MCGRAW FORGIVES ERROR.
Snodgrass Will Not Be Let Out, He
Announces.

New York. Nov. 6.--Pcrsstcnt re-
ports that the New York National
league baseball club would dispense
with the services of Fred Snodgrass.
as a result of his costly error in the
last world series game, are set at
rest i'm a statement given out here by
John j. McGraw. manager or the New
Works. He says
Il do not blame Fred Snodgrass in
the least for his failure To catch that
fly ball in the last game of the world
series. Snodgrass is a valuable and
conscientious player and he will he n
member of the Giants next season.
His failure to make the catch is some
thing that would happen but once In
thousand cases, and ! want to say
that he is deserving of sympathy for
this failure. II hurt him more keen
~ than II hurts anyone else.
in this connection ! may say that
feel even worse for aiathewson than
for Snodgrass. as Matty pitched three
excellent games without winning any
of them. There never was and never
will be another pitcher like Matty'

FIRST BASE HooDooED.
One of Worlds Series Performers
Doomed to Fall.

This talk that Johnny McGraw will
turn somewhere else than to the Mer-
kle quarter for a first baseman next
season again brings to mind the fact.
that some sort of "a jinX. hoodoo, or
whatever you will call II. has fol-
lower custodians of first sack in
worlds series for number of years,
although i'm Boston, Manager Jake
Stahl of the Red Sox promises To be
an exception to the rule.
Back In 1906 Jiggs Donahue at first
was one of the heroes of the Cub
white Sox series. Two years later not
q big club wanted him. and today the
unfortunate fellow is i'm a sanatorlum.
A year later. Claude Rossman starred
for Detroit but a little latter Jennings
passed him along. In 1909 Abstein
held down first for the Pirates, but
was let out the following spring.
Tom Jones. who was the Detroit
first baseman i'm the same series was
held by Jennings only year longer.
Two years ago Harry Davis and
Frank Chance were the rival first
sackers. Davis is out of baseball. fol-
lowing forced resignation as Cleve-
lands manager. and Frank Chances
recent troubles are still fresh i'm mind
