week, and nothing but baseball mir
acle can beat the Braves out of the

with record of eight victories and
only one defeat, Stallings' men es-

games over the Tobogganing New
Workers, who We're sWamped by Chi
cago and st. Louis in the series at
the Polo Grounds. dropping five straight
games before they finally managed to
pull out victory. The Braves have
eleven more games to play and need
only three moro to clinch the cham
pionship, even should the Giants win
all their remaining eleven games.
A further drop is not impossible for
McGraw's men, who are being pushed
hard by st. Louis. two games in the
rear. Chicago also has an excellent
chance to pass the dropping champions
II the Polo Grounders do not improve
their play.
Brooklyn and Philadelphia are night
ing 1t out for fifth place, with the
Superbas coming strong, their record
of eleven straight victories, completed
Saturday. having pulled them up rap
idly. Pittsburgh seems anchored in
seventh place, with Cincinnati hope
lessly last.
In the American league. tho Bostons
lost about their last chance for the
flag by dropping a double header to
St. Louis Saturday. One game of their
double bill in Chicago also went by
the board Sunday, and the Philadel-
phianS are within short sight OF es-
tablishing their right to the 1914 cham
pionship Of the league to a mathe-
NAUTICAL certainty Detroit and Wash
ington are the two bidders for third
place. while Chicago. New York and
ST. Louis are struggling for the modest
honor Of topping the lower division. OF

Clevelands are definitely settled in
position, the cellar berth having been
conceded them for weeks past,
