shut out the Dodgers. Freeman and
Smith walked, when Mcclure sent them
home by double Wrigiey and Carr fol-
lowed with singles. Mcclure going home

the entire Brooklyn team.
Notwithstanding 'Jud" Smiths poor
start as batter in the big league, the
tall boy is well up in the 300 class.
The Senators hammered McKenna out of

Giants. was hit in the face by foul-tipped
ball yesterday at Philadelphia and will
play no more this season The sphere
struck half an inch below the eye and
from the field to a nearby hospital and the
physicians gave it out that the injury was
serious.
All the players at Boston yesterday were
afflicted with ''stage fright" the same state
of affairs that existed last season in the
final series at Baltimore. Think of Boston
making nine errors and yet winning from
the Orioles. Little Willie Keeler again hurt
his ankle and will be out of the game for
the remainder of the season.
Pitcher Suthoff, recently brought to this
city by Manager Irwin from Toronto, was
allowed to return to his home in Cincinnati
for the balance of the season. Last Sum
day he accompanied the Shamrocks of this
city to Indianapolis and held the Indian
apolis Reserves down to five hits, also
striking out five players Suthoff will prob
ably pitch another season with the Toron-
tos before becoming full-fedged Senator.
James Mcclure, Washington's Id Reli-

for catchers, heading such good men as
Mcfarland, Criger, Kittridge and Donohue,

batting. like all the other good stickers
this season, but batting at .274 he is as

lOtai Observation-Disclosures.
1t is believed that the democrats will sus-
tain losses in the extreme west but to
what extent is mere conjecture and at this
time there is not sufficient information in
the possession of any one to form reliable
opinion.
The populists are claiming that they will
increase their strength in the House, but
the political conditions existing do not JUS
tify these claims. In fact, they will do
well to elect eighteen members, which will
be loss of ten.
From the above it will be seen that the
chances are against the democrats captur-
ing the next House, barring a tidal wave.
which might give it to them by a hundred
majority. Such things have happened be-
fore and will happen again. 1t may be that
the people are disgusted with the incom-
potency of the Mckinley administration
and will resent, in many cases, nhuman
treatment of sick soldiers by casting their
votes against the republican party candi-
dates. If such should be the case the
democrats would win in walk
1t should be remembered that only once
in a quarter of a century has the party
administration in power retained control
of the House at the "off syear" elections
following the presidential election. This
single instance was in 1885, two years after
Cleveland's first election. Grant Hayes,
Garfield. Harrison and Cleveland (second
term) each lost the House. This fact of
itself gives encouragement to the demo-
Gratis. They say that the party in power
always loses the House because of the dis
appointment of office-seekers.
