in the Union in point Of patronage,
and team there which would win 60
per cent of it's games would place it's
club among the other large winners.
But Philadelphia patrons have been so
continuously disappointed and disgust
ed with the wretched playing of the
c1tyS representative team that nearly
all interest in the game is gone and
enthusiasm is as dead as a salt mack
erel. For the first time in years the
Philadelphia club will probably close
the season a loser. 1t is most dis
couragfng to the owners, who have
$23O,000 invested in their grounds and
magnificent stands and building.
The Pittsburgs may possibly balance
their profits and losses. The sure losers
seem to be Louisville, st. Louis, Wash
ington, Brooklyn and Philadelphia
But the profits of the five winners
will exceed the total losses of the other
seven more than three to one.
For several years there has been
more or less gossip Of changes in the
major league circuit, and while there
was often much ground for the rumors,
the next season saw the old circuit in
tact. This time there seems to be no
doubt that the season of 1898 will open
with some change in location or man
agement. The condition of affairs in
several of the clubs is critical and a
break or two seems to be inevitable
before another pennant race is inaug-
urated. All signs point to that end

WIN AT LAST FROM TIGERS.
MiIIers Take One Game and Lose One
at Detroit.

Special to the Globe.
DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 2S.-Doggy
Millers men got their first win in the
series of six here today, taking the
second of the two games played this
afternoon by virtue of the drubbing
they administered to left handler
Hahn. In the first game Thomas and
Hutchison were the opposing pitchers,
Willie Bill having asked to pitch today
after his failure to stop the Tigers
yesterday He had somewhat the bet
ter of the fight, though both men
pitched a very even game. Once more,
however, the support behind him was
ragged and his team was beaten from
the start.
The second game started out better
and bade fair to be very pretty con-
test, which it was till the fifth, when
the Millers We're one run behind. In
that inning Hahn made two wild
pitches, gave three bases on balls and
was hit for four singles and three
triples, besides which Beard made an
error at short which he played be-
cause Of an injury to Hines. This
earned six runs in the inning. Eus-
tace made the first three Dagger and
after Miller got his base and Letcher
hit, Deadly and Parrot hit triples in
succession. That was enough to win
the game very handily In the sixth
the Tigers made a starter, Deady's
muff and base on balls letting two

WESTERN LEAGUE RACE.
Second, Third, Fourth anu Last
Places Still In Doubt.

The week in the Western league has
been without special feature. The IN
dianapolis team has won constantly
and now has a lead of more than 100
points over it's nearest competitor. Col
where it was last week in percentage
ST. Paul lost one game to Detroit and
one to Grand Rapids, and won three
from the latter in the past seven days
The difference between the local team
and Columbus is but seven points, but
this breach is pretty sure to be wild
ened in the next few days, as Colum-
bus will play constantly on its own
grounds, while ST. Paul, after today,
will be playing four games in two days
at Detroit, four games in three days at
Indianapolis, and four games in three
days at Columbus. This series of ~
dozen contests in eight days is almost
certain to result disastrously to ST
Paul, as the team will be travelling and
have scarcely time for sleep and meals
in the quick jumps. The gap between
ST. Paul and Milwaukee is the great
est in several Weeks-an even three
games. The gap isn't likely to grow
much smaller until the two teams meet
in st. Paul Sept. 8, when the contest
will be for blood and third place. De-
troit serenely occupies it's pedestal be-
tween the big and little fellows. 1t at
least cannot be dethroned. The fight
for last place goes merrily on. Grand
Rapids has it, but either Kansas City
or Minneapolis is near enough TO
snatch it off at the last minute. The
record TO date follows:

WILD AND WOOLLY
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S.-Today's contest
was a wild game of changing the positions
of players. Murphy retired because of a
torn finger. Swain was batted out of the
box, and Cross, Hart and Mcguire were put
on the bench by Umpire Kelly for disputing
decisions: Kelly's umpirng on the whole,
was good. He called the game at the end of
the first half of the eighth on account of
darkness. Attendance. 2 600. Score:

Pages work at short was not so bad. The
two that he let get away from him were cut
ting up the dust at a terrific pace.
Isbells fall could not have been made at a
more inopportune moment. 1t forced st. Paul
to play an extra inning for a game which it
seemed to have cinched much earlier.
Griffin boosted his batting average in great
shape Of his five hits in five times to bat
one was double and another home run.
Had Grand Rapids done little better field
ing in the early part Of the game, that SUI
perb hitting in the sixth would certainly
have won the game.
A little bird says Fricken would pitch much
better ball if he would go to bed earlier at
night.
Campau and the bleachers have more fun
by far than the rest of the crowd.
There are but few games in which there
are five double plays. That was the number
yesterday.

afternoon and Umpire Emslie called
the game on account of darkness at

score tied. Dahlen was put out of the
