Chicago. May 29.-Just at present
the National league race looks like
a better battle, with several teams de-
manding an even chance for the hon
ors. The fine start that the Tigers
got In the American league race, add
ed to the fact that all the world loves
n champion. causes many to think
even now that Detroit is going to run
away with another flag In hollow style.
But, Of course. the Tigers, grand
team though they are, still are long
way from being out of the woods.
Their slump will come some time dur
ing the season, or perhaps several
times, and 1t will be extraordinary IL
they are to hold the lead all the way.
Tigers VIII Hit Snag.
Jennings team, being both fast and
young-two mighty important factors
in the spring-naturally got the jump
on the others, and so far has refused
10 relinuuish its lead. That the Tig-
ers are vastly improved team over
their last seasons form there can be
no doubt They are better In every
way. But the way is long and full OF
pitfalls, and many hurdle will be
slipped in front OF the Tigers before
they are through.
The National league strife is high
ly interesting and hard to guess, be-
cause of the important changes in
so many of the teams. The champion
Cubs, tbree-time pennant winners,
twice worlds champs, founded In 1876,
and all that kind of thing. are not as
good as they were last year. when
they won out only by the skin OF their
teeth, and because McGraw forgot to
hang a red lantern on second base,
But the team that gave the Cubs
their hardest fight-the Giants-are
not as strong as they were last year,
either
The Pirates and the Phillies have
improved, so that gives the old league
race a taste of spice. Pittsburg has
started out splendidly, and If Abstein
continues at first sack UP to his early
standard Fred" Clarke's team will
will represent the National league in
the next worlds series.
The poor start made by the New
York Giants brought loud outlaws in
some quarters and woe TO others. A
combination of circumstances hinder
ed the Giants at the start. McGraw
was under the weather Tor many days
his pitchers-notably his stake horse
Mathewson-were slow in rounding
to; Doyle, one of his best hitterS, was
laid up, and there was no Mike
Donlln to belt in the runs. But "Mugg
sy" has an abundance OF good mater
ial from which TO build up his team
and there Is no use counting the
Giants out. They are pretty sure to
come in strong within a few weeks
and it is safe bet that Donlin will
be back in the fold by July l.

al league contenders is just about
nullified.
1t is quite possible that McGraw Will
have another star in his net before
long. Jimmy" Callahan. the former
manager of the White Sox, is likely to
break back into big league baseball
and McGraw is after him. Callahan
until very recently had been an out
law" since he failed to report to the
Sox in 1906. His semi-pro activities
here gave the national commission so
much trouble that 1T was easier to
reinstate him than be fighting him all
the time. So Comiskey released Cal
lahan from his Sox obligations entire
Iy and he became free agent.
From the eagerness several big
league managers have shown to sign
Callahan after his three years Of re-
tirement from the fast company IT
may be seen what a dearth OF good
outfield talent there is. Since Gala
han quit the Sox Comiskey has tried
over twenty outfielders and not one OF
them has shown onehalf the talent
that "Cal' possessed. Here he is at
the age of 35 and half dozen man
ayers are ready and anxious TO pay
him fancy salary. That shows how
few of the young players come through
with the goods.
Maps Will Soon Climb.
The difficulty that the Sox and
Cleyelands have had IN keeping up
around the 500 mark so far hasn't
discouraged their armies OF admirers,
who really didn't expect those vet
eran players to do much pace max
ing at this stage of the race. If the
Sox are in fourth place by the end OF
their first trip east, which ends the
last of June, their rooters will be
more than pleased. Comiskey has a
staff of great pitchers, but it is doubt
full II the rest of the team gets into
championship form within thirty days.
The excellent twirling Will probably
keep the team within distance of the
leaders unti the regulars get to hit
ting better and acquire more team
work In the field,
All kinds Of combinations have been
tried in the outfield to I'LL the gap left
by Fielder Jones' resignation. There
have been twenty hits to center so
far this season that Jones would have
converted into outs. That's an awful
percentage to be missing and may
prove fatal to the teams chances.
The Clevelands aren't likely to wof
~ their fans by staying In the ruck
long The invalids are getting back
into the game, and -'nen they all get
right there is going to be some hard
work cut out for the other battlelt3
for pennant honors.
The Washingtons showed excellent
form here last week in the field, but
were not strong at the bat. The Sen.
ators had losing streak OF six
straight games and blew every one OF
them by one tally. That was due
solely to the light sticking. Cantillon
had his team going great guns in the
field, and his pitchers, especially
Johnson, looked good, but the team
wasn't in swatting mood,

TO UNTANCLE STREETS

An ordinance was introduced in
the council last evening by Coun-
Gilman John Gray to change the
names of about 100 streets in the
city. The plan is to have the
names of streets running across
the city conform. In some in
stances one street has four or five
names from one side of the city
to the other. This is particularly
true in regard to the avenues run
ming east and west. Where it is
possible the names will be changed
10 give one street the same name
across the entire city.
