SECOND GAME.

The Nationals had only two real
chances to score in this game. Cashion
got around to the three-quarter stretch
in the fifth inning and Milan reached
second. A safe wallop from Henry would
have turned the trick, but the best the
collegian could do was to give Barrows
a long fly. The other opportunity came
in the seventh, when, with one out, Nor
gan singled and took second on a wild
pitch. Neither Ainsmith nor Cashion could
do the Good Samaritan act.
Chicago's winning tally came in the
third. Sullivan led of by going out,
Cashion to Henry. Lange drew a base
on balls. Mcconnell struck out Lord
singled to right, Lange going around TO
third. Mcintyre gave Kid Elberfeld a
grounder, which took a bad hop The
Kid juggled the ball just fraction of
a second too long, for Matty beat the
throw to first and Lange crossed the
plate.
Elberfeld's error demonstrates the un-
certainties and luck of baseball. The Kid
put up a grand exhibition during both
games. All told he had sixteen chances
to handle and the only error charged to
him came at time when II did the most
possible harm. 1t was just one Of those
things.

BOXING BODY MAY
REVOKE LICENSES
Madison Square Garden Ath"
letic Club Is Involved.

New York, Sept. 22.-At a meeting OF
the boxing commission this morning.
Secretary Harvey was instructed to
notify the officers of the Madison Square
Athletic Club to appear before the COM
mission on Monday afternoon, when the
question of the revocation of the clubs
license will be acted upon. Gov. Dix to-
day notified the commission that he con-
sidered the clubs lease of Madison
Square Garden illegal and instructed
Commissioner Dixon to vote with Com
missioner O'NeiH for the revocation Of the
license granted to the club to hold box
ing bouts.
The boxing commission revoked the
managed by Tom ORourke. This license
was revoked on the ground that the
club did not have a genuine years lease
on its quarters.
Another matter considered by the COM
mission was the license OF Referee
Charlie White White was asked to eN-
plain why he did not stop the Norris
Flynn fight. He explained that Morris.
somewhat soft and fat, bruised and cut
easily, and did bleed freely. but was at
no time either weak or in any danger
Of being seriously injured
Dr. Creamer testified that he attended
Morris after the fight. and that his hurts
were merely superficial The commits
sion exonerated White, but advised him
that In the future no bout must be al
lowed to continue under similar circum-
stances. All referees will be notified
that they must stop any one-sided bout.

FIRST GAME.

Strange to relate, both Mcconnell for
the White Sox, and Milan for the Ma
tionals, led off the first inning with
clean singles and both sides were re-
tired by fast double play.
1t was not until the fourth that an
other safe swat was registered, and
then came two more in the fifth. when
Chicago scored a tally. TannehiH
singled to left and completed the cir
cult on Collins three-bagger to the left
field fence.
From the first until the seventh not n
home player reached first base. Scott's
twisters seemed easy enough TO hit, but
they were popped up in the air and al
ways fell into the out-stretched paws of
some waiting fielder.
Scott opened the Sox's sixth with a
single and beat it home ahead OF Nc
Connell after the latter had knocked
the ball over the right field fence.
Zeider, who was hit in the ribs. reached
third on McIntyres double. and counted
on Bodies sacrifice fly to Milan.
Another run was chalked up for the
visitors in the ninth, when Tannehin
doubled. Collins bunt sent him to third,
and Blocks sacrifice fly did the rest.
Milan reached first base in the Ma
tionals' seventh, by drawing a walk, but
after Henry had popped to Mcintyre,
Elberfeld hit into a double play. With
one gone in the home folks eighth,
Gessler fooled the visitors by laying
down and beating out a bunt. But he
died on first base, as Mcbride flied to
Mcintyre and Morgan fouled to Collins.

BY WILLIAM PEET.

Bargain day matinees are all right
when the home team gets an even oreaK
or better, and the last time Gen. Duny
was here with his White Sox invaders
the Nationals put the skids under 'em
and waItzed away with both numbers.
Yesterday Cnicago was out for revenge,
and got it, splashing two beautiful coats
of whitewash over our heroes, . to and
to 0.
The dual bill marked the final appear
ance in the Nations Capital Of the
Windy City tribe this year, and that
Duffy was able to get away with two
wins he can thank a couple OF strong
arm pitchers. Lange was able to mold
the McAleerites runless for eight innings
in the final encounter. while Jim Scott,
in the curtain raiser, was so contounded
good that not a single Washingtonian
got within speaking distance of second
base during the nine-round scrap.
Dixie Walker was no puzzle to the
visitors in the first game. Hits came as
needed in the fifth, sixth. and ninth,
when the runs counted. In the nightcap,
big Jay Cashion was pitted against Iron
Man Lange. The former was wild, but
otherwise mighty effective. Chicago only
raked him for two hits. But Cashion 5
ass in the third was fatal. as 1t paved
the way for the only run of the game.
The features of the first scrap included
the hitting of Amby Mcconnell, four safe
wallops out of as many times up, and a
swell catch by Ping BOdie.
Milan RObs Lord.
Clyde Milans great work in the out
field was easily the big noise Of the final
contest. In the eighth inning he robbed
Harry Lord Of a single by sprnting after
a low liner. In order to make the catch
Milan was forced to dive headIong after
the ball. Needless 10 say he accomplished
the trick as only Milan can, and said
along on his right ear for ten feet, but
freezing tight to the precious horsehide.
Fearing lest the Nationals would start
a batting rally on Lange, Manager
Duffy sent Ed Walsh in to pitch the
ninth inning OF the second game. Walsh
of course. was the invinCible kid. and
while George Mcbride connected for a
scratch hit after Gessler had perished
neither Morgan nor Conroy, the latter
batting for Ainsmith, could bring the
captain around.

out. A single would hav6 scored two
runs, but Mcconnell and Collins retired
the collegian.
Milan made a beautiful running catch
OF Bodies long fly in the sixth. getting
the ball over his right shoulder. =
Lange outguessed Kid Elberfeld in the
sixth. and a quick throw to Collins had
Tabasco or the bag, where he was run
down.
Iron Man" Lange had no terrors for
young Ray Morgan. The kid singled
cleanly in the fifth and seventh.
Amby Mcconnell, who raked Dixie
Walker for a home run and three singles
in the first game, found Cashion a diff
ferent proposition, striking out twice,
drawing a base on balls. and dying, FL
berfeld to. Henry, the third time up.
Kid Elberfeld gets credit for but one
time at bat. Twice he walked and once
was hit by a pitched ball.
Red Walker struck out three times.
Collins hit one back at Cashion so hard
in the Sox's ninth the big boy could not
duck II. The ball hit Cashion's glove and
rebounded almost back to the plate.
