DETROIT. Mich, July s.-TryinE to
rush his recovery from the dangerous
spiking given him by Birdie Cree In
New York, Eddie Ainsmith has been
running around the ball field with his
regular shoes on for the last few days,
and today awoke to find the wound on
his right foot broken and paining con-

The spike tore through the tissues be-
hind the large toe for fully an inch,
and the tight shoe pressing upon the
bandage has irritated the wound until

Many Votes Now Being
Cast by Washington
Fans.
OLD CLUB MANAGER
FOR A LATER HOUR
Will Mean Greater Crowds, He
Says-Argument Against
Plan.

Today marks the closing OF the vot-
sng contest as to when the ball games
at National park should be started.
As the final hour of the contest
draws near the flow of votes increases
and the indications are that there will
be a heavy vote from today's paper.
Yesterdays assortment Of votes was
strong for a late start, but today the
votes being cast, show the earlier hour.
B:30 o'clock is much more preferred.
Among the votes received today was
one from NJ. B. Scanlon. who was
manager of the Washington cub when
this city was in the old American As
sociation. Mr.. Scanlon goes on record
as favoring 4:3O o'clock, declaring that
the late hour will mean the addition Of
at least 1000 a day to the attendance
at National park.
In favor of an early start the fol-
lowing letter comes from w. Balm
sen in the Colorado building:
"In speaking of the hour of start
ing the games at National Park, 1t is
my opinion that they should start at
3 o'clock. Although those in favor OF
A o'clock may outnumber the 3 o'clock
ers, those who wish the earlier start
are the real fans, who miss few games
and contribute much toward the cash
box; whereas the Government clerks,
although their votes may influence the
retention of the old hour, seldom go to
the games once a week. # as often,
after 4:3o, after which at least thirty
minutes is needed to reach the park.
is 1t fair for the small daily repre-
sentation of Government employees to
keep the steady attendants Of the games
from their dinners and, perhaps. in
time, the games?

is up to every fan to cut one out, III

McALEER'S ARMY
BEATEN BY LUCK
Tigers Take First Came Which Proves Dull and Unin-
teresting in Spite of Some Good Pays-Doly
Gray on the Mound.
By SENATOR"
Only Washington Newspaperman With Nationals.

DETROIT, July Stuck was against
them and the Nationals lost the
initial battle with the Tigers in the
heart of the jungle by a score Of
6 to 3. Despite the few good plays
which darted through the game
like frightened hares, the contest
was dull and uninteresting, and many
followers left the park at the seventh
inning. Had the breaks come little
in favor of the Nationals they might
have won. At least they might have
made 1t even closer than it was.
Dolly Gray, our astute young south
paw from the golden waters of the Pa
cific, essayed to twtrl and during the
opening inning gave a marvellous ex-
hibition of how not to do 1t. He passed
Drake and then Bush sacrificed. Milan
camped under Cobb's screeching fly,
but Drake rambled over to third. Search
ing around in his kit of tools Dolly
found a wild pitch and threw it at Hen
ry, Drake scooting over the disc.
Far be It from Dolly to stop at that.
Oh, no, he simply walked Crawford and
Delahanty, that's all. Moriarity came
up and poled the pill to left center.
Milan made a circus attempt to nail
the sphere. slinding on his tummy for
at least ten yards, he failed and Craw-
ford scored.
Delehanty Gets Caught.
Milan shot the ball to Mcbride. how
ever, and his toss to Henry got Della
hanty a foot from the plate.
In the third Gray remembered that
he had allowed those first runs, and so
he did something. O'Leary threw wild
Iy after fumbling Conroy's difficult
bounder, and Conny took another while
Moriarty was spiking Henry. Bull
Perrine lost his compass ard announced
that "Wid" had stolen
third. wild grinned What did he
care If the umpire was rotten. Then
came Dolly Gray, who Immediately pro-
ceeded to hang q beautiful two-sack
swat in the left pocket, scoring Con-
roy. The score was tied at 2 for a
while in The fourth. Kid Elberfeld. who
played with small cake of ice in his
cap right next to that hairless place,
spilled a single in left. Gessler sailed
to Drake, but LeliVelt cracked another
to the same pocket. Both lads moved
up when LATTE passed Mcbride.
when Conroy sailed a sacrifice hoist to
Drake, the man without any arms
Henry tried to murder the ball and
make the count higher. but all his hard
swipes were fouls, and his fair drive
was a roller to LATTE.
Tigers Get in Lead.
The Tigers grabbed the lead in their
half Delahanty hammered the horse

entire circuit right of the reel Mori-

Gray tossed out stanage. but LATTE

moment
In the sixth the Junglers gobbled one
more. Delahanty scratched one past
Conroy, to be forced by MOriarty. The
latter stole In a cloud Of dust and
spanked a double to left.
The final Tiger tally exemplifies the
luck of the national pastime. 1t hap

hoped over the low fence into the
bleachers. Delos went all the way
around.
Lost One in Eighth.
In the eighth the Nationals copped
their last one. Schaefer lined his way
to first ahead of his bound TO Bush. but
was forced by Elberfeld Doc Gessler's
solid drive to right put his kidlettes on
the third cushion, from where he easily
tailed when Lelivelt skied to the arm
less man in left.
Among the things Of note was Ty
Cobbs failure to get a hit. On his
second time up Schaefer smothered his
punch and beat him to the bag, though
the famed Georgia peach did a. fancy
dive at the sack. The comedian i'm
mediately danced a highland fling in
glee.
Worthy of mention also was the quiet
and even gentIemanIy demeanor Of the
Tigers who performed without the grass
pulling assistance of Hughey Jennings.
Hughey will rest in the shade of the
stand during this series and It will be
interesting to study the antics of his
protegees, certainly yesterday they
were gentle enough.
