In Pittsbirgh the situation s differ- ‘ent, as the in_fronmt, hay y in the ruck. Pittaburgh, however, is quite able to support two teams, so that the outlook may not prove so dark, after all, for the out- laws.

" Rudolph made a game ef- fort to hold the Boston lead, but his support fell down badly.- After a run scored on Bescher’s flelder’s choice Burns got a’gift single, when Maran- ville fell fielding his groundér, John ‘Murray scored the tying run on this play and when Mann slipper flelding Fletcher's hit the batter received a triple and Burns scored the winning run.

If Brooklyn, with Baltimore, can hold up the Bastern end organized baseball will have to do something more than go to the courts with damage sults. The jibes and jests of midwinter are not heard so often these days. Will Change Grounds. At the regular monthly meeting ot the Sterling Athletic asociation held in the club rooms in Oneco Wednes- day evening the members of the base ball portion of the association voted to change the diamond on the ball grounds and make the grounds more level than in past years. They would like to hear from some of the non- professional ‘teams _desiring playing dates. They would like to make ar- rangements with some club of clubs for Decoration day morning or after- noon. Address all correspondence to Manager Wilber E.

Such a condition indicates a remarkable interest in Joe Tinker and his out- laws in Chicago.

Quotations Moved Alternately Up and Down Ending With ‘Small Losses. New York, May 7—The narrow and variable movements of stocks today had little effect on the general level of prices. The market was as dull and flat as during yesterday's session and traders made no attempts to force it out of the groove in which it has traveled for several days. Quotations moved alternately up and down,end- ing with small losses. London cables quoted lower prices for the international shares and re- ported selling in that market by Paris and New York Taking their cue from this quarter, traders made ex- perimental offerings and succeeded in uncovering a few weak spots. Shares which recently have been heavy, such as Northern Pacific. Missouri Pacific and Chesapeake and Ohio, were most susceptible to pressure. Elsewhere lit- tle effect was produced and profession al selling failed to bring out any volume of long stock.

Here is the way the pilots view their chances: The Athletics will stand pat for the 1914 race, says Connie Mack. We will put the same team in the fleld that won the championship last vear. In addition, there are several promising youngsters who are qualified to step into a regular position at any time. Plank and Bender are in good con- dition, while our pitching department should be strengthened by the im- proved form of Bush and Shawky. The Federal league failed to bharm our <lub. » I do not care to make any predic- tions where the Boston Red Sox will finish this year, but can assure you that we will be in the fight all the way from the start, says Manager Carrigan. I consider that we have a very fine ball club. We look to see ‘Tris Speaker have a wonderful sea- son. Do not regard as serious the loss of Pitcher Moseley to the Federal league. It is impossible to give an opinion | of probable position the Browns will | take in the American league race, says Branch Rickey. There are but two veterans on the team—Wallace and after everv game from the moment the flag falls. If our club does not finish one-twe- three, I will be a very much surprised man, says Manager S . The players are all full of confidence and, feeling that they have a real chance, have worked unusually hard. The raid of the Federal league did not do us a grear deal of harm. We are in shape to do without Raridem very nicely, but I am sorry that we lost Jaci* Quinn, My only regret in beginning the season is that we did not have better weather in Florida for training, or that we had to leave there before the real warm weather set in, says Hanik O'Day. As it is, my club is in satis- factory shape, and I see no reason why they should not be an important factor in deciding the pennant. The confidence and high spirits the Dodgers have shown in all their exhi- bition games are the team's asset for a_successful sy Manager Robinson. The are all confident of finishing up near the top, and in my opinion they have the ability to do it. The team, with the possitle exception of Rucker, is in fine condition.

Do not put us down for a pennant thie year, says Joe Birmingham. W don’t_expect it. Our club is a young one, however, full of ambition. The players are fast and should steal many bases. We have good catchers, and the club in general is better fortified than last year, The Washington club has an excel- lent chance of winning the pennant this year, says Clark Grifith. have been close to It on two occasions now, and with the men pulling to- gether and feeling confident of their abllity, there is no reason why w shouldn’t be right In the fight all sea. son. The Washington team Is In fine physical shape. Waliter Johnson is just as good if not better than ever, and [ look for Boehling to héve a great year. The other pitchers are all in fine form. The White Sox of 1914 will be stronger than the team of 1913, and I feel pretty certain that they will fig- ure prominently in the fight, says Man- ager Callahan. o many things can happen to a ball club during the sea- son that I have never felt right claiming a pennant in advance. That would be foolish. T will say, however, that the White Sox will fight every inch of the way. T have =never made it a hadit to| claim pennants in advance, but I will say that the Pirates look very good right. now, says Fred Clarke. The trade with St. Louis appears to have balanced our club nicely. The change, T feel, will do everybody good. Hans ‘Wagner is in better shape for startin, ‘| a season than he has been in seve years, and that means much to a club fighting for a pennant. Becavse of losses to the TFederal Jeague, the Philles have found ft to build up a new team for the 1914 season, says Manager Dooin.
