but the general public are
given a better chance to view the con-
tests.
OPEN TO OBJECTION.
These short distance affairs out of the
chute should have been done away with
when it was found that they were so I'M
popular with the racing public. They
would have saved manv boy from being
pulled who tried every inch OF the way,
and some OF the boys who are not riding
on the level have found them TO be- the
very best things on the market for fix
ing' a race before the judges stand is
reached.
Chink should have been 1 to 10
chance in the opening race, but the books
laid at one time as good as TO against
him. He went to the front at to 5, and
going on won somewhat handily from
Peter jackson, with c. o. d. third.
Patte received what amounted to 4
gift of the money in the second event,
getting SO much the best OF the start that
the balance of the field never caught him.
JUSTIFIED THE SUPPORT.
While Tioga was strongly fancied to
win in the third race, Samaritan was the
favorite He closed at even money, and
justified the support he received by win
ming all the way from Prince klamath
and Tioga.
Old Grand Prix met four other contest
ants in the fourth race and seemed 20 out
class them so far that to was the
best price at post time He got away in
front, and leading all the way, won after
a little shaking up from Prince John.
The handicappers thought that Jersey
could not handle the weight he was asked
to pick up in the Fifth race, and Jessie
Taral was made the choice, at 6 to ., with
Jersey next in demand, at to 8.
Fitzsmmons made a great finish on the
latter, and in a hard drive got him home
first by head from Irish Lass.
The closing race went to Johnny, who
ran a good race. He got off last, but
ran through his field like wild horse,
and at the end won easily from Grampian.

were all under the best previous record for

did not see him and Dawson registered a
protest.

NEARLY A HUT-OUT.
Reds Defeated Anson's

Reds Defeated Anson's Colts by
Twelve to One.
Chicago, Sept. 26.-The Reds defeated
the Colts to-day with the greatest ease and
but for Smiths error in the sixth inning,
would have shut them out.
Anson's new star was battcd al will and
poorly supported, while Dwyer was at his
best, and almost perfectly backed up.
Barring Decker's poor play, the out
field work was unusually good, most of the
catches on both sides being difficult and
several of them on the sensational order.

THE Democratic organs, in advocating the
election of young Mr., Bechtel to the office of
District Attorney, lay great stress upon the
fact that the young man has been Assistant
District Attorney since 1898. For this reason
they say he should be elected and for the
same reason we believe he should be reegated
to private life. Since he has been in the
Office there have been two many indictments
against transgressors of the law pigeon-holed
to continue the same officials in 50 important
position The taxpayers of the county will
make a clean sweep, so far as this office is
concerned, on November 5th, and place a
man in control who will know neither fear
nor favor We still think Mr., Bechtel is
beaten.
