BLAMED
! FOR HIS ACCIDENT
Reckless Playing Caused
Spiking-Washington
Loses Farce,
By THOMAS S. RICE.

Did you ever see such doings as those
at our ball park yesterday. when New
York won by 3 TO a. Not since Brook
5yn, in the Union League-but what's the
use?
1.-The entire Washington club seemed
dazed. and probably was out OF sorts
after that long stretch in the pouring
rain in Philadelphia the day before.
Clymer and Street were particularly af-
fected by the sloppy seance in Quaker
town, but George Mcbride had made no
mention of being under the weather.
Yet that exhibition by Mcbride was the
prize illustration OF how not to cover
short that has been shown here this
year. il was all the more remarkable
because in Philadelphia his brave deeds
at short were the scandal of the Quaker
fans.
1t Is 10 be hoped that four rank mis-
cues IN one game is about all Mcbride
had in his system and that he will be
on the job this afternoon with both feet
and hands. for his hands were not
IN evidence yesterday

Ing he would not send him back TO New

very sore and pains him much. as a re-
suit OF the spiking he received from
Bob Ganley in the fifth inning yester-
day
The accident was the resnult o. good
baseball. and what the Washington
players contend wa~ me unnecessary
risk taken by Elberfeld. In the fftb
innings Ganley had walked DeIehanty
sent slow roller to the left of third
base. which pulled in both Conroy. who
threw out Delehanty at first. and FL
berfeld. Noting that third was uncover
ed, Ganley tried 10 take two bases on
the out. Elberfeld jumped back deep
into the line between second and third
and called for a throw from Chase. He
! got the ball so IurrieGly he did not have
lime 10 swing arOUn~ on Cfaniev in the
ordinary way. and. so the Nationals
contend. lUnged in front Of Ganlev 10

who was going at fun speed. with his

impact ofGanley's descending and spiked
z1oot. with the result that ElberfeId will
hardly be able to play for a month. If
