Americans Not in 1t.

after seeing the New York Ameri-
cans play I must hedge on them so far
as their chances go to have a look-in
for the pennant next fall, or even of
finishing in the first division" said
Horace Fogel, ex-manager of the New
York National League team. They
certainly have no business to beat out
the Athletics, Boston, Cleveland, and St.
Louis, and for that matter, also Chicago.
New York has a great staff of pitchers
and a fast outfield, but that is ALL It's
infeId is far from frst-class. and the
team as a whole is very weak in batting.
there being only three or four good hit
tiers in the entire outfit
Against good pitching this team Will
have trouble scoring many runs, while
its rather rocky infield will often give
the other side enough tallies TO win
games. Unless New York vastly i'm
proves its infcId and gets some hitters
IN it, the American League Will not
score the triumph in Gotham it has been
anticipating, especially with the Ma
tional League team over there pretty
well up in the race and its grounds so
much more accessible
The combination of a losing team and
grounds so far out of the way as to be
almost inaccessible, or at least very
inconvenient and hard to reach, Will
certainly cause disappointment TO Ban

lean League

Origin of Hit and Run.

Inside bail" IS what the scientific
end OF the game is termed, and the hit
and run" play, which today is the acme
of team work. has won many a contest
for a nine physically weaker than an op-
posing one. OF this method Of play
Joe Kelley says: None of us had
ever heard of a hit -and-run game un-
til it came uD accidentally the first day
of the season OF 1894. We were play
ing in New York. McGraw got on first
base and started TO steal l saw him
going, and when the ball came over the
plate I swung for it. Johnny Ward had
left his position to cover second base TO
get the throw, and l hit through his
position. McGraw went TO third. and
that play won US the game. which was
close. The play struck US as being a
corker, and we all remarked about it
after the game. The next morning we
were all al the park early and practiced
that play. We fixed up . sign and work
ed il successfully during that series and
beat New York three out of four much
to the surprise of the New York play
ers and Johnny Ward. We played it
all that season. and l venture to say
that the season was almost half over
before any of the other teams got on to
what was bringing Us so many victories.
Ned Hanlon says that the Detroit team
played it back III the SOS, but if il IS
the case 7 do know that he never men
toned the play to us previous to its ac~
cidental discovery"

the donor of the Temple Cup, is in

Although not financially interested in

enjoys the sport just as much, and eX-
pressed much regret this morning that
there are no games scheduled for Wash
ington at this time.
He said: II think baseball has more
admirers than ever, and I know that
Pittsburg has many more than formerly.
Washingtons team is showing up
stronger this season than last, and l
would not be surprised TO see it in the
first division at the end of the year. The

BUSINESS HIGH SCHOOL
EASILY DEFEATS EASTERN

The Business and Eastern High School
teams crossed bats at American League
Park yesterday afternoon in one of a
series of games for the championship
of the local high schools. The Business
ball players easily batted out a victory,
winning by the score of 13 to g.
With the proper kind OF support.
Kaiser would have shut out the East
ems. as he kept their eight hits scat
tered throughout the nine innings.
Linthicum pitched a good game for
Eastern. but the support given him was
saffron hued. He allowed business but
five hits, still they piled up thirteen
runs. The Easterns' fielding was de-
cidedly ragged, and their errors footed
up in the double figures
The feature OF the game was the all
around playing OF Fitzpatrick. Business
captain and shortstop- Fftz got in the
path of everything that came his way
and accepted all OF his nine chances
gracefully. The score by innings:

Ii the Board of Education or the prin-

allow such absolute injustice as this to
triumph, the sole hope of the Business
team lies in the righteousness OF it's
cause and the small chance that the
board, unable TO reduce their hearsay
evidence to positiveness, will reverse its

JACK O'DRIEH STANDS
HART OFF TO A DRAW
Philadelphia Gave Away Twenty
four Pounds in Weight.

PHILADELPHIA, May 6.-"PhiladeI-
phia Jack" o'Brien gave away twenty
four pounds in weight to Marvin Hart, of
Louisville. and stayed six rounds with
MIN at the Penn Art Club last night.
The result was a draw.
The bout was fast. Despite the fact
that the PhiladeIphian weighed but 1854
pounds TO his opponents 1927 pounds,
Jack never hesitated 20 fight his man in
every round. For four rounds he pressed
his suit, and at that time had all the
better o. the game Harris left eye was
nearly closed, under his right eye there
was a big cash, and his nose bled pro-
fusely.
IN the afth round for a minute Jack
continued to lab his man easily. Then
Hart changed his tactics of swinging for
the mead, and instead, drew O'Brien into
some infghting.
Hart sent his LETT to the body hard.
Jack was Jared, but came back gamely.
With an uppercut he started the South
erner's blood flowing again from his
nose. Hart missed a left, but like
fash, sent IN his right twice TO the shifty
Quaker's heart. Jack was nearly all n
as a result, and hung on to Hart's hips.
Referee Recap parted them by main
force O'Brien assumed the erouching
position he had maintained all along
and made noble effort to summon his
strength. Hart saw his advantage and
sent a left to the body. Jack went down
for the count. He struggled back 20 his
feet and kept feinting Hart registered
two more lefts to O'Brien's body and
they went 10 a clinch and the gong rang
while in this position, and the PhiLa-
delphian staggered to his corner.
Jack came back in the sixth quite
fresh, but it lasted little longer than a
minute. Once he went down TO avoid
punishment, but he was up quickly and
as he rose he jabbed his right and left
10 Harris jaw
1t was really anybody's fight at the
finish Had O'Brien been capable OF
registering a punch like he melted out
20 Hart in the third round, when with
a crashing left TO the Kentuckian's
chin he staggered the latter. a different
tale might be told.
