American League Race.

There are exciting times ahead in the
American League pennant race. Nearly
every team in the legue has been
strengthened during the past week, and.
judging from the efforts put forth, there
is more than one team after the plumS.
Chicago is still in the lead by a good
margin, but had either Milwaukee or
Indianapolis been able to keep up little
hotter pace during the week it would
have been uncomfortably close for the
white stockings Comiskey's men carried
a good ambulance load of cripples on its
journey to Kansas City, and the blues
put the whites below the 800 mark.
The team seemed to take a brace after
it reached Minneapolis, and has put up a
strong game, and is now again on pros
perity row. Both Milwaukee and Indian
apOliS have been unable to get out of
each others way during the week, and
both have been sliding down the scale to-
gether. The downward tendency of the
boosters and brewers has saved the White
stockings from unpleasant company.
Detroit has been doing the leading
stunts in the race for the past seven
days. After putting the whites to the
bad they proceeded to heW their way
through the rest, and the tigers have
really become dangerous to the leaders
in the race. The white stockings have
only won five more games than the til
gers, and at the rate the wolverines are
playing it does not seem very long way
to the top. All teams have been alike to
them, and they have played almost as
well db1Od0 DIS at nOIIl6 NAT the SYM
pathetic, umpire-ehasing crowd of fans
at home, however, has been an aid to the
team goes without saying.
The teams below Detroit in the race
have been playing at their natural gait.
Cleveland has been making a brave eff
fort to catch up to it's early form, but
has found the journey rough. 1t took an
unexpected brace and captured two
games from Indianapolis Buffalo has
been playing in the Iuek since it's great

scented a strong front at the start and
took two games right off the reel. Two
ancient box artists were the cause of the
downfall of the champions in the last
TWO games, and Chicago succeeded in
breaking even on the series, which can
not be considered exceedingly compli-
mentary, being on the home grounds.

and soft coal. A little moisture mixed
with it made it pass for rain cloud On
the next trip the Brooklyns lost three
games in succession, and Hanlon got out
of the game imagining that he had re
ceived a stroke of heart failure. This
time the Chicagos have won two and the
Brooklyns have won two The total for
the series is four games won for Brook

other western mines shown evidence of
ability to do business after that pattern
it is fair to assume that the Brooklyn
players would not be SO far in the lead
today that they would be guessing what
kind of presents would be given to them
for winning the championship a second
time. Possibly the Broo1lyns are not
going to fare so well on their visit to the

falling back the remainder of the league

most prominent bidders.
Although the latter organization has

big fights it is said that the, principals

contest to take place at COney Island

treatment by the management of the

O'Rourke's club will offer 90 per cent of
the gross receipts.
