Cards Doing Good Job.

St. Louis, Aug 1.-The Giants again played listless baseball here yesterday and again were whipped soundly by Rickey's tail end Cardinals. This west ern trip, which started like a joy ride, is rapidly developing into a sad re- treat.
 After that tough series in Cincin- nati the Giants figured they would drop into a soft spot here with the St. Louis rear guard. Instead the Cards have cleaned them up twice. Yester- day the Cards made merry with biz Fred Toney, the burly Tennessee mountaineer, and won by a score of 8 to 4
 McGraw kept Toney in the box throughout the game, though he was massaged for 13 hits. Rodgers Hornsby, the St. Louis batting star, especially took delight in pastin g Toney. He alone was responsible for half of St. Louis runs. Tn the first in ming Rodgers slapped a homer to the center field fence, scoring Stock ahead of him, while in the eighth he singled with the bases full, sending in two more runs. The score:
 New York 2O0O0-4 g 0 St. Louis .20O03O3Ox-3 13 ,

took cOgniZance of the interview giV- en out by Frank Navin, president of the Detroit club, in which he suggest ed other clubs might try to boycott the Yankees in the event they tried to pitch Mays.
 That is dangerous talk" said Col. Huston, "especially in view of the fact that baseball got q pretty hard bump in court recently on just such a charge. It doesn't behoove d club owner to speak of boycotting one of his fellow clubs.'
 It was further pointed out by Rup- pert and Huston that if any club should refuse to play against Mays it's officials and players immediately could be arrested on the charge of contempt of court.
 However, the Yankees desire only the friendliest relations with all their fellow clubs, and last night Ruppert sent telegrams to all other American league club owners inviting them to come to New York for a meeting next Monday to discuss the Mays mat ter. The telegram to the owners was Worded as follOWs:
 Under compulsion of the action of the president of the American league as to the Mays controversy we have under advice of counsel been obliged to initiate legal proceedings to enjoin him or any club influenced by his threats from doing acts to the irrep- arable injury of our organization and yours as well, when the occasion should arise in your case. Now that these proceedings have been begun we desire to meet you in the most friend ly spirit, and accordingly invite you, as we have invited the other clubs of the American league, to discuss the subject fully with us at the Hotel Biltmore on the 11th day of August in order to lay before you information which will make it abundantly clear to you that our action was essential for the protection of our respective interests in our several club organi- zations and for the welfare of base ball"

BROOKLYN BATSMEN SLAM REDS HURLERS
Sallee and Fisher Prove Easy and
 Leaders Lose 6 to 1

Cincinnati, Aug. 7.--Wilbert Robin son did his old friend, John McGraw, a good turn yesterday afternoon when Brooklyn defeated Cincinnati by to 1, but the Giants fell down before the Cardinals and failed to take advantage of the lapse of the Reds. A secondary feature to the setback of Pat Moran S pennant contenders was the lambast- ing meted out to Slim Salee, in whom the Reds are placing a lot of conf dence in their dash for the flag.
 Sallee was pounded to all corners of the lot and had to be relieved as early as the second inning. Ray Fisher, the former Yankee, tried to shoulder the burden but he was slammed lustiy and was taken out in the third round with two out. Luque, the Cuban, then took the mound and succeeded in stopping the scoring.
 While the Superbas were holding high carnival with the old claymore, with Olson and Johnston leading in the attack, Leon Galore was making g the Reds jump through a hoop and roll over. Cadore was in his best form and held the locals to four hits, which were as scattered as the republican vote in Mississippi. Cadore, in addi- ton, got two hits and drove in two runs Cadore would have scored a shutout but for a huff by Griffith on Groh in the ninth inning. Groh was forced by Roush but Neale singled to right, Roush taking third. Kopf lift ed a sacrifice fly to Myers and Roush scored. The score:

.FORGER WAS CAUGHT
Nabbed BY Clever Clerk In
Store At OWatonna
SAYS HE NEEDED CASH
Claims That He Has Been Sick
For Some Time; Admits
~. His Guilt "

Owatonna, November 11.-Caught
by F. j. Sisser after he had cashed a
forged check at the Kelly company,
a stranger who says his name is
Thompson is locked up at
the police station awaiting a hear
ing in municipal court tomorrow.
When arrested he said that he had
cashed five checks for SIS each. He
had 1914 in cash and two checks
when searched at the police station.
The forged checks which were
turned over to the police last night
were drawn on the Security State
bank in favor of Elmer Masterson''
and were signed "John Hartle." They
were cashed at the Kelly company,
the J. c. Jahreiss clothing store and
Orlowski Bros. and Parrot & Smith.
The prisoner said that he had CASH
ed another but. that he did not re-
member who accepted them. The
checks, found in his pocketbook were
drawn or the National Farmers bank.
They also were made out to Elmer
Masterson" and were signed John
Hartle.'' 49, .g Bt 81 IN
Energetic Clerk Catches Him.
Entering the various stores last
night, the stranger made small pur,
chases, mostly .handkerchiefs. He
rendered the, checks in payment. and
pocketed the change.
F. J. Sisser of the Kelly Company
became suspicious after the stranger
had cashed check and left the stores
He called Mr.. Hartle on the telephone
and learned that the check was a fore
gerry. Mr.. Sisser started out 10 search
for the stranger and found him in
front of Rosskopf's Pool room on
North Cedar street. Mr.. Sisser seized
him and took him inside and had a
bystander telephone to the police.
Patrolman ole j. Guam arrived and
took the man to the police station.
Holders of the other checks took them
to the station few minutes after the
arrest had been made.
When arrested, the stranger said
that bis name was Thompson. An
Identification card in his pccketbook
contained the name Ray Sloaman,"
Council Bluffs, Ia. He declared that
this was not his name.
Needed Money, He Says.
Needed money to get medical at
tention," was the reason he gave for
forging the checks when he admitted
his guilt to the police. He declares
that he has been ill for sometime.
Questioned as to how he <happened
to sign John Hartle" to the checks,
the man said that he had been around
town for few days and had learned
that Mr.. Hartle is prominent farmer
and that he believed check signed
by him could be easily cashed.
Can it be that the fellow under ar
rest at Owatonna is the same one who
has been handing out bad checks in
Mankato, New Ulm and various other
towns
