The article in question was written by I. E. Sanborn, a veteran critic. His high standing in *he fraternity is indicated by the fact that e holds the pusition of president of the Base Ball Writers' Association. This fact lends a maximum of weight to ythe influence on fans of his unjustifiable charges against Griffith, and the article is further to be regretted because the integrity of the game of base ball itself is impugned. - This is what Sanborn wrote: 2 Text of Criticism. “Once more the lack of sportsman- ship in proicssional base ball has beer demonstrated to the satisfaction of the public and to the edification o fans devoted to other sports, who Pet. 1.000 Lo 500 TOMORROW'S GAME Linworth vs, Stanton-Templar, at Washing- ton burracks, foot,of 41 street southwest. popu- YESTERDAY'S RESULT. arned & Grace, 4; Bwmerald, 1 (six innings).

Of the six Chicago players whose ab- sence was necessitated by the court summons, Collins really was the only regular whose absence would weaken the team, for Schalk does not catch all the games, neither Wilkinson nor McClellan is a ‘“regular” and both; Faber and Kerr already had Duched— Faber on Tuesday and Kerr on Wed- nesday, the day previous—and would not ordinarily be called on again for service in that serles.

An even break will help and losing more than 50 per cent will take the fight down to the first frost. Duel in the American. In the American League no team has such a favorable outlook as Pitts- burgh has in the National. It has been many a year since there has been such unusual variety in leading a major circuit as is taking place at the present time the Amer!u: The Pirates have made a show of Chicago this year, winning sixteen against any one team. Their feeble effort has been against New York, to which they have lost nine out of fourteen games. well against New York as they have played against the other six clubs their lead over the Giants would be not less than ten games, which would quite assure them the National League pennant. | The Pirates are five full games in Winning more than 50 per cent of |purgh can be defeated for seven or That is their greatest achievement Had they played as tories at the expense of the other the duel between them may be indeter- minate. It certainly is a novel sen- sation in the major league race for the leadership to shift five times the lead over New York, nearly a week of time, and its a whopping handicap to overcome, unless Pitts- eight games in succession.

Even a near champion wants $15.000 to $25,000 for his brief services, while a champion is never contented unless he is on a percent- age. The New York boxing commission is now studying this matter.

But the matter might be reached in another way; that is, a limit might ‘Wilson, it was learned, will receive a $25,000 guarantee or an option upon 25 per cent of the receipts.
