NEW RIG FOR SHAMROCK ~

Shows Off Well.

SOUTHAMPTON, June 20.-Sir Thomas
EIpton's Shamrock " showed fine turn
of speed in her hrst spin today since her
rig was changed from a sloop's to that
Of cutter.
The new challenger for the Americas
cup quite outpaced the older Shamrock
in a good breeze. The changes in her
canvas and the reduction of the amount
of lead in her keel greatly diminished
her stiffness and increased her pace. She
sailed without a centerboard. but this

BAT OUT A VICTORY
Athletics Defeat Browns
Through Extra Base CIouts.
"STUFFY" McINNIS A HERO
Drives in Winning Run, While
Amos Strunk Saves Game With
Great Catch.

ST. LOUIS. Mo-. June 20.-"Stuffy'
McInnis and Amos Strunk was the COM
bination which STAYED off defeat and
brought triumph to the house of Mack
in the third game of the series with the
Browns here this afternoon. 1t was
McInnis' clout for the circuit which tai
lied the winning runs in the eighth. and
it was .Strunk's catch of a line drive of
the bat of Williams, with two Rickeys
on the paths in the same inning, which
saved the game. The final figures were
5 to 2.
Until the eventful eighth the Browns
held a 2-to-1 advantage over the cham
pions. and with the memory Of two
straight defeats in their minds the Mack
men just grabbed the game out of the
hot Goals by sudden volley of extra
base drives.
Oldring Starts Rally.
Oldring started the rally with single
Collins banged one between first and Sec
ond, but was caught at first by a bril-
liant stop and throw by 1eary, Hamilton
covering the bag. Baker slapped a low
liner to right, and although Williams got
his hands on the ball, he dropped it. and
Oldring baeged the tieing run. while
Baker pulled up at second. McInnis
drove one far over Shotten's head and
made the circuit, with Baker trotting in
ahead of him. And then just for mere
luck Strunk picked out one to his liking
and hoisted it into the right field bleach
ers for the final run of the day.
The Browns nearly tied it up again in
the eighth, only a wonderful running
catch by Strunk keeping the game from
going into extra innings. They began
waiting Shawkey out. With one out
Ernie Walker, batting for Hamilton,
drew pass. and Shotten, after getting
Shawkey in the hole punched to right
for single. Walker stopping at second.
Pratt was easy. but Williams caught one
of Shawkey's fast ones on the end Of the
bat. The ball started for the fence and
the base runners started for home. The
drive was long and low. Strunk turned
and sprinted with the crack Of the bat
Far out in centerfield. almost to the flag
pole. for he was playing deep for VIII
liams. he turned, leaped forward and
got two grasping paws ON the ball for
the final out thus robbing Williams of a
sure home run. That was all, for the
Browns were easy in the ninth. Score:

When a ball team wins a game. az the
Tigers did today, 1t goes without saying
that 1t is getting the breaks. Without
wanting to defect any credit from Sam
Crawford. who was really responsible Tor
the victory, he had to be lucky to have
his drive go safe Other balls were hit
just as hard during the afternoon but
this one was perfectly placed and made
the scoring Of three-base hit neces-
sary. Gandil hit no less than three balls
the left field fence, but they were all
foul by q few feet and Melted him
nothing.
Doc Ayers never pitched moro
clever game Of ball than today. He had
the hard-hitting Tigers completely at his
mercy up to the seventh, yielding but
two scattered hits In six previous innings,
and really never being in danger Of being
scored on. Even the mighty Cobb was
baff1ed by Doc" but not SO with Craw-
ford, who scored two of his teams four
hits off the Nationals pitcher.
Jack Bentley, too, made a splendid i'm
preston. He walked Stanage, the first
man 10 face him. then exercised all the
wisdom of q seasoned pitcher in dispos-
ing OF the next three batters. though
Coveleskie had moved Stanage up to sec
ond with sacrifice.
Despite the fact that the Nationals
seem unable to win, there is nothing
suggestive about their playing savoring
of Generalization. Their fielding con-
tinues to be brilliant, and most Of the
time the pitching has been Of the best,
but even when they are credited with
a fair allotment of hits It seems i'm
possible to get them when they are most
needed. Any one who has followed base
ball realizes that the element Of luck
cuts decided figure. and Of late few

For the seventh consecutive time
the Nationals went down to de-
feat today, being beaten by a
I-to-o score by the Detroit Tigers.
y better played and a more inter
esting game could not be i'm
agined. The hitting OF both teams
was even, Ayers allowing no more
safe drives than Coveleskie, four
in number In the field the visi-
tors made the best showing. but
the one tally required to win the
struggle resulted from a long
drive by Crawford in the seventh
inning, which Melted him three
bases This state of affairs, with
one man out, brought the infield
IN and Veach was able to make
grounder which should have been
an easy out go for base hit, and
Crawford ran home with the only
run of the day.
Base Hit Is Lacking.
rs mas been the case in nearly every
game the Nationals have lost during the
present slump. there were again MANY
opportunities to score runs, but the base
hit was missing. In the very first inning
Foster got as far as third on his double
and Cobbs error, but he was left. The
second inning started auspiciously
enough when ShankS was hit by pitch
ed ball: he too got to second, but re-
manned there. Gandil got his hit in the
fourth 1t was looping liner to right |
but he was out at second when he tried
to reach there on the drive The fifth
gave a chance when Bush made a poor
throw after grabbing Morgan's ground
er. Mcbride failed to sacrifice, however,
and. though Morgan eventually reached
second, he was left.
Morgan walked in the seventh after
two were out and also stole second, but
could get no farther Williams batting
for Ayers, singled in the eighth, and
Schaefer was put in to run for him.
Germany died stealing. after Moeiler had
struck out.
There was a chance to win in the
ninth, when after Milan had been re-
tired, Foster walked. Gandil, however
popped up TO Bush and then ShankS
came through with a hit to right which
sent Foster to third. But he was left
there while Morgan rolled an easy chance
to Bush. who threw perfectly to first
There was little to choose between the
pitching of Ayers and Coveleskie Luck
was with the latter when Crawford hit
that triple. Ayers had just retired Cobb
on an infieid play. and perhaps he did not
put all his stuff on the first ball he offered
Crawford. for the latter swung hard,

SHIPPING BILL IS
PASSED BY SENATE
Measure Now to Go to House
for Approval of Amend
ments.
IFrom The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE Senate
to-day passed the so-called shipping
bill, which admits foreign built ships
10 American registry.
Senator Cummins offered an amend
ment providing that in the case OF
foreign built ships purchased by
American corporations in the future
and placed under American registry
more than so per cent Of the stock
of the corporations must be owned
by American citizens. Party lines
were broken on this vote, which re-
suited 26 to % in favor of the amend
ment.
amendment will be stricken out in
conference. Friends of the bill con-
tend that such an amendment would
defeat its real purpose, which is TO
give vessels TO American producers
as quickly as possible. A few hours
earlier the Salisbury amendment, pro-
yiding that when American corpora
tons own foreign built ships admitted
TO American registry, two-thirds of
the stock must be owned by American
citizens was defeated by a vote of 50
to II.
The Jones amendment providing
that foreign built ships admitted to
American registry under this bill may
trade between the Atlantic and Pa
cifc coasts, and the Williams amend
ment, extending the operation of the
Jones amendment to include trade be-
tween United States ports on the Gulf
Of Mexico and those on the Pacific and
Atlantic coasts, we're adopted.

states-North Carolina, South Caro-
lima, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi,
Louisiana. Texas, Oklahoma and Ar
kansas-5O per cent of the emergency
currency which could be issued to

FILMS PIERCE THE SEA
Submarine Motion Pictures on
View at Museum.

Submarine motion pictures, the hrst
ever taken at the bottom Of the ocean,
were shown in New York yesterday at
n private exhibition at the Museum OF
Natural History.
The pictures were made possible by
means of n tube invented by Captain
Charles Williamson and his sons, u. NJ
and ]. F.. williamson. In this tube the
photographer descends TO the bottom
of the ocean and manipulates the cam
era from behind glass. y,
The most spectacular feature Oh the
pictures, which are in five reels, SHOWS
a man-eating shark being knitted by a
diver twenty-one feet under water.
The diver. unprotected by the custo-
mary armor. rips the giant FISH open
as il tries TO attack him. The capture
of a twelve-foot shark by means or
line and bait is also in the reel, the
mannuvrcs Of the animal in the water
being seen clearly.
Pronging sponges at the bottom OF
the ocean and the work of helmeted
diver are revealed, as are schools OIL
fish and the like. The pictures we're
taken in and around the West Indies,
sometimes at a depth of sixty feet. BY
means of arc lights underwater pct
ures were taken at midnight.
Captain Williamson is supposed to
have labored thirty years in inventing
the tube in which the descent IS made.

SENDS GERMAN PROTEST
Bryan Makes No Comment on
British Gable Censorships.

Washington, Aug. Secretary
Bryan to-day transmitted to Great
Britain without comment formal rep
reservations made by Germany on the
subject Of cable and wireless COM
munication TO and from a neutral coun-
try, such as the United States, to bel
ligerent countries.
Germany sought permission to send
code messages through London 10 the
United States. Should Great Britain
continue 10 prevent Germany from
sending cable messages through Lon
don to the United States, it is believed
Germany will make a vigorous effort
to have the United States remove its
censorship on German owned wireless
stations.
The Hague convention expressly
states that it is not obligatory on a
neutral power to exercise censorship
over either wireless or cable communi-
cations.
