that the present makeup is not strong

that the present makeup Is not stron g
enough for this purpose.
The one player who is figured to i'm
prove the Nationals infield the most is
Joe Gedeon. Reports from the coast
are so fattering concerning this form
er member of the team that there must
be great change in his playing now
when compared to what it was while
he was here. Gedeon is slated to play
second for the Nationals next season,
and he is expected to prove a star
there. That is one position of great
importance. Had 1t been competently
looked after this spring the Nationals
would now be very much in evidence in
pected to be the one man available
who will fill the place satisfactorily.
That the Griffith pitching staff also
needs bolstering goes without saying.
1t must be conceded that the locals
had the nucleus for a really great
pitching Department.. The acquisition
of Bert Gallia has been a step forward,
for he has been one of the most effec-
tive pitchers in the league. Johnson.

from this pair the other twirlers are

Of course. shown to much better ad-
whole, this season has not been up to
the standard.
That there is still sentiment in base
ball Is proved in the transaction which
made Mike Kahoe the scout for the
Boston Braves. Gaffney. the owner of
the club, and Griffith have for years
been warm friends. 1t was at the sug-
gestion of Griffith that Gaffney pur-
chased the Braves, and when he ex-
pressed a desire to have Kahoe do his
scouting, he being very popular
with George Stallings. Griffith felt
that he could probably do both Gaff
ney and Stallings a good turn by al
lowing them to open negotiations.
This resulted in Kahoe going to the
Braves, and appears as having done n
great favor to his friend and former

Takes Advantage of Hager-

Slides Safely Across Plate.
GALLIA HOLDS CLEVELAND
TO ONE HIT FOR CONTEST
Not an Indian Reaches First Base
in Seven and Two-Thirds Innings.
Some Brilliant Plays.
BY J. ED GRILLO.

In one of the best pitched games of
the season Bert Gallia scored 1-to-0
victory over Rip Hagerman, pitching
for Cleveland yesterday. The perform
ance of Gallia came near to placing
his name on the honor roll of the ma
jor leagues. for he seemed destined to
go the entire nine innings without al
lowing a base hit or man to reach
first base
For seven and two-thirds innings
Gallia had clean slate. Only twenty
three men faced him during this period
and, of course, not a single one of the
visitors reached the bases But at this
stage Terry Turner got the only hit of
his team and Gallia's chance for get
ting his name on the list of famous
slabmen went glimmerng.
1t was a remarkable game of ball.
the only run being scored on a steal
Of home by Milan in the very opening
inning The fielding on both sides was
not only perfect, but on occasions was
sensational.
Hagerman was not quite as effective
as Gallia. yet his performance was a
brilliant one. He allowed but two hits
and walked three against one hit and
one walk by the Nationals twirler.
Milan Steals Home.
The one run happened in this way:
Moeller started by beating out tap
in front of the plate, on which he
REACHED second when Hagerman threw
poorly to first. Fosters out put him
on third On Milan's tap to Kirke
Moeller was eventually run down, but
Milan in the meantime got all the way
to third. With Shanks up Milan got
running start on Hagerman. who
wound up, and slid over the plate with
the run which decided the struggle.
The Nationals had more opportuni
ties to score than did the visitors, who,
as said before. did not get man on
the bags until seven and two-thirds
innings had been played
In the second, for instance, with one
out, Henry singled and stole second.
but he could not be advanced. In the
third, with one gone. Moeller and Eos
ter both walked. but Milan and Shanks
could not solve Hagerman.
In the sixth Foster, the first man up.
drew his second pass, but again the
next three batters failed to advance
him. Turner, who got the only MT.
and Southworth who walked in the
ninth, were the only two Indians to
reach the bases on Gallia. The score:

Boston Is gaining too much OF lead
at this stage, and there is a clamor
for some team to check the advance
of the Beantown Red Sox. At present
no team seems to have it on the Carri-
gans. The Sox have been consistent
victims of the leaders, and while De-
troit has occasionally been able to
check them, the Tigers will have to be
absolutely certain Of having all their
pitchers on edge If they hope to prove
any sort of a stumbling block for the
leaders when they go there for their
second stay.
The rapid forward strides which the
Boston Braves are making has led to
the belief that the Stallings aggrega-
ton is very likely to repeat its won
derful advance toward the pennant
which made it the wonder of the base
ball world last season. The Braves
are coming at a fast clip. They have
reached the 500 mark and may be
hard to stop from this out. The return
of Johnny Evers has. as was suspect
ed, made a great difference in the team.
Not only is Evers' ability of great
help to his team. but his strategy and
nerve do much to bother the opposing
teams. and this naturally counts for

A deal for an outfielder named kopp.
who Is playing with the St Thomas
team of the Canadian League, has been
called off. Doc" Resisting, once a
pitcher on the local team. who is play
ing in that circuit, besides being a
manager, considered Kopp a coming
star. He made trip down to Detroit
purposely to see Griffith and tell him
about Kopp Griffith instructed him to
see the owners of the st. Thomas
club and get a price on the youngster.
This reached him this morning in the
form of a telegram. and the figures
were so high that the local club would
stand about a. much chance of getting
Ty Cobb or Joe Jackson for the
amount, hence all negotiations were
at once called off.
Joe Roehling is slated to do the
twirling for the Nationals today, and
il is likely that Guy Morton or Jones
will do the pitching against him.
Boehling won his last game in De-
troit. beating the Tigers, to >. If his
good luck in having his teammates
score a lot of runs for him will con-
tinue Boehling should win another
game today.
Nernstein, a local amateur pitcher, is
to be given trial before the game to-
day by Manager Griffith. Vernstein is
said to be the best pitcher of the local
amateurs, and it may be that II ne
shows well enough he will be signed
and given chance to develop.
Had Bert Gallia gone through the
entire game without allowing a base
hit or having a man reach first base
he would have been the only pitcher
in the history of base ball who ever
accomplished this feat for the Wash
ington club.
The nearest that any pitcher wearing
accomplishing this feat was Walter
Johnson on opening day in 1910, when
he shut out the Athletics, and the only
hit made off him was. a pop fly into
the right field crowd, which netted
Frank Baker a technical two-base hit.
On an open field Johnson would have
placed his name on the honor roll that
day, for 1T was the ground rules that
cheated him out of the feat.
Gallia's performance yesterday will
go down as one of the best pitched
games of the season of 1915. The Tex
was too bad that he was unable to go
through the entire game without as
much as allowing man to reach first
base. There are only two instances in
base ball where this has been accom-
plished, Cy Young being one of those
who has this record and Addie Joss the
other.
There were so many brilliant fielding

But there are at least two barriers in
the way Of the Braves which did not
exist last season. One Is the Brooklyn
team. Good judges Of ball teams In
sist that Wilbert Robinson has the best
balanced team in the National League.
It is picked to work it's way to the
front, and stay there, in due time. and
this fact may be the only one which
will prevent the Braves from duplicat-
ing their performance of last season.
The Phillies. too. will be hard to beat,
and that team was one Of the weakest
in the circuit last season. Under the
guidance of Pat Moran. however. the
Phillies have shown real class. It 10 a

Braves will have their hands full

DETROIT is VOTING
ON IMPORTANT ISSUE
Whether the Municipality Will Own
Whole Street Railway System
Sixty Per Cent Affirmative
Vote is Necessary.

Detroit, Mich, Nov. 2.-This city, il
the municipal ownership plan being
voted ON to-day carries, will be the first
in the United States to own and oper-
ate its entire railway system. For many
years Detroit has resounded with argil-
ments for and against the plan. Chicago
and Cleveland adopted settlement ordi-
nances which eliminated, for the time
being at least, municipal ownership. In
San Francisco and Seattle only com
Iparatively small proportion of the mile
age is owned and operated by the peo-
| pie.
To carry, the plan must receive six
ty per cent affirmative vote.
For years all efforts of the local
traction company to obtain new fran
chise grants have failed. As a result,
while the population has increased with
great rapidity, street car service has not
kept pace, and the referendum therefore
is said to have aroused the personal in
tcrest OF most of the voters. The lines
have been operating for the most part
on day-to-day agreement, with tickets
selling for quarter at all times except
during the two rush periods, when eight
for-a.quarter tickets must be honored.
Only on a few miles of track on the
old Pingree three-cent fare lines are
the eight for-a-quarter tickets good at

that the civil service proviso OF the

That the voters do not know precise
