Fourth Victory.

Improvement in the racing conditions
brought out a largec rowd to Laurel yes
terday afternoon. The track was in de-
cidedly better shape and the going was
faster as the time made in the different
events shows. The public was unsucceSS-
full in its efforts to land on the right ones
and the days results showed six beaten
favorites.
The feature race, the Blue Point selling

good contest, the winner turning up In

lead. She tired badly in the stretch run
and repeatedly stumbled in the last SIX

ed with splendid courage, and, after a
mild drive, shook off Moisant and was
going away at the end.
The best finish of the afternoon came
with the running of the first race. when
called for two-year-olds. Auto Maid

retirement. His defeat at the hands of
Young Saylor i'm Boston last night shows
that the former champion is well adj
vanced on the down grade and can no
longer be considered anything but a
punching lag for most of the classy light
weights. Nelson lasted longer than any
one expected. He was a fighter who al

great drain on his vitality. But. like

TO a close.
Give John McGraw credit for being a
thinker. When he started out on that
last western trip he rea lied that he must
keep his team intact so far as possible

and the Giants have the reputation of
always making it Very uncomfortable for
the umpires. the team established the
record of not even having a man put off
the coaching lines during that trip-a rec
ord absolutely unheard of considering the
importance of these games. 1t only goes
to show that nothing is gained by kick
ing and umpire batting. and that the sucA

playing the game without giving any at
tention to the umpires. Connie Macks
team is another well behaved combina-
ton, and II is rarity for one of his
players to have a run-in with an umpire.
That the National League is weak in
catchers IS one explanation that has been
offered of the wonderful base stealing
performances of the men of McCIraw this
season. And If one shuts out every
other consideration from his mind than
the mere figures il would appear that
there are but four catchers of note In the
entire league.
Looking through the records, one finds
the following statistics of the number OF

since joining the Nationals in 1908.
For the last month or so Groom has
shown exceptional form. He has beaten
the best teams in the league. and has
accomplished it with apparent ease. 1t
may be that the turning point in his ca
reer has come. Every since he Joined the

ner has been matter of surprise to
every one, for so far as natural ability
is concerned Groom has as much as

Of a good pitcher
There are innumerable instances in base
ball where pitcher has turned from a
loser to winner overnight, and this may
be the case with Groom, in which event
he will be of great help to the team next
season.
But the local club has been fooled more
make late in the season, when there is
nothing at stake, only TO fall back into
the same old rut the following spring.
1t is to be hoped that such will not be
the case with Groom.
The Athletics are not apt to win many
games of the remaining few they have to
play. because those players in the line
up who are capable are not hustling.
while the team is weakened by reason of
playing several youngsters who are
hardly up to the major league standard.
Mack's team is just going through the
motions of playing out the schedule
and is not making any special eff
fort to win. The finishing touches,
however. will be put on when II
tackles the all-Stars next week. These
games are expected to put the cham
pions on edge. Manager McAleer will
arrange to have Larry Gardner and
Joe Woods of the Boston team join his
stars. SO that the team will be we'll for
titled without the Chicago players join

pected to assist Street behind the bat.
There has not been the slightest i'm

two seasons that McAleer presided over
the team. but there is doubt that
much more would have been accomplish

not had the magnate bee buzzing. With
his mind on other things more vital to
him than the success of the Nationals,
there is no doubt that this had a detri-

1t required only an hour and FIVE
minutes to play the final game of the
season. The players hustled through the
nine innings and the Athletics did not

not The Nationals gained the lead in
the last half of the fourth inning after

half of this inning on Collins home run

The step taken by President Navin is
one indication Of the increasing popular

thusasts sometimes sigh for the good
old days Of eight or ten years ago, when

The decline of other sports has not
been due to legislation-base ball has
superseded them. In the early days at
Bennett Park an 5000 crowd was worth
considerable comment. An 5000 crowd
is very ordinary now.
Since the Tigers became pennant con-
tenders the attendance at the ball games
has almost doubled. Formerly going to

Now Detroiters-in fact, fans from all
over Michigan-go to see the Tigers play.
Other sports have become of secondary
consideration.
Since Frank Navin took charge of the
affairs of the club the capacity Of the
stands has been increased on different
occasions. They were first converted into
sloping stands. with boxes at the front
Then the right field bleachers were erect

ity of 1900 or 1900. The new stands
will have seating capacity of $4,000.

If there ever was a ball team which
needed new faces, not only in the hope
of strengthening the team, but I'm order
to stimulate interest, it is the Nationals.
Barring five or six players, an effort
should be made to secure new material
here. In every instapce the young play
er should be given the preference. even
though he still be crude. The only chance
there is to better conditions here is to
build up an almost entirely new team
There are too many players on the pay
roll of the Washington club now who
have grown accustomed to losing. There
is a demand for new blood and new
spirit, and whoever McAleer's successor
may be he should bear this in mind. OF

Morgan has made the best impression.
Clarence Walker and Tom Long are
hardly of major league caliber. Both may
improve. but it is going to take long
time before they will be capable of add
ing strength to major league team.
Neither can be figured on to start the
next season with, if better things are
expected. Morgan appears to have
chance to make good from the outset.

Becker develops a better curve ball they,
to add strength to the team. There will
be a batch of youngsters reporting in the
spring, Of which Moeller. Foster and
Flynn are believed to be the best, but no
chance to add to this list Of players
should be allowed to slip away.
O'Brien, the Boston pitcher recently
secured from Denver, promises to be one
of the leading twirlers in the league next
season. To date he has scored shut-outs

has shown himself to be most effective
against all the teams he has faced.
1t does seem that Jimmy McAleer will
drop into pretty soft spot in Boston.
He has the nucleus there of great ball
team, and if he can get Stahl back to
manage and play first he is sure to have
a contender. In addition to O. Brien, the
Hub team seems to have picked up good
men in Second Baseman Lewis and Out
fielder Henderson, both of whom have
shown up well in the few games they
have been allowed to play. With that
marvellous Outfleld and several good pitch
ers to build on, it will not take much to
make the Red SoX a team which will give
the pennant winners a lot Of trouble III
they don't land the flag themselves
Just why the impression should have
been created that the Athletics will
pound Mathewson all over the lot when
he works against them in the world s
series is hard to understand in the face
of the fact that the veteran appears to be
in better form now than he has been at
any time this season. 1t cannot be fig
ured that a pitcher who bowls over all
the National League teams should be
an easy prey for the Athletics. for it is
not likely that their advantage in batting
is so great that they can make one of
the greatest pitchers the game has ever
known look like a Sandlotter.
Mathewson can be depended upon to
prove a hard proposition for the Mack
men. They may beat him. but if they do

BROOKLYN n. Y, October 5.-New
York clinched the pennant by defeating
Brooklyn yesterday, to o. Should Chi
caeo win all it's remaining games and the
Giants lose theirs, the New Workers can
not be overhauled. The game was a
pitchers duel between Mathewson and
Rucker, the latter having been recalled
from his wedding trip to pitch. He was
to have been married October II. but the
ceremony was advanced to Sunday last.
Rucker pitched as we'll as Mathewson,
but two errors. following a hit by Doyle
in the fourth inning were responsible for
one tally. Rucker retired in the eighth
to let Daley bat for him. and the New
Workers. scored their second run off knet-
ger in the ninth on Devore's single, a
steal, a wild pitch and an infield tap by
Snodgrass.
The game was further signaliZed by a
triple play in the ninth. when with Doyle
on second and Snodgrass on first, Murray
popped q fly to Star. The hit and run
play was under way and the runners
were going full tilt. Stark tossed the ball
to Daubert, doubling UP Snodgrass, and
