10 SHOW FOR STRIKING PLAYERS.

Cayler Looks For m Exceptionally Sue
cessful Baseball scsson-Good Work Of
tho Indian Player-NotabIo Incidents
Demonstrate tho Uncertainty Of the Ma
tional Game.
The first week of the National Leauge
season was full Of surprises and notable
incidental Surprise In painful form
struck the advocates of The Boston, Chi
oaao, Cleveland and New York clubs par
ticularly. Boston nnd ClevelaDd's big
bunches Of defeats right at the outset are
only additional proof that baseball Is
mighty uncertain. The four clubs named
above were selected by the wise ones to
finish in the first division of the race, and,
In spite of their slowness in getting away,
1t is u pretty certain prediction to place
them all in that section.
Boston Is supposed to have team
which will finish well up if it does not
annoy the winner. The teams trouble in
starting of has been weak batting The
samo cause can be assigned to the poor
start Of the Clevelands. Chicagos and New
Yorks. Weak batting does not always
mean n few base hits in the score, but
rather an inability Of the batsman to
bunch the hits or to hit when hits mean
runs.
Several of the pitchers of these clubs,
on whom the main reliance will come
later, have been badly punished when
they faced their opposing batsmen. Es-
pecially was It true Of Meekin, Young,
| Nichols Griffith and Terry. These old
Intchers must 'tthaw out" in warm
weather before their arms become very
effective In the meantime the young
pieChers, like Hill, Fraser, Payne, Doheny,
Orth, Hoffer and Donahue, are doing their
very best work in spite OF cold weather.
Again the cry goes up, LOOK out for
the Phillies." 1t has for years been such
q CRY as the legendary one Of "The wolf,
the wolfP' and 1t may result In the same
way, with final reality when least ex-
pected. But ] consider such a thing i'm
probable. The team is stronger than 1t
was last year, especially at first base and
In the outf1eld, but its old, fatal weakness
lin the pitchers position-is likely to
loom up again almost any time. The
team has always been notoriously weak
on tho road, and the coming western trip
will show whether q new manager and o
few young players to replace the old will
remove this handicap Of former seasons.
The team Is starting of as the Pittsburgs
began last spring.
which attracted the most widespread at
tention WAS Rusie's reappearance as a
pitcher with the New Yorks. The report
that his condition was excellent was not
generally believed by those who had no

SOCKALEXIS.

chance to see him. But when he joined
his former comrades upon the opening
day there was not the slightest doubt in
their mind upon that point. The big
pitcher was trained down to midseason
form and showed in his face careful alb
stinence from his usual winter indulgence
in liquor.
Then there were thousands who believed
that his year's absence from the diamond
would weaken his powers. All this was
refuted when he pitched against the Wash
ingtons on Grant day and showed his old
time skill, wonderful curves and peculiar
power of control. Indeed, he has never
been in such good form so early in season
as he shows now upon his return to the
ranks.
Rusie's re-enthronement in the hearts
of the rooters was marked by the tremen-
dous enthusiasm with which $4,000 spec
tators cheered him on to victory. His
proof Of being the Rusie Of old and the
undoubted success of left handed Doheny
put the New York team in the list Of
probable pennant winners, because the
pitching corps of Rusie, Meekin, Doheny
and Clarke is one which has probably
never had rival In any one club. There
Is a field of hard hitters and good sup
porters behind them, all Of which Is bound
TO bear good fruit. Most of the New
York players are veterans, and they are
slow in getting into their stride, the same
as the old horses on the turf, but when they
do get to going they are hard to stop.
Should New York show up well in the
race this season, 1t would mean prosperity
all over the country; for, as has been
| pointed out before, baseball enthusiasm In
| the metropolis Is looked upon as the
| games barometer for the Union. When
enthusiasm runs high In New York, all
| other cities are similarly affected, and vice
J versa. Nobody has ever been able to give
| a reason for it, nor Is there anybody who
I can successfully deny the truth Of 1t.

whole, is something extraordinary In the
matter Of patronage, especially as the
weather was decidedly unfavorablc to com.

The rumor of n proposed revolt OF the
players developed certainty within week

MURRAY INJURED.
Buffalo Won From the Grays Minus the

Buffalo Won From the Grays Minus tn G
services Of Their Manager.
Buffalo won another game from Provi-
dence yesterday afternoon at Adelaide
Park, possibly owing to the demoralized
condition of the Grays caused by an scci-
dent to Manager Murray In the practice.
While practicing at batting pitched balls
Cooney allowed his bat to slip, and it
struck Murray in the head laying him out.
A surgeon was summoned, and when MUIR
ray became conscious 1t was found that
the extent of the injury consisted of a long
cash on the top of the head.
The score was close until the seventh In
ming when Buffalo piled up four runs.
The only error charged to Buffalo was on a
tumble of grounder by Field. The only
run scored by Providence was by Weigand

There Is no brotherhood oath to hold the

attracted to this class by two successive

year the fight will be fought in the 20 foot

Athletic club In New York the other
night At tho conclusion of tho fourth
round he had tho option Of deciding that
Walcott had won on q Knockout, that
Watts had won on o foul, or that neither
had won and the bout should proceed
The last decision was given, but objected
to by Police Inspector Allaire Then
Roche declared the bout a draw. The
trouble began In the third round, when
Watts went down three times to avoid
punishment. Walcott determined to set
tie him tho next time he did the trick. He
had Watts going anyhow, and after q
body blow in the fourth round he knocked
the Louisville fighter to his hands and
knees Then Waloott punched him lightly
on the jaw with his right and Watts, who
was apparently not knocked out, toppied
over gently to the floor when he heard the
cries of Foul" The blow that Watts re-
ceived was u light one, and appeared to be
largely an accident, so Roche was at loss
what to do. Watts was down 90 seconds
but was not counted out. Roche ordered
both men to their corners, and after cries
and suggestions of all kinds from the
crowd decided to let the bout proceed after
allowing Watts five minutes rest This
Watts seconds refused to permit, as did
Inspector Allaire. Roche could not well
declare in favor of either man after the
delay, so he called the bout draw. Then
Watts started co shake hands with his Up
ponent, but Walcott turned and made a
dive through the ropes with a look of
scorn.
