Manager Murray, of the Phillles. former
ly of the Jersey City Eastern League club,
returned yesterday from his trip to De-
troit. He was a spectator at the last two
games of the worlds series and spoke in
terestingly about the merits of the two
teams. IN Mr.. Murray's opinion the
Chicago Nationals are the greatest ag-
gregation of ball players that were ever
gotten together.
'"This talk about the Detroits being all
in from the effects of winning the Ameri-
can League championship is rot. The De-
troits played as well as they knew how.
Donovan and Mullin were as fresh as
though the season was just starting. 1t
was simply a case OF being up against the
best in the world, and after the first game
the Detroits never had a chanc to win.
eWhy, do you know that that last game
at Detroit, though the score was 2 to 0,
was not even close. Chicago had the game
well in hand all the way, and the Tigers
didn't have a ghost of a show to get a
run. | am sorry for Detroit, too, as l like
Jennings, and was hoping for his sake
that Chicago would lose the game or
Saturday.
II was talking to Jennings before the
game last Friday, and told him he was UT
against the toughest proposition of his life

OLD TIMERS
BACK ON
DIAMOND
Famous Baltimore
Champions Defeated by
Present Orioles, 0tO5.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 15.-After being scat
tered about the country for eleven years,
the famous Baltimore pennant winners,
who won the National League champion
ship in 1894, 1895 and 1896, reassembled
yesterday in honor of homecoming week
and lost to the Baltimore Eastern League
team after a plucky battle by a score of
s to 5.
In spite of the chilly weather, there was
a crowd of more than 5000 persons to well
come the return of the players who made
Baltimore the biggest city on the base
ball map for n period of three years, Eli
thusiasm was intense, and the veterans
monopolized the applause. although they
were playing against the popular present.
day team.
All Of the old champions were on hand
excepting Hughey Jennings, who was de-
tanned in Detroit, and John MoGraw. who
promised to appear, but failed. These
players may be mere to participate in the
two remaining games of the series.
There were enough of the old idols on
land TO stir the crowd Foremost among
them was Wee Willie Keller and Joe KEEL
ley, who formed one-half of Baltimore's
OH famous big four. Jack Doyle, first
baseman. had a great reception. He COW
cred second base, which necessitated
switching old Heine Reitz to third.
Ala Gleason guarded the shortstop spot,
and played the star game of the after
noon. Roaring Bill Clark, the catcher,
was at fist base, while Wilbert Robinson,
an old Hanlon mainstay. was in his ac-
eustomed place behind the bat. Walter
Brodfe, who was with Newark two years
ago, was in centre, and did not seem a
bit slower than nine years ago.
All the champions, in fact, showed
flashes of their old-time sprightliness and
ge%neralship, and gave their more active
opponents a hard tussle.
Bill Hoffer was in the box, and for seven
innings showed hat he was the wizard OF
old. The strain was too much on the
veteran, however, and he weakened in the
eighth. when the young Orioles batted oui
enough runs to win.
Dan Brouthers, at one time the cham
pion hitter ia the major leagues, was
among the substitutes. Manager Ned
Hanlon, wao discovered the Baltimore
stars and plotted them to three pennant
victories, directed the play from the
bench.
Tim Hurst and Belts, old Baltimore
favorites, umpired.
Governor Wakefield was present with
other State and city officials. He threw
out the ball which started the game.
Score.

SECRET WORK
in TIGERS
LAIR
Gates Locked to Undergradu-
ates at Princeton Villa
nova Game Next.

PRINCTAON, Oct. ia sign was yes
terday tackled up at the entrance of Uni
versity field which read Secret Practise
Today" and a big crowd of undergraduates
was disappointed. This is not, however,
much of a sprprise, because the coaches
had limited that they wanted to try out
several new formations which could be bet
ter worked out behind closed gates.
Until the next game with Villanova to-
morrow, at least, spectators will be ex-
GUIDED from daily practise. This was an
nouneed here officially last night. How
long the mysterious work will be continued
after that remains entirely in the hands of
the coaching staff.
A statement was given out after the
practice yesterday. Two halves lasting al
together twenty-five minutes were played
and the varsity reeled off three toucli-
downs. The play was for the most part
open, Orr and Harlan doing the kicking.
Orr has just broken into the game after
an enforced absence and he is a chap that
will bear watching. He possesses marked
ability as a punter, while he Is heavy and
fast, too. A reliable substitute with bulk
Is needed badly In the backfield now. Orr
looks like the man.
1t was intimated by the coaches thai
several of the varsity players are in very
poor physical condition MS a result Of re-
cent scrimmages and games. The scrim-
mage yesterday was ragged in the ex-
IRENE. There was a decided lack of dasii
and 60 which has characterized the Tigers
performances hitherto. Some time was
spent in perfecting forward passes and new
tricks, although there will be little call for
the latter.
Two other coaches besides the regulars
were on the scene yesterday. They arr

ton of his stomach. Both Baum and
Menagh should be heard from this year,
Menagh especially. as he has been run

afraid of entertaining he has not been
with the squad for the past week. A
great deal of rivalry has come up in the
past week between Pete o'Toole, who
has oeen showing his heels TO most of the
squad. and several of the runners, who
have trained up to put young O'Toole out
of the running. But as O'Toole is a
strong runne they rave so far failed
to DO so. and if he does not suffer from
entertaining he may be heard from at
the Princeton meet this year.
