Washington Agents for Dunlap Hats 1250 Sporting Facts and Fancies BY IOE JACKSON Stories from Detroit to the effect that i move frequently when he was not sig naling and that he supposing it to De the hit and run sign was thus trapped trying for third when Cobb was not going to hit and did not protect him According to Detroit advices Cobb claims that In Tuesdays game with Boston which was lost by a single run Jones made him look bad and cost the team a chance by Ignoring a signal that he gave and he also asserts that the same thing has happened frequent ly Cobb Is a stickler for team play Cobb was out of the game In that city because of differences with Davy Jones of the same team are Interesting If not important and may prove to be both Cobb failed to show on Thursday and it was announced that Illness had kept hirn out though rumors came over the wires and were repeated yesterday that the Georgian had announced his unwillingness to play while Jones was In the game The announced cause was the thing that has brought about arguments GRAY BACK ON5FIEINO USE Pitches Good Game Barring Fact That Wildness Kesnltujof Absence and His Injurys Effect Proves Costly to His Chances One Inning Only Time Nationals Can Hit Sox Pitcher between the same two players time ana th nardest ioser the world So time again Cobb assertion that Davy that ls wnere the controversy stands either falls to catch his signals when he Jf much furtneif lt wlu nurt is at bat or declines to play according to baBebaU greatly In Detroit Cobb Is them If such an argument has been re 3 nas friends Tiewea ana sucn

flWIlS it gets the importance n1 vprv UIO 11 lJzu ata eating trouble among the Tigers at this time would be sufficient to kill such chances as the team still has Its main Interest would come in the fact that Cobb by objecting to Jones necessarily plugs for the placing of Mclntyre as a regular And his first trouble the thing that might have lost him to Detroit But for Jennings diplomacy and success in bringing about harmony in a club that was racked by dissension when he took lt was with this same player Mclntyre They long ago kissed and made up and for two or three seasons have been the best of friends The same has been true of Cobb and Schmidt who had two flst battles in the South in 1907 and are now very close pals As the Detroit team bats Davy Jones Invariably leads off when he ls In the game and Cobb always hits third though up to the middle of last season he batted behind Crawford Instead of before him As Jones gets on about as often as any man in this league and Cobb Is depended on to advance or scoje him the way In which they work together ls a matter of Importance to both not only for the good of the team but Inasmuch as the man at either end of the play Is likely to make the other look foolish with the fans who do not know just wnat is being tried If he fails to go through with lt At one time Jones was caught repeatedly on supposed attempts to steal third Cobb has or had a hit and run signal with Jones and Bush which was easily confounded with another simple move that a ball player might make at any time Jones claimed that Cobb made this bers In Michigan are large Trouble In the team If it exists may extend to the fans and Injure the league as well as the team Itself How luck runs in streaks in baseball has again been illustrated in the case ol Cy Young Up to the time he came to Washington and made his successful effort to win victory No 500 he was a losing pitcher so far as this season is concerned He simply couldnt win that big game possibly the strain under which no worked each time that he went in to try for It having something to do with this His case was exactly like that of a ball club which gets going badly and simply cannot break its losing streak and which once luck breaks its way cannot seem to lose any Luck was ready for Cy that day here for had Reisling not started the ninth with a pass the veteran would have been beaten to a certainty But he won that game and now has a record of four in a row not having lost since And he has been winning against obstacles as he did on Thursday against New Yofk when the score was 4 to 1 against its team as it went to bat In the elgntn inning One of the oddities of the game was exemplified in this inning when Ball who was released by New York largely because he could not hit and who is merely a substitute with Cleveland for the same reason singled after the score had jeen tied Birmingham going to third and Ball to second on a bad throw in Their runs hit home by Young himself eventually decided the result its the way the luck breaks Cy couldnt win for a time Now they cant beat him JENNINGS TELLS TY COBB HE NEEDNT COME AROUND Special to The Washington Poet Chicago Aug 5 Dolly TGfay made his first appearance on the slao since his recent injury to start the faerie frith Chicago and for a tfme threatened to bust the Doc White hoodoo But lt was not to be for Gray Buffering under the double handicap of lengthy absence from the firing line and failure completely to recover from effects of his Injury proved to be wild and the Sox got their base hits mixed with hlssllna In such manneV that they managed tol win the game 5 to 2 White always a stumbling block to the Nationals allowed but five hits all singles but four of these were clus tered in the third round for two runs The way Washington hit hlrh In this spot made lt look like their day but they stopped at the end of this Inning and never got another hit The dentist barring an unusual liberality with his gifts was at his best In the last six Innings So it was Chicagos game after Payne in the fourth Inning tripled with two on and put his team In the lead Very Quiet at the Getaway In the Nationals first Schaefer singled and reached third on infield outs only to perish at the far corner when Zeider ran Into short center for McBrldes lift It was one two three with the Sox in their opener White toyed with his fellow townsmen In thfe second but the plot thickened the moment Gray started the local half by passing Dougherty Tannehills sacrifice nudged Patriclous to second and a wild pitch with Purtell up shoved the Celt to third whence he easily tallied on Purtells single to center Collins hit to the same spot but Purtell was forced at third when Payne dropped a bunt In front of the pan An other wild pitch advanced Collins and Payne but White slipped In the pinch striking out This flash of prosperity seemingly was too much for the doctor for he eased up in the third permitting the enemy to bunch four swats for a total of two runs and the lead Henry had whiffed to start the show when Gray beat out a bounder etween White and Zeider Schaefer hit safely to center and Kllllfer scored Gray with a single to left Two Good Plays Kill Rally Parent put on the high speed in order to drag down Elberfelds screeching liner but McBride poled far and away to left center putting Schaefer across with the second tally Tannehill making a brll llant stab retired Conroy at first One dead in the fourth Tannehill bounced a hot liner at Gray and beat the throw to first Purtell flied to Schae fer and Collins walked Payne tripled to right held counting his mates itie Nationals last a chance In the fifth after White passed Schaefer ihe latter perished In a force play when Killifer grounded to Tannic Elberfeld hoisted to Zeider Killifer stole and McBride walked but Purtells great stop of Conroys roller forcing Killifer en rout to third snuffed out the golden opportunity After working nicely through the fifth Gray hit Tannehill to start tne next round Rurtell sacrificed Collins singled and Payne grounded to Elberfeld who ibluffed Tannehill back to third long enough to retire the hitter A wild pitch with White up enabled Tannehill to scamper home For the third time White fanned ending it Parents daring added the final run for the Sox In their seventh Zeider walked as the starter but was forced when Parent grassed to McBride Freddie then stole second and third tcoring in a walk wien Unglaub Icist Meloans roller down the first sack line Score CHICAGO AB A Zeider 2b 3 i i 5

Sweet Revenge On the Cubs the Final Score Being 10 to 1 Special to The Washington Poet Detroit Mich Aug 5 Tyrus Raymond Cobb according to Charles Comlskey the greatest ballplayer who ever trod the diamond today felt the first severe touch of discipline he has experienced since Manager Jennings took charge of the Tiger jungle He was told curtly when he appeared at the park that the Tigers could get along without him and would play as they did yesterday with no Cobb in the line up Tyrus has had more or less friction with Davy Jones Mclntyre Bush and one or two of the boxmen In Tuesdays game Jones missed a signal for a hit and run play and the affair went wrong The players had some hot words over the matter after the game Cobb did not appear at the park oh Thursday for the final number of the Boston series and it was announced that he was ill Report here is that Cobb had informed some of his friends on the Red Sox that he would not play with the Tigers again until Davy Jones was taken out of the line up He may have hinted this to some Detroit players and friends also At any rate it got to the ears of Manager Hughey and first made him sore and then set him to thinking Today Cobb appeared at the club office and announced that he was ready to play He had thought better of his little bit of hot headedness he explained President Navin referred him to Manager Jennings Cobb did not locate Jennings but went out to the park just be Parent cf i Meloan rf Dougherty 1 Tannehill si Purtell 3b Collins lb fore time for the call of play Trainer Tuthill was the only man in the clubhouse and he trotted out to the field and fold Jennings that Ty was on hand Jennings sent back word to the erring White ball player that he need not bother to put on his uniform as the Tigers could get along without him Mclntyre played cenier Internal dissension It is now claimed explains why a speedy base runner like Bush was dropped to sixth place in the batting order He batted just ahead ot Unglaub the Georgian and necessarily had to co Henry operate with him In base running Friction it is said affected the nerves of the brilliant shortstop He commenced to hit again as soon as he was
