Indians Lose Game.
by l.. r. Blanchard, United Press
Staff Correspondent.


CHICAGO, Aug. 19.-The finest
sort Of double-header weather was
wasted today in the two major
leagues. For the past three days the
best thing the players have done has
been to loaf. The best offered for to-
day was the Chicago-Athletics and
New York-Cleyeland games.
The game in Philadelphia can have
a bearing on the pennant race, how
ever. and will be watched closely.
Yesterday the Macks took the Soz
down by the minimum score Of one
to nothing, thereby helping jam the
standings OF the SoX and New York
Yanks so closely together that there
Is difficulty in inserting a decimal
point between them
The possible effect of the Chap
man tragedy on the Indians undoubt-
edIy was reflected in the Cleveland
New York game yesterday. The In
dams lost 4 to 3. The loss Of bril-
liant team mate and particularly the
manner Of his going. may upset the
Indians for some time to come.
