not near his usual strength. Murray's swift service was the only part of his forcing battery of shots that had not been seriously affected by his long laYOff from the courts and even this was not markedly effective, the first ball being d fault frequently when the Californian tried to rush the net following in behind his weak ground strokes Tilden generally had the ad- vantage of position and either won the points by beautifully timed drives down the side lines as the tearing, StOrming Murray charged from his base line or he followed his shots by sharp Volleying to the court corners. Murray was never a lObber. Had he been he might have given trouble to his tall opponent, for Tilden is not always reliable overhead. The Cah- fOrnian, minus the shots that he usually relies upon to open the way for an attack at the net, was forced to fall back upon his service as his most potent weapon. strong as he Is in this attack Murray could not hope to prevail against Tildcn, who was up to his best game.

Little Nearer home first, a length ahead of Conduit, the favorite.
 As Loftus returned to the scales he was greeted with another round of applause.
 The race of Polymelian was almost phenomenal. This great colt, which has recently been ill., carried 40 pounds and ran like a ROseben. Aft CT a long delay at the post he got away very badly and before an eighth of a mile had been covered seemed beaten. Jockey McAtee then got him into his stride and chased the leaders, but did not try to rush him to the front He allowed his mount to step along freely, but not at his best. This move had the desired effect. It grad ually brought POlymelian closer to the leaders and reserved some of his speed for the dash through the home stretch.
 When strengthened out McAtee gave him one lash with the whip. The colt responded spIcndidly and closed on the leaders. At the final sixteenth pole he had his head in front and in creased this lead to a. length at the finish. old kocnig was second and George Starr third.
 VindeX, d big colt owned by Harry Payne Whitney. defeated a large field of two-year-Olds in the last race in such impressive style as to warrant the belief he will achieve more hon. ors. He raced Different Eyes into submission during the first half mile and won handily.

This boy went south with Connie Mack, but left the team up in Boston to enlist in the navy. Third base is taken care of by Art Smullen, who was with Indian apolis two seasons ago. This boy played with the Groton Iron Works team Saturday against the Newport Naval team, composed Of mostly Bos- ton National league players.

Har- " Payne Whitney's brown lilly Pigeon Wing ran five furlongs on the first race in 57 4-5 seconds, clipping one- fifth of a second from the record made by Eternal last week. Then Polymelian, the renowned Sprinted owner by w R. Coe, in the Luzerne lightweight Handicap and with 40 pounds up covered six furlongs in 1:1O 2-5, eQualling the figures set by Lieut.

An les aged bay gelding Little Nearer, with Johnny LOftuS in the saddle, clipped three and tWO-ffth seconds from the track mark for one mile and tive-sixteenths, going the distance in 2:132-5.
 Each record performance received ferVcnt applause, but the ovation ac corded the horses was mild compared to that shOWered on LOftus when he made his reappcarancc on the track.

When the popular little jockey appeared on the track riding Naturalist a shout arose. Thundrrous applause greeted him as he guided his mount at the head of the parade past the spectators, and it did not cease until the jockey dOffed his cap two or three times. It was a wonderful tribute to great and honest rider.
 Johnny had no luck on Naturalist, While in a contending position and se- riously threatening Fairy Wand, the pacemallcr, at the head of the stretch, Naturalist bolted to the outer rn1l.

BAKER APPROVES BIG SERIES
Secretary of War Baker Will Write to CroMdcr Endorsing Championship Games, He Tells NcWSpaDcrmcn.

Washington. Aug. 24.-The worlds series will be played
 Secretary of War Baker late yester- day finally put the seal of his official approval on d time extension for those players called in the draft who will participate in the pOst-season games between the winners of the American and National League pCnnants. In tho course of his daily conference with the correspondents the Secretary said:
 "The baseball commission asks me to give official sanction to the worlds series and my disposition is to do II. l will write to General CrOWder and tell him that l would be glad to have the local draft boards informed that I am in sympathy with an extension to September , for such persons us will be involved in the worlds series"
 This means that the. long anxiety of the baseball world is at an end, for while Secretary Baker refrains from issuing an order directing the local bOadS to extend the time of calling to the colors players involved, his wishes will be respected by all of them and the national commission may now pro- ceed with plans for the annual dia- mond classic.
 Secretary Bakers decision did not come as a surprise, for he had all ready indicated that he was faVorhlV disposed to making the playing of the series possible, largely becaus" of the interest he was informed that the American soldiers at the front have in the national sport. It was his cOnVic- tiOn that events of this sort stimulate the enthusiasm of the soldiers for their own sports and are generally val in, inf

 It Tained real heavy before the game and the fracas was held up for a spell while the grounds were being drained The game probably would not have been played but for the fact that the Cubs Claws Club, an organiza- tion which intends to WhOop it up for the Cubs in the worlds series. was scheduled to attend the game in body with their band.
