THE PETROLEUM FIELDS.

The last week has witnessed very little
change in conditions in the various Gil
AeIds. Development work continues active
q, most sections as a result of the milder
weather that has prevailed. and indica-

work during the coming season. Efforts OF
o,erators are still in the direction OF locat-
ing new producing territory, but so far they
have met with only partial success. MOST
Of the wells brought in have been IN the
already defined territory. although tho pro-
ducing area OF some of the existing pools
has been extended The Blue Creek devel-
oprnent in West Virginia continues TO iur-
nish the principal attraction, as number
Of wells now drilling will soon come IN.
Considerable activity is in evidence in this
district and during the week another gusn-

ers In addition TO the gusher, which had
an initial production of 800 barrels num-

Faith in Joe Birmingham

career crippled Davis's success to
such an extent that he was never able
to regain the ground lost
Another error into which he fell
was the delivery of his views on his
own players. This was not received
favorably either by the players or
the fans.
Davis was the victim of bad tuck,
and this should not be counted
against him. Players failed who
should have prospered. Hohnhorst.
Buddy Ryan, George Kahler, Gene
Knapp, Mitchell and Steen all did
poor work or failed completely. Bland
ing was the only member of the
pitching staff who delivered in proper
shape. Gregg, the greatest pitcher of
1911, was out of commission for a
while, and much of the time has been
ineffective. Other players have moi
come up to the mark.
Birmingham has entered upon ~
task which will demand all his re-
sourcefulness, all his judgment and
all his diplomacy. The team has
peer almost demoralized by defeats.
The fans have been soured by re-
peated failures. A combination of
Connie Mack, Johnny McGraw, Fred
Clarke and Frank Chance couldn't
put the team on its feet immediate

CLEVELAND, Sept. 13.-Cleveland
iens are confident that Joe Biz
.ningham, the new manager OF the
Maps, will put his team out of the
oeep rut into which it has fallen I'M
der the leadership of Harry Davis.
Davis resigned on Labor Day, and
Birmingham's appointment followed
Immediately.
Birmingham, who by the way Is
the Youngest manager in h majors
being only % years old, knows base
hall IL ever anyone did. He is Of the
same school that gave Fielder Jones'
Frank Chance and other stars to the
national game. There is scarcely a
~situation that results from the mp
moments line of attack that Joc's fer
tile brain will not be able to meet
on the instant. Furthermore, he en-
lows the respect and confidence Of al
of the men under him and that means
much.
Although Davis looked like n prize
when he took over the management
of the team last spring, he certainly
has not been a success. Perhaps his
worst error was the appointment of
Ole Olson to the captaincy or the
team when Birmingham was regard
ed as the logical candidate both by
the players and the fans. That error

From a staff Correspondents.

BALTIMORE, Md, Sept. 1S.-New-
on their oars today in preparation for
the final battle of the series with the
Birds here today. The Bengal ma
chine slipped up yesterday and caVed
in, the Tigers suffering a temporary
setback. but a day of relaxation and
recreation at sports other than base
ball should be a good tonic for the
team.
Before leaving for Newark yester-
day Joe McGinnity arranged with
Jack Dunn to play a double header
at Newark Sunday. The Tigers will
get a chance on that day to revenge
their defeats of yesterday, and New
ark fans may see the same Oriole
fingers, Roth and Shawkey, in ac-
ton. Roth looks like a Conner if he
discards his spitball. which he does
not need.
The splitter" has ruined many good
pitchers. Even though Newark
dropped both games the Tigers hit
ting was up to the standard.
Inability to stop the Birds from hit
ting was the aust of a setback. One
of the reasons why there is much hit
ting on the Oriole grounds is the fact
that the grand stand is right on top
of the home plate. Often a batter
will put up a foul that a catcher will
nail on any other grounds, but the
ball bounds off the screen and the
catcher is helpless. Eddie thinner
man jumped to his home in York
Pa, to spend the off day. Wyatt
Lee is in Washington, and Dent in
Oakley. Md.
With McGinnity, Solomon, Smith,
Gaskell away the roster is well nigh
depleted.
The Tigers broke the ice first in
the second game, sending a tally over
in the second round on Gagnier's
double and a single by Eddie Zim-
norman. The Birds came back in
their half of the same session and
went one run to the good on two
singles, a stolen base and a double.
The Bengals got their second point
in the sixth on a single and a stolen
base by Collins and Swacina's 'wo-
base hit. The Orioles put what proved

Little Jackie Clarke will positively
ride at the Velodrome Sunday. Floyd
MacFarland cannot stop him, accord
ing to Johnny Chapman. for Clarke
was under contract to ride at
Salt Lake City from May 30 to the
close of the season there. He will be
under contract with Mcfarland from
October Is to April 1. This leaves
Clarke free to compete where he likes
from the present time until October
Is, and he will finish out the season
at the Velodrome. Clarke has signed
another contract, which calls for his
appearance at the Velodrome from
April |, 1918, to October 1, 1913.
Little Jackie is the busiest speed
merchant in the game. The popular
little fellow is a big drawing card
everywhere, and all of the promoters
are after him. He enjoys as much
popularity in Europe as he does here.
Clarke is billed to ride in a number
