Atlanta's rout has proved the league sensation, because, as critics point out, it came so unexpectedly A fortnight ago Nashville and New Orleans, the leaders, were bolstering themselves against the Cracker attacks. The At lanta machine, despite the handicap of four pitchers, was swinging along in great shape and giving every prom ise of certain struggle for lsader- ship.
 Now, with Atlanta facing hard road trip in the southern cities of the cir cult and the team going badly, experts are inclined to turn to Chattanooga or even Birmingham and Memphis as more possible cha1lengers for the dual supremacy of the Volunteers and the Pelicans.
 Chattanooga, with three victories out of four games played. keep right on with the winning streak that be- gan for the Lookouts two weeks ago, and finally put them in third place

 The Anniston club played with a very crippled team all the week and did not have successful result. They played five games and lost three, tied one and won one. Jim Morrison one of the best pitchers in the league and the main de- pendence of the local club, is out of the game with a sore arm; Russell, another good pitcher, was sold to the Charlotte club of the Carolina league, before it was discovered that Morrison was out of the game Lacy, who has played second base for the Holders, jumped the club Wednes- day. As a result, the local club has only nine men and did well under their pres- ent condition, to win a single game dur ing the week. During the week, they lost one game to Griffin, to 8; lost two games to Talladega, 2 to 1 and 8 to l; tied one game with Talladega by the score of to 4, and won Wednesdays game 10 to 3.

 Barons playing a short week also took three out of four and crept up slight ly, while Memphis gathered four out
 of seven, showing considerable form against New Orleans and giving evil dence of excellent pitching.
 The Pelicans, at home and abroad
 have not fared so well, and the weeks
 end found them dropping away from their seasons rivals-the Volunteers New Orleans went through the stretch with four defeats out Sf seven
 games played, while Nashville was winning two out of three. The Volun- teers, despite predictions that Manager
 Ellem's team could not stand the mid
 season strain. has been playing the steadiest game on the circuit. Every
 indication also seems present that Nashville will continue the fast game which has marked it's progress into a
 good grip on the leadership.

New Orleans July 9-(Special.)-Just about the time an impatient Sunday crowd was getting ready to make its exit from Heinemann Park after n wait of nearly two hours on the Bir- mingham ball team to make it's ap- pearance, Manager MoleswOrth and the Barons hove in sight at 4'4O o'clock this afternoon and without taking time to practice or Timber up from their prolonged ride from Chattanooga, they got down to the work of whitewash- ing the Pelicans.
 With Dick Robertson and his spit ball playing the leading role, they held the DObbs men scOreIess in seven in- nings. By that time the moon had peeped out and on the tolerance of Um- pire Rudderham, the crowd that had waited so long was given its first taste of moonlight baseball. The score was 1 to 0. Because of the washOuts, the Barons were detOured on reaching Meridian, Miss, and came here over the Illinois Central via. Jackson. Pres ident Heinemann had foreseen a late arrival of the Barons and announced that the game would start at o'clock.
 By that hour a good bunch was on hand, though the rumor had spread rapidly that the Pelicans' opponents could not reach the city before night. Hundreds took in the situation and left the park before buying tickets, but many more considered the difficulties under which the ball clubs were placed and waited it out. Manager Molesworth was telegraphed to alight with men a Carrollton avenue and automobiles were waiting there for quick dispatch to the ball park.
 BARONS FINALLY APPEAR
 Bulletin followed bulletin as the Bar ons approached but most of these were taken with a grain of salt until a pair of park attendants appeared through the side gates with a large bag. A bat bag is very useful, almost indispensa- ble thing. but never before did a bat bag get the cheers that rang out as this bat bag of the Barons hove in sight
 Pretty soon the Barons came in one by one. Molesworth was first, and though

M|DSEASON FINDS DARK HORSES LEAD
 IN MAJOR LEAGUES
Dodgers and Yankees Have Good Lead Over Rivals. DOnOvan's Men Favored
 for Bunting

New York, July 9.-1IidseasOn in the major baseball leagues finds two teams usually not counted pennant contenders, looming up as possible winners. Brooklyn, pennant winner Is years ago, holds first place in the National league and New York, sew eraI times contender but never a winner, leads in the American.
 The Yankees maintained their win ming gait last week, winning two out of three from Chicago, which has been going strong of late. Earlier in the week New York took three out of four games from Washington. Don- ovan's men were favored with good pitching, timely batting and fine field ing.
 Cleveland, the sensation of the first half of the year, about held it's own. The Indians, notwithstanding some in and out pitching, appear to be able to keep up a first division pace Chicago did not do so well as in the previous week and slipped back to fourth place. Boston, by winning five of it's six games, went ahead of both Washington and Chicago. Boston made only two errors in the six games.
 Washington, as in previous years, prominent contender for the first half of the season, now is slowly slipping into the second division.
 Brooklyn by winning all of it's five games, improved it's position at the head of the National The Superbas won three games from New York and began the second western trip with two victories Robinsons men have been leading the league since early May and apparently are standing the strain well.

Meusel had hurried into his uniform and though he is a stranger to them, there were cheers for Meusel Each got his quota until the game was on and the fans had to transfer their applause to the home boys. The expectation that the Barons would immediately begin to bob ble 'eu and boot 'em as a result of their long train ride without the usual timber ing up did not pan out. Instead the vis- itors gave two or three sparkling exhibi- tions of fielding, and as Robertson was
 in the best of form it didn't take the fans long to realize that they were to see regular ball game.
 The first disappointment came in the Pels' failure to score on a two-baser and a single in the second inning. with a walk in between. Sylvester made the double. and in trying to score on Bluhm' s single, was begged out by Eschen.
 This ex-Pelican, by the way, showed some base running in the fifth inning that made every Pelican partisan wish he was back in the Pelican fold. He stole both second and third as clean as a whistle, which is some stealing when it is remembered that Walker, with all his speed working, was pitching, and Higgins catching. t,
