champion OF 1898. 1899, and 1900, will
meet one of the Doherty brothers, prob
ably the younger one, H. L. Doherty. to-
morrow in the finals of the champion

The Dohertys could play together. bat

it is believed that one will default, and
while it was thought early today that

game. the fact that II. L. Doherty beat
Ware this morning without eXhausting

opinion. so that this afternoon it seem

Whitman.
Both Whitman and the English player

| The head of the Brooklyn team-Sed
Hanlon, the best manager in the base
| ball business-was evidently mistaken
when he told a Baltimore newspaper re
porter yesterday that the National
League would be composed of twelve
clubs next season and that Washington
and Baltimore would be the Eastern
clubs to be taken into the old organiza-
ton.
/ With two teams in Washington, stock
| in either club would not be worth the
| paper upon which it would be printed,
| for while many persons patroniHe the
American League simply because there
is no other article of ball offered here,
were the National League TO invade the
Capital. the patronage would be divided
and neither team would make cent.
On the contrary. the deficit in both
treasures at the windup of the year
would be something frightful to contem-
plate, especially by the men financially
interested in the team.
There can be no honest denial of the
fact that there are plenty OF National
League admirers here, but there are not
enough to warrant the placing of a Ma
tional club in Washington.

against Detroit this afternoon.

Delehanty-the hard hitting DeIehan-
ty-had a grand chance to distinguish
himself in the second inning of the sec
ond game yesterday. The bases held
two Senators when he came to the plate
and, in addition, there were two men
out. but the best Delehanty could do
was to hit a little one down to Elber-
field, who had no trouble in retiring the
man running TO second.
In the first game Coughlin threw wide
to Carey in trying to catch Tiger, and
the ball bounded over into the bleach
ers. youth picked it up and hurled
1t over into the field to Carrick, who
was in the box. Casey and the other
Detroit men crowded around Umpire
Carruthers and insisted that the run
ner should be permitted to come home
on the misplay. but Carruthers couldn't
see it that way and the man was held
at first.
Coughiin hurt his hand while sliding
into second yesterday, but pluckily con-
tinued in the game.

Mullen then got good enough to serve
the ex-captain OF the Washington crew
with a waist-high ball. and then zip,
z-z-z-z. and the sphere was tearing a
mad course through the ethereal, in a
hurry to get on the outskirts of the
park.
II was a beaut of a drive and It
sent the local ball stock scooting sky
high, for everybody understood that
when the admiral trotted around the
sack circuit. behind Ely and Carey. that
1t was all over but the celebrating and
the telling 10 the folks at home how Il,
all happened.
And so II proved.
In their half of the ninth the brave
Tigers made a hard effort to increase
their run record, but they were not
equal TO the emergency. and the 900
ball bargainists left the park supremely
happy, confident in the belief that when
the locals take 10 the trail tomorrow
night that something will certainly hap

Western cities that are so soon TO be

A Good Opening.

The Senators started the second game
as If they were out for business.
Two runs came our way, to Lee and
Delehanty, the result of singles by Ely
and Keister, Caseys error, Lees steal
a base on balls, donated 10 Delehanty
and Keister's steal to second.
Carey got around the bags in the next
inning on a triple and Clarke's hit for
one base.
Doubles by Delehanty, Ely and Cough
lin in the. fifth and Keisters steal. a
base on balls and a passed ball netted
the locals three runs.
Nothing more was done in the run get
ting line until the eighth, when. after
Ely and Carey had hit safely, Admiral
Clarke punched out a homer over the
left field fence and clinched the affair.
The Tigers made start that made il
seem for the time being as if they would
prove dangerous before the game was
over, and so they did. but not after Bill
Ciarke's mighty crack.
Gleason got home in the second in
ming on base on balls, an error con-
tributed by Coughlin and Mullen's safe
hit.
Four errors in the third inning-made
by Carey, Orth and Lee. the last-named
drawing two misplays-besides a base
hit by Barrett, enabled the Detroiters
to get two runs TO which they were not
entitled and made the ultimate winning
OF the game a more difficult matter than
1t should have been.
A hit on which Elberfeld was retired
in the fifth and two bases on balls and
then drive over the left fence permit
ted Casey, Barrett, Holmes and Beck to
tally. but after this the men from the
Michigan town were not able to get d
man across the plate, although they Ger
tainly would have done so had II not
been for a sensational catch of Caseys
long drive to deep right field, which
Keister got with one hand after des-
perate run. This was easily the star
play of the afternoon and called forth
no end of applause.
The scores follow:

BASEBALL GOSSIP.

Papers in the Southern League cities
are saying all manner of nice things
about Second Baseman Jacob Atz. of the
New Orleans team. Atz is a Washing
ton boy. and 1t is predicted he will be
in major league company next year He
is said TO be too fast for his present
company.
Last year Atz was conceded to be the
fastest third baseman in the Virginia
North Carolina League. This year he
was shifted to second. and he has not
only maintained his reputation as a
fielder but he has developed into rat
ling good hitter
Atz plays short with as much cleve. =
ness as he does second or third. and
the critics of the game in the South
have placed him in class by himself
as brilliant fielder.
The Washington boy is said 10 he fast
in all the essentials of the game.
Atz has several offers for next season.

told of the hiding of the coin in the
