NEW YORK, July 14.—The ‘fea- lure of,the past weex in the minors was the winning of. six stralght vic- tories by New Orleans in’ the South- ern’association, which now bids. fair to stand its challengers off during the remainder of July. New. Orleans gained: 30 points by the week's play, which was’entirely too much for the health of its rivals. Memphis made a jump from fifth piace to ‘third. Atlanta knocked Nashville out of second place, But all that is oyer-shadowed by the per- formance of New Orleans, The Louisville club in the Ameri can association has not yet taken its cireult by the*throat, although it will take much.beating to put Louls- vilie out of the pennant lead, In the past week, Louisville lost two points on its standing and St. Paul gained 16 points, a net gain of 18 points for the latte If the race in the American association were as close as it was a month ago, thio gain would haye. been very significicant, but Louisville is so far ahead that it can afferd to lose q few more points without endangering its “lead- ership. The Kansas sa posal’ in ver, teams wh 1 x t v are dan gerous and that tof team andiéd as sagacic as it mig have’ been. The Milwaukee team seomed to have some ‘merit-in the | spring, but it “hasn't stuck: well; Denver appears to have dug its toes in and taken a spurt for the pennant that was expected ‘in the Western league. If it continues as at present, it should win out easily There has been friction in this league for some time, much of it entering against the president, who has not been popular with some of owners and this trouble has been more to Denver's benefit than any ody else's.
