The Hose, although in sixth place, are only two and one-half games back of the Browns, now oc- cupying the first division berth the New Englanders covet, and the gait at which the visitors have been trav- eling recently indicates they are fully ble of giving the Griffs a tough tussle. Jones to Face Nationals. Especially is this true of the en- gagement this afternoon, when Sam Jones is due to officiate on the hill for the visitors. On the last occasion Jones faced the Griffmen, July 6. he Was downed by the superior hurling of George Erickson, 1—0, for the first time In a coon’s age. In view of this effort on the part of the Swede, Eric may be intrusted with the pitching assignment this afternoon, but if not Walter Johnson will get the call. 1t Barney toils today it will be the first time this season that he has started an enzagement with a win- ning percentage in zames pitched. He started slowly and had a hard Tow to hoe in garnering enough victories to offset his losses, but in licking the Browns last Monday he rogistered his tunth win to offset nine defeats and now seeks to fur- nish additional proof of the fact that he is not ready for the scrap heap to which many fans sought to consign him. , until su Grifts Clout in Richmond. A short left-field fence proved con- siderable of a factor in the 12-7 vic- tory the Nationals, minus Rice and Judge, played against the Virginia League team, at Richmond, yester- day. Jim Shaw, who pitched for the Griffmen for probably the last time, got one circuit clout, while Shanks and Miller each parked the ball out- side the inclosure twice. Although he committed one misplay that prov- ed costly, Bob La Motte, at short, proved the fielding star of the after- noon, faultlessly handling a dezen chances and twice making double plays with the assistance of Brower. The Red Sox utilized an open_ date yesterday by stopping off at York, Pa., where they were beaten, 6—1, by a2 team representing the American Chain Company. Pitcher Ehmling of the industrial team allowed the big Jeaguers only three hits, two -of which were scratchy infield affairs. What May Happen in Base Ball Today W. L. Pet.

Gus is a very canny individual. But he does talk to some people, and one man who says,Gus talked to him insists he has reason to believe that Georges has no immediate intention of coming here, if at all. “Wilson says,” averred this friend, “that Carpentier is one of the richest men in France just now and is mak- ing more all the time by virtue of his ownership of the title of light heavy- welght champion. So why should he come back here and risk his title.” . Anyway. whether Carpentier comes or not it looks as though Mrs. Mathews could have her pretty little farm back within a few weeks. The harvest time is past, but the orchard promises a full crop of rosy apples, and the money paid by the French fighter for rent removes the necessity for worry as to crops. Not this year, at least.

Smith received credit for both victories and Scott with both defeats. In_marring the pennant chances of the Braves, the Phillies won 10 to 5 and 4 to 0.
