Special Dispatch to The Star.
CLEVELAND. June 10.--If Lee Foil
had not practically admitted defeat be-
fore the start of yesterdays frolic with
Washington the chances are that the
Nationals losing streak would still be
unbroken AS it was. the Griffmen are
again traversing Victory road after play
ing a tie game with the Athletics. losing
four straights to Boston. dropping three
in a row to Detroit and playing four
teen-inning tie with Cleveland. The
score was to 4.
Walter johnson was Griff's pitching
selection, and the fact that his team
mates staked him to the largest number
of runs they have given him in long
long time, saved the day for the king
pin twirler for the Indians bumped his
offerings hard. Any time club bumps
Walter for four runs they are entitled
to a lot of credit. But the four count
ers Cleveland made yesterday availed
them nothing. for the simple but very
good reason that Manager Foil figured
that victory against Johnson was
gamble at best and sent Willie Mitch
ell to the firing line. The veteran
southpaw looked the part of a No. l
twirler for five innings. but he helped
to work his own undoing in the sixth
with a wild throw high over Gandirs
head
The count was . to l in Cleveland's
favor when the sixth round was blown

Foster sacrificed him on. Milan saw
Turner was standing far back on third,
and. figuring that Terry would not be
looking for a bunt. laid the ball down
along the third base line on the first
pitch. Turner was caught so fiat
footed that he didn't even essay to pick
it up and make the throw to first; in
stead he waited for the ball to roll
foul, which 1t did not. That proved
to be the break, for then and there
Mitchell seemed to crack under the
strain. Rondeau drove the ball back
at Mitchell with vicious intent, but
Willie knocked it down and recovered

runs Klepfer pitched the last two
rounds.
Howard Shanks proved his sports
manship when he struck out in the
fourth inning. He never offered at the
third strike. but when he saw that the
ball curved right over the heart of the
plate he tossed his bat away and made
for left field. That was in striking con-
trast with Thursday, when he kicked

Chill chased him out of the game.
Boss Foil practically gave up the ship
after the Nationals scored those four
runs. He stuck Morton in merely to
give him little warming up, as Guy
has been off his fodder" for several
days, and Lee wanted to see how he
would act Foil intended to work Guy
only until the close of the seventh in
ming.
Ed Klepfer looked like a million dol
lars in the two innings he was on the
firing line, and the chances are if Foil
had it to do over again he would
send KIepfer instead of Mitchell against
Johnson.
The Nationals won the series, all
right, said series consisting of but one
game to a decision instead of four as
tween the two teams resulted in a
fourteen Inning tie.
The Nationals got away for Chicago
last night at SIS o'clock. instead of
the accustomed midnight departing
hour That meant a longer session on
the rattlers than usual. Griff planned
to use either Boehling or Dumont in
the opener against the White Sox.
Foster saved Johnson's bacon in the
third inning, when. after the Indians
had scored two runs and Speaker was
on second. Gandil hammered Il lusty
siZzler along third. Foster dashed over
behind the bag, cut down the prospec-
tive double and converted it into an
out by grabbing the ball with his bare
hand and putting it on Speaker racing
into the bag from second. Eddie could
never have thrown Gandil out at first.
Waiter showed some nice pitching in
the first inning, after Turner had
singled with one down. Speaker had
walked and both runners advanced on
a wild pitch. by striking out Smith and
forcing Gandil to roll to Mcbride.
Morton equaied Walters pitching of
the first round in the sixth, when he
was sent in for Mitchell. With Shanks
on third he forced Johnson to foul to
Turner, while Wamby threw out Nc
Bride. Gandil gathering in a wide
throw with his gloved hand.

ball to the latters feet as he made his
dash for the logical net position. In
the second set Brock began to play
from the back line, where his hard
