South, either Gleason or Fuller may
play second. and in the former case,
Davis could return to third But any
way, New York has the making of a
strong team
With Farrell, George and Harry Da-

and either Pfeffer or Fuller, there is
team worthy of noble foe In the
box the Giants have Rusie, Meekin
and Dad" Clarke, and this trio, if
they keep in anything like their last
seasons form, will make it a pleasure

PHILLIES PUZZLE CRITICS.
Philadelphia's team is placed by
judges everywhere from first to sixth
place in the race. Some say that it
was mistake to trade Hamilton for
Nash, while others insist that as a
captain alone the latter.eis a most de-
sirable acquisition. For the other po-
sitions Capt. Nash has Clements, Boyle,
Grady and Buckley catchers; Brouth-
ers and Boyle, first base; Hallman,
Cross. Sullivan and Hulen, for second
for third base. For the outfield there
are Delehanty, Sullivan, Hulen, Tur-
ner and Thompson.
Baltimore's personnel is giving the
rivals bad dreams already for 1t looks
as though they are in an excellent trim
to take the pennant for the third sue
cessive year. Mcmahon will enter the
bunch at the call this year, instead of
laying back for garrison finish, and
if his arm is as effective as it proved
then there will be lot of broken-down
skates carried to the stable at the end
OF the race. Hoffer, Esper, Hemming,
Clarkson and Hawk are the other men,
bers of a pitching combination that
bodies trouble for opposing batters
Then for catchers there are Robinson
and Clarke, and in case of an emery
ency, Doyle. With Doyle or Carey on
first base; Reitz, second; McGraw,
third; Jennings, short stop, and Kelley,
ERODE and Keller in the outfield Balti-
more ought to run one, two or three.
Arson says Pittsburg has a show,
Cincinnati some. Boston none, but Phil

runaway colt puts the place horses for
the 1895 race
