who blew completely after taking three straight, the final of the aeries winding up with a top-heavy score of 10 to 4. The Cubs outhit their old rivals, but that was all, and the Giants were practically presented with the tussle on the visitors' errors and Ineffective pitching. Chance nominated Jim Lavender and his Montezuma spitball to tame the loaders and make It four straight for the westerners, but the young recruit was not equal to the task. He lasted two innings, and although hit safely only- three times, his wlldness and the Cubs' wabbly support gave the Giants a five-run lead that was never overcome. With the dismissal of Lavender Charley Smith, the ex-American leaguer, was sent to the hill, and although the tall veteran was touched for only four swats, the Giants were able to add five more runs to their total. Mathewson was never In danger after the fourth inning. The comfortable lead that his mates sawed off right at the start gave the old-timer plenty of room on which to work, and although

the Cubs nicked him for nine drives, he was in trouble only In two innings.

One of these was in the third, when a

DANNY GREEN, SOX HEJIO, FAILING Friends and admirers of Danny Green, for years an Idol at the west and south side ball parks, will be grieved to learn that he Is confined In the Cook county infirmary at Oak Forest and that hope of his getting better has been given up. Tuberculosis is Danny's complaint. He has been ill for two years, but it was not until a month ago' that he gave up and yield

ed to his friends' pleading that he go

to & hospital.

While the Cubs were playing at

home in May, Danny frequently attended the games, but he was so changed that few recognised him. One day he sought out Charley Williams,

who had known him for years, and It was several minutes before the Cub treasurer knew who he was. Williams was shocked by Danny's appearance, but the latter talked about himself cheerfully and led Charley to believe that he was improving In health. Green first won a place In the hearts of Chlcagoans by his work as an outfielder on the west side team when

Bill Lange, Dahlen, Callahan and Griffith were members of the club. He was fast on his feet and a dangerous hitter. When the baseball war started, Danny jumped from the west to the south side and tools a regular Job In the White Sox outfleld. Later he went to Milwaukee and when his league days were over played on semipro teams here. Danny was one of the most popular men on the Chicago National . league team when he was at his best. Friends made by him then have known that he was in bad health, but few were aware that his illness was considered fatal.

LEACH WAS TRADED TO "" A BREAK WORD Philadelphia, Pa., July 31. Announcement was. made here today by a member of the Pittsburg baseball team that Tommy Leach was traded to Chicago to let President Dreyfus of the Pirates out of an embarrassing, position. Some time ago, according to the story, Dreyfus promised Leach that he would succeed to. the management of the team upon the retirement of Fred Clarke. The latter has quietly announced his Intention of retiring at the end of the present season. , Ifreyf us also promised the management of the team to Wagner, who will succeed Clarke next year. With the management promised to two players, Dreyfus Is said to have given strict

orders to Clarke to get rid of Leach. By -doing this Leach, not being with the team, cannot hope to hold Dreyfus to his agreement. This Is the secret of the Cub-Pirate trade. In which the Pirates crawled out with a small slice of the pie.

"CAL" BACK IN LINE. LEADS SOX VICTORY

Boston's pennant-seeking Red Sox took a spill yesterday In their mad dash down championship alyley. That the "back bay" terrors failed to score a clean sweep is due ctilefly to the presence of Manager Callahan on the Job. Having served his "bit" of three days for umpire-nagging "Cal" was voted a clean bill and the south side pilot proceeded to make up for lost time by hitting 1,000, his swatting in times of need helping big Kd Walsh to victory, 6 to 5. Three singles and a tljely sacrifice fly in four times up was Callahan's record against the curving choices of Manager Stahl. The slab artists in the order of their appearance consisted of Charley Hall, who threw up the sponge In the fourth after yielding five runs, the outgrowth of six clean knocks, an error and four passes; Larry Pape, who once was styled the White Sox Jinx, but he failed, and followed Hall to the knoll after performing two innings and allowing .three blows, good for our sixth tally. O. V. O. Bedlent horned in as third dinger and pased the locals with a lone swat In the last two rounds. Pitching at top speed and display-

Flower and headed for Chicago. The black champion of Canada will arrive here today and will be measured. She will then be placed In the water. The hope of Chicago and the United States the Michicago was given another tryout yesterday by Skipper McClurg and a comparatively new crew. Coyle of the Mavourneen crew and Roy Marcal, skipper of the Illinois, together with one of the star canvas handlers of ' the lakes, were the new members of the - quartet under McClurg. The Michicago was put under every kind of going. Commodore Norman H. Gooderham of the Royal ' Canadian Yacht club of Toronto, the man who owns and will sail the Patricia, will be here with his crew today or tomorrow at the latest.
