Staff Correspondent) New York, July 11—Surviving the first crucial series of the season, the Pittsburgh Pirates are still in first place in the National league pennant race. The New York Giants dropped them in two of the three games that were not stopped by rain but the weather breaks were in favor of the Giants who were in desperate straits for pitchers. It is quite apparent now. with half the season behind, that the Pirates are in the race to stay and that they will win the pennant if the Giants do not repeat. The Pirates have the best all around hitting team in the major leagues, they are the fastest club in baseball, and their pitching is better than the Giants. The only thing that critics are now holding against the club is its extreme youth. Moore. C’uyler, Wright and Yde are the only sophomores in the big leagues and Charley Grantham, who; is doing most of the work at first j base, cannot be classed as a veteran, j The Giants are all veterans and they j are used to fighting.

June 30.—The Mining Association, representing coal mine owners, gave formal notice today of intention to terminate the agreement with the Miners’ Federation July 31, intimating the basis of a proposal for a new agreement had been considered. Terms of the proposal are unannounced, but undoubtedly Include an increase in hours and a reduction of wages, which it is virtually certain the miners will refuse. Hence, unless negotiations in the meantime reach a compromise there will be a serious mining crisis at the end of July. Scranton. Pa., June 30. — John L. Lewis, International President of the United Mine Workers at the Anthracite Tridistrict Convention here today declared the miners would accept no wage reduction in renewal of the wage contract expiring August 31. Mr. Lewis indicated that one of the principal demands of the union would be for adoption of the check-off. He warned that there were only tons of domestic hard coal available in case of a suspension September 1. and asserted that operators planned to spend $500,000 in a publicity campaign to defeat the miners and that the public eventually would pay that bill.
