National and American Leagues Clash

All that hot air talk at the opening Of
the base ball season to the effect that
the National league would "eat up

spoken. Not only has the National
league failed to masticate its rival, but
it has been forced to bite the dust Of
ignominy by the younger organization.
great deal could be said to subst IN.
tiate that statement, but it is not neces-
sary All that is needed is to refer to
the attendance figures when bob leagues
have games in the same cities. Figures
never lie.
The two leagues clashed yesterday at
Boston and Philadelphia. The story
was the same as on each previous occa-
sion they locked horns-the American
league won out. At the Quaker City the
National league team took on st. Louis,
and 1,173 persons witnessed the game.
while the Philadelphia American league
team wrestled with the Cleveland organ
ization in the presence of $50 fans. That
shows a difference of III in the attend
ance, and though neither crowd was
large the American league had the bes.
of it.
At Boston the test was more severe.
Both "bean eating" aggregations played
Chicago teams. The National league
"Hubites" did a double stunt. and the
attendance at both games was but $500
The American league teams played but
one game and managed to draw crowd
