National League Teams Standing.

Manager LOTUS thought he had discov-
cred new pitching phenom in Wyatt Lee
after the twirler's great work in two in
nings Sunday at Detroit, and decided to
send him in against the Tigers yesterday
afternoon. Lee had plenty of speed. but
his curves were small and not at all de-
ceptive. The Detroits had been waiting for
just such a pitcher, and proceeded to bat
Lee almost at will When the nine innings
had been finished the base-hit column regis
tered eighteen for a total of twenty-one
sacks, and the Senators were of course de-
feated the score being IS to l. Lee has
been playing the field almost all season,
and IS doubtless out of form, his work Sun
day being effective, doubtless on account
of his speed coming late in the game. He Is
a splendid fielder, and with a little more
batting strength would be a wonder.
Opposed to Lee on the rubber George
Mullin and the Senators were puzzled by
his speed and curves throughout the game.
Only five hits could be made, and of this
number Jack Doyle captured two. Keister,
Ely and Drill were the other fortunates.
These hits Were well scattered that no
runs could be obtained.
The Senators made their solitary run in
the first inning on DOyle's single, a steal
and another single by keister Thereafter
the WashingtOns had to be content with
getting men far as second base and in
only half dozen instances did the Sena-
tors get there.
All the brilliant fielding in the game was
done by the Detroits, all the chances offered
to Washington being easy. Lepine made a
wonderful catch of EIy's fly in right field,
the ball being captured shoe-high and as
result Coughiin was doubled at second.
Dick Harley also made a fine catch of
Lees fly. the ball coming down in the De-
trolter's hands the off side of the club
house after a fifty-yard run.
After being shut out in the first inning
the Detroits started up business in earnest
in the second. Three runs We're chalked up,
| and in the third three more tallies were reg
| istered. The batting streak continued in the
| fourth. and a quartet of tallies were made.
| For three innings the Tigers rested, but in
| the eighth they went to work gain. and an
| other trio of runs resulted, making the
/ total 49, very uniucky-fOr Washington.

place, but the real honors belong to Lave

while "Mr. Roslyn" (Mrs. Harry Payne
Whitney and Mrs. H. B. Duryea) won the

Thirteen animals of high class, among the
lot being Advance Guard the best horse

the close of the betting. There was great

Mr.. Pettingill was again unfortunate in
his attempt to get the field off on even
terms. Half Of the horses those near the
outer rail particularly, received such bad
start that they were practically left. Those
next the rail Jared better. They secured a
big advantage and had the contest between
them all the way.

success by lashing out with her heels and
severely kicking two dangerous rivals

collapsed so suddenly that he was swal-

the Jolly Fat Mems Club Of this city and
the Eiks of Elizabeth. ~. j., was witnessed
