CARDS LOOM UP AS
REAL CONTENDERS
ST. Louis Team Is Now Only
Three Games Behind
Giants.

Without the use of a tourniquet 1t
would be impossible to draw the lines
much tighter in the National League
race. By losing again yesterday the
Giants dropped a half game to their
nearest rivals-the Boston Braves
and have lead of only one game
now over Stallings's crew. st. Louis
at the same time downed Brooklyn,
and the Cards are only three games
behind the McGrawites Next in line
is Chicago, in fourth place, three and
one-half games behind the Gotham
club. Any one of these clubs has a
chance for the flag.
Boston was unable to play at Pitts
burgh yesterday because of rain, and
the Braves therefore must play two
games today. The rain yesterday
was a blow to the Boston team, for 1t
means that Stallings will have to
vary his pitching routine a little
next week or else James WIN have to
be worked with only two days of rest.
Should the Braves win two games
today and the Giants meet defeat
Boston will be perched on the top
rung of the ladder tonight. Boston is
lucky in one respect, for the Hub
club rests tomorrow at Pittsburgh.
while the Giants must keep up their
battle at Cincinnati. Monday the
scenes will be shifted again. the
Giants moving to st. Louis and Bos-
ton advancing on Chicago.
With the ST. Louis team in the run
ming many West Hudson fans are
pulling for dots" Miller. captain of
the Cards, to win the flag. Dots"
Is playing wonderful baseball and
his work has been a prominent factor
all season in the teams success.

Cards and will be happy when the

Exciting Day for Fans of

pitchers pitched no-hit ball yes

a feat seldom recorded in baseball
when he went eleven hitless in
nings against Battle Creek. Rus

severely beaten by a crowd at Bay

MAJOR LEAGUE JOTS

Ray Caldwell's ten-day suspension
expires Monday, and his friends say
that he is going to take his medicine
and accept all of the punishments
and fines inflicted by Chance be-
cause of the pitchers bad behavior.
This one CALLING rebuke should teach
Caldwell lesson he will never for
get. His name has been dragged into
the mire all over the country, and If
he has any pride at all he will walk
the straight and narrow path from
now on. The fact that he is going TO
take his medicine" shows there is
some real good in him best les his
ability as baseball pitcher.
Ed Walsh may try to win another
game from the Yanks today. Chi
cago opens a series at Gotham in tile
American League.
Brooklyn is slumping again. The
Dodgers were drubbed Al in st.
Louis and have started very poorly
on the road.
Gus Getz got in one bingle in four
tries.
Burns, ex-Montreal catcher. now
with the pills, pulverized the pill
yesterday, getting two triples against
Vaughn. of the Cubs.
c. H. Ebbets, president of the
Brooklyn club. is blamed for being
the Dodger jinx. Every time he goes

Steve Yerkes. a star in the worlds
series two years ago for the Boston

One Little Scheme.

There is one combination in the
race with a wonderful scheme. This
combinat ton has modestly planned to
get all the money in the race. If one
or more riders lap the field they will
take the long end of the finish money,
but this does not insure them the
special lap, mile and intermediate
five-mile prizes unless they win them
in sprints against the riders they
have Tapped, and they would, by
sprinting for these special prizes,
take chances of losing their lap. So
a very wise young man who is the
brains of the combination proposes
to get half a lap or more on the field
and then stay there to the finish. as
did Spears and Cory, thus getting
all the intermediate prizes and the
finish prizes as well. Now that this
scheme has been tipped off 1t may
"crab their act" but there are
number of professionals who will do
anything no matter how open it may
be.

Collins Fools Doctors.

Doctors are sometimes wrong in
their Judgment of athletes. A Boston
doctor told Elmer Collins that it would
be fatal if he ever rode another bike
race, but "Collie" rode Thursday night
at Philadelphia and put up a very
good race, and he is still alive. With
more training the former motor paced
champion will be as good as he ever
was. 1t takes "gamester" to go into
a paced race with the death sentence
pronounced by perfectly good medi-
cine man, but Collins always was a
''gamester."

GouIIet Expects Hard Battle.

ALI Goullet expects a hard battle in
his match with Moretti tomorrow and
he is none too sanguine of victory.
Goullie figures the Italian a bit
faster right now than he is, and will
rely upon his great generalship to
win. Goullet rode q masterful race
in the Bill Bailey Stakes. when he
beat Kramer and Rutt in the final,
and if he can duplicate that bit of
strategy his chances of beating Mo-
retti are very bright. When "Goul-
lie" beat Kramer and Rutt he beat
two riders who were both faster than
he that night, and it takes some gen.
eral to encompass the defeat of two
men who are faster. Goullet will not
let the italian use his speed. At
least, that is what he will try to do.
The Australian will try to ride from
the front, get the italian on his hip
and keep him there to the tape.
Goullet learned this trick from kra-
mer, and he can do 1t just about as
well as the "old master" himself.
