By WILLIAM PEET.

Old Rainmaker butted In at National
Park yesterday and broke up the final
game OF the st. Louis series after three
innings and part OF the fourth had been
played, neither side scoring.
It was bad day for baseball and
white shoes, as many of our fans and
fanettes will attest
Dark clouds hung low over the ball
yard fifteen minutes before the combat
started, and when Walter johnson shot
over the first ball it was drizzling to beat
the band.
Umpire Egan, behind the bat, took a
slant at a big black cloud which APP
peared toSbe full of moisture when two
Nationals were out in the third inning.
He lost no time In calling OF hostilities
and the noble athletes hiked to cover.
Play was resumed later and Danny
MoeIler flied to Wallace for the final out.
The Browns. fifteen minutes later, went
into the fourth inning with the rain de-
scending almost in torrents Howard
and Shotten both died and as Pratt was
up to the bat with one ball and one
strike called, Jack Egan decided that IT
was about time to quit. and sent the
players TO their respective benches. After
waiting the required length of time and
discovering that the playing field was
altogether too sloppy for the national
pastime. the game was called and every
body went home.
As the Browns appeared in the final
game OF the 1914 series so far as Wash
ington Is concerned, there Is no chance
TO add yesterdays game to the double
header list, and II will never be played
over.
Rain interferred with all OF the other
Eastern games scheduled for the Ameri-
can League. consequently no ground is
lost as the White Sox-Boston. Yankee
Cleveland and Detroit-Philadelphia
games also went into the discard pack.
According to the ST. Louis players.
Walter johnson had more STUFF on his
fast ball yesterday than at any time he
has faced them this season.
The big Smoke himself, retired the
side DON three ground balls during the
first inning. He famed two in the sec
ond chapter and the same number in
the third.
Lefty Leverenz opposed Johnson, and
he too pitched great ball.
Walter johnson had a hand in the
putting out OF eight of the first men
to face him. striking out four. throw
ing out three at first base and grabbing
OF Towards liner with one hand.
Clarence Walker. the former National,

made his first start against his former
team mates during the present series,
being in left field, and weakly striking
out on his only appearance at bat. Walk
er has been suffering from a strained
muscle, but appears to again be in con-
dition.
The gate between the left field pavilion
and the bleachers was opened during the
crowd was allowed to move out of the
rain.

to retire the side in the second. Clarence

Jams letting three go by without even
offering at one and Lavan after having
two strikes and no balls on him. driving
one to Gandil which the big first sacker
handled cleanly and then stepped on the
bag.
Neither team had made a safe hit when
hostilities were called off. although Pratt
made a good play on shanks grounder
between first and second in the second
stanza- throwing the fleet outfieIder out
at first.
Shotten also made a neat catch Of Nc
Brides liner in the same frame when the
dandy captain shot one towards center
which looked as II It might fall safe
The heavy wind almost gave Howard a
life in the fourth when his sky-scraper
was carried away from Gandil. but Ray

gathered II in.

George Mcbride Signs
His Contract for 1915
Nationals Leader Given Substantial IncreaSe-Jen-
nings Tigers Here Today for Series-Ty
Cobb Will Be in the Lineup.

Today's game will be called promptly
at 8 o'clock and II Announcer Phillips
feels in the mood the scores of the
Giants-Cincinnati, Boston Braves-Pirates
games will probably be megaphoned to
local fans.
In his comment in the New York
Evening Journal Sam Crane, who is
travelling with the Giants on their
present Western trip, declares that the
New York players find food for dis
cussion among themselves these days
in how much money they could make
out of games with the Highlanders In
case they do not get into the worlds
series.
This shows a bad mental condition
among the New York players. The
amount OF money which they could
make out of a post-season series with
the Highlanders would be trifiing COM
pared with what they could get for
playing the Athletics in the blue-rtb-
bon event.
1t will be recalled that after the
Athletics had won the worlds cham
pionships in 1910 and 1911 they fell
down in 1912 and played fall series
with the Phillies. Each Athletic player
received about ST for his share Of the
games with the Daisies. as against
about $500 the previous fall for play
ing the Giants.
Conditions would doubtless be the
same II the two New York teams met.
A city series would not be very at
tractive at the Polo Grounds after
three worlds series.
That the Giants are considering such
a proposition indicates how badly they
have been scared by the rush OF the
Boston Braves The latter crawled up
another half game Thursday by beat
ing Pittsburgh while the Giants were
idle. This gives the Braves gain OF
FIVE games on the New Workers in the
last seven playing days. 1t was the
eleventh straight victory turned IN for
Boston by Dick Rudolph.
The American League standing, printed
in an afternoon newspaper YESTERDAY
shows Detroit with So wins and 81 de-
feats, whereas the Tigers should have
been credited with IS wins and the same
number Of defeats.
Baseball fans of the District always de-
pend upon The Herald for correct ng-
ures in the big league standings.

Capt. George Mcbride, the Nationals
veteran shortstop, afixed his name to a
1915 contract yesterday at a goodly In
crease over the present figures, and as
he has signed one Of the new instru-
ments with the ''ten-day clause" elm
mated, there is no chance for the Federal
Leaguers to grab him.
Grifith has slowly but surely gathered
about him his official family, and with
the exception of Walter Johnson and
two other players everybody on the,pres-
ent roster is tied down to contracts
which will keep them from doing BUSH
ness with the outlaws.
1t is no open secret that Grin and
johnson have about agreed upon terms
and before the 1914 flag drops every val
liable player to Washington will be un-
der contract.
This is great stun in a way but 1t
knocks into a cooked hat lot Of win
ter dope the local scribes have been
depending upon for stove league gossip
Like the umpfres, the baseball report
ers score plays from the press box as
they see 'em, but the writer, unlike some
umpires, is willing to admit that griev-
ious mistake was made in recent
game while Doc Ayers was pitching.
During the first inning OF Thursdays
contest Ayers slammed the ball over to
Gandn on two different occasions to
catch runners mapping, and as both
throws got away from Gandil. II looked
from the upper tier as II the pegs were
wild, and consequently Ayers was
charged with the errors.
Umpire Egan, who was on the Job, in
formed US yesterday that the errors
should have been charged to Gandil as
both throws were perfect, the ball shoot
ing over with such speed that the first
sacker misjudged them.
Louis Dougher, the official scorer to-
gether with the writer charged Ayers
with these errors, and the Virginia
voungster should be held blameless.
Even Chick Gandfl admits that he was
TO blame, and when GandiI makes such
a confession, there can be no doubt
about the matter.
Jennings Detroit Tigers meet the Ma
tionals here this afternoon and Ty Cobb
will be in the visiting lineup.
Joe Engel and Walter johnson are the
overnight Griffithian entries for box duty,
while Jean Dubuc will more than likely
twirl for the opposition.
