But this sudden rush of games is merely pre- paratory to the siege that is to fol- low in Boston, There four more games are to be played in two days between the contenders, which really brings the struggle down to a ques- tion of endurance, It was to relleve this excessive drain on the pitching staff that Mc- Graw bought Marty O'Toole, the one time $22,500 wonder—price now cut to $1,500—from Pittsburgh. The Giant manager has little hope of making O'Toole a regular member of the staff, but expects him to be of service as a fill-in, Out in Pittsburgh they be- eve that O'Toole is through as a pitcher, Othewise Fred Clarke would not have asked waivers on him, In other cities the manager must have thought likewise or they would not have waived, The only clubs who held back were the Reds and the Giants, and, as a choice between the two, he was allowed to join New York. McGraw believes there is a lot of n | 600d baseball left tn O'Toole, and will exert himself to bring it out, “We can make a pitcher out of that fellow as sure the world,” said Chief Meyeré last night, “because he knows how to work when there are runners on the bases. The coming of that boy may help us win the pen- nant.” Since their return from the West the Giants have guined much of their old spirit, and they appear to be absolutely confident of winning.

Outclasses Him in Every De- partment of Game. Newport, Sept. 2. HI8 haa been a year of sur- prises in the sporting world, but the biggest surprise of ali came in the finals of the national tennis championship here when R. Norris Willlams 24, the young Har- vard player, defeated Maurice Mc- Loughlin, the world’s champion, In three straight set-. Everybody picked McLoughlin to win, and had you mentioned the possibility of Williams winning in straight sets you would have been looked upon as an idiot, As the youngster who fought so vainly in the Davis Cup matedes out- played at every turn the master of Norman E. Brookes and Anthony F. Wilding, the crowd about the stretch of turf in the Casino enclosure went wild with excitement, It was grip- ping tennis. The young Philadelphian outeerved, outsmashed and out- speeded the famous “California Comet,” the hero of the Davis Cup matches and the pet of Wimbledon. ‘The mighty McLoughlin fought hard, ife lifted his game to superb heights, Williams always soared above him, Williams was relentless in his placing, He constantly outgeneralled the Californian, shot the ball past him and at varying pace he bent the hitherto invincible McLoughlin at hia own game. Incidentally Williams did something far more important than the winning of the championship. He shattered the prospects of the Californian’s be- ing in o position to insist that the All Comers’ tournament be decided on courts of the Pacific coast next year. The highest honors of the courts are now held by an Eastern player, and so the prestige which the Californian had hoped and planned for ts lost, WILLIAMS 8 TO 1 IN BETTING, WITH NO TAKERS. So unexpected was the denouement of the great match, the coup that Will- jams brought off, that during the morning & to 1 was offered against Williams's chances, without any takers. McLoughlin's victory was re. garded as a foregone conclusion. The outcome of the great tourna- ment was in no sense a fluke. Neither was McLoughlin off his game, except to the extent that Williams put him off and so took advantage of an un- steadiness which the famous Califo>- nian could not help. Williams playea super-tennis, His service, a wonder- ful weapn with its sting und baffling breaks to the right and left hand, al- ways caused the playing-through champion trouble, McLoughlin was forced to go wide of the court to make his returns, and with a wide stretch of turf left un- guarded through which to send the ball, the Philadelphian had little or no aimeuity in Piling up his tally in the of pluced passing shots.

Undor tne rapid and sure fire of| his opponent McLoughlin never| seemed to steady his game. Willi always had him on the run. In every set it was Williams who wa leader. He led at 4—0 in the fi 3—0 and at 4-3 and 5—4 on game: In the second and at 2-1 and 3—2 In the third, Williams was always in front. It wa: McLoughlin who was always fighting furiously to bring up the games from the loser’s end of the score. So flerce was the pace as Williams fought off his famous opponent in the flashing raliles by his astounding | cross-fire shots and his finely man- aged drives that in the fourteenth game of the third set the champlon- to-be was twice within a stroke of the set, match and title, and still failed to clinch his honors in that game. McLoughlin, a fox for tactics, |“babled” the ball to him and in his anxiety to win Williams drove far be- yond the baseline, The Californian made a plucky and gallant battle.
