fate Of the big appropriation BILL

WATCHING THE
SCOREBOARD

The Detroit Tigers refused to
salute the prodigal Earl Hamilton
gun for gun on his first appearance
after his jump to the Federals and
back again and he promptly sank the
Jennings craft
Hamilton allowed six hits. but. Ty
Cobb got nary a one. Sam Crawford
smashed out a single and double.
The pitchers are having the best
Of the arguments so far. There were
four shut-outs yesterday, the Yankees
mixing in the merriment by again
ripping the hide from the Athletics
and applying the whitewash
Caldwell held the Mackian forces
TO three measly hits, divided between
Murphy, Baker and McInnis.
Joe Boehling treated Boston even
worse. He held the Red Sox to two
hits, and administered the second
shut-out they have received at the
hands Of Washington.
Aitohison, International League re-
cruit, stepped in among the brush
wielders by holding the Boston
Braves to five hits and no runs while
the Brooklyn Dodgers drove in five
off Rudolph.
The Pirates made II three out OF
four against the Cardinals and in this
game the shut-Out sign was also hung
up. Kantlehner yielded only four
hits and Perrit ran him a close sec
ond by holding the winers to six.
The Giants were smeared again by
the Phillies. Merkle's four-base
knock scored their only run while
Tosreau was being laced for eight
safeties and three runs.
The crippled Maps tumbled again
and the White Sox made Il four
straight. Home runs by Harry Lord
and John Collins we're more or less
discouragers for Cleveland.
The Cubs slowed away their game
with the Cincinnati Reds when two
triples and two bases on balls we're
responsible for three runs. The Reds
couldn't cut down the lead
OF the three games in the Federal
League, two went into extra innings.
