Four Hits.

Washington, April 1s-It is long road

Yankees could not be expected TO go on
winning every game they played In the
rsco for the American League pennant
After winning three straight from the
worlds champions in Philadelphia and TAX
ing the opening struggle after q ten-innng
battle with Washington yesterday the turn
IN the road came for the Yankees to-day,
when they suffered their first defeat OF The
season. The score was 2 to Q, and as the
turn of fortune would have il McAleer sent
Tom Hughes to the box fer the Senator'S
and the onctme pitcher OF the Yankees
started out to prove that his release was
a grave mistake, and succeeded. to, his own
satisfaction az least by holding his former
team mates to four hits and no runs.
big. Jim" Vaughn, who won the opening
game Of the season for the Yankees, was
on the firing line for New York, but did
not prove so effective as against the Ath-
letics The Senators made twelve hits Off
his delivery, and, aided by four of these,
managed to score two runs-one in the
fourth inning and one IN the sixth.

of a hitter as well az something of a
pitcher. slammed out a two-bagger in the
sixth inning. scoring Mcbride. who had

game. Daniels batted fer Vaughn in the
eighth inning. so that quinn finished out
the game-for tho Yankees.
Knight and Chase by brilliant stops pre-
vented any scoring In the first inning,
while Conway was left stranded In the
second after opening with n three. Dagger.
The third was uneventful teycnd the fact
that Vaughn lined out 4 single 10 no
avail. but the fourth brought some JOY TO
the crowd. as. after the Yankees had been
retired. the Senators scored their first run.
Cunningham opened with single and went
down to second on a sacrifice. He tried TO
score when knight jugeled Eenry's ground
or. but was nailed at the plate by perfect
throw. Henry went 10 second on the play,
however. and scored on McBrides single 10

Vaughn pitched himself out of bad hole

and the bases full. the side was retired
without run. The Senators added their

door by a maiden OF tender years, who
threw open the means of entrance with a
gracious air. He tipped er. A youth
hung up his coat and collar. He tipped
him. The barber applied the lather and
fed him with gossip worthy of his famous
prototype who held the noses of the great
in Savonarola's day. He got his tip. Then
came the boy who held his coat and the
boy who brushed him off, each to be mol
lifted with the one unctuous application
