POLST) NEWS OF ALL BRANCHES OF SPORT il Pe ~ . . wd The Trade for Maisel, the Battimore Phenom, Is the Most Im- portant Move That Has Been Made by Highlanders Since They First Broke Into New York Ten Years Ago. P By Bozeman Bulger. Tr Frank, Chance continues to strike such telling blows in his efforts at re- 3 building the Highlanders will ha brand new team by the end of next week. The chances are that whi team leaves on the next long trip, beginning Wednesday, infield will be made up of Williems, Knight, Peckin- Paugh and Maisel, with Rollie Zelder waiting for a chance to horn in. When It 1s realized that not one of these men were with the Yanks at the beginning of the season the untiring efforts of Chance can better be appreciated. REACHING HIGH WATER MARK IN PURCHASE PRICE. The trade for M Baltimore phenom, is by far the most important move that has beenem: by the Highlanders since they first broke into New York ten years ago, Maisel has created a bigger sensation than Chappelle, the man for whom the White Sox paid $18,000, Nearly every big league club in the country has made offers to Jack Dunn immediate delivery of this young- The one surprising thing about the deal is the apparent ease with which York got waivers on Midkiff and Dantels, MAISEL 18 WELL WORTH THE MONEY, But, returning to Malsel, scores of the last ten eames he has layed in show # that he has hit in the neighborhood of .400 and that his fielding has been equally Phenomenal. Last season he was just beginning to get his eye and batted little betten than .270, According to the trade, Maisel is to report in New York this morning and will play: this afternoon, BUT DON'T FORGET OUR TEXAS CONTINGENT. The Texas combination, made up of Williams and Cook, 4id much in the second performance to dispel y idea that their opening splurge was of the morning glory variety. Yesterdav Williams nailed the ball for three clean hits, while Cook got one. It was the reverse of the previous day. So fer they are both batting over .G00. FIRST TIME SINCE CIVIL WAR. , It ts rather unusual in big ledpue dasedall to see two brothers lined up against each other on the same battlefield, but for two more days we'll have exactly such a situation at the Polo Grounds. Harry Williams, our new firet baseman, and Gus Willkame, outfelder for the Browns, are brothers, and the family resemblance ie marked. The appearance of Gus, by the way, has brought evidence that the reports a2 to Harry's age are erroneous, Instead of being thirty+two; as was rumored among the players, Harry Williams is to be twenty-four. Whatever may be his age, he Playing baseball like a youngster in his prime, and that is @ufficient s0 far as Frank Chance is concerned, MURRAY CAN LEAVE HI8 FIELD IN GOOD HAND8 NOW. The firat time there is a chance for a runner to be thrown out at the plate from right fleld the fans are in for @ little treat. This young man Cook has @ whip hung to his shoulder that is @ wonder, Just for practice yesterday he shot one on a line to Gossett at the plate which made the old-timers open their eyes. In the Texas League Cook easily led in assists from the outfied. The year before, without playing all the games, he threw out twenty-three men at the plate. ‘ NOT DELINQUENT IN ROOTING, ANYWAY. The most interested spectators as well as the most disappointed fans over ithe Yanks’ defeat was a party of 600 boys from the Juvenile Asylum for De- _Mnquents in Westchester County, These kids, who are being taught the advan- vtage of living right, were the guests of Frank Farrell and brought with them & brass band that helped wonderfully in making the ¢ans forget that trailing we got in the eighth inning. * nce cannot well afford to keep him out of the game, NOT THAT WE ARE SUPERSTITIOUS. Looks as if something besides golf has run into the Giants. When they make three hits in a row, with none out, and still fall to score, that is the office for McGraw to get a detective on the trail of the Jinx, Then, in the next inning, they led off with two safe cracks and couldn't get a runner in, Jing, After two were out in the ninth and the Giants apparently nad inks, i» bad enough to have to carry around the circuit. Still, ¢here’s some isfaction in knowing it will go well in the minors, We are going to mise that BE BRAVE, AL, AND START OVER. ‘And it now becomes our duty: to chronicle the passing of the last record hope. ‘After going eight games, Al Demaree had his little pitching streak splintered by. e must expect. played im games| Satisfactory to the talent.

DLemaree didn't get stopped until the Reds did it yesterday. Walter Johnson has now won eleven straight and this ties the season's record, made by Joe Boehling, a young team-mate of his. Johnson is taking things easy and he promises to make @ good stab at Marquard’s record.
