TIES UP GAME IN
HILL LEAGUE
Glenn Killinger's Clout For
Four Bases Brings
Fourth Run

Glenn Killinger's home run in the
final inning, enabled the Rosewood
team to tie up the Stanley tossers at
four and in an Allison Hill game
last evening. The game was an
other interesting one that was wit
messed by $50 spectators.
The Rosewood team took the lead
in the first inning, scoring three runs
on as many hits off Connor. The
home run was the only other score
made by that team. The Galahads
tailed all of their runs in the fourth
session on a three-bagger by Howe,
a homer by Irwin Bender, a single,
two dropped third strikes and an
error.
Three Double Plays
Three double plays were pulled off
during the game. The Rinehart,
Hawley, Bricker combination ac-
complished the feat twice, while G.
Killinger to G. Bender broke up a
Galahad batting rally in the fifth.
Buck" Smith started the hurting
for Rosewood but was relieved in
the fourth by Lefty Challenger.
The score by innings:
Ri. E.
Galahad -. 0 0 0 4 0 o. 8 0
Rosewood E. 0 0 o 0 Ia s 4
Batteries: Rosewood, Smith, Chal-
lenger and Marks; Galahad, Connor

SHOWDOWN SURE
FOR M'GRAWISM
New York Baseball Writers
Will Press Measure Waived
by League

New York, June 23.-Although the
McGraw. case now is a closed book
with the National League, it became
evident here that certain New York
baseball writer's who wrote the now
famous interview quoting the
Giants manager intend to form
showdown to vindicate themselves.
Following a meeting of the local
chapter of the Baseball Writers As
sociation it was announced that the
writer's who are responsible for the
printing of certain scurrilous art-
cles" will be asked to make affida-
Wits as soon as they return to New
York with the Giants, setting forth
exactly the authority given them for
their interviews.
The following sport editorial from
the pen of j. w. McConaughly ap-
peared in the New York Evening
Mail, under the caption of McGraw-
ism:
Midsummer Reputation
The midsummer reputation sea-
son in organized baseball is now un-
der way. This grand old commercial
enterprise has been wobbling for
number of years and q few more
slams like the McGraw-Tener repu-
diation contest ought to finish the
business. John McGraw was long
ago supposed to have reformed, but
McGrawism goes marching on.
"Of course, there is no question of
veracity between three or four repu-
table newspaper men on the one
hand McGraw and the National
League magnates on the other--not
in the mind of any one who knows
professional baseball and baseball
magnates. McGraw was fined for
slugging an umpire and said what
he thought about umpires and the
head of the National League. He
| said what he thought for publica-
ton and 1t was published.
Dragged Before Magnates
Then he was dragged before the
! magnates and told to sign paper in
which he declared that he had never
said anything of the kind or anything
that could be construed into what he
had been quoted as saying.
"Of course, McGraw and all the
magnates concerned knew that this
was not the truth, but they wanted
to settle the controversy and it
seemed to be a good scheme to dis
miss the whole thing by casually re-
marking that the New York baseball
reporters who have given with the
consent of the publishers), McGraw
and the Giants and baseball general
| ly ABOUT SzO,UUU,OUU WOTtn OIL Tree
advertising for the biggest outdoor
amusement trust in the world, were
| just a lot of liars.
| "McGraw Immediately followed
this statement with another state
ment in Boston in which he said he
did not mean to go back on the New
York newspapermen, but the pres
| sure brought to bear on me was that
| would cause great injury to the
! National League, the New York
club and baseball, unless l made a
statement satisfactory to the board.
THE statement was satisfactory to
the board apparently, and nothing
is injured excepting thesvested prop
erty interests of the baseball trust,
the value of which is built largely on
the popular superstition that baseball
| games are contests in sport, instead
of open-air vaudeville.
THE baseball writer's will undoubt-
edly remain calm. They have been
lied to so often by baseball magnates
that the change to being lied about
will hardly be noticed"

Crane Still Property
Of Washington Americans;
Lacking Only in Hits

Cark Griffith is not going to part
with Red" Crane absolutely. The
Washington Herald says:
Sammy Crane. the $4,000 beauty
purchased by the Old Fox from Jack
Dunn's Baltimore Orioles last winter,
has not come UP to expectations with
the Nationals. The Old Fox is finally
convinced that Crane is not ready for
the big show, and tonight he VIII
ship him to Joe Cantillon's Minneap-
oils club of the American Association.
Crane, who was the sensation of
the International League last season,
was purchased in the big trade deal
which sent Turner Barber, Rippy Will
liams and Jack Bentley to the Orioles,
while $4,000 purchase price was also
included in the payment for the lanky
York youngster. Crane ranks with
the best fielders that have ever shown
here, but his inability to clout the
ball has been his undoing. Griff will
keep a string attached to him and will
no doubt recall him in the fall.
