TWO INCHES SAVE
GIANTS FROM DEFEAT

New York, Aug. 26.-Every National
ball club winning a game by two
inches?
Most likely you haven't, so it may
be interesting to tell of how the
Giants happened to do it in their re-
cent series at Cincinnati.
1t was the last game of the series
and McGraw's gang was in the lead.
to . The last of the ninth came
along. and with a two-run lead, the
Giants went humming about their
work, satisfied that within a few
minutes they would be on their way
20 the shower.
1t didn't matter that Neale and
Thorpe raped out singles with one
down. The Giants were not worried
over a trife like that. But the next
batter up almost caused a riot. Ivy
Wingo stepped to the platter and
took a long, healthy swing at the
pill. There was a crash and the ball
went sailing toward the depths OF
right field. 1t landed in the farthest
corner of the field and bounced over
the fence for a home run. Neale and
Thorpe brushed around the bases to
the home platter, closely followed by
Wingo.
But 1t wasn't a homer. Umpire
Byron ruled the ball fell foul by
about two inches, and thus 1t hap
pened that two inches stood between
the Giants and defeat.

few BALL PLAYING
BROTHERS IN MAJORS
The Case of Stanley and Harry
Coveleskie Is UNIQUE.

New York. Aug. S.-There are
many ball-plsying brothers in the
minors and in semi-professIonal
ball. but few brothers ever invade
the major leagues. and the case OF
Stanley and Harry CoveIeskie is
unique. because both are rated as
stars, and both are pitchers.
But the Coveleskie boys are by
no means the only brothers under
contract with the big league teams
this year.
Clyde Milan. the outheIding star
OF the Washington club, has a
brother on the same team. and the
brother. Horace Milan. is also an
outfelder. Though the younger
Milan is not a regular, he Is. never
theless. being kept on the payroll
by Clarke Griffith because he has
shown Grin something, and the
time may come when the two Milan
boys will play side by side in the
regular lineup.
Two other brothers are drawing
salaries from a major league team
this season. Zach and Mack Wheat.
OF the Dodgers. are the lads. and
President Ebbets has had a string
to both OF them for several sea-
sons. The Wheat brothers play
different positions. for Zach csvorts
IN the outer gardens. while Mack
is a catcher. and a good one. too.
So the Coveleskies. the Milans
and the Wheats have something to
crow about, for when a ball-play-
ing family sends two OF its mem
bers TO the big show il has the
right TO claim distinction.
In the minors this year there is
case where three brothers may
be found playing ball. though not
In the same class. Otis Crandall is
pitching in the Coast League and
his brother, Karl IS a member OF
the Salt Lake club Of the same
circuit a younger brother OF this
pair has bloomed out as a pitcher
and. although he has had several
trials with big minor league teams.
he is still getting his education IN
the smaller minor leagues.

SECRETARIES LOSE
TO CAPTAINS TEAM
Interesting lnterclub Match Staged
Before Large Crowd in Po-

One Of the largest crowds that ever
witnessed cricket game in this city
was present yesterday to see the
Captains team gain victory over the
Secretaries outfit by a score of 81 to
81, in the club match staged by the
Washington Cricket Club. in Potomac
Park.
There were many interesting fea-
lures in the scientific combat, not the
least being the splendid batting of
G. II. Winter. formerly star on the
University of Pennsylvania eleven
when that team toured the British
Isles. Hon. w. II. Carter also used
his bat most vigorously and adroitly,

Cannon also did his bit. Representa-
tive Carter's fielding was of giltedge
variety retiring Byron and Lackey af-
ter long chases for the fast flying

for his work.
1t was the general opinion of those
present that had the famous Griswold

GIANTS IN SLUMP AS
QUAkERS MAKE DRIVE
New York City Fans Believe Team
Has Gone Stale.

New York. Aug. %.-Have the
Giants gone stale?
This is the question that Is troubling
New York fandom today. The mad
spurt Of the Phillies is throwing a
pang OF fear in the hearts OF the
rooters of the McGraw clan. Visions
Of the pennant "all but cinched" are
being clouded by the specter from thu
Quaker City.
Two weeks ago the Giants came
back from the wild and woolly" with
lead of thirteen games safely tuck
ed In their knapsacks. Slowly but
surely the Moran band has cut into
this. Today the Giants are only nine
games in the van. For two weeks
the New York team has been playing
mediocre ball.. while the Philiies have
been playing the brand of the nation
al game that won them the pennant
two years ago. /.
McGraw has to depend on his south
paws-Sallee, Benton and Schupp-for
his victories. His right-banders-Tes-
reau, Anderson and Demaree-have
failed in the drive. II they can come
back, and New York fans are root
ing for the starboard Fingers to
come to the aid of the port-siders,
then II will be all over.
On the other hand, the twirlers in
the Phillies' camp are hurling their
broadside with deadly aim. Alexan-
der is going great guns. Mayer and
Rixey are not far behind the King"
But the one great cause for rejoicing
in the Moran stronghold is the come
back" of big Chief Bender, the In
dian twirler. hero of many a worlds
series in the day OF the unbeatable
Athletics. Bender has won his last
five games. Three of them were
shut-outs. In the other two he has
allowed his opponents but one run in
each game.
This is why the Philiies' rooters are
rejoicing and are confident the Quak-
er City lads will win in the drive to
the wire.
Tho two teams have nine games to
play with each other.
II the Phillies continue TO cut in
roads on the Giants lead before the
clash next week, the PhiIlies' roote-s
say their team will put the finishing
touches to Gotham's pride and crack
wide open the Giant bunch. New
iOihSiS are nOpIlS lnat tne GlantS
will pick up in their play. They are
still confident their team will win, but
their confidence is being shaken
bit by the dash of the men from the
city of Bro.herly Love.
On the weeks play the Giants woa
but four of their seven games, while
the Phillies were victors in six of
their eight games. This Is playing at
a percentage of .572 against $50.
In the American League the race
Is still a. bitter fight between the
White Sox and Red Sox. The Windy
City aggregation Increased its lead
to two games during the week. A
week ago they were only a game
ahead. Chicago won five of its seven
games, while Boston won only four of
its seven. 1t is likely that the fight
in the American League will be de-
cided on the last trip of the Western
teams to the East. The world cham
pions, always strong in their own
bailiwick. must cut down Chicago's
lead before the two teams clash in
their final series. II the White Sox
can hold their own or even Increase
their present lead before they again
go East, the odds favor them in the
fnaf drive.
