/ :; Three pitchers in the American
! league this year. are doing what Ed.
Walsh did last year-keeping a team
In the running for a pennant. &
!. These three are Krause, the Won
derful southpawe of the Philadelphia
Athletics, who up to the present has
won ten games and lost but two, Null
lin of the Tigers, with record of Is
won and four lost and Joss Of Cleve-
land with II won and three lost.
Remarkable what one man can do
for a ball team. These three men,
the three leading pitchers of the
Junior major organization, have prac-
tically put and held their teams In
the running. T.
Had Mulling showed the form he
displayed last year where would
Hughey Jennings and his Tigers be?

And II Joss had not displayed such
grand form, where would the Maps be?

+. None of these teams Is regarded as
a ''one-man team" Yet one man on
each has been almost entirely respon~
stble for the success Of each. .
Krause, generally regarded as the
find Of the year, comes from st. Mary's
college Of California. Out there he
was regarded as a great pitcher In.
the college class. but few Of his;
friends ever dreamed that he would
soar to the height he has attained this
season-and the year only half gone.
1t has been claimed that Krause&
owes much OF his present position to
the fact that Hal Chase, premier first
baseman Of the New York Highland;
ers, while a coach at the Catholic in;
stitution on the coast, took special in
terest in the young fellow and showed
him lot of tricks. Later in the Cali
ifornta State league Krause got some
experience and is being polished OH
nicely now under the guidance of that
sleek old baseball general, Cornelius

PULLIAM ISSUES A RULE
FOR OVERTHROW BALLS
Of Protested Game Played Between
Pirates and Brooklyn.

An official order closely defining the
ground rules relating to overthrow
balls has been issued by President
Harry Pulliam of the National Baseball
league.
President Pulliam sent the order to
all club president and managers, CIV
ing notice of the change, which says
that In future umpires are to Judge of
where the base-runner is when the
overthrow is made and the base-run-
ner is then to be allowed to go to the
base for which he was headed and
then take one more.
The change in the ground rules gov
erning overthrows into the crowd or
into stand is the outgrowth of pro-
tested game between Brooklyn and
Pittsburg
The new order says:
Owing to confusion that has result
ed as to application Of ground rules,
the following instructions to umpires
will be in force on and after this date
when thrown ball goes into a
stand for spectators or over or through
any fence or into the players bench
whether the ball stays in or comes
out) the runner or runners shall be en-
titled to two bases. The umpire, In
awarding these bases, is to be gov
erned by the position of the runner or
runners when the throw Is made.
with spectators on the field, if the
umpire determines that runners shall
be entitled to two bases on a ball
thrown into the crowd, then the posi-
ton of such runners on the bases shall
be reckoned from where they were at
the time the ball was thrown. This
being matter of fact and judgment,
the umpire is the sole judge

MIKE DoNLIN 10 MANAGE ......
THE PHILADELPHIA TEAM
Former Giant Traded for Magee and
Moore and VIII Succeed
Murray.


Mike Donlin will play at the Polo
grounds in New York city again this
year after all. But it will not be in
an effort to help the Giants In their
stern chase for the National league
pennant, for he will wear a Philadel-
phia uniform, having been secured as
playing manager of the National
league team there, according to the
latest report. The story says that
Felix Isman, the real-estate operator
and theatrical man, has bought an In
terest in the club, having acquired
his stock from the estate Of the late
Israel w. Durham, and that he had
dismissed Billy Murray, who went to
Philadelphia from Jersey City to man
age the team two years, ago.
Some sort of trade has been made
with the New York club, and 1T Is un-
derstood, although no official con-
firmation Of this can be obtained, that
Sherwood Magee, the hard-hitting left
fielder of the Quakers, one of the best
outfielders in the game, and Earl
Moore, the old Cleveland and Yankee
pitcher, who has shown signs of re-
crudescence this year under Murray
after spending some time playing with
the minor leagues, are to finish the
season in New York uniforms.
Murray was asked to accept Donl1n
as a member of the team and as man.
ager. On his refusal he was asked
to resign, according to Mr.. Isman, and.
as he would not do so he was dis
missed. Murray is stakeholder In
the club, but his stock constitutes a
minority holding. There have been
many rumors as to the prospective
change in ownership Of the club, some
reports having it that Murray was to.
be full owner, while others said that
Lew Moren, the pitcher, was to &C
Quire control.
Murray said that he had three
years contract with the club to serve
as manager, and Mr.. 1sman, admit
ting this to be true, said that con-
tract had no force unless its terms
were met. It is thought likely that
Murray will take his case to- the ma
tional commission and possibly to the
courts.

new PLAN TO SETTLETHE
WORLDS CHAMPIONSHIPS
Idea 10 to Substitute lnterIeaque Series
for Present Method-Would
Increase Interest In Game,

The National and American leagues.
the controlling forces of organized
baseball and the major leagues of the
country. are contemplating a change
Of schedule and a new plan which. it
is said, will revolutionixe baseball.
The idea, which has met with in.
slant approval in all directions. is to
abandon forever the worlds cham
pionship" contests between the win
ners of the two major leagues and sub
sutute general engagement between
the teams Of the National and Ameri-
can leagues In a grand championship
series to follow shortened season for
the two leagues. .:,.:s@,. y
The proposed change almost has
been forced upon the major leagues be-
cause of conditions arising from the
keen fight for pennants, which give the
victorious teams in each league the
right to engage in post-season series.
Further, the cry. of such a prize has
brought the club owners and the men
who control baseball to realize that the
honesty OF baseball itself is threatened,
and to avert this danger they are
evolving new scheme to decide the
championship-and one which seems
to solve the problem. :"s= ..'..-

probably will be called upon to In
idorse the proposal, that the National
