CHICAGO, Aug. :7.-So confirmed have
the Yankees become in the habit Of los
ing that they are startled every time
they win. There was nothing In this
afternoons contest to startle them. for
they we're beaten by the White Sox by
3 to o. The victory gave the locals an
other full game advantage over Bos-
ton. which was beaten to-day in De-
troit. The white Sox now lead BY three
games.
There Is one consoling thought for the
Yankees. They can lose only one more
game on this disastrous trip. The tour
ends with to-morrow's game, and the
Yanks will then head for the Polo
Grounds. where a consultation will be
held regarding the precarious condition
Of the team that was thought earlier in
the season to have an excellent chance
to win the American League flag.
Rob Shawkey held the White Sox run
less for six innings. and while the
Yankees we're not apparently able to
gauge the delivery OF Cicotte. who has
always puxsled them. yet II was any
ones game when the Sox began their
offensive In the seventh frame. Shawkey
had barely got started in this inning
when he launched into an argument with
silk O'Loughlin. the hurler objecting to
the tendency of the official to call ball

lin retorted that his Judgment was cor
rect and that there was no reason for II
strike.
Shawkey IL chased.
Shawkey INDUCED In some additional
remarks, whereupon the umpire an
nounced a lockout OF the pitcher for the
remainder OF the entertainment. Nick
Cullop finished the game.
Shawkey started on the inning by
pitching with customary skill Joseph
jackson lined the ball to Peck, who
clutched 1t Felsch walked. Shawkey
exhibited considerable irritation over
this. which was increased when Chick
Gandh also ambled down to first on four
called balls. Shawkey said something
about falling visual powers. silk busted
on the rubber and pointing to it said !:
This is IT,"
Shawkey ground his teeth but pulled
himself together and famed Risberg

been done.

On the way to the dugout Shawkey
stopped to amplify his previous arsu-
ments as TO Silks bad taste In calling
strikes balls. and was instructed to
double quick to the clubhouse.
Faber, who succeeded Cicotte, nearly
equalled Shawkeys record as to pa sses
but as he refrained from debating the
question with Silk he escaped without
any disastrous consequences.
Hendryx and Caldwell, the first two

double play and High famed.
