M'GRAW STILL SCRAPS UMPS SRYS Sport Writer Fails to Find Ground for Mathewson Story of Easy Time for Arbiters. BY FRANK C MENKE. NE WYORK, Aug. 14. Chris Mathewson, the author pitcher, in a lecent article Btating this was an easy year for umpires, remarked that even his boss, John McGraw, was "off" the arbitrators this year, and that John was acting real polite and refined in his attitude toward the umpires. Quite a number of persons will be surprised to hear this. Among those "will be one John McGraw, sometimes called "Muggsy" McGraw and at other times "Hit-from-behind" McGraw. Some of the National League umpires will be surprised, too. To the best of their recollection, they have had to chase John from the pastime just about as often this year as ever before. And that means they've done some considerable chasing. Perhaps .what Chris meant to impart to the multitude was that John doesn't say as much to the umpires as he used to say in the dear old days that are dead. There may be some truth in that. The umpires in late years have come to know John. Just as soon as they declare a Giant out or the other fellow safe, they look toward John. If they notice that he is about to open his mouth they can anticipate what is coming to them. So they Just wave John from the pasture and thus save their feelings from injury by the harsh, cruel words that John can concoct at a moment's notice. Mentions Others. If the article that Chris wrote mere ly mentioned John's name as a party who no longer heckles the umpires, one might have gained the idea that Chris wrote that article just to t?et a stand in with the boss. But Chris didn't stop with lauding John as a reformed umpire-baiter. He mentioned the names of Clarge Griffith, the peppery leader of the Senators and Frank Chance, the Yankee manager. He declared that "like McGraw" they no longer cause trouble for the impires. Griff is "off" the umpires when the police are around. At other times well, read the dispatches from the different towns where the Senators stage their ball games and where Griff stages his little act, "Taming the Umpire." It wasn't so very long ago that Griff showed how thoroughly he has his temper under control by forfeiting a game in Philadelphia because he objected to some of the rulings by an umpire named Chill. And it wasn't so long ago that Griff and almost his entire team got mixed up in a few doings In Detroit. It wasn't so very long ago that Connie Mack, the peaceable Quaker City resident declared that because of Griffith's actions on a ball field and his conduct toward umpires that "Griffith ought to be driven out of baseball." Chance Reforms? As to Frank Chance, Chris may be partially right. Whether Chance has reformed is a question. But it's true that he hasn't been shooed off the field as often as he used to be. Among some of the reasons for this are that he hasn't been on the field as regularly as in the old days and that he's nowleading a way down second division club. The Yanks, when they get their beatings, usually get such decisive ones that there is no question about it and little chance to blame it on the umpire. An umpire can be blamed for many things but you can't blame him because the other fellow soaked out a triple with the bases loaded. You can't blame him when your fielder muffs a fly ball, nor can you blame him when your club fails to hit or fails to field and your pitchers fail to pitch. But of course, you can blame the umpire once in a while. When chance presents itself Chance presents himself and diligently pursues the business of blaming the umpire. Added years haven't taken the sting from his speech, and that's one of the reasons why Chance, in ratio to protests, has been chased just as often this year as he was in the old Cub days.

NATIONAL LEAGUE'S CRACK TEAM-MAKER MANAGER GEORGE STALLINGS. Just what George Stallines would have been able to do with the Yan kees, had he been left in charge for another year, he is now demonstrating by doing the same thing for the Boston Braves. Everyoae knows the story of how the Braves have jumped from the bottom of the league to second place in a little qver a month, and how they are now menacing the Giants in first position. All credit is due to Stallings, who is called the most constructive manager in all baseball. London with six million people has only eighteen murders annually.

COUNTS Oil "VORDf TO TAKE ELMWOODS -
Dick' Kenney Refuses to Worry Over Cincy Team's Malicious Intentions. With the intention of putting a crimp in the winning streak of Dick Kenney's team, the Cincinnati Elmwoods will take the field Sunday after noon. The determination to lengthen said winning streak by one game will char acterize the play of the Richmond team. The outcome is expected to provide a high class exhibition of the national pastime for the fanB. The Elmwoods previous defeat when they came to the city by the score of 5-2 and the number of other Cincinnati teams that have been sent back with the short end of the count, has made the team particularly anxious to defeat the Quakers. With Vordenburg at his best after a week's rest and the rest of the team as it lined up against the Chi-feds last Sunday Dick Kenney is not pessimistic over the outcome. 4The Elmwoods will make two changes in their outfield, but what the changes are or who the men will be is not known by the Richmond management. Deal is expected to battle Vordenburg for mound honors.

Chick Long, who is working in the shops there, will pitch for the railroaders. With Long in the box the Panhandles promise to provide ample entertainment for the local club and the fans, as the Ohio team has the reputation of being a fast bunch of youngsters.

SMITH OF DODGERS RED SMITH. Manager Robinson's first move in his plans to rid the Dodgers of trouble-makers was taken when he sold Red Smith, whom he considers the trouble-making chanipion, to the Boston Braves. All season Smith has been threatening to jump to the Feds and has held frequent confabs with the Federal league magnates. To fill Smith's place Manager Robinson has signed a first class infielder named Schultz from the Rochester club.
