When Hendricks’ outfielders started to iiti the ball his pitchers cracked. It looks as if there will have to he a few more legs broken in that Brewer outfit before the Tribesmen can win. John McGraw says that being in the second division these days doesn't mean that a team Us out of it. Jack Hendricks is of the same opinion, so It is evident that the chances for an Indian uprising sooner or later are still good. The Tribe will get so many hits and runs some day that it will be Impossible for whoever happens to be pitching to crack hard enough to lose. Catcher Emil Hnhn of the Brewers Is said to have grabbed Umpire Knapp in that quarrel at the plate Wednesday. In these days of inflated pri<*es it is dangerous to shake umpires, especially with Tom Hickey levying the lines. It cost Jack Hendricks the price of a couple .f suits of clothes to play tag with Umps Flnneran.

INDIANS CLOSE WITH BREWERS AND GO SOUTH Tribe Makes Long Jump to K. C. Tonight After Milwaukee Windup. ROGGE IN ASCENSION MILWAUKEE, May 14.—After suffer-' ing two defeats at the hands of the Brewers the Indians today were a desperate gang and they seemed determined to start something this afternoon in an effort to grab one game ont of the series here before packing up tonight. Following the windup skirmish today the Iloosiers take the big jump to Kansas City, where they will eugag>- in a fourgame series with the tailend Blues. A BATTLE OF THE UNDERDOGS. And that promises to be hot stuff at K. €.. with the Blues endeavoring to get out of the cellar and the Indians fighting to keep from falling in. Flaherty or Petty was tip for mound duty today, while Miller or Howard was to be in the box for Jack Egan's gang. The contest yesterday went the same ■way as the game of the day previous—the Brewers won. The score was 5 to 0. Not until the eighth did the scoring start, Ifut in that round Clint Rogge lost his effectiveness and before he recovered his stride the locals had scored five markers. In the meantime Loti North had the Tribesmen eating out of his band, and they failed to get anywhere in the scoring line. Only three hits were obtained off North, two by Kebg and one by Smitn On the other hand, the locals collected twelve blows off Kogge, so there you are In the fatal eighth Mostil opened with a single and Cooney sacrificed. Butier singled, but fast work by Rehg kept Mostil at third. STRATEGY THAT DIDN’T WORK. This left Brewers on third and first and one out. Jack Hendricks ordered Gainer pnssed and Rogge promptly issued four wide ones. It was proper stategy, but It failed, and the beans were spilled. Gearin didn't take kindly to the Tribe act of belittling him and he soaked the hall for a single, which scored bpfh Mostil and Butler. Haustr slammed out a safety, scoring Gainer. Gearin being caught trying to reach third. Mauser slipped up to second on the play at third, and he counted when Gas ton ripped off a hit to center. On the throw in Gaston b.-.it It for econd and a hit by Lutxke scored him with the fifth marker of the inning. North made the third out on a fly to Rehg. That was all the scoring, hut it was enough, herau*'- the Tribesmen were kept tamed by North’s slants. Indians Shooting Blanks Indians. AB. R. IT. O. A. K Rehg.
