RAIN KNOCKED OUT
ATHLETIC-CHICAGO GAME

CHICAGO. H.. August 25.-Chicago
white Stockings and Philadelphia Athlet-
les did not get together here yesterday aft
ernoon for the final game of the season be-
tween the teams in this city. A heavy
rainstorm swept over the city shortly after
noon and prevented all possibility of play
Ing on the scheduled game.
President Comiskey held out until the last
minute. hoping against hope that the storm
would pass by so the game could be worked
in, but it was impossible. AS this is the
last appearance of the Athletics in Chicago
this season there isn't chance for this
game to be played Off. This is the first
game for either club that has gone by and
cannot be cleared Off.
Neither club Is sorry for let up of q
day. however, as neither is any too well
provided with pitchers and the two consecu-
tive double headers that were played ate
into the pile with surprising rapdity Con-
ME Mack used all of his available twirlers
in those games. Waddel breaking in twice.
Comiskey used five of his men, Frank Owen
being the only one not to get in against the
Athletics. But Owen has been Off his feed
for some time past. and using him yester-
day was taking a long chance. Manager
Jones would have put him In the box yes
terday had they played. for he had no one
else to. put in. so the canceling of the game
won't hurt the pitching department of the
White Sox or OF the Athletics to any ap-
preciable extent.

rubber of the series.

HILLEBRAND TURNED DOWN.
Big Pitcher Must Play With Nationals
or Remain an Outlaw.

CINCINNATI Ohio. August 2o.-The ma
tional base ball commission has issued a
detailed statement in regard to the case of
A. B. 7. C'Doc') Hillebrand, who applied to
have his name stricken from the reserva-
ton list OF the Washington club
The attention of the commission was
called to this case by the petitioner him
self
He contends that in October 1903. he en-
tered into an agreement in writing with the
Washington club of the American League
for the services Of himself and brother for
the year 1904 and that under said agree
ment he received $1,000 from the Washing
ton club. The player filed the agreement
as evidence. He contends that subsequent
ly to receiving the contracts. under which
both were to receive 1900, he notified the
Washington club officials that his parents
objected to him playing professional ball,
and for that reason he and his brother
never signed the contracts, and returned to
the Washington club the 81 900 that he had
received. He contends, further, that the
Washington club, under article VII of the
national agreement, was required to tender
him contract for the year 1905 previous to
March l thereof, and failure to do so
operated as release. and therefore the
players name should be stricken from the
reservation list of that club.
The commission states:
In carrying out the terms and provisions
OF the national agreement the commission
must be guided not only by the letter of the
agreement, but by. the spirit and intent
thereof
THE object in inserting the clause in the
agreement providing that a contract must
be rendered player previous to March l of
each year was for the protection of the
players and to prevent club owners from
carrying players on their reservation lists
without rendering the contracts within a
reasonable time, thus preventing the men
from securing employment at their profess
sion.
THE agreement entered into originally
between the Washington club Is a contract
under article VIII, section 2, of the national
agreement, whether the contract in it's reg
ular form was ever entered into or not.
That being the case the Washington club
clearly had the right to carry the player on
their reservation lists, thus protecting their
rights to him, until such time, If it would
ever come, that the player might determine
to play professional ball. They had right
to assume that the player did not intend to
do SO for the present, especially so as it is
admitted that the player did not answer the
communication of Manager Stahl sent to
him previous to March 1, and which would
have undoubtedly led up to the signing of
contract had this player so desired.
Under the circumstances the Washing
ton club does not lose this title to the
player, and his application is therefore, re-
fused. And in this connection 1t is well to
state that that club Is ready now to nego-
tiate for the players service, so that no
loss will be suffered by him If he desires to
play professional ball."

DETROIT, Mich, August 25.--I.ong Tom
Hughes found Detroit city much to his
hiking on this wind-up western trip of the
Nationals. Going into the box yesterday he
lasted just long enough to beat out the
Tigers by a score of 3 to ., thereby p1ac-
ing to his credit in this city two won games
as well assisting to make it a clean
sweep of the series of three for the Ma
tonals. Toward the finish the Tigers were
taking Hughes measure but he pulled
through two dangerous closing rounds in
safety.
Detroit is much subdued town as a re-
suit of this series. Each of the games
played here was a hard fought contest,
and yesterdays was the only one that was
really tossed off one bad Detroit inning
deciding the result. The series as a whole
is the best that has been played here this
year. Washington at its present speed
looks to have a good chance TO beat De-
troit out for sixth place. the thing that
Stahl admits that his hopes now center in.
All of the Washington runs in yester-
days game were made with two hands out
One came in the opening inning, when
Hickman singled to left and scored on
Anderson's triple TO the same field. From
that time on up to the fifth there was moth
ing doing. In the fifth came two more
tallies and a clinching of the contest.
There was one out when Heyden worked
killian for a pass. Hughes hit to O'Leary
forcing the catcher. killian grew unsteady
and passed Mil. This resulted in two tai
lies, as Hills hit to center barely enabled
Hughes to score from second Mil going to
third on the throw in. Mil and Hill tried
d double steal. Warmers throw to Schaefer
was a very bad one, bounding away from
the second baSeman, and Mil scored. Hick-
man, who was at bat when this play went
through, was an easy victim on the infield
After this inning the Nationals were not
dangerous.
For seven innings the Tigers were very
In that time. though there were two on
BILE by Stahl and a wild throw by Mil. The
frs real hitting was done in the eighth.
Warner opened this with a triple, and Kill
liam followed with a scratch hit. Cooeys
long fly scored Warner and put Killan at
second base. Schaefer, whose measure
Hughes had, struck out. Then Tom
got into deep water. walking Mcintyre and
hitting Crawford This filled the bases. but
there were two out and O'Leary was I'M
able to do anything other than fly to Stahl.
In the ninth they made another try.
Coughlin opened with wicked single, and
the next two men popped up. Killian hit
into left, and Anderson went out after II,
just missing the catch. Coughln scored.
and killian made second A hit by Cooley
would tie it up. but the best he could do
pull off great stop and throw.

TESTIMONIAL FOR HUGHES.
Washington "Fans" to Reward Tall
Pitcher for His Fine Work,

The remarkable work of Tom Hughes this
season against the Clevelands and his re-
cent good all-around performances has Gre
ated considerable enthusiasm in Washing
ton for the tall twirler. and several fans"
got together this morning and decided to
give him testimonial when he returns
home. All contributions can be sent to the
sporting editor of The Star. and the same
will be acknowledged through the paper.
Outfeder George Stone of st. Louis was
given a gold watch last Sunday as a re-
ward for the good work he has done for the
Browns, and his value cannot compare
to Hughes toward the Nationals. Hughes
belongs to the happy go-lucky sort and
needs to be jollied to get the best work out
of him. After the shake-up on the Ma
tionals' last trip to the west Secretary Mi
nor cornered Tom and had long talk with
him. He was made to see the error of his
ways and promised Mr.. Minor there would
never be any more trouble coming from

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
ST LOUIS August 25.-The Nationals
blew into St. Louis this morning in charge
of Manager Stahl to begin a battle for
last place with the Browns, and the series
promises to prove one of the most inter
es ting of the season.
Washington has been playing fast ball
on the present trip, while the Browns have
been putting up a grand game ON the home
grounds.
AS result of Washington's fast work.
the st. Louis team is still at the bottom
of the heap, despite its brilliant record
against Philadelphia and New York.
Strenuous times are ahead for the Ma
tionals during their stay in st. Louis on the
final trip of the season. Washington still
has two postponed games unplayed here
means that five games will have to be
played in three days. AS St Louis played
double headers Wednesday and Thursday
against New York. and the Nationals had
long trip from Detroit, but one game
was played this afternoon. Tomorrow
and Sunday there will be double headers
unless the weather prophet should ordain
otherwise.
Stahl still has hopes OF beating out De-
troit, and he said on his arrival today that
the feat was not by any means impos-
sible Detroit has been playing poor ball
of late and falling like spent rocket,
while Washington has been more than
holding Its own on foreign grounds. Stahl
figures that his team can accomplish
what Philadelphia and New York failed
take the series here from the Browns
With any kind OF break in Chicago this
will start the Nationals home in q good
position to make a hurrah finish and beat
out Detroit for sixth place.
With q good finish this fall Stah1 feels
assured OF his team putting up battle
next season for the leadsrship.

Manager Hughey Duffy of the Phillies

rated as the best catcher in his league and
comes highly recommended as a good all

Chicago defeated Philadelphia yesterday
after twenty innings OF sensational play

him. This promise has been faithfully kept
by Hughes, and his work has been nothing
if not sensational, demonstrating that the
tall fellow has his heart in his work, which
means a great deal to the Nationals. as
he is undoubtedly one of the best pitchers
in the business.
Hughes has established a wonderful rec
