The seventh and deciding game will be played here Saturday. An ear-inspirin.s rally in the ninth inning by Pittsburg was stopped after one run was scored but three Detroit players were injured in stemm.ns the rush of Pittsburg runs to the plate
 I. Jones. the Detroit first baseman, was the most seriously hurt His neck ani spine were injured in a collision with Wilson at first base and this resulted in Pittsburg scoring it's run Of the session. Charles Schmidt. the catcher had his right leg badly gashed in blocking Ab- stein off the home plate in the final in hing. The play that finished the threat ening rally of the National league cham pions resulted in the injury of George Moriarity when he caught Wilson trying to steal third on Abbatichios strike out in the same inning. Moriaritys left knee was badly hurt when Wilson slid into the base
 T. Jones Badly Hurt.
 Tom Jones was so badly hurt that he was carried from the field in an un- conscious condition He recovered con seriousness in the club house and insisted that he be taken to his home rather than hospital He was taken home in an ambulance and 1t is practically certain that he will not be able to play in Satur- days decisive game. Schmidt, 1t Is thought, will be able to play and there is no doubt that Moriarity will be in the decisive battle. The injury to Jones neces- sitated the shifting of Crawford to first base, D. Jones to centerfield and the send ing of Mcintyre to left
 Detroit made on run in its half of the first. After D. Jones lined to Miller Bush walked and Cobb struck out. Crawford sent two-bagger to right, scoring Bush and Crawford continued to third on the throw to the plate.

Moriarity singled to right and Crawford scored, but Dele- hanty was caught trying to reach third, Miller to Wagner. T. Jones singled past Byrne and Clarke let the grounder get away from him, Moriarty scoring the tying run and T. Jones going to second. Schmidt walked, but the inning ended when both Mullin and D. Jones flied to Clarke

Jones high twisting fly that he got near the pitchers slab.
 Cobb's Long Hit.

Jones stole second and Bush drew another base on balls. Ty Cobb hit one with crack that could be heard far outside the grounds and it went far into the crowd for a certain home run had it not been for the ground rules which cut 1t to a two-bagger. D.
