The morning times., 1896-06-01

while Philadelphia. Baltimore and Brook
iyn captured everything in sight.
Boston was the worst sufferer of the
day, dropping from fourth To fiflh; BAL
.imore moved into second place, ana Ftit-
adelphia tied Cincinnati for the lhlrd po-
sttioa. Both Baltimore and Philadelphia
gained largely on the Spiders. VINO closed
the week in the lead. As all the clubs 4 re
in tie East. where no National League
games are played on Sunday. Yesterday
was a blank. The Western clubs Will
change grounds today and the campaign
of the East vs.. West Will be renewed.
RETURNED YESTERDAY.
The Senators returned from PittSburE
yesterday morning, reaching horne dt
out from the two games aud an all-mght
ride and spent the day lCl!ing around tier
rooms securing the rest necessary for THIS
weeks campaign against Cleveland ana
Louisville at National Park.
Talking to The Times man, Joyce Sai'i
he was satisfied with the even break at
as aed e w1S i6e az hG
chief, I'VE W oud have won the morning
game also had not Jimmy McJames been
suffering with an attack OF off day. Inc
PittSburgS got onto Jimmy III the firth
inning, which. with our errors, gave theisl
lead we couldn't overcome, though We
scared them within an inch oil Ihelr llVes
toward the close.
1--WE hit the bail very hard III both games
All OF US seem to he getting our batung
eyes lately and if we hold TO them many
thc season closes. Until the Pittsburg series
we haven't been hitting up to our usual
marx, but it appears now as II We had
struck our gait. You can't tell about
batting il comes and gees from Il club and
the reason for the one or the other is Gii-
eXplainable.
KING AND GERMAN.
Il notice in the papers that the public
! seems TO az gree with my Judgment on hlng
and German, now that their work N the
| box has been seen. Ofcourse tits 100 carry
| to say very much about these men but L
don't think they VIII prove lallufes. , rue rue
during the season. No pitcher escapes
nowadays, the best in the business
| getting unncrcluiiy pounded at times
! Look at Hawiey, for instance. He is being
| batted like q minor Lacquer at present
but that does not indicate that h e has lost
his cunning or speed. He is up against
| q streak OF hard luck Sucn aS Is ilabie 10
'fI think our club will make a good record
from now on. We are at home for nearly
| three weeks and that is big advantage
| Travelling and pla wing against partisan
crowds has effect on 4 teams work.
| We go at the CleveiandS this afternoon
for three games and though IN my opinion
il is about the strongest club in the lea que:
! and the leaders t preaent, thlnk we
| will take couple OF games from them.
We always find them easier than several
clubs who have no license TO win game
from us during season but VINO often
beat US when we least expect it.

and as Al is about due, | think we will
throw the Spiders down. Certainly we
will If we can continue the heavy hitting
that We have developed in the past three
games. Ali the men are in good condition
and good spirits, and now that we Will
have goou long pull at home We expect
to weave our way toward the top
