FOR SEASON

NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-IP)-The
regular major league season has ended
with the Senator's and Pirates, now
preparing for the post-season classic,
in front of their respective packs BY
eight and one-half games each.
Three games in each league were
played as the curtain fell yesterday.
SO far as the standing was concerned
the only result was the Cubs drop
into the cellar of the National League
through a defeat by the Cardinals. =.
On the heels of the Senators and
Athletics, the st. Louis Browns and
Detroit Tigers finished in order in
the American League and will share
in the world series spoils, as will the
Reds and Cardinals, who trailed the
Pirates and Giants in the first divis-
ion of the National circuit.
HORNSBY AND HEILMANN.
Rogers Hornsby Of the Cardinals
led the National batting parade for
the sixth consecutive year, breaking
the worlds record held by himself.
His mark. .403. also made him one
of only three men to hit over 400
for three seasons. The others were
Jesse Burkett and Ty Cobb.
Harry Heilmanh, Detroit outfielder,
won the batting crown in the Amer
lean League for the third time with
an average of 1893. passing iris
Speaker on the last day by making
six hits in a double-header.
Johnny Mostil of the White Sox

American with AZ stolen bases. Max
Carey Of the Pirates led the senior
circuit with 43 thefts.
HOME-RUN CHAMPS.
Hornsby was crowned king of the
home-run hitters in the majors with
30 blows. three less than his own Ma.
tional League record. Bob Mcusel of
the Yankees led in the American with
80 homers, while Babe Ruth, holder
of the record with 30 circuit blows
in one season, finished in deadlock
for second honors in his league with
Ken Williams of the Browns, each

121.
Rain prevented the stunt planned
for George Kelly, Giants versatile
first-sacker, who was TO play one in
ming in every position on the team
just to prove he is an all-around man.
Donohue's victory for Cincinnati
over Pittsburgh was his twenty-first
of the season.
Jimmy Hudgens. first-sacker from
the Western Association, touted as the
best of the years youngster crop at
that position. starred at bat and

It's the first time that the Chicago

FIGURE KAPLAN
OVER HERMAN

NEW YORK, Dec. 14.It was
apparent, from the trend Of Broad
way sentiment today, that Louis
Kid Kaplan, Meriden, Conn, would
enter the ring on Friday a favorite
to retain his featherweight title
against Babe Herman, California
challenger, in spite OF the fact that
many thought Herman won on the
occasion OF their first meeting some
months ago. The bout was held ar
waterbury, Conn. and the official
ruling was draw. ut was far
from popular decision.
In fact. it was SO roundly crit.
cised that the New York commits
sion ruled that Kaplan could not
fight in this State until he had
given Herman another chance. Fri
days bout Is the result.
The existing sentiment in favor
of Kaplan has been influenced by
