St. Louis, June 14.—Fielder | Jones, manager of the St. Louls Americans, resigned yesterday, his resignation to take effect immediate- ly. James Austin, third baseman, will succeed him temporarily ““There is nothing connected with he business management of the club which inuenced me to quit” Jones said. T feel that I am unequal to | the strain attached to the manage- ment of a major league club when T do not have to depend on baseball for livelihood.” Jones won Mo., considerable success in | manasing the old Chicago White Sox, and though he was usually in the race he won the pennant only once, 1906, when his hitless wonders de- feated the Cubs in the world's series, after the Chicago Nationals had won their pennant by the highest centage in the forty-two year hi of the leazue. In 1908, Jones' cago Americans lost the pennant on the last day of the season to Detroit. After the 1909 scason, he had a salary dispute with President Comis- key of Chicago, and retired from | baseball to take charge of his lum- ber business in the State of Washing- ton. Later he took a mild interest in baseball and became president of the Northwestern lengue. After Morde- cai Brown had failed as manager of the St. Louls Federals, Jones was ob- tained for a big salary in mid-season, 1915. He also got a block of stock in the club.

New Haven, June 14.—Bridgeport's mad rush for the Eastern league pen- nant was temporarily halted on tho Savin Rock grounds yesterday after- noon, when New Haven bagged the first game of a double-header, thereby cutting short the Americans’ wonder- ful winning streak, which had length- ened out to 18 games. Jack Watson, premier pitcher of the local hurling corps, was the chief factor in Bridge- port's first sethack of the season, vield- ing but four hits and keeping them widely scattered. He also essayed to make a genuine cleanup by pitching the second game, but a ane-inninyg lapse, coupled with the failure of his team-mates to hit the offerings of Fer- guson, enabled Bridgeport to win and gain a 50-50 split for the day. Figures in the first game registered New Ha- ven 6, Bridgeport 1: while the night- cap number found the locals sporting the zero end of a 2-to-0 count. A cold northeast wind, which blew over.the city all day, kept the crowd down to normal proportions. The scores: First Game.
