Better of Two.

NEW YORK. May 6.-The pitching OF
Ray Keating at the Polo Grounds yes
terday was sound enough to win often

loss but the pitching of Weldon wye

the Yankees were beaten. and forced
back to second place. The score was 2

parties thereto, and two runs on one side
and one on the other were all that were
entitled to be made off the service. The
two runs of the champions were entirely
untainted by any misplay, while a wild
pitch was fused into the New York
score.
IT was a pitchers battle, strictly so.
but with nothing dull about 1t and no
dearth of action. Yet all there was to

the Brookfeds' star player. who Is I'M
der suspension for jumping to the
Giants, went to Brooklyn yesterday and
had a conference with Business Man
aEer Dick Carroll and Manager Lee
Magee. 1t is now said that Benny Is
satisfied with his contract with the
Brooklyn team. and that no will be In
the lineup as soon as President Gill
moro lifts the suspension.
Kauff will be made an example of In
the good cause OF discipline. President
Gilmore wanted to make the player pay
a large fine, but through the intcrces-
sion Of Manager Magee. the fine was
not applied. Kauff. while under suspen-
sion, will go to Washington Park and
practice with the club to keep In shape.
but he will not be permitted to sit on
the bench during the games.
AS for the salary and bonus differ
erces between Owner Robert B. Ward

Diamond Dope.

Boston's noted pitching triumvirs of
last year-Rudolph, james and Tyler
aren't blazoning the baseball sky so
far this season. Rudolph has won two
games and lost three; James has pitched
part Of one victory and one defeaS, be-
ing knocked out OF the box in the for
mer. and Tyler hasn't started yet.
Fred Merkle is hopeful of being back
in the game in two weeks. but his in
jured arm Is still much swollen. Not as
bad as when was first hurt though. :"
says the first baseman. for then it was
a shapeless mass
Giving the subject calm consideration
It would appear that anybody on team
which has Just had a player caught by
the hidden ball trick would rather stay
out of sight on the bench than fare
forth to kick.
Unusual thing about the batting Of
Butch Schmidt. who as Stallings says,
is the best first baseman in the game.
His first nineteen hits represented to-
tai OF thirty-six bases. Meaning that
the hits averaged close to two bases.
B. Becker. of Moran's Quaker mob, Is
the n. L. leading home run hitter, with
four. three of the same being on
New York pitchers.
Six double headers in the Federal
League already. At this rate along in
the summer the fans VIII be so cloyed
that they'll want triple headers.
So far as facial features are concerned,
1t may be that there is little choice be-
tween stopping Rigler's fist and his
mask.
Donnerwctter, and aiso sacre blcu:
Groh leads the National League in hit
ting and Fournier the American.
Ray Fisher has contributed more to
the present standing Of the Yankees
than any other pitcher He has won
all four Of his games. He hasn't been
fctcd verbally as much as Caldwell. but
has landed more victories
