If the Athletics keep up the pace they
have been setting on the present trip
for the next two days there will be a
grand chance for the Nationals to
tighten their hold on sixth place. The
champions are scheduled to play a dou-
Sox, and they are not apt to lose a ma
jority of these games to the Chicago
team. though they will by no means have
easy picking. In the meantime the Ma
tionals will be hooked up with the
Browns, which condition at least gives
hope.
Doc Ralston, though he got miserable

the Nationals with the stick, with an
average of .2S6. He has done all his hit

spots.
The Pitchers Protective Association has
for some time been advocating the re-
lease of Crawford, not only from Detroit,
but from base ball in general. but this
is the first time local fans have had the
startling information thrust on them that

Similarly the catchers are given a lot
of information regarding the fine points

things in base ball. but none other quite
so strange as the methods of achieving
success, as outlined by the afternoon
sheet. Messrs. Stanage. Schmidt and

of the public and to all of said batsmen
and backstops. 1t only shows. however,
how much more base ball may be learn
ed in the press box than on the diamond.
There is no doubt that Detroit would
like to get better men than Crawford, the
Jones family, Mcintyre and the three
catchers. The club also would like to get
better man than Ty Cobb, and dares
any one to produce him. Only the fact
that there is no unfailing source of sup
ply for such talent stands in the way.
1t would be splendid to sign up whole

Special Dispatch to The Star.
ST. LOUIS, September 24-At the ex-
pense of the despised and lowly Browns.
Jim McAleer, manager of the Taftville

down another peg in the American
League marathon. Unless he stays In
sixth position or even betters his standing
at the expense of O'Conner's troupe. it
surely will Indicate that something is
radically wrong with the Nationals.

charged with loafing on a thrown ball
that he missed week ago. However, it
Is said that O'Conner's real reason for
laying off the Texan is because he is a
dlsorganizer. Graham. a recruit from
the Jackson Cotton States League) team,
was tried out at the position, but be-
cause he threatened to have himself hit
on the head and other places by thrown
balls because Of his awkwardness about
the pillow he was laid off. Now the
hard- hitting Griggs is doing the stunt
on the initial pillow. At third O'Conner
is working Corriden, a recruit from the

fair fielder, but doesn't threaten to take
the automobile away from Lajoie or

averages were turned upside down he

PITCHER BILL BURNS
IS ON THE TOBOGGAN
Former National Is Unable to
Win Games for Cin-
cinnati Reds.

CINCINNATI, September "a. - Bill
Burns, the large lefthander, who was a
member of the Washington team a year
ago, had one very tempestuous inning
during the awful carnage of Wednesday,
Quaker struggle. In that one inning Tex
as Bill was given a whaling that made
his eyes bulge out till the. umpire imagined
a pair of animated doorknobs were star
ing at him. And. sad to say, it wasn't the
first good trimming Bill has received, nor
the second nor the third. Burns seems to
have fallen away most lamentably For
quite time after he became a Red he
was invincible. His work was of the
classiest order, and the skill he showed
against all corners was SO great that it
seemed plain where a huge mistake had
been made in releasing him from the
roster of the White Sox. And then, sud
denly. inexplicably. Bill began to lose.
It's a long time since Burns has won a
game, but he has lost about a harmful
since he began to fail. He seems to have
the same speed. the same curves-what
on earth can be the difficulty? Was
Comiskey right, after all? Is Bill Burns
simply morning glory, great for little
while and then graduating into the lemon
division, or is he just unluchy?

and as he's one OF the owners of
the Athletics and q strong Ameri-
can League sympathizer on the side
his screed is pertinent 1t follows:
There's one reason why the
Cubs should be considered the ia
vorite for the worlds series. They
are always at their best in the big
post-season series. The wonderful
defensive play of the Chicago bril-
gade and the subtle manner In
which 1t scores enough runs to win,
even If 1t makes fewer hits than its
opponents, make 1t the hardest
team in the major leagues to de-
feat. 1t is seldom that the Cubs
lose q game in which their oppo-
nents fail to secure a big lead.
Give the Cubs an even chance or a
handicap of one or two runs and
they are pretty certain to win out

Stallings Gives His Side.
NEW YORK, September 24.-George T.
Stallings, when interviewed by report
er yesterday. displayed his usual reticence
BY dint Of patient questioning ,Stallings
was induced to answer several questions
the answers to which, pieced together,
follow:
I do not and never have moderated
Chase's ball playing ability or his value
to the club.
He is the greatest first baseman on the
diamond when he plays game of which
he is capable, and for this reason I al
ways endeavored to humor him in every
way which was compatible with the good
of the team.
Results have proved time and again
that it Is the harmonious and smooth
containing individual stars which wins
in the end. Therefore, when most re-
luctantly came to the conclusion that
Chase was not giving his best efforts
to the club and was a source of discord. l
considered it my plain duty to the club
owners to state what believed.
'My first open difficulty with Chase
came in Detroit where a story appeared
saying that Chase was responsible for
the making of the team. AS Chase had
been with US but about two weeks in the
south, where the team was first nodded.
and as he had attended very few morn
ing practices during the entire season. I
considered this an injustice to myself and
the rest of the players on the club, who
were doing everything in their power to
turn out the sweet little machine which
the team now Is. more especially as be-
lieve that 1 had in the past proved my
ability as manager. / expressed these
views to Chase, and he promised to dis
claim and deny the story, which he
never did.
With other cripples getting cheerfully
out OF bed because they were needed, 1
thought that there were times when
Chase might have made little more
effort to return to the team after hav-
ing been given leave of absence to re-
cuperate from illness. but / always let
him use his own judgment upon points
like this and did not speak to him about
them. When l saw Chase fail to get
balls that a fielder less skillful than he
should have got and also fail to carry
out certain plans that l believed him
capable of making, I was forced to the
conclusion that he might have done more
for the team.
''Of course, a man may feel morally
and absolutely sure of things of this sort
and yet find them difficult Of proof.
Don't believe for a minute that the
team will lie down because I am away.
They are too good bali players and too
fine a crowd of men for anything like
that. NY last request and demand was
that they fight for every game as they
always have and as 1 believe they al
ways will
