tion to win the pennant, he cannot leave. Thus We arel not able to see the players in action, for the minor leagues close before the Southern.
 Money will not aid us as much in the future as it has in the past The newly instituted regulation re- quiring the players to be waived on at 5000 by the Class A leagues will prevent this practice. So it will be up to the clubs to develope their own players. The team bringing in the likeliest youngsters will win out.
 Although we do not employ a scout now, we are active in watch ing young players in the various minor leagues. We expect to draft greater number this season, for we feel that they may be needed next year. We know We will lose men-K nisely, Covington and Ira gesser, and think that one will be lost through the drafts to the ma jors. The outlook for next season is not very bright, but Birming- ham will be right up in the race"

Nashville, July 19-(Special. )-Bir . nngham got just as many hits as Nashville, but had two bad innings for Roth. coupled with also two costly errors. gave Nashville the game today by score of 6 to 1. The Barons were able 10 hit Heinie Berger. but the hits were scattered in nearly all the innings.
 Birmingham started out like wildfire and it looked as if the game was going to be a much one sided. affair when Mcdonald landed safe on first, Knisely hit to right field. and scored Mcdonald After that, however the jinX got after the Barons in good form and although several rallies were started, they were each time nipped in the bud, as the Vol unteers played an errorless game
 In the eighth particularly, when Car roll, Knsely and Covngton got on base it appeared as if there was going to be more scoring for Birmingham, but Carrol got caught al second and Me Brides out ended the chance. In the ninth inning Dilger's two-bagger again threatened to give Berger trouble, but failure on the part of the other Barons to back up the drive ended the con- test. It would have been hardly possi lie to have overcome the six run lead, however. which was secured by the Vol unteers in the fifth. sixth and seventh Innings.
 Errors Aid Nashville
 Tfat the runs were scored cannot be blamed entirely on Roth, although he was flighty at times, and did allow hits to be punched to some extent. In the sixth. Ellam let a drive by Williams get through him, and this allowed two runs to be scored. Wild throws scored the other run of this inning. Had El- lam held the ball and thrown Williams out, the sixth inning would doubtless ended with the score standing but to in favor of Nashville, with chance for the Barons to pull up In this particulaE inning also, it seemed as if the Barpns went slightly to pieces as on Hemnnng ways bunt, he stole second and Gibson Differed the third bag.
 In some respects it was a rather freak ish affray, too, as there were three bril- liant one-hand catches made Sloan grab bng one in right field. Paulette one near first base and Knisely dragging down Tone from Paulette's bat.

Both games were seven innings by agree ment. Mullen was elected by Umpire Fi field for disputing a decision in the sec ond game. Scores:

New York, July 19.-The beginning of the week finds the situation in the ma jor league baseball races less tense and with fewer changes of note than seemed the case a week ago. If New York in the National and Philadelphia in the American league, are not to repeat their pennant winning performances, the other clubs will have to show more consist ent winning power than displayed in the last seven days.
 In the Ban Johnson circuit the Attn letics gained a full game on Detroit leaving the Tigers three and half games behind the leaders. Washington dropped back to a point five games re- moved from the front and Boston is five and half games from the top, half game worse off than last Sunday.
 It remained, however, for Chicago to do the worst The White Sox won only two of seven games, and are more than six games behind the pacemakers. St. Louis fell off slightly, the clubs standing TOW being just a trifle over the .0oo mark.
 Athletics Regain Form
 The Athletics at last seem to be playing their old, steady, smashing game. Forced into idleness the greater part of the week because of wet weather they later LOOK all three games played with the White Sox and closed their weeks work with a record of three games won and none lost. The drop of the White Sox came with the greater shock to their sup porters because of the added winning power expected to prove theirs through the 'come back of Ed Walsh.
 Accident has hit Washington hard, al- though it appears Milan's disablement will not be for so long a period as was feared Then, too, the Nationals are no longer able to count a game virtually won the moment Walter Johson steps iIto the box.
 Boston showed consistent work and passed both Chicago and St. Louis, nov ing up to fourth place. St. Louis, like Chicago, found the going hard in New York, where the Chancemen have taken a big brace The Clevelands took out of three from Washington. The Yan- ,xees. strengthened by the addition of Outfielder Cree and First Baseman Null len. have won eight of their last eleven games
 National Has Long Game
 The National league feature was the 21-inning game between New York and Pittsburg, which will be banded as one of the historic contests of the game.
 The Cubs fared slightly better than the Giants on herweelSs work, losing one game less. By beating the Brooklyns to- day they gained a .ew percentage points and moved that %luch nearer the Giants.
 Going down the National league line, little developed to cause excitement. St. Louis kept pace with New York in games won and lost, out is not close enough to threaten. The Cincinnatis, crippled hy de- sertions, are having a struggle to keep within hailing distance of the .500 point,
