ATHLETICS HAVE
BUT SMALL HOPE.
Detroit Must Fall Down in Two
of Three Games to Give
Mack Show.
THEN QUAKERs MUST WIN ALL
Double-Header in Washington
To-Day, While Detroit Is
Travelling West.

With but three playing days left of
the memorable American League PEN
nant race, Detroit still has almost q
sure thing of the flag. Both the
Tigers and the Athletics won yester-
day leaving Jennings's fast team n
clean sixteen points ahead, or six
games won. Philadelphia will reduce
this lead temporarily If the Athletics
defeat Washington to-day, for Detroit
will be travelling to st. Louis. where Il
game or two games will be played
with the Browns Saturday. and one or
two games Sunday. Philadelphia has
four games to play In two days. while
the Athletics will play three games on
Saturday and Sunday at st. Louis, II
rein does not interfere.
htladelphia's only chance to win
The pennant now depends upon the
Tors of two of the three remaining
games by the Tigers, and even then
the Athletics must take four straight
from Washington to capture the top
round. If Detroit wins two OF its three
future games its percentage will be
500. while the Athletics by winning
all four of its games can only attain
.614. If the Tigers drop two games
to ST. Louis and win but one, and
Philadelphia win four games, the re-
suit will be:
Clubs. Won. Lost. PC.
philadelphia So 30 .6137
Detroit ......... 90 IS .6133
II Detroit should lose all three
games and Philadelphia drop one of
its four remaining games, Philadelphia
would still win by these figures: Phil
adelephia, .606S: Detroit, .6066. The
Athletics must play four games in two
days (to-day and tomorrow and this
without an intervening days rest. De-
troit has three games to play in two
days and q hard railway journey to
make to-day, but, It's opponents will
also have been travelling.
Altogether the most sanguine and
hopeful Philadelphia must admit that
Mack's team has but the slenderest
prospect Of winning out. II the in
jury to Cobb reported elsewhere. be
serious this will cripple the Detroit
team. Donovan, their star pitcher
worked yesterday and has been worked
hard recently. lie may break down al
any time.

Cleveland batters and allowed only
three hits, one OF them double by
Clarke. The Athletics won the game
in the third inning by punching hits
on Clarkson and scoring Two runs.
They added two more in the sixth,
making the final score A. The Napo..
leans could do nothing with Dygert; and
the Philadelphia was steadily and Drill
liantly supported throughout the nine
innings. The batting of 'Oldring and
Davis were features. the former get
ting triple and a single in three
times up. The Athletics had but one
outfield chance, Hartsel accepting that.
The game was one of the quickest OF
the season.
The Athletics leave tonight for
Washington. Plank and Bender Will
probably do the pitching to-day,

pitchers. possibly Waddell. may work

WASHINGTON. D. c., October g.
Although the Detroits needed to win
from Washington to-day in order to
.noke it impossible for the Philadel-
phias to close the gap in the cham
pionship series. Manager Jennings's
Washington friends waived the ele-
ment of doubt and presented him with
a floral horseshoe in token OF his
mems victory just before the game
started at American League Park this
afternoon The score by which the
retroits frightened their hold on the
remnant stood . to 3. the Washing
tons scoring only after Bill Dono-
Van. having the game safe, eased upla
bit and lobbed the bali over the plate.
Ty Cobb kept up his terrific clip at
the bat, getting three hits in four
times up. OLeary also was there with
the stick for two singles and double.
Kay did the best work with the stick
for the Nationals looming up in the
score with three singles. Four double
plays testify to the visitors snappy
work in the field.
III Right Fielder Tyrus Cobb. the star
batter of the team, was injured in the
seventh inning and retired from the
game. IT is hoped that his injury will
not be sufficient to keep him out Of the
remaining games, as his hitting and
fielding are badly needed. The score

development work is progressing OH
most extensive scale. The mine is con-
sidered as a mountain of copper ore,
with values running from up to 40 per
cent.
The report of Manager w. c. Orem
takes up the work done at the property
III great uctdll anu makes all exn1D1t
that the shareholders should be proud Of
1t is not often that company crowds as
much development and does as much
other business in year from the time
of starting as has been done by the Ne
vada-Douglas Company. Neither is it
often that such tremendous bodies of ore
are opened in so short time
Deep tunnels are now being driven
clear through the Douglas Mountain and
at the same time shafts are being sunk
to connect with them. Great compress
ors and hoists are being installed at the
present time and, before the present
year is over, the property will be in
shape to supply all enormous tonnage to
mills and smelters. That these will be
built by the company at the proper time
goes without saying, and in the mean
time there is every reason to believe
that the company will make large
amount of money by shipping its high
grade ores, taken out in development,
to outside reduction works.
