Washington close on their heels in’ second place today. The Brooklyn Robins found their position at the National peak dangerous, after subduing the Chicago Cubs uprising, for Cin- cinnati, in second place loomed threateningly. Good pitching figured in the push of the new challengers. Wal- ter Johnson scored his fifth con- secutive triumph for Washington at the expense of St. Louis, seven| to four. Three hits constituted the limit of Boston’s batting lib- erties with the curves of Denahué, of Cincinnati. The Reds hrmmered three Braves hurlers for 13 bingles to win nine to one, Hargrave gath- ering a single, double and triple. Brilliant pitching by MeWeeny kept the Robins at the peak. He kept cight hits scattered for a two to nothing victory. Urban Shock- er went the route for the Yankees, One of the outstanding members of the Cornell varsity crew this season is E.

Near the foot of the first divi- sion, rumblings of troubles for the leaders came from the Pirates and the Athleties. Although the White “Sox-pushed Mack’s men to ten in- nings, Simmons timely double gave Philadelphia its ninth straight vic- tory at four to marking the longest winning streak of the year. The Pirates beat the Phillies, 14 to 3, bombarding four pitchers, but the Giants, breaking a long losing’ streak with ‘a two to one victory over the Cardinals, refused to yield the! rung. ec0eve YESTERDAY'S RESULTS American League Washington, 7; St. Louis 4.
