Braves Suc- Thus spoke George Stallings a few days ago of Walter Maranville, the diminutive short fielder, in discussing the merits of his prospective National league pennant winners. ‘Approbation from the Braves' chief is praise, in- deed, and there is none to gainsay the high compliment Stallings paid the player. The Braves’ leader knows a bad player when he sees one. It is this trait that brought him success with every team he has handied and gain- ed for him the reputation of being u Stallings’ Men Swept Through The Triumphal March Started on July CONQUERING MARCH 0- THE BEAVES the Defense of All Teams— 6th—Braves Equal the Mackmen in Long Hits—World Series Will Open Friday, October 3. Only a few weeks since, the base- ball world, just beginning to appreci- ate the surprising strength of the Bos- ton National league team, started to watch the plucky Braves climb in an all conquering march which brought them from the very tail end to their present proud position at the top of the National league ladder. Step by Step, Step by step Stallings and his men, sweeping through the defenses of Reds, Cubs, Cardinals and lastly but by no means beyond the stubborn de- fense of the lordly Giants, have at- talned their rightful berth and are now conceded to be winners beyond the shadow of a doubt of the National league pennant. For weeks the opponents of the Sta'lings outfit as well as the fan who Jjourneyed occasionally to the ball park to see them perform have been loud in their tribute of praise for _the Stallings aggregation, but always these tributes have been tempered by the statement that the “Braves have been getting all the luck.” But a study of figures, a close scru- tiny of the work done by the Boston National league team since it started on its climb to the top may open the eyes of a few of those who can hardly appreciate ust how the locals fought their way into first place. And fur- thermore a c'ose comparison of the showing of both Braves and Athletics for the same period of time may tem- per the enthusiasm of that number of fans who are prone to make the Mack- men heavy favorites in the series shortly to commence. Started July 6. It was practically on July 6 that the Braves started on the triumphal march that has placed them where they are. Since that -time they have played in just 79 contests, winning 60, losing 16 and tieing just three of the battles. This was traveling at the rate of just .789, a clip that few big league teams have ever covered in the same period of time. . Just-about the same time the Braves began this great winning streak the Athletics were on the way to accom- plish a*hew American league record by winning about eight out of every nine games played at Shibe park, but,.col- 'iding finally with the Red Sox, they began to tumble from their lofty perch and ultimately started to lose ground. During the same period they played just 74 games, won 52, lost 20 and tied u pin two more. This gives them an average of but .722 for this part of the season’s work, > In this record it may be seen that the real strensth of the Athletics has been their ability to hit the pili and that, in spite of the ineffectiveness of their pitchers the Mackmen were able to come through with the blows at critical times that offset the handicap of weak twirling. In the 74 games played they were at bat more than 200 times less than Stal'ings’ men, yet they cracked out 20 more base hits and hit for an average of .282, while the Braves’ sluggers ~were pounding the pill for an average of but .255. Yet even this last named figure is a fine team total and is nearly 20 points higher than the figure the team was hitting at in the early part of the season. Famed for Hits. Heretofore the Mackmen have been famed for their long hits, and the extra base swats of a Baker, a Col- lins, a McInnis or a Strunk held to ETAWAH SETS WORLD’S RECORD Grand Gircuit Races Were Fast— builder of pennant winners. \ _In placing the stamp of approval upon Maranville, ‘however, Stallings does mot wish to take credit for hav- ing discovered or developed the little| star. Maranville was heralded as a comer before the Big Chief took charge of_the Boston team. Innumerable experts had painted a bright future for the lad, but the ma- Jority held that he was too small to be a real star. It remained for the manager to show that he could hold his own with the biggest'of players, and by surrounding him with a win- ning aggregation furnish a setting in which the little star shines with greater brilliance. A Bundle of Live Wires. Maranville is a wonderful little bun- dle of live wires unlike any shortsto. in the memory of the present day fans. He has a distinctive method cf flelding a ball that is as gracefui as it is accurate, and his judgment is uner- 5. Nap Lajoie has long stood out as a shining example of all that can be desired in graceful fielding, and while Maranville’s style of going after and catching the ball is different from that of the great Cleveland star, still he resembles him in the nonchalant man- ner in which he retrieves a ball. H» goes after and gathers in the hits without apparent effort or exertion, He dashes to the spot where a fly is about to descend and stands walit- ing for it to drop with his arms hang- ing loosely at his side. He doesn’t set himself as the ball comes whizzing down toward him, but just when it gets on a level with his head he puts his hands together at the waist and gracefully catches it. You may think he is going to drop it, but he appar- ently never does, In golng after ground hits Maran- ville also uses a style all his own. He covers ground with his little short legs as speedily ae any six footer and gathers the ball up in the most un- concerned fashion, then hurls it across to the baseman like a flash that leaves the fans wondering where ho gets the power. MANAGER HERZOG INDEFINITELY SUSPENDED Bent Insulting Telegrams to Executive Officers, Philadelphia, Sept. 26—C, L, Herzos, manager of the Cincinat! Nationals, was indefinitely suspeded tdoay by President. Tener because of an ‘insult- Ing telegram” recetved at the execu- Hve offices of the league In New York from the Cineinatl manager, Herzog was suspenaed for threo days as the resuit of an altercation with en umpire n Boston when it was sald he used unbecoming language. This suspen- sion, it is alleged caused him to send he telegram fo Secretary Heydler, Governor Tener, who was in this sty tonight, stated that Herzog will remain under suspension until he has made a suitable apology, Reds 4, Phillies 3, Philadelphla, Sept, 28 —Cincinnati won its farewell game of the seasen here today 4 to 3. Doth teams gave Driver Geers Presented Loving Cup. Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 28.—From ten heats on this afternoon’s Columbus Grand Circuit racing programme a time average of 2.04 67-100 was ob- tained, for a reduction of the world's record made on the same track last Tuesday, when 'thirteen heats were trootted and paced in an average of 2.05 1-5. Etawah, the Geers trotter, was the sensational performer. In winning the chamber of commerce stake, he made a world’s record three heat trotting mark, regardless of sex or age. The total, 6.13 3-4, is just two seconds below that made by Hamburg Belle at Hartford, in the Charter Qak stake race in 1908. Of the three heats, the third was the fastest. Omar contended even bet- ter than in the privious miles, forcing the four-year-old to take a record of 2.03 1-4, which is now time for trot- ters of this age. Etawah earlier this year did an exhibition mile in 2.03 3-4. His race record was 2.04 1-2, made here last Tuesday in the fastest fourth heat ever trotted in a race. To Driver Geers the Columbus chamber of commerce presented a sil- ver trorhy cup, Our Colonel, second choice to Fay Richmond, won the Board of Trade stake in straight heats. He acquired a new record, 2.03 3-4, in the first heat. In free for all bace betting, Frank Bogash Jr. was barred. He won as he pleased. Ear] Jr. was fa- vored over Walter Cochato for the place and obtained it, after Walter Cox became his driver. Baron Marque was the favorite for the sixth heat of the 2.18 pace, which came over from Saturday. He led un- til by the last turn, when Vera, rush- ing the Murphy three year old to a break came on and won easily, Tigers Swamped Washington. Detroit, Mich.,, Sept. 28.—Detroit crept within a half a game of third place today by defeating Washington, the team just above it in the per- centage column, 11 to 3. Bentley and Ayres were hit hard and often, while Coveleskie was never in danger, Bentley was found for four hits and four runs In the sixth Inning and Ayres who started for the seventh, gave three bases on balls, made a wild throw to first base and was hit for three singles and a double before Har- per replaced him.

The latter have fielded for just .970 as a team and the Mack- men have handled their chances at the rate of .969. The base running record shows the Athletics to be somewhat clever on the base lines, yet just how this will benefit them can only be proved after a thorough test of Hank Gowdy’'s arm. The record gives the Mackmen a total of 121 pilfers, while the Braves ne- gotiated but $6. In sacrifice hitting the locals have exceeded the Philadel- phians, showing with 115 for the Braves to 80 for the Mackmen. Final Arrangements for Series. Final arrangements for the world’s series will be made by the national commission_at Philadeiphia, Wednes- day. Ban Johnson and August Herr- mann will favor Gov. Tener, the Na- tional league head, by a 'trip east- ward for the conference. The meeting of the triumvirate is said to be but a matter of routine formality. Tentative scheduled, it is said on excellent authority, were ar- ranged some time ago, when the big three met to consider the major league club owners’ secret drafts upon minor league players. By Wednesday both the Boston Na- tionals and Philadelphia Americans probably will have officially qualified as entrants for the highest prize of organized baseball. That Will leave the powers little to do besides select- ing two umpires from each league to officiate and assigning officials to su- perintend the distribution of tickets. It has been learned on excellent au- thority that the world’s series will open on the afternoon of Friday, Oe- tober 9. The schedules of the major league do not call for a windup in the east until Wednesday, October 7. But Phi'adelphia and Brooklyn have both got permission to move the final game forward one day. That would permit the Braves to close Tuesday and the Athletics to_finish in a bargain day with New York at Shibe park the same time. The world’s series entrants would then have two days in which to_tune up for the great struggle. Until the usual coin is flipped it will not be known which city is to have the honor of the first game. If the dis- tinction falls to Philadelphia, a some- what unwieldy draft of dates may be necessary. One very close to the plans of the triumvirate declares that every effort wi'l be made to play the Satur- day game in Boston. Fenway park is more commodious than Shibe park and Boston is a far better baseball city than Philadelphia. The commission has decided to give Boston the Sat- urday game regardless of circum- stances. If Boston gains the opening day attraction the teams will play the first two games at the Hub. An al- ternating schedule will not. be at- tempted, as has beed the case in the last three seasons. Philadelphia and Boston are top far apart for comfort- able daily jumps. It is a very significant fact that the office forces of both Boston and Phil- adelphia clubs have been receiving ap- plications for world’s series tickets. e ) e e R S S S B, GAMES SCHEDULED TODAY.

There was some business Monday morning for the city court, which has had a quiet September. Walter King, churged with intoxication and breach of the peace, on account of an affair was fined $10 and costs, making a total of $18.09, and sentenced to serve 30 days in jail. He was given six months to pay and if he does so with in that time his sentence in pail will be sus- pendea. Negligent Husband Before the Court. Frank Gantra, charged with breach of the peace and non-support, was also before the court. He was ordered to pay his wife $5 a week for the next six months. Eighty-Seven at Brooklyn Jail. There were 87 prisoners at the jail in Brooklyn Monday, a drop from the high record of 117 established a few weeks ago. There seems to have been a let up from the invasion of tramps and bums that figured in the great percentage of arrests and the number at the jail is expected to drop from now on’ to about the normal number for the fall months. The majority at the jail are serving short terms. Delegates Will Vote for Mahan. While no definite announcement has come out of New London relative to Congressman Bryan F.
