the contest &c
Hanlon has already tired of his new
Texas League pitcher. Blackburn, and has
notified McCloskey. who sent him up for
trial. that he would be returned. Black
burn wants another trial. and perhaps the
Oriole manager may give him the second
chance.
Internal dfssensidns, FIST what was pre-
dicted last spring. Aave>tbroken out in the
Orioie camp and the Baltimore papers are
yelling for Hanlon to wipe the defect away
birds get from the Temple Cup money the
worse these GUARDS will become.
Tommy fuckers 'hand is coming around
all right. He has been resting in Cleye-
land since the Senator's went west. and
will probably be in the game tomorrow.
First Baseman Mccain of the Torontos
is hitting the ball terrificaly these days.
Hardly a game goes by that he does not
secure q triple or a home run and his
average continues to remain almost sta
tionary around the 400 mark. White and
McHale of the same club are also batting
hard and fielding in sensa tional style
No games will be played by the National
League today, an unusual occurrence
Washington and Baltimore, the only two
eastern clubs in the west have finished
their first series, and the other eastern
clubs will travel west today. The battle
will be renewed all along the line tomor-
row.
Umbrellas, lockets. rings. gold chains,
pocketbcoks in fact all kinds of trinkets
have been found in the stands after a game.

Cincinnati Enquirer.
Perhaps there isn't one gentleman look
ing on from a distance and quietly nudging
himself and laughing up his sleeve at the
discontinue of the champions. OF course
Umpire Sheridan wouldn't say anything
but umpires are like everybody else. They
have failings, and two straight defeats are
Il Knockout to the stories started by the
Baitimores to the effect that Sheridan was
drunk during the series they last played in
Cincinnati. They have lost three games
with Lynch and Hurst They will have a
hard time squarirg themselves at home.
Stories about Hurst and Lynch being drunk
will not go. and the lie about Sheridan was
credited only by partisan and unfair mind
ed people.
1t is evident that the Baltimore players
cannot stand defeat much better than any
OF the other teams. What difference there
IS IN their playing now, compared wit n
when they played here on the first western
trip. Where is that scrappiness that made
them feared by every club in the league
II it has not left them they are keeping it
in hiding. for it has not been on exhibition
since the Orioles invaded Cincinnati.
There was time that an umpire really
feared to give close decision against Ham
Ions men, for if he did he was surrounded
N a moment by every player on the team
and nothing but a few fires or the sending
OF some one to the bench would put q stop
to their arguing. How different it is now
During the two games that the champions
have played here they have not questioned
one Notwithstanding very unusual for
men like McGraw and Kelley. They seem
to realize that they are not to win the flag
this year. and they are resigned to their
fate. They take their medicine without
struggle, and their objections now are
very weak at the knees This is particu-
larly true of Muggsy McGraw. Not once
has he opened his mouth-in the two games
There was a time when McGraw was al
ways in the thickest of every argument
with the umpire. It may be that Hanlon's
men realize that they are not the only
team In the league Their experience dur
ing the past few weeks, at least should
nave taught them as much. The Orioles
are still great ball team, and for that
matter they may win the pennant, but
they VIII have to improve in their hitting TO

limit these days, and when the opposing
team Is hitting their pitchers they can moi
