STANDING OF THE CLUBs.

TIE Richmond team is crawling up to-
ward ils top OF the ladder The Cham
pi51s took another game from Newark
yesterday, and demonstrated beyond ques-
ccl 20 the large crowd in attendance that
they are the equal. il not the superior,
o. any club in the Atlantic League circuit.
The local lads batted Ike fends. and so
heavy was the fusillade which they made
O. C0gan that Newark erstwhile steady
pitcher left his feet and went UP into the
air. Heretofore Cogan has been consider
"a inylncible. and when Newark desired
90 win a game he was put in the box.
Newark wanted TO win yesterday-indeed
SIZE wanted 20 win badly-and Cogan was
10 into the box.
SHANNON STARTED THE BALL.

taggar. and from that time on the Cham
pons lad the visiting outfeld star-gazing

mold, and success crowned his every ef-
fort The Newark lads tried vainly 10

lp' ol them and kept them guessing
