b|G LEAGUE CAST0FFS WIN A A. PENNANT FOR MINNEAPOLIS
(BY G. A. BARTON.
(SpeciaI Corresnondence. \


MINNEAPOLIS, MIMI, Sept. IA.
The American association pen
nant has been won for Minneapolis
by a team of castoffs.
- From manager down the team is
composed of men who weren't con-
sidered good enough for the big
leagues-but they went through the
association like water through a
fire hose.
A regular cha, ha," re-echoed
around the American association
when Joe Cantillon's 1910 lineup
appeared. Reverberations were
heard in big league cities. Poor
Joe," laughers said The Millers
were hailed as ''old spavs," "old
timers" 1.-The down-and-out club
and by other indicative titles.
At first the experts" appeared
to be right for Minneapolis looked
bad. The team got away like a
onelunged gas Mountaineering. The
creak of joints sounded like an Or
chestra of castanets playing rag
time.
But when they did come the Mill
ers came fast and landed in first
place to stick like a poor relation.
Minneapolis has won the pen
nant with sterling batting, base
running and fielding. The pitching
hasn't been first class. Cantillon
has a stable of good pitchers, but
lame arms, and sickness have
played havoc all year.
Tom Hughes, former Washington
pitcher, is the association star, and
has accomplished wonders for the
team. Nick Altrock, ex-White Sox
Roy Patterson and Louis Fiene
have done well considering their
disability Bill Lolivelt, former tt
ger is the fifth Miller pitcher.
But the offense and fielding have
turned the trick. Men like Dave
Altizer, eX-Nap. ex-senator and eX-
White Sox; Otis Clymer, eX-Pirate
and ex-senator; "Gabby" Cravath,
ex-Red Sox, ex-senator and ex-
White Sox; Jimmy Williams. ex-
Brown; Hobe Ferris, ex-Red Sox
and eX-Brown, and Claude Ross

cinched the bunting.

cause he wasn't "up to class" At

THIS SERIES
IS DECISIVE

The series now on between Spo-
kane and Vancouver is the most de-
cisive played so far this season.
and upon it's outcome will depend
the cIinching of the league pen
nant, at least so far as Vancouver
is concerned.
In order to have a chance for the
prize flag Bob Browns boys must
take practically every game OF the
series, for IL Spokane takes only
three out of the seven games, and
then wins two of the games from
Seattle - the tail-ender - she will
have that rag cinched SO tight that
nothing can pry her grip off it.
On the other hand, II the Beavers
can down the Indians for all OF
the games then COINS bunch will
have to travel some, for the red
skin band will have to make an en-
tire sweep of the Seattle series in
order to finish at the top Of the
league, and from the way in which
Dugdale's gang is cleaning up Ia
coma it is extremely more than
doubtful If the crippled Indians can
get away with any such proposition.

BIG RAILROAD WILL
HIRE NO MORE WOMEN
Baltimore and Ohio to Employ Men EX-
clusively in All Departments.

Pittsburg, April 1.-THE Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad has decided to hire
no more women. It has been decided
that the duties in a railroad Office can
be handled better by men and boys.
The women who are already on the
payrolls of the company will not be
discharged, but once they leave the
company's employ their places will be
taken by men.
This new condition has been made
public through the rejection of several
women who applied here for positions.
They were told that an order had gone
into effect all over the system prohibit
ing the future employment of a woman
in any capacity whatever. 1t has been
estimated that 80 per cent. more work
can be got from the average young
man stenographer than from a girl in
the same position and that work more
carefully handled The same applies
to other departments.
