SHUFFLING PLAYERS
FAILS TO IMPROVE
CANTILLON'S SQUAD
Same Old Errors, and Patten Shows Same Old
Weakness Gossip of Old and New
Washington Performers
BY THOMAS S. RICE.

Manager Cantillon made another shift
in his team yesterday, but It delivered
no goods in the face OF the hammering
Patten received and the booting the ball
got from the Washington inhelders.
Putting Altizer on first is evidently
merely an experiment to relieve Blank
enship and give Smith, the new short
stop from Galveston, Texas, an oppor-
tUnity to show his ability. Smith ac-
cepted six chances without error. and.
while he did not get hit, walked and
scored. O'Brien went TO third in place
OF Shipke, to bolster up the batting
strength OF the team. which probably
means that Shipke. despite his great
nelding at times, will go to the bench as
utility player, and O'Brien will have
a regular berth at third. where he was
playing when Washington got him from
Cleveland last Saturday.
This shift puts Delehanty back at sec
ond. where he seems able 10 work better
than anywhere else.
Clymer's weakness in throwing to the
plate on left field hits has been pointed
out number OF times but he is ex-
pected TO remain in eft field except
when playing those cities which have a
sunheld IN left. Then Ganley, who is
the sundog of the league, will move TO
the glare. In Washington right field
has the sun, hence Ganley's retention
there.
