PHILLIES WIN EASY GAME FROM CINCY (National News Association) CINCINNATI, O.. Aug. 1. Philadelphia batted savagely yesterday and easily won the second game of the series from Cincinnati, 9 to 4. Brown began the game for Cincinnati but he proved to be easy to hit and was taken out after the seventh inning. Herbert, a recruit, succeeded Brown. Seaton pitched well up to the eighth Inning, when he was hammered for two singles by the first two batters and gave a base on balls to the next two. One run had scored and the bases were filled when Rixey was called upon to relieve him. Rixey immediately got to work by striking out Sheckard, the first man to face him. Berghammer, the next man to bat, sent out a long fly, on which Clark came in from third. Rixey then wound up the Inning by striking out Blackburn. Pasket, Lobert and Hoblitzel hit well. Score:

SPORTING NOTES

I i

ST. LOUIS, Mo.. Aug. 1. President Schuyler P. Britton, of the Cardinals, is on the warpath and in an endeavor to strengthen that club, today declared he would trade every member of the club except Manager Miller Huggins. It means that Ed Koney, Harry Sallee, Bob Harmon, even Substitute Charley O'Leary and recruits, will be swapped if there is a chance to strengthen the club. Whether any trade will be made is not known, but President Britton announced that negotiations have been opened with the Giants, Reds and other clubs. The tumbel into eighth place for the first time in years is too much for President Britton and Manager Huggins.

Secretary Husson, of the Richmond baseball team, has arranged and completed the schedule for the remainder of the summer, which will not close until probably the second week of October. On August 3, Richmond plays Newcastle at Newcastle and on the following Sunday, August 10, the Indianapolis Reserves will play here at Athletic park. The Lily Brews of Dayton, come here on August 17. The Lily Brews are ancient rivals of the Richmond aggregation and fans will remember well the 16 inning tie score, 1 to 1 game, which the two teams played earlier in the summer. Cambridge is Coming. On August 24, Cambridge City will play here. That team was reported to have disbanded but the rumor was strongly denied by the manager and the date with the Richmond team still stands. If it is announced later that Cambridge City will not keep her engagement. Secretary Husson says he will make efforts to get the West Baden Sprudels here on the 23rd and 24th of August, instead. The announcement of the game for Sunday, August 31, is of much interest to fans. The Indianapolis A. B. C. club will' come here then and on the following Monday (Labor day) Richmond will go to Indianapolis and play the A. B. C.'s there. The Cincinnati Y. M. I.'s come here on September 7, with Vordenberg as pitcher. Vordenberg has an enviable record as a pitcher. On September 17, the fast West Covington team of Cincinnati, will come to Richmond and it is expetced that in that game the locals will have their hands full. Sprudels are Secured. Another game will be played with Cambridge City on September 21, and the following Sunday the Muldoons, reputed to be the fastest of Cincinnati semi-professional teams, will play here. On the 4th and 5th of October, the West Baden Sprudels have been scheduled, and on the 12th or 19th of October the game of games will be played. Secretary Husson is busy negotiating

I in his effort to book a team composed

wnouy or protessional players. So far these players have been booked: Dauss, of Detroit Americans, pitcher; Charles Carr, manager and first baseman of the Kansas City American association team, for first baseman; Woodruff, of the Milwaukee team, and Bush, of Detroit. More complete announcement of Secretary Husson's plans will be made later.

PRETTY SONG OF GIRLISH LOVE

Joe Boehling the young recruit left hander of the Washington pitching staff, who fell down in St. Louis when he attempted to add a twelfth scalp to his long line of victories. The fault was not really Boehling's. however, for he held his opponents to only four hits, while his teammates were foozling the game away behind him by making five costly errors. Boehling may well be proud of his record. Winning his first eleven starts on his initial appearance as a big leaguerer Is quite a feat for a boy who has not yet developed.

REPORT ABOUT GRAYS

Of Cambridge City Is

phatically Denied.

Em-

The report that the Cambridge City

baseball team had disbanded for the remainder of the summer, is indignantly denied by Dr. W. R. Littell, one

of the managers, in a letter to Secretary R. H. Hutton of the Richmond baseball team. Dr. Littell explains that every Indianapolis man on the Cambridge City team has been discharged and that he would never hire another one, who had residence in that city. These discharged men in a spirit of revenge, he alleges, circulated the report that the team would disband. Secretary Husson had two games booked with the Cambridge City team and had started negotiations to get these dates filled with other teams when he received Dr. Littell's letter.

LINCOLN. Neb., Aug. 1. Paul Cobb, brother of Tyrus Cobb, of the Detroit Americans, recently given aun unconditional release by the Lincoln Western League club, has signed with the Dgden, Utah, team, of the Union Association. Cobb Is an outfielder. He will Join the Ogden team at once.
