GIANTS AND CHAMPIONS.
The Way the Winners Are Sized Up
for the Pennant.


New York, May 9.-The New York
Nationals, who have Just returned
from Boston, believe that Collins team
will win the American league pennant
for the third time. They say that the
Boston pitchers will be more effective
this year than last season, and declare
that Jesse Burkett will be a tower of
strength when real warm weather
sets in.
McGrew's hirelings are highly conf
dent of capturing the National league
pennant this year. and are discussing disc us II
tween themselves and Collins men.
Roger Bresnahan said The Giants
would win such a contest surely.
''They have good pitchers, said
Bresnahan. land in Criger they have
a crack-a-jack catcher. They also
have some excellent felders, but when
it comes to playing the all around
game the Giants have them beaten.
The Giants are not inclined to to tine the
belief that the New YORK Arnerlc tSlll's
will gather in the pennant OF tLlaI
league.
