Philad=iphia, July 21.—Philadelphia san its string of consecutive victories ©p to seven by winning both gameg from Cleveland today, the first 2 to 1 In eleven innings and the second 7 to 6. in the opener, Mitcheil pitched won- derful ball for elght innings, during which he struck out twelve men, but in the ninth the home team tled the | score on Coliins’ single and steal of second, an out and a wild pitch. In ‘he eleventl after being held down to three hits, Philadelphia doubled its total of safeties and won on singles by Murphy, who was forced by Oldring and Baker and Mcinnis. During this inning Mitchell got his thirteenth strikeout victim. The mecond contest was a slugging match which Phila- delphia captured by piling up six hits and a sacrifice fly off Steen and Ha- german in the fifth inning.

P-'-l Fraternily weon a victory rc and a threatened strike of i s American league. players, members of the fraternity, was avert ed when the case of Player Clarence O. Kraft was settleq to the satisfac tion of the players' organization and in, accordance with its demand: ‘The incident is congidered closed by both the big league magnates and the play- ers. Ebbets to the Rescue. It was Charles H. Ebbets, president of the Brookiyn National league club, who stepped into the breach and ‘brought about peace when it appear- ed that organized baseball was about to Dbe disrupted by a struggie hetween club owners and players. Ebbets an- nmounced the settiement of the case at & meeting of the American league rep- resentatives who were in secret ses- sion preparing eithef to prevent the strike or retaliate upon the fraternity for its strike order, which was to have gone into effect tomorrw morning. | Ebbets, who is also a stockholder in the Newark International league club, announced that the Newark club offi- | clals had paid the Nashville ‘club of the Southern association $2,500 in set- tlement of Nashville's claims on Kraft and that Kraft would play with New- !ark at Providence in tomorrow’s game. In addition, the Newark club agreed-| to observe all the stipulations of Kraft's_contract as originally in force before he was ordered to go to Nash- ville by the national commission, be- sides paying him five weeks back sal- | ary for the period he has been under suspension for not reporting to the Nashville club. No Ten Days’ Notice or Release Clause n Qofl(f’lct. Kraft's contract with Newark calls for a salary of $450 per month, and both the ten days’ tice -of release clause and the disability clause were stricken out before the document was signed. The Nashville club received $1,500 for its release of claims on | Kraft and $1,000 in addition as a bonus for accepting the Newark club’s terms, Under the Newark contract Kraft re- ceived $150 more per month than he would as a Nashville player, which was the crucial point in the contro- versy, the fraternity contending that the played could not be shunted from a class AA league to a closs A organ- ization with a subsequent reduction in salary in the manner prescribed by the | national commission, Ebbets denied that any pressure had been brought to bear upon him or the officers of the Newark club in making the deal which cleared away the base- ball war clouds. He said that as a stockholder in both the Brooklyn and Newark clubs, he had taken the initia- tive in the matter without being In- fluenced by either the Naflonal or American league masgnates. This statement was borne out. so far as the American le officials were concerned, by the fact that the secret | meeting broke up within a short time | after Ebbets made his announcement and those present appeared to be eager to learn the details of the set- tlement. Something Behind This Revolt. August Herrmann, chairman of ‘the National Baseball Commission, follow- tlement night: *There is more behind this than is apparent now. It is very strange that Fultz should take occasion to threat- en a strike at this time. He has had many opportunities to. construe the meaning of section nine, which re- lates to the drafting of class A play- ers before this and has always held to my interpretation of it. Now that another league has started he has an- other interpretation of the clause. “Fultz’s methods are those of .a walking delegate. Some time ago I had & misunderstanding with Fultz re- garding the gualification of players Wwho went to the Federal league. I conferred with him and other major league men in a New York hotel. He told me thenm, in the presence of a dozen witnesses, that a player who became a member of a league other than a protected league was automat- ically suspended from the players’ fra- ternity. I asked him what he meant by a ‘protected league’ and he said any league protected by organized baseball, “The next day after the result of | this conference became pub'ic, my ver- sion was denied in thc papers and I went to see him again. When:I asked him about the printed statements that I had misquoted him he told me he had said nothing and that my con- struction of the situation was correct. I was not satisfied with this, however, and when I returned home I wrote him a letter going over the points carefully and asking a reply in writ- ing. This I received and have on file and the letter says in substance that my version is- correct Thinks Players Would Not Strike. John J. McGraw, manager of the New York National league club, while discussing the proposed strike late to- day said: would rather have seen the mat- ter put through as planned just to see if the players would go on a strike. I belleve Kraft's claim was all rizht, but the news of the settiement of the case is not especially pleasing, because I preferred to see what the players would really do. I would like to see a2 precedent, so we would have an idea of how the players stand in this mat- ter. My personal opinion is that the plavers woyld not have struck. 1 think the bulk of our men would have re- ‘mained loyal and that throughout the league there would not be more than ten or fifteen per cent. of the plavers who would strike. When the ball park is closed there is no income for the players—and the players do not relish that condition very much.” in the Krafl case. sai Two Games for All Stars. The All Stars have scheduled a game with Baltic Saturday and Willimantic Independents Sunday. The battery for Saturday’s game is undecided, = but | Sunday it _will be Brazil and Walsh. | Manager Hughes says the Williman- tic Independents will have to go some | to beat his team and that they will have to use their best lineup.

Before midday the market swung around on rumors of an early an- mnouncement of the eastern freight de- cleion and a hurried retreat of the un- short fnterest followed. Gains of oBe to two points were recorded in less than an hours time, with the ox- tensive trading in United States Steel which was attended by circumstantial reports that the second quarterly statement of earnings, to be issued next week, would vastly exceed the first quarter's exhibit.
