hats and threw the fragments into tho
field as a token that they were highl,
interested. The game had to be called
more than once, so that the debris
could be cleared. The defeat dropped
with St. Louis.

box by the Yanks, to the grant glee o1
the Yankee fans, who will never for,

Quinn Starts Badly
Quinn started badly and got worse .s
he went along. He showed signs OF
having gone pretty stale. In the tenth
he was finally removed, but not until
four runs had been scored and the
bases were filled. Pete Schneider
forced another run in and Lutte Nelson
finally finished the game. A post NOR

lleve that the Yankees might have had
chance if Quinn had been removed
earlier.
1t would seem to a man on the fence
that the manager might have suspect
ed that Quinn was not at his best
when Bobbie Veach hit him for a
homer to the right-field stands and
Henry Heilman hit him for another to
the left-feld bleachers. But Quinn was
kept in until the score was 12 to 8 and
all doubt of the Tiger victory was re-
moved.
The Tigers showed their claws in

While the muddy Mr. Ruel was at

misery rose from the hearts of the
Yankee fans, and Colonel Tillinghast

late wife of one Lot, who turned into
a pillar of salt.
Roger Again on Job
But Roger Peckinpaugh, old reliable
Roger, put the Yankees back in the
running in the fourth Quinn drew
a base on balls and Chick Fewster,
with a beautiful dash of speed, beat
an inficld hit. AS Peckinpaugh stepped
up to the plate the multitude implored
him to hit. In answer to the fervent
prayers Peck crashed a two -bagger to
left, scoring Quinn and Fewster. That
tied the score, and Colonel Tillinghast

had been lowered by tender hands

While this tense struggle was being
staged, Hughey Jennings, the famous
exile of Detroit, sat fdgeting in box
near the Tiger cage. The exile has not
lost any flesh since the fearful ban
ishment was pronounced against him.
He does not know yet whether he
goes to ST.. Helena or Cincinnati. All
he asks is that he be permitted to see
his family before he goes.
Once more the Yankees forged to the
front in the sixth. Bode drew base
on balls and went to second on Ruel's
out. Chick Fewster, the Baltimorean
Beauty, drove clean hit to left field,
scoring Bodie, but was caught out try
