FIVE FAVORITES IN FRONT AT
GRAVESEND YESTERDAY.
Playing for Women's Golf Champion
ship-Good Field for Suburban
Handicap-Base Ball Notes.
American League Teams Standing.
National League Teams Standing.

Once more the news that came out of the
west last night was bad, the Chicago club
having defeated Washington for the third
consecutive time by the score Of to 3.
The only consolation that the local fans"
CLEANED from the contest was that the Sen
ators played good ball. but the champions
must have done ''leetle Bit better, just
enough to score the run necessary to win.
The champions are playing in unusually
good form at present, and very high order
of base ball is required to beat them out.
The Senator's playing in the field yesterday
was about equal to that of the champions,
but at the bat the Chicagos hit more time
ly with successful results.
Case Patten was on the rubber for Wash
ington and opposed to him was Virgil Gar
vim. Patten has been doing good work all
season. and although he lost yesterdays
game, his work was good enough to win.
Garvin held the Senators down to six hits,
Wyatt Lee being the only batter to get over
one hit off his delivery, and Catcher Bill
Clarke hammered out a home run.
This home run of "Bleacher Bits de-
serves special mention. it scored all the
runs credited to the Senators in the game.
1t all came about in the second inning,
when Carey started off with clean single
over second and Wyatt Lee sent a safe one
into left. Mr.. Clarke, from Baltimore, then
manner, and on the second ball pitched by
Garvin met the sphere squarely on the end
of the bat. Up. up up and out, out, out
sailed the leather toward the center field
fence. with Jones in full pursuit and Sena-
tor Bill chasing around the bases like
Splinter Duffy doing a hundred yards on
the cinder path Clarke got the best of the
start and also the finish, beating Jones'
throw to the plate and of course, sending
Carey and Lee across the plate ahead of
him.
With this good lead it looked as though
Washington was going to score its first VIC
tory on the western trip, but in the fourth
the champions unbottled the bothersome
bingle and neat sacrifice, with the result
that when the last man had been retired
the score was tied
With one out. George Davis singled and
Mertes was passed to first. Isbell theR came
to the front with a double, scoring the two
first named and a moment later crossed the
plate himself on Tom Days timely single.
With the score a tie the two teams strug-
gled along for the following four innings
without results, but in the ninth, after the
Senators had been BANKED. Chicago chased
the one run necessary to win over the
plate. Mertes began the trouble with a sin
gle and went all the way to third as Isbell
was being thrown out at first by Wolver-
ton. Tom Daily once more came 10 the
front with a clever pinch hit, and Mertes
trotted home with the winning run.
Following is the score:

a victory.

GRAVESEND RACES.
Five Favorites in Front, the Bookmak-

Five favorites and one second choice
swept the board at Gravesend yesterday,
and the lines were long behind the CASH
iers' boxes after every race. It was the
worst day of the season for the layers, as
every winner but one was at a reasonable
price and was heavily played. Smoke was
the only exception. She was a to on,

The Hanover stakes, for two-year-oIds,
was the days only fixture, and 1t was won
by the game colt Platter. who is much bet

tory largely on his own courage. David

style, and at that time many remarks were
made about the condition Of the man from
Oregon and the hope was expressed that a
frst-class man would be secured to race
him. Managers Klosterman and Osgood
have done considerable correspondence
since that time, with the result that Free
man and Champion were matched for to-
night.
This pair met in Boston last week in a
four-cornered event, Bobby Walthour and
Nat. Butler being the other contestants.
Champion won, but Freeman was the man
who pushed him the hardest. Tonight the
race will be ten-mile heat affair. and the
chances are that both men will go at top
speed from start to finish.
In addition to this chief event. several
amateur contests are carded and also an
exciting motor machine race. This latter
event Is positively a great attraction and
bound to be close, furnishing lots of ex-
element for everybody. The circus pro-
gram, that has been drawing large crowds
since the opening Monday night, rounds out
the evenings bill and furnishes plenty OF
entertainment for all the spectators.
