THE DIAMOND
CLOSE BATTLE
 WITH SUPERBAS
Bronkie Was Found in But One Inning That Resulted Serious
 ly-0ther Games.

One of the best Sunday games of the season at Rockville was that of yesterday when Patsy Donovan s "Superbas', who are playing good ball in the National league, defeated the locals by the score of 4 to 3. The threatening weather and the un- interesting contests that the other major league teams that have ap- peared here furnished tended to keep the attendance down to about 2,000. But those that were present stayed until the last man died in the ninth as the game was interesting throughout, very snappy article of ball being played. Brooklyn had its regular lineup with the exception of Lumley and Maloney, but Batch and Berch filled in we'll the former get ting two hits. The trolley dodgers did not lag at all but put enough vim into their work to- show they were eXerting themselves. Water bury started off in whirlwind shape, Ward connecting with one of Bells breakers for a three sacker. The Brooklyn fielders were playing in close but moment later when Fitz- patrick drove a beautiful hit almost as far as Wards, getting two bases, they thought it was time to move out bit. With man on second and none out it looked as though Wa terbury would get more than one in the first but after "Fitz" had been sacrificed to third he was left. In the. fourth Brooklyn chalked up three. Lewis sent one to O'Rourke which was too hot for him to handle Jordan placed one in center, Burch sacrificed and Hummell sent a screamer to deep right for three bases, Lewis and Jordan scoring. Bergin, who by the way catches al- most eactly like his deceased brother caught, made a single and Jordan tailed. With the score up Water bury had hopes of victory but Brook lyn got the run it wanted in the eighth. Batch's two-bagger. followed by Lewis's single brought home the money as Waterbury could do noth- ing with Scanlon who pitched the last few innings.

TABULATED STANDING.
Entering Upon the Last Week the
 Clubs Stand as Follows,

It will be interesting for the read
 CTS of the Democrat to-day to look over the tabulated standing and see
 just how the teams have fared with each other during the season. The Democrat has made a special feature of about everything in connection with the local team and the tabulated standing, which has been continued
 from the first week, is one of the most important features. Holyoke cannot now be beaten out of the championship and from the looks Of things the teams will end in the same positions they hold in this standing. The leaders won three out of the four games played during the week and strange to say it, the team, that beat them, was the tailenders New London. Since Labor day Wat erbury has played but two games and she lost them both, to Holyoke and Springfield. The latter team cannot now oust the locals from the second position, but Norwich and Hartford may make it interesting for the Massachusetts city this week, in de- ciding how these teams will stand at the close of the week. There are only eight points between Norwich and Springfield and twelve between Hart ford and Norwich and this will be the race in the closing days of the league.
 Several of the series have been fin- ished as follows: HolyOke won the series from Norwich by 13 to ,, from New Haven by II to and from New London II to 4. Waterbury won the series from Bridgeport 13 to and from New London Is to 2. She tied with Springfield each winning g. has as yet won no series. Norwich did not win a series either but lost one to Holyoke Hartford won the series with New London 13 to ,. Bridgeport lost the series to winning only five games and won the one from New Haven 10 10 S. New Haven lost two series, but 1 games from Holyoke and s from Bridgeport. New London lost three series. winning but games from Holyoke. from Water bury and from Hartford. The fol- lowing is the standing. counting the games since Labor day. as those games were credited in the last tabu- lated standing:

THE AVERAGES HOW WE DID
 THE PAST WEEK McAndrews is the Real Leader of the Stickers and Lachance of
 the Fielders.

Mike McAndrews is practically the leader in the stick department with the locals, although Mike Lucia is still at the top, with his .421. Bas- tion and Bronkie are right behind the leader only three points separat- Ing Bastian and McAndrews and Bronkie being one point behind Bas- tan. Frank Fitzpatrick made a gain Of ten points during the week. There are but three men having over one hundred hits. McAndrews, Lachance and Swander. Bastian and Shincel Will have to hustle this week if they want to be in the swim in the one hundred hit class McAndrews has not yet passed the century mark in run making but is within three of it. With a good spurt he may come un- der the wire during the closing days. The following are the batting aver ages:

Had To Send A Scrub Team to Union-
 vile Because of the Price.
 Eddie Curley. the manager of the Waterbury Independents. answers the criticisms that came his way, be- cause of the team he took up to Unionville on Saturday, as follows: Sporting Editor of Democrat:
 Dear Sir:-Having noticed the ac- count of Unionville game Saturday between the town team and a scrub team from this city I would like to state few facts concerning the same.
 In the first place Manager Campion of Unionville wanted a game with the Independents and told him we would play his team for a guarantee of SIS. but he said he could not af- ford to give such a big guarantee and asked me to send over a picked team" He said, he would guarantee them s35."
 team any day next week a series of team any day net week a series of games for any amount they wish. and it's a good bet that the Inde- pendents won't go out, such as other teams in this city, for their car fare.
 Thanking you for this valuable space, remain,

Lachance is still the supreme mas ter in the fielding line, while Shincel who has been his companion so long is still almost by his side. There are only three who hold an average be- low the 300 mark. Hogarty, McAn- drews and Bastian. Lachance and Shincel both shine out brilliantly be- cause of the many chances they have Bastian and McAndrews have mad the race for the most errors with the odds in favor of Bastian. In the stolen base department those same two chappies have been having a pretty race and both are now on an even footing, with Lacnance good third in the race and Shincel, Fitz- patrick and Swander following them up well. The following are the field inc avara pas.

Bridgeport Once More Carried the
 Money Honors for Her Holders.

While there were only about Ealf As many runs made by the winner of the pools this week, as on the proceed ing one, Bridgeport in her six games played managed to cop the flag for the poolists. New Haven gave her a close rub and was only one run be- hind. Bridgeport also made the most hits. almost double what New Haven did in that line. Waterbury was the poorest sticker Is the whole bunch. Bridgeport led in another department, too. making the most errors of any of the teams. while Springfield made the least number.

FIGHT TO A
 FINISH NOW ON
City League Has Four Teams That Are Punched Closely Together
 ---Other Results.

}, The race is growing warm in the City Amateur league and the games played yesterday attracted good crowds despite the bad weather. The Washington Hills and the North Ends were the opponents in the first game. It was pretty battle for six innings with Carmody, who twirl- ed his first game of the season, doing good work for the Hills and Finn doing equally as well for the North Enders. In the seventh and eight in- nings, however, the Hills opened wide their batteries and soon had the game cinched, but errors helped along that run making as much as anything else. The lineup and score:
 Hills-Conrad c, Carmody p, Null ligan 1b, Smith 2b, Murray ss, Shove 3b, Bergen If, P. Lawlor of, Phelan If.
