Manager James McAleer is apparently
making good his threat to take three
straight games from the Senators, as his
St Louis aggregation once more defeated
Washington yesterday in the mound city
by the score of to 3. BY winning yester-
days game the st. Louis lads head the
championship procession, and there was
great JOY in the camp of the Browns last
night.
AL. Orth did the twirllng for the Wash
ingtons and he was hit fairly hard, al-
though several of the Browns drives were
of the lucky order Back of Orth the Sem
ators' fielding was little off color two er-
rors by Lee and one each by Delehanty and
Ryan giving the st. Louis lads almost all
the runs they scored. The inf1eld worked
nicely, although the absence of Carey Is
quite a handicap. Coughlin, at third, had
busy day. but performed ntly. while
Ely and Doyle went through their days
work without a slip.
Red" Donohue was on the rubber for st.
Louis, and as he had excellent support his
work was unusually good. Anderson. on
first, dropped thrown ball, but the other
Browns simply ate up long hits or hot
grounders. But six hits were made off
Donohue'S delivery, Delehanty getting two
Of this number, one of which was a double
Sacker. wyatt Lee managed to catch one
of DonOhue's out-curves on the end of his
bat with that long swing and when the
bail came back to earth It was on the out
side Of the fence and good for home run.
The St Louis team got a good start MAX
ing two runs in the first inning. After
Burkett had been retired at first Heidrick
got single over second. Hemphill fol-
lowed with a long fly to Lee, which the lat
ter made gallant effort to field, but the
ball dropped out of his eager hands and
Heidrick raced home. Anderson then shot
a line hit into left and again Lee allowed
the ball to get away from him and Hemp
hill scored.
In the fourth the Senators hung up three
taliies assumed the lead. and the 5000
spectators settled back in their seats with
loud yells of disgust. Doyle was the first
man up, and he was retired at first on
through the infield, but Keister's little roller
to Donohue forced del" at second Billy
Coughlin very opportunely hit out a clean
single, and then the innocent looking Lee
walked up to the plate Lee got a full
swing al the ball, cutting 1t around into the
right field in graceful loop, and the last
the spectators saw of the ball was as it
disappeared behind the fence. This made
three runs and sent the Senators one run to
the fore.
But the Browns came right back in the
same inning. tore off three additional tallies
ana the game was never dangerous there
after. Anderson started the trouble with
a double to center. Ryan failing to get un-
der the ball after a gallant effort. Wallace
went out, Doyle to Delehanty. but McCor-
mick sent a. safe one into right field and
Anderson scored. Padden followed with a
skyscraper back of second base and Ely
and Doyle made try for it, but failed.
Mccormick reached third and Padden sec

play by Orth to COughlin to Doyle.

and last run, Wallace soaking out triple
