Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. October 1.--When a
team plays with the precision of a reaper
and mower moving through a field and
cutting the stalks of wheat at just the
right altitude, You can figure that it
is playing good base ball. and that is
what Washington was doing yesterday.
There hasn't been anything better in the
base ball line all the season on the hill.
New York was simply outplayed. That's
all there is to it. Perhaps it was fash in
the pam but If it was. it was one of the
most ornamental flashes that Washington
ever exhibited in this corporation.
Mcbride was very proud young man
when he rolled out for breakfast this
morning. AS acting manager II was his
pleasant contention that Washington had
played one of the prize games of the year
MOI an error in it that amounted to a
cents worth" said he If Charley Street
hadn't got that throw little too low on
Warhop. in the third inning, we would
have had clean game and the mistake
didn't count anything, so what's the use
of thinking about it,"
Cunningham was the king of the carni-
val SO 1Sf as Washing was COHCcIH-
ed. Never seen before in New York, half
of the small crowd in the stands began to
buzz around and ask questions about him
when he welted the ball right and left s
he took his turn at bat. He struck out
the first time. and he made three hits in
the next four times at bat He nearly
made it four hits straight. He did well
enough for four hits straight, but Gar
dener ran out under Cree's nose and
pulled down a low fly.
The Washington players can't be in
duced to say much about that contract
business. Indeed, they prefer not to dis
cuss it, Most of those who have had any
talk with the players are inclined to be-
lieve that either they were strnging some

johnson and Milan were to have gone

we had all been doing him an injustice.
He begged of me to have his arm
treated so that he could work against
the Giants, as he was confident he could
beat McGraWs men every game he
pitched. He also said that he didn't

wanted to prove to his teammates that
he was not yellow. The arm was cared

to treatment, and when the series opened
