PilleU had a .nice collection of .lant s, Jid a fast one that went into the bakstop's mit with a crack, but he dld't know where to put them, and h wlldness was responsible for the dteat. Pillett also showed signs of n'ousness in the opening rounds, evepefore a mere handful of fans. Only Three Hits Made, pof of the stuff on his slants was ehn in yesterday's game by the fact tij. only three safe hits were registerftoff the big right-hander's delivery. jo of these were of the scratch vaetv. one taking a bad bound over -eUy's head and the other a fly, puling Hway from Rapp as the latter had to fize Into old Sol to mitt it Her- . rati is a pitcher, but he needs work. Bt with three hits, the Distillers wef able to gather into the fold, four ' gofl runs, while the Quakers got out thfe and hammered the ball for five, i brought home one measly marker. Quakers All Shot. eSuaker line-up was all shot to pices in the game, Evers was out ' nrsiC a sick stomach, Gygli was in tjp gne, but was handicapped by a carrnorse ln bis left knee, Kreg was ! tb line-up for the first time in ulnvj three months, Donica was at BPCtf base, an unaccustomed positlojjind Coveleskie was out In the gaf n after several days layoff from tjy position, during which time he taied first base. ob Kreg showed signs of his inacfty throughout the game, although had a world of pep, and showed rfect physical condition. His bigjest weakness was in locating his throws across the diamond, wildness causing four stolen bases. Luke Hauser, the iron man of the Quakers was given a much needed rest, however, and Bob's work behind the plate was welcomed by the fans who realized that Luke will be in much better condition to send the Quakers around the Chiefs and out of the hole.

Cubs Checks Late; Players Are Peeved CHICAGO, Aug. 2. Cub players received checks yesterday calling for twice the usual amount of their fortnightly salaries, as the club was on the road July 15, last pay day, and they agreed to wait from July 26, when they returned from their Eastern trip, and have the August 1 salaries included in the single check. President Weeghman was highly angered over articles in morning papers in which the impression was given that the team, had been holding back the players pay. "The false report regarding withholding of the checks probably was started by a disgruntled p'ayers," explained Weeghman, "and we are making an investigation to find the guilty party. It is customary for players to wait for their money until they return from a trip and in this case, as there was only a couple of days between their reeturn and the time for the issuance of the August 1 checks, the men agreed to wait until today and draw double money. Assistant Secretary Craighead, who makes out the checks, accompanied the team on the Eastern trip. Consequently he had to wait until he came back to make out the checks. "There is no truth in the story that the cubs are losing money. It is that the team is not making a whole lot, but up to date we are one the right side of the ledger. We have had good
road trips and have been doing well at home, so how any one can figure that we are losing money is a mystery to me." One player is said to have demanded hte salary today before donning a uniform, but he cooled down when told that the checks would be ready at 3 o'clock. The big kick waB that the salary vouchers have been late every pay day this season and officials were asking too much when they left out the July 15th pay day altogether. A million and a quarter horses and mules have been exported for war purposes since the fall of 1914. W1B.

There were no prospects of early relief in tho weather forecast which was "Fair and continued warm,' and the hospitals prepared for another busy day. Early in the day an Increase of prostrations over the night was perceptible. It is believed, however, that the crest of the wave has been passed, with a high temperature of S8 yesterday which claimed a total of 115 Uvea' and hundreds of . prostrations. Although the hot weather Is expected to continue until Saturday, the weather, man gave the city a ray of hope In predictions that Indicated at least a standstill of the mercury if not a gradual drop. At dawn today, trains coming Into the city from the beaches and outlying parks began to unload the crowds that sought relief In the open last night. Even-at these places sleep was difficult and further shutting down of factories and business places was In prospect, to give the many workers opportunities to find what rest they could at home. Crowds, mostly women -end-children started away from the city early In the day armed with lunch baskets and bahing suits. Others took advantage of excursions on the pleasure and fishing boats, while thousands flocked to the comparatively cool retreats in the park. STRACHAN IS TIPPED '
