an errorless game and hitting the ball
hard, the Detroits defeated the Newark
Eastern League team at this place yester-
day by the score of ) to 1. When the
Tigers took the field Cobb and Coughlin

DREYFUSS CLASHES
WITH McGRAW AGAIN

PITTSBURG, Pa. August 24.-John j.
McGraw and Barney" Dreyfuss have
clashed again. The New York team
reached here from Cincinnati yesterday
morning ready to play Pittsburg what
promised to be the most important series
in the league race.
The Sunday papers were placarded with
notices of a double header between the
two teams today. Both the Pitts5urg
team and President Pulliam appear to
have been asleep at the switch, however,
and no notice was served on McGraw of
intent to play two games on Monday, as is
required by the National League rules.
Yesterday evening McGraw said: pitts
burg cannot force us to play two games,
now that they have failed to give us
twenty-four hours notice of that inten-
ton. and the Pittsburg club will come to
me to see whether the two games will be
played. l certainly will not play two
games unless 1 see fit. I suppose we
shall play them out of charity, in order to
help Pittsburg out, since the team does
not seem to be able to draw we'll with sin
gle games
"Dreyfuss has no right to ask favors of
New York" resumed McGraw. Some
time ago we asked all clubs in the league
rush deal on. We asked waivers by wire,
and every club replied but Pfttsburg,
which refused to waive in that way. say
ing it must be done through the president
which would take ten days by mail. This
was all unnecessary, and don't see why
We should do anything to oblige the Pitts
burg club"

PUT OUT OF GAME
WITHOUT SAYING A WORD

Germany Schaefer Of Detroit and "Billy'
Sullivan and Fielder Jones of Chicago en-
joy the unique distinction of being put
out of ball games without uttering a word
to the umpire. Their offenses were clear.
ly cases of pantomime. What they said
about the poor arbitrator after being
elected will not be printed here. The
veteran Jack Sheridan tied the can on
Schaefer. while the cub ump Egan handed
out the decision to Jones and Sullivan.
Egan's trouble took place in Chicago,
He called one Of Walsh's spitters a ball.
Evidently Sullivan disagreed, for he care
fully brushed off the plate with his big
mitt. When he finished Egan told him
his work for the day was over and he
could hike for the clubhouse. He started
on his way and then Fielder Jones rushed
in to investigate. only to learn before he
had covered half the distance that he
also had been banished.
Schaefer. when at bat, disagreed with
Sheridan over a strike by brushing of the
plate with his cap. When he got through
with his job he learned that he was out
of the game. He GRATED all the way to
the clubhouse.
There has not been one forfeited game in the
Independence League this season. and President
Worfey is receiving congratulations from ali
league. Peace and harmony have prevailed from
start to finish. and every team viii have Its fun
share Of rooters to hack up the pennant winner
when the championship series is on.

age Of .304, while his average for the
season is .275, and, at the present gait

shortstop George McBride's great
work in eleven games. wherein he had

remarkable when 1t Is taken into consid
Grafton that the shOrtstop position is the

FOR JACKSONVILLE

SAVANNAH. Ga. August 24.-The close
of the South Atlantic League season Sat-
urday showed Jacksonville in the pennant
place with a percentage of .694. Charleston
bringing up the rear with 400.
1t is declared that the season has been
a disastrous one financially for most Of
the clubs in the league. Jacksonville, in

game has made money for the owners.
Savannah and Charleston, II is believed,
have come out about even. while Column

lost heavily. Financial matters will be
gone over at a meeting of the league
directors in this city today. Then plans
for next season will also be considered
