Morning Game.

Joe Judge presented the New York
Yankees with the morning game when
he handed them the winning run on a
silver platter. Judge apparently lost his
head, and strolled over TO Fosters terri
tory when Pipp hit an easy grounder at
Foster, which would have been the final
out. Pipp got to first base before Judge
could return to the bag for Fosters
throw. This happened in the ninth in
ming and High. who was on third at the
time, scored the only tally of the game.
Harper and Shawkey were the princi-
pals of a pitching duel. Harper was
hit oftener than the New Yorker, but
the run which the Yanks scored never
should have been permitted. and In the
overtime scramble which would have fol-
lowed, Washington's chances to win were
just as good as those Of the visitors.
Four measley hits were all that
Shawkey allowed-no wonder the Grin-
men are not scoring runs for their pitch
ers-the club seems TO have lost entirely
the little punch 1t formerly possessed.
Once again the big playing field here
demonstrated that Baker and Pipp are
not to be feared away from the Polo
Grounds. Pipp got credit for a cheap
single and Baker doubled in the ninth
but on other occasions when these gen
uemen were up in a pinch they were
promptly sent back to the plate.
AS was the case on Monday. the GriI-
men had plenty of chances to put over
runs. but Shawkey. like his teammate
Caldwell, permitted no liberties when
cracks meant chaIks.

EXPECTS WILSON VICTORY.
Ex-Gov. Cox of Ohio Thinks Repub
licans Will Nominate Roosevelt.

James N. Cox, former Governor of
Ohio. was among President Wilson's
callers today. Asked about the political
situation as seen in Ohio, he answered:
Teddy is going to be nominated by
the republicans"
What them"
"Well, you will notice that the demo-
Gratis have not gone to the courts to
have the nomination enjoined. The
fact is that we feel there is no man in
the country who can beat Wilson for
another term in the White House, and
Col. Roosevelt cannot get back into
the White House by the Wilson route.
The controlling thought of the country
is one of gratitude that the United
States has been kept out of war. Our
state is prosperous. Everybody is
working and the people are satisfied
