All OF these left handed gents were
dubbed real promiscuously. Cullop was
banged for ten hits In ive rounds and
suffered his second defeat of the year.
The other was hung on Chilhowie Nick
by the Tigers about six weeks ago.
The Yankees pounded Weilman as
this season-much harder than those
thirteen binglcs would indicate. But In
the pinches they would hit terrific drives
direct at waiting Brownies. The
stretched II summer Missourian got
wonderful support, especially from Pratt.
Shotton and Sisler.
In the FIRST inning. after High ard
Peck stabbed line singles. Piyp also re,
one on the beak. II streaked on a line
toward right field. but Prat made a MIR
acle one handed catch. and doubled
Peck on crst. In the ninth inning Bert
Shottor ran into The Bronx, where he
committed n stunning catch on Magea.
As Maisel preceded Lee with a single
and High followed Mac with another.
that catch Just blot;ed out two sure runs.
However. Jones had Davenport all
warmed up in case the Yankees got too
fresh. Sisler continued to twist himself
into a pretsel and drew in all sorts of
untamed throws. George also hit "A
triple and a single, and drew a pass he
ran these ingredients into three runs.

car. Weilman probably will long re-
member this game. Twice he intended
to help along Johnny Lavan with a sac
rifice. u each time he dunbfounded
himself by beating out the bunt.
Two were out In the first when the 81.
Looey boys started work on their first
run. OF curse Slsier started IL. He
bounced a single of Cullop's glove and
new to third OIL his lame pin when Pratt
spanked a single to right. Mullen took
Oldring's throw in and discovered that
Pratt was half way between second and
FIRST. He threw wild to Pip to trap
Derre!l. and Sisler came home.
The Brownies again waited until two
birds were down before they got busy
on their second run In the second. Lavan
birched one down to Baumann. which
Paddy checked. but could not field. The
long Weilman walked, Lavan taking
second. from where he scored when
Shotton floated " lazy double into short

at a time. Two again were out when
the Browns scored their third run In

the Giants were in for the daily SHUT
out. but with the score . to 0 against
them when they went to bat In the ninth.
the Giants tied the score with "A pair of
runs. The game then ran into extra
innings and the Giants rammed Bob
Harmon for four runs in the eleventh
inning. and won their second victory OF
the trip. The score vas 6 to 2. The
victory came after six straight defeats.
Harry Sallec. the long left handler.
who had lost I TO 0 games In both
Chicago and -. Louis. pitched seven

For a time 1t seemed the slim sheriff
would he shut out again. Lobert batted
for him IN the eighth. and then Tes-
reau. who did such horrible pitching
yesterday. came back with Il good game,
and held the Pirates in check.
Bob Harmon. the veteran. who with
Sallee was the best part Of the Cardi-
nal pitching stan when Bresnahan was
fighting for the pennant In 1911. OPP
posed his old hurting mate. Harmon
pitched much better than he has been
doing lately. Either that or they all
look good against the Giants. Early
IN the game he was very effective. but
the Giant hits started to pile up late
IN the am and the New York men
ended with thirteen safetics on their
side OF the box score.

WALSH CALLS ON ROCKEFELLER
TO GIVE UP COLORADO PLAN"
Washington, Aug. 5. - Frank P.
Walsh as chairman of the committee
on industrial relations has sent a tart
response to the telegram of John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., in which the junior
oil king pleaded he had no informa-
ton on the decision of the Colorado
supreme court, in which the court
charged the Colorado Fuel & Iron Co.
with prostitUting the ballot.
Walsh, in view of this confession
Of ignorance, calls on Rockefeller to
abrogate the industrial plan" for
operation and government of the
Colorado mines, adopted when the
young capitalist was in the state last
fall.
Your avowal of ignorance of the
fraudulent and criminal results of
your mastery in Colorado" Walsh
writes, docs not lend hope that you
and your present organization will
bring about better conditions.
con the contrary, the total igno-
rance and misunderstanding which
you plead, taken in, connection with
the abhoTrent facts which the high
est court in, Colorado has now con-
demned in >jubic to the world, are
convincing proof that you should abb
dictate that imperial CONTROL as the
