McGRAW HAS ALIBI

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Slump
of the New York Giants, which has
raused the reduction of their lead
to three and half games, is blamed
by Manager John j. McGraw on a
reaction from the strain imposed on
the club III its last invasion of the
west.
McGraw said he was, not worried
because the Giants have Brooklyn,
Boston and Philadelphia coming
and the Reds and the Pirates have
eight more games to play against
each other.
"We are in terrible hitting
slump and it cannot last forever,
McGraw said. cit is something to
be able to hold the lead under the
present conditions
McGraw said he had about given
up hope of being able to play

season, and that he would be forced
to use Frisch at third and Bancroft
at second.

100000 WILL SEE
GREAT HORSE RACE

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Prepara-
tions are being made by the direc-
tors of the Westchester Racing as
sociation to accommodate 100000
spectators when Papyrus, winner of
the English Derby meets the best
American three year old at Belmont
Park October 20.
Grandstand facilities will not
permit of such a huge gathering,
and the infield will be open for
the thousands that will be willing
to stand to see the biggest race of
modern years in America.
Hardly had the negotiations been
completed with Ben Irish, owner of
the British horse, when some OBJ
jections began to be raised here
and on the other side.
In making the announcement of
the race no mention was made of
a ''world IS champion race but it
got in print and it did not make a
hit ON the other side.
to admit that Papyrus is the best
horse in England, and French track
followers set up the claim that Epi-
nard, the French horse, is the fast
est animal in Europe.
Zev Owners Object
Some minor difficulties also have
been encountered here. 1t is re-
ported the owners of Zev, the great
three year old of the Rancocas
Stable, do not want to start him
in the trial sweepstakes which have
been proposed as a means of find
ing the American color bearer. They
believe that Zev should be the
American representative on his
season s record.
Several other owners OF horses
not mentioned in the five or six
candidates are also howling that
they should have a chance to win
the big prize.
Objections of British turf men
that Papyrus is not the best horse
in England should not hold, how
ever, as the same condition exists
=
here, where there has been no three
year old of such outstanding abili-
ty that could be accepted and run
as the official American champion.
Papyrus will carry the colors of
England as derby winner and
the best of the biggest race of the
season, and the American horse Sc
lected will be one that, in opinion
more than anything else, is the
best in the United States.
Regardless of arguments that
are rather political, intense inter
est has been aroused in the race
and if the officials are able to
make room for 100000 spectators it
is certain that many will see the
race.

four STR; ght pennants If they are
able to maintain the same power
and strength that carried them
along so well in the present drive
for the pennant.
Making allowances for the fact
that the team might be wrecked
for this season, and for next year
also. if some bad accident should
befall Babe Ruth or one or two
other of the star players, it seems
that with the exception of Deacon
Scott and Wally Schang, the play
ers ought TO be as good next season
as they are this year.
Scott has been been slowed up. 1t
is only natural that he cannot cover
as much ground as he once did,
when he was younger and more ac-
tive. The strain of playing III
more than l 900 consecutive games
necessarily exacted its toll, even
if it is argued to the contrary that
steady, consistent work might have
kept him in better condition and
improved his work.
StEanE Has diso SIuNth up SAN"'
lv. He is another veteran of years
and the grind of day after day
work behind the bat. He was out
for large part of the present
season and the injuries which laid
him up are sure to be aggravated
with more and continuous work.
While it has not been officially
confirmed, it is understood that the
Yankee management has already
made provision for the replacement
of Scott by the purchase of Joe
Boley, the Baltimore star, for
whom Jack Dunn refused $123,OOO
early in the season.
No new catchers have been Sc
cured to fill in behind the bat, and
first-clas catchers are not to be
picked up over night. Hoffman is
better workman than he showed
this season, as he was in bad physl-
cal condition when he was forced
to step in and take Schang's s place.

WADSW0RTH To Be
NEW SENATE LEADER
Brilliant Young New Yorker Will
Direct Republican Strategy
In Upper House of Congress

WASHINGTON, Feb-"Slim jim"
Wadsworth, more sedately known as
the Hon. James W. Wadsworth, Jr.,
junior senator from New York, is
being groomed to succeed Henry
Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, as
majority leader of the senate in the
next congress.
Wadsworth is 45, full of pep and
pugnacity and a bred-in-the-bone
Republican partisan. Wherefore he
is loked upon as offering the party
the fighting sort of leadership that
will be needed. and which may not,
because of his years and tempera.
Mental limitations, be expected
#Om Lodge. Lack of firm and stim-
ulating leadership, which it is he
lieved Wadsworth might give, is
blamed for failure of the senate ia
handle successfully the party pro.
gram of the past two sessions.
Wadsworth's biography in the
congressional directory gives his
business as "live stock and farm
ing" He is not, however, a mem
Der of the farm bloc,.N Western
farm members look upon him rather
as LANDED proprietor" who, when
not in Washington, lives on his 11OO-
acre estate near Geneseo, N. Y.
Farm-blockers consider him rather
as "silk-stocking" senator, his ex-
perience as manager of a big ranch
at Palodura, Tex, merely the quest
OF a wealthy youth for thrills, and
his present farming activities as a.
hobby.
Lots of Experience.
They do recognize, however, that
as a legislator he has both expert
ence and tradition in his favor. His
father, James w. Wadsworth. Sr

senator at 49,.
Having seen service in the Porto
Rican campaign in the war with
Spain, Wadsworth was assigned 10
the committee on military affairs
when he came to the senate in 1915.
He is now chairman of that commit
tee and as such has many preroga-
tlves and much power. If he be-
comes senate majority leader, we
may expect a program of adequate
military preparedness.
At 25 young Wadsworth married
Miss Alice Hay, the daughter of the
then secretary of state, John Hay.
they have three children, one
daughter and two sons.
Mrs. Wadsworth took an active
part in the fight against suffrage,
heading the National Association Op-
posed to Woman Suffrage. Senator
Wadsworth voted against the suf-
