REDS SPLIT WITH BRAVES; SEVENTH GAME IS LIMIT
Have Won Seven Three
Times, But Eighth is Jinx
Giants Break Even.
CINCINNATI. July 30 For the third
time this season, the Rede piled up aevea straight (tames, only to tall down on the eighth, the seventh victory being the opening game of the eeries with the Braves Tuesday afternoon, and, the fatal eighth, the second half of the same bill. The Reds won the first one 8 to 2, anad the second went to the Braves, 6 to 4. Jlmmle Ring had the Braves shut out in the opening contest until the ninth round, when Stallings men staged a last hope rally and Just lacked one of tying the Reds' count. Ring allowed only three bits until that fatal ninth, and only one man reached second base. Filllngim proved easy picking for the Red swatsmtths, but managed to
keep the second placers under control enough to keep down a runaway score. The fourth inning proved the Reds' big inning. A trio of hits, with a sacrifice and an error gave the Reds a two run lead, and in the fifth Rath scored on Rough's hit. Errors Lose Second. The second game was hard to lose and it was only through a few costly errors that the Braves managed to
take on the contest. The fans. 7,000
of them, were all set for a double vie-1 tory, and a chance to step around thej Giants. Their disappointment was i
somewhat soothed, however, by the fact that Pittsburg, which had so recently handed the Reds a sextette of clean victories, went to the Giants and handed them a Elap on the nose. The Reds started a little rally if.

Fear that Reddinghaus, third baseman on the Richmond baseball team, will be unable to play in next Sunday's game, was expressed by Manager Vigran, Wednesday. Reddinghaus was
j badly spiked in last Sundays contest, !and it is not known whether his in
jury will be sufficiently healed for him to enter Sunday's game or not. With both Fitzgibbons and H. Logan on the Richmond list however, Manager Vigran is not troubled over his infield. Either one of these men will be able to take Reddinghaus' place, if the regular third baseman cannot enter the contest. Changes have been made in the admission for Sunday's game. Grand stand seats will be ten cents cheaper than heretofore. The bleacher seats remain the same. Arrangements have been made to

"Reports which we have received
from a cumber of the county organizations are highly encouraging to the officers of the federation." said W. H.

word that they were anxious to begin the drive for the fulfillment of their respective Quotas In the (200,000 cam

General Secretary Lewis Taylor and President Brown were In Chicago Monday and Tuesday attending an executive session of the Illinois Agriculture association. The organization is composed of Illinois farmers and is similar in its purposes to the Indiana federation. Friendly relations with the view of co-operation on mutual problems which confront the fanners of the two states Is being urged by the officers of both associations.
CAR SHORTAGE NOT FELT BY OHIO MEN
A report was received from the Eikenberry elevators at Camden, O-. Wednesday that, with their large storage capacity for grain, they had thus far received cars enough, despite a threatened car shortage. The Eikenberrys have two elevators at Camden and the third at that olnt is owned by the Farmers' Co-operative association, which has also had all the cars needed. Much wheat is coming in. testing 58 pounds and up. and the Eikenberry men say a number of crops running 25 bushels to the acre have been reported by the farmers, and that the wheat is of good milling quality. It is understood that much good wheat is being delivered at Campbellstown, where sufficient cars have also been obtainable. As related In The Palladium last Friday the elevator at Fountain City was full to the roof and had closed
down for lack of cars on that day. The
situation has not yet been relieved at this point, as but one car has been received in five days, that one being switched in Wednesday.
While it was anticipated that there
might be a car shortage during the
crop movement this is much earlier than such shortage could have been
expected, for a number of towns are reporting insufficient cars to keep grain moving. It Is expected this is
but a temporary condition, and one
which has not yet affected all rail

The Red Sox must not be overlooked in this connection. The Boston pitching staff has been riddled by one thing and another, including the desertion of Carl Mays, and Leonard Is sadly missed at Fenway park this season. The trading of Leonard by the Red Sox, however, was made necessary by his own foibles. He is a temperamental young man who became discontented with his berth in Boston when Bill Csrlgan passed out of baseball. It was Carrigan who took him as a green and very wild pitcher, and Carrigan understood him better than any one else in baseball. Leonard complained after the passing of Carrigan that he could not pitch to the Boston catchers, and there was no one on the club to take him in hand. There have been similar cases in baseball. Al Mamaux never was any good to the Pittsburg club after George Gibson left the Pirates and went to the Giants. Upon joining the Tigers, however. Leonard evidently found he could work
