WASHINGTON MAY NOW
RECOVER LOST GROUND.

Washington, D. c., June 5.-The
Natu1als trip record for May was
very poor. They won one game in
Boston. Philadelphia. Chicago and
DeIroit, were defeated in four straight
at st. Louis and captured two in
CLEVELAND They seem to have come

Last week opened with a defeat
by Detroit, though Gray pitched splen
dldly, allowing only five men to reach
hrst, none of whom was left, some
thlng or a record. Four of them
scored and the fifth was caught
stealing. Gray deserved to- win, but
Ty Cobb's bat was too much in evil
dence and, as Washington scored off

chance. Mondays beating was a Sc

startling form reversal took place
on Wednesday, when Gray, for the
second time in the series, faced the
Tigers and completely baffled them.
Their one run resulted from their
only pass, while Washington accu-

The breaks came our way for once.
and the 3-to-1 score looked very
good. Gray pitched splendidIy all the
way and was at his best in tight
spots. Browne perhaps saved the
game in the last inning by a phe-
nOmenal catch off Crawford, when
Bush was on first.

MEMPHIS TEAM IS

Memphis, Tenn, June 5.-DemOTal-
