CLEVELAND, May S.-Cleveland knocked one
OF Brooklyn's pitchers out of the box to-day and
hit the man who took his place hard when hits
meant runs. Brooklyn began the game well.
after the third inning. Daly's fielding at second
was very much off color. and materially helped
the home team in it's run getting. Cleveland
punched its hits. That's the story of the game
in a nutshell. Griffin, the first man up for
Brooklyn, got a base on balls. McCarthy's and
Anderson's outs sent him to third. Then La
chance came to the plate and hit the first ball
ing Griffin In ahead. In the third, after Ken
nedy had struck out, Griffin made a three Dagger
to left and scored on Anderson's single to right.
In the other six innings the visitors drew blanks.
After going out in order in the first and second
innings, Cleveland Jumped on kennedy in the
third. Ten men went to bat before the side was
cut. o'Connor began with n double. Dele
hanty's out helped him to third. Wilson got.a
base on balls. Burkett. Mckean, and Chiids
then thinner planted a safe one in centre.
Shearon reached first on a wild throw by Daly,
and O'COnnor flew out. Five men had crossed
the plate. Abbey replaced Kennedy in the
fourth inning and began by striking two men
out. Burkett went out on a fly. McCarthy's
error and hits by Tebeau and thinner gave one
rim to Cleveland In the fifth. A base on balls.
tho sixth. Hits by Tebeau, O'Connor. Dele
hanty. and Burkett, aided by Days and

ended the run getting. The score:

rie's future civic expectations, The eN.
perience OF all cities has been that d.
vided authority is unsatisfactory, The
tendency is TO consolidation OF work
and the centering of responsibility, The
civil service is so far as possible divorc-
ed from political activity, Competency
and efficiency are made the sole pass
port to municipal employment, Checks
and balances are provided to ensure
correct and honest accounting, and an
official bond is made TO mean something,
While no American city has Yet been
able to tnprovise an ide0 municipal
government, the trend everywhere is to-
ward better and cheaper management
OF the public business,
A charter revision committee should
be made up entirely outside OF the city
officials, II is no more the function of
the council or other municipal officers
to amend or rOvise the charter than Il
belongs 20 the president and cabinet 10
submit to congress proposed amend
ments TO the constitution. Such move
ments belong exclusively TO and should
be initiated by the people, The mayor.
attorney. council. and various commits
sions OF the city, should be invited to
submit such Recommendations as sug-
gest themselves to them from their Of
fetal experience. but no city official
need necessarily. or indeed can with
propriety. become a member ot any
commission OF committee charged with
the responsibility Of amending or revis-
ing a municipal charter.
