Games Today
Birmingham in Nashville. New Orleans in Atlanta. Mobile in Chattanooga.

Nashville August 15.-(SpeciaD-The Volunteers came back. at the Barons viciously this afternoon, drivins--Foxen from the heaving stand in the third chapter and making a final round up of six runs against a couple for Mama ger Molesworth's worthies, all of the visitors scores being accumulated in the opening round.
 The game started off like a run away for Birmingham, two runs being nut over following consecutive hlts by the first four batsmen to face their old comrade, Earl Fleharty, with a good chance that this number would nave been doubled had not Marcan tried 10 take liberties with Doc Wiseman's arm right on the kickoff. As result his hit to rightfield first man up went for hut one bag while he went out at second, and chances for what would have proved big handicap start lost. This break was followed by hits by Molesworth, Phelan and McBride, the first two counting, and in covering the last quarter tho Baron fast third sacker for the first time on local grounds this season, stole home, mak- ing a clean swipe of the plate while Fleharty was doing winding act.
 The Barons' lead was not for long, however, as the locals commenced to operate upon FoXen in the second chapter, making enough to counteract the margin against them when Red smith walked, Perry was hit with the ball. Schwartz sacrificed, Seabaugh sent a sacrifice fly to center and Fleharty hit a measley drive that fell safe over second. Three more were added in the next round The no-hit celebrity started this round by again walking man, Lindsay being favored this time. Welchonce sacrificed and after Red Smith had fouled out, singles by Perry, schwartz and an infield scratch by wiseman, with Doc" Seabaugh's double to the dump resulted in three runs. Speer. then. went in and tle- harty popped up fly and ended the trouble. Speer pitched nice ball the rest of the way, but one score being made off him. This came in the sew enth on hits by Perry and Schwartz and Doc Wiseman's sacrifice fly.
 The Barons completely reversed their usual performance here, giving a splendid exhibition of how to waste hits. They pounded Fleharty all the way, but when it came to producing the pinch bingle, there was nothing doing time after time.
 Every inning one or more men were left stranded on the paths, no less than three in the seventh, when Fleharty whiffed Johnston with the bags con tested. Eleven Barons in all died some- where along tho trail.
 Fhlding features of the game were beautiful running catches up the dump by Jimmie Johnston and Doc Wiseman both cutting down hard drives that would have gone for extra bases.

in three, Atlanta and Chattanooga each lost three in four. It is unfortunate that Nashville won it's series, for otherwise the Barons would have made clean sweep.
 Had Trough shown form, it is difficult to tell just how many games the Barons would have won. His weakness made II necessary on one occasion to use Maxwell whereas had Trough held his own, Max vel would have defeated Bernhard in the second game of the double header. which game was lost in the eighth inning through weakness of Speer. But had Trough maintained his accustomed gait. the Barons. according to the figures, would have lost few, very few, of those F battles The figures follow:

' Phelan has stolen that many already, end is still going very fast. He will lead the league by good margin, the predlc- ton is.
 In this connection it is interesting to rote that the Barons have in recent years had their own way in base stealing. Tn rotation, Henline, Gygli and McGilvray lead the league. and Phelan will turn the trick this season.

GIRLS HELD IN $1,000
FOR SHOOTING STOKES
Their Attorney Intim ates That Witness
Was Tampered With.

New York, July 11.-Ethe1 Conrad
land Lillian Graham, who on June 6
shot W. E. D. Stokes, the millionaire
hotel man. in their apartment, were
held in $4,000 bail today for the grand
jury on a charge of felonious assault.
Magistrate. Freschi, in deciding to
hold the two girls for the grand jury,
stated at the outset that he would fg
more the element of scandal in the case.
He called attention TO the fact that a
prima facie case had been made out
and that no defense had been offered
and therefore there was nothing left
for him to do but TO hold the young
women.
Robert W Moore. of counsel for the
girls. had indicated that he expected
the case to go to the grand jury, and
for this reason refused to put either
of his clients on the stand. During
the hearings of the case he has con-
tented himself with trying to show
that Stokes went to the apartments of
the girls to get possession of certain
letters and that the girls shot in self
defense
Following this line he drew from A.
H. Gleason. Stokes personal counsel,
this morning the admission that Glea =
son had had the letters in his posses
sion and had made copies of them be-
fore turning them over to the district
attorney. Gleason, however. denied
that he had withheld any ofs the let
terS.
Wilford Hart the negro elevator
boy. called by the defense, proved d
disappointment He had been expected
to testify that Stokes had asked to he
taken to the girls apartment unan
nounced. On the contrary. he said
that earlier in the evening Miss Gra-
ham had told him she expected a call
er. Attorney Moore broadly intima ted
that the witness had been tampered
with.
The same bondsman a builder, who
had previously secured the release of
the two young women, signed their
$4,000 bonds. again this afternoon and
they were released
