served that Killian, for the third time
on the trip, pitched a pretty good
game, only TO lose II by virtue of poor
batting support. Three hits, distribut'
ed AT appropriate points in Eds three
games. one apiece. would have given
him as many wins. AS matters stand,
the review of Eds work on the trip
Is OF necessity very like the reports OF
the work OF the colored troops In tho
Spanish war which, as the dispatches
always used to state. fought nobly.
But, II Ed hadn't much support In d
batting way. he did get some gilt-edged
work in the field TO help him out But
one misplay marred the work of the
Champs In the field and this did not
count in the scoring. Several brilliant
plays were pulled off. most prominent
being running catch by Sam Craw-
ford in deep center. which cut off what
seemed TO be a sure triple from Bar
RVS bat. The stunt brought even the
apathetic Quaker crowd to its feet.
At O'clock Today.
Burns for Chicago and either Speer
or Mulln for Detroit are the probable
pitching selections for today. The
game, as was announced yesterday,
will start at o'clock which will just
about give the Tigers time to get off
their train and dress for the combat.
The Sox are already here and put IN
a refreshing night OF slumber at tho

The Detroit club has released Tor

Tennessee college left-hander, VINO
will accordingly cavort this year on
the fields of the New York state
league. pitching for the Wilkesbarre
club OF that organization, and learn
ing the fine points of professional
baseball from no less a tutor than
Malachi Kittredge, the old-time Chi-
cago and Washington catcher.
Allen was not needed by the T1g'
ers who are already so we'll fortified
with colt twirlers that those now on
the list seldom have an opportunity
to toll. At Wilkesbarre Allen Will be
given a thorough trial with view
to Joining the Tigers next spring, pro-
vided he shows the necessary class.
Allen might have been placed IN
some Class A league but for the fact
that Detroit owned debt to the
Wilkesbarre team, which purchased
Pitcher Sterzer from the Tigers dur
ing the winter, only to have him turn
out a complete disappointment He
was TO have been turned back to the
Detroit management then, but Pres,.
dent Navin instead, handed him his
unconditional release and promised
Kittredge the collegian instead.
Detroit was one of number OF the
clubs that bid on the services OF
pitcher Schultz, OF the University OF

star pitcher OF the eastern college
arena. Schultz. however has refused
all offers and will remain In school
