New York, Sept. S.-Brooklyn de-
feated New York today, to >. in a
thrilling battle before close to 49,
600 spectators and crept back to win

league leaders. Dazzy Vance, twirl-
ing for the Robins. turned in his
thirteenth straight triumph, while
his southpaw opponent Nehf, with
drew under fire after seven innings.
Vance was hit hard but pulled
himself out OF several bad holes
with the aid of superb defensive
work by the Robins. Deberry's
homer, scoring Griffith ahead of him
in the fifth, gave Brooklyn a lead it
never relinquished. Displaying all
the fire and dash that has carried
them through the greatest winning
streak any club has had this season,
Brooklyn out-played and out-gener-
aled McGraw's champions. Superior
work in the field and timely hitting
behind Vance's great twirling car
ried them TO victory.
Deberry's home run drive against
the upper left field grand stand, with
Griffith on base. gave the Robins
their winning margin in the fifth
inning.
Besides Deberry, who had a per-
feet day at bat, the Robin assault
was lea by High, who had a brace
Of booming triples. and the veteran
lack Wheat with a single and dou-
Bile.
Vance held the Giants to six hits
and added six strikeout victims to
his long list. He was hit hard, how
ever, in the third and fourth, when
the Giants scored their only runs,
chiefly through Jackson's triple and
Young's double. and had narrow es-
capes from further damage in the
fifth and sixth innings.

SHERIFF'S DEPUTY SAYS CAREY
WENT WITH HE AND LOOMS
ON HUNT INTO MOUNTAINS

A couple of weeks ago the Herald
told the story of Sheriff Loomis
going hunting and taking with him
editor at the time that the sheriff
taking one Of his prisoners on a
hunting trip was a story of enough
interest to be told. AT the time
the story was written we were well
aware of the fact that the action
of the sheriff had not met with the
approval of the district judge. and
to bring his prisoner in. When the
message was sent to Crandall word
was received back that it vas not
possible to get word to the sheriff
Immediately as he and his deputy
and prisoner were in the mountains
on a big game hunt.
The week following the publica-
ton of the first story. at the request
of Mr.. LOOMS. the Herald again
gave some space to the sheriff. and
told of some hide inspection wors
which he had done while in the
Crandall country. He also told us
at that time. in the presence of a
third party, that his prisoner Dis
not go hunting with him. but re
mained at the ranch of his deputy
1. S. Bispham, while he vas OIL
hunting for big game.
Now the Herald had thought tina
all the space had been used fol
this little episode that it was worth
but complications have set in. FRS
the sheriff sends a letter to thu
Billings Gazette denying the storl
and the Powell Tribune labels Iii,
Herald's article as campaign dop-
Mr.. Loomis is still inclined to der,!
that he took his prisoner hunting
why he does so we do not know
and as far as the Herald is con
cerned it does not personally car
