Without Strings by Tulsa,
Western Club.

Announcement of the sale of
Connolly. Outfielder, was made by
the Moline Fans association today.
The youngster was purchased for

club of the Western league. The
dickering had been going on for
the last several days, and all West
ern league clubs having enjoyed
one Of the best years in the his
tory of the organization, the de-
mand of Moline was met.
That purchase price will mean
much to the fans association in
the way of making both ends bal
anCe on the records of the season,
and probably leave some over to
be devoted to producing a winning
football aggregation.
No strings of any kind are at
tached to the sale. Connolly goes

recommendation of Jimmy Hamil-

Fast and Snappy in Field.

Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. by
beating New York yesterday be-
fore a crowd Of $4,000 people. Gin
cinnati clinched the pennant in the
National league, the first which it
ever has won in that organize
ton. The Reds have seven more
games 10 plays, and even if they
chould lose all of them, while the
Giants won all of the II games re-
naming on their schedule. the To-
cal club would finish one game
ahead. The score today was 4 Ia.
Reuther pitched for the Reds
and was hit hard, being frequently
saved by sensational support. To-
ney pitched we'll for New York aft
or the first inning but his support
was faulty. He was taken out in
the seventh and Nehf finished the
game without allowing a hit.
Three Runs in First.
New York scored twice in the
first inning on a pass to Burns and
single by Kauff and STATE. In the
last half of the same round the
Reds scored three runs on Fetch
er and hits by Roush, Kopf and
Neale.
New York tied it in the fourth
on successive hits by Burns, Kauff
and Krisch. A line throw to the
plate by Roush prevented KauR
from counting when he tried to
come home from second on Frisch,S'
hit to center.
The Reds won in the SEVENTH,
when Schneider opened with a dou-
BILE over first base. Rariden bunt-
ed a fly toward first base which
Kelly muffed and then threw TO
third in an attempt to get Schreib-
er, but was too late Toney then
as relieved by Nehf and Schreib-
er scored the winning run on
Reuther's grounder to Doyle on
which Rariden was forced at sec
ond.
Fast and Snappy.
The batting of Kauff and STATE
for New York and the fast fielding
of the entire Cincinnati team were
the features. Score:

That contract will expire at the

ed that he will draw a bigger sal

past.
AIeck didn't have an awful good
wear this year because he got a bad
start, possibly by getting into the
harness too soon after getting out
of the army. In the last half OF the
season he has pitched in much the
same fashion as he did in his best
years with Philadelphia. 1t was
rumored that he signed a new con
tract recently and was surprised
