National League Clubs Standing.

Practically all chances of the Athletics
for the pennant went glimmering when they
were defeated in the first game of double
header with the Nationals yesterday. The
latter put up one of the snappiest games
they have shown for some time and with
the Weiscr Wizard in form there was moth
ing but defeat for the pennant contenders.
The games were played in mud ankle
deep. Everything possible was done to the
grounds TO put them in good shape, but
dirt mixed with oil and water Isn't the
incest thing in the world to play on. Fast
base-running was out of the question. Two
OF three of the two-bagsers would have
gone for triples if the ground had been dry
and hard.
At no stage of the game did the Athletics
show the same fighting spirit that was no
ticeable in the Tigers playing while here
When they got On the field they seemed TO
have lost all interest in everything but the
end of the season. They went aoout Their
work in a machne-like way, showing none
of that snappiness that contenders for the
pennant should be blessed with.
Walter Johnson was certainly in form
He allowed eight hits. but, with the eX-
ception of the eighth inning he kept them
as scattered as hens TEEN.
Eddie Plank showed some OF his old-time
form in spots; but when the Nationals got
TO him they did 1t in punches. In the sixth
three singles in succession Melted them their
first run, and in the tenth two hits, an err
ror by Monte Cross and bad throw to the
plate by Capt Davis put the winning run
across and the Athletics practically out OF
the race.
Had the Nationals put up the same game
against the Tigers that they did in the
first game yesterday there might have been
a different tale to tell about that fearful
series; but in the face of the strenuous bat
ting of the Tigers team on the face Of
the earth could have prevented their win
ming.

FOOT BALL SCHEDULE
BROADENS OUT
Harder Games for Many Of the
College Teams and Also Long
List of Games.

The foot ball schedule broadens out ma
terally today. There are harder games
for many of the college teams and also a
long list of games. A start will be made
at Princeton, the Nassau team being booked
to meet the eleven from Stevens University
an engagement that does not promise much
moro than trying out for the Tigers. The
YaleSyracuse game is more uncertain as
to outcome, Notwithstanding the fact that
Yale last year made her biggest point total
against the Syracusans. The New Workers
are as heavy as Yale and have the expert
ence of last year in mind. Yale has the most
versatile eleven on the gridiron, but will
probably have to play harder foot ball than
against Wesleyan last Wednesday.
Harvard will meet the University Of
Maine team and appears to be in no danger
of being troubled. The Crimson held Bow
dom safe enough, though making a small
score something Of no particular signif-
canoe with big teams at this time of the
year TIL. Pennsylvania Bucknell contest
should be interesting, Bucknell having
shown strength in ner two games. Brown
is due to tackle Norwich. the latter beaten
by Dartmouth, II to O. week ago. which
will be an incentive to Brown to make more
than twelve points.

and Marshall while their Annapolis riva s

rivalry be keener than at that between the
