PHILADELPHIA HOPEFUL.
Manager Duffy Believes His Team Has
Chance to Win Pennant.

Philadelphia. Aug. 15.-The Phillies
have exceeded expectations by their
brilliant work in the west, although
their showing is not altogether sur
prising to those who have noticed the
singular fact that all season long
Duffy's men have played better ball
abroad than at home and have won
great majority of their games on
foreign grounds. Following only an
even break here with Chicago the
Phillies won three out of four from
Selee's cubs in Chicago. 1t was a mat
ter of regret that the only Chicago de-
feat should fall to the veteran Nichols,
thanks largely to wrong decisions by
Umpire Bausewine. Following their
Chicago success the Phillies made al
most clean sweep of the st. Louis
series, winning four out of five games
from the Browns. This great trip work
has revived the pennant hopes of
President Shettsline and Manager
Duffy.
The latter in st. Louis fatty declared
his belief that the Phillies would yet
beat out both New York and Pittsburg,
basing his claim upon the improve
ment in his pitching corps and his
faith in Nichols ability to once more
repeat his former pennant winning
work for Boston. Be that as it may,
third place this year after a tail-end
finish last year will be glory enough
for the first season under the Shetts-
line regime.

Cleveland, o., Aug. 15.-As a direct
result of the agitation against pool
selling in Ohio, creating a dearth of
demand for horses, the famous Two
Minute stock farm, including Star
Pointer, 1853 Il, and many other well
known horses, will be sold at public
sale or in private this fall. This an
nouncement was made today by w. J.
White, the head of the chewing gum
trust, who owns the farm.
Mr.. White set the trotting world to
talking when he purchased outright
the late Gen. Howard's entire breeding
establishment, located near Buffalo, N
Y, consisting of nearly a hundred
head. The first stallion placed at the
head of Two Minute farm was the well
bred son of George Wilkes, Wilkie Col
lins, and his service fee was fixed at
5000. Shortly after Mr.. White paid
$11,200 for Russia. 2:291a, son of Nut

Der, 1898, Star Pointer, 1894, the
champion harness horse of the world,
was offered at auction in New York
and Mr.. White purchased him for

Despite the fact that the White Sox

honor.
Today he has the highest batting
average of any player in any league
playing under the national agreement.
This is equivalent to saying that he
holds the worlds record, for in no
other country has baseball been so
developed as in the United States. In
dependent ball players are not judged
by the almost military strictness which
an official scorer working under pro-
visions laid down by the national
agreement must follow.
