Burns, the outfielder sensation of the 1913 season, and others almost -as well known. Out there, guided by the craftiest basebqll manager of them all.

Connie Mack, will be Eddie Collins. the keystone king, with the three other members of the hundred thong-and dollar infield, Stuffy" Melnnis, Jack BaiTy, and Good Night Baker, of home run fame. There will be Big Chief Bender, the veteran Eddie Plank, Oldring, and some of the newer -stars, including Schang, the catching find of the Eddie Murphy, Strunk and others who promise to be to baseball very soon what Oldring, Dannie Morphy, Jack Lapp and some others have been to baseball of the past. If the Giants and Athletics meet again this year, as they doubtless -the worlds series should be more hotly contested than it- was when they responded to the bugle in 1911. Then, the Athletics were the favarites.

Their infield was superior to that of the Giants, or was so considered, their outfield nas just as good, and so was their pitching staff. But this year, while their infield is still the greatest baseball baa ever known, according to the almost unanimous verdict of baseball writers, their pitching staff is not so dependable. Naturally, Chief Bender and Eddie Plank are showing the effects of time, and without the assistance of Jack Coombs, who has been ont all season because of illness, can not be rated the equal of McGraws staff, which includes Matheuson. who seems to be as good as ever; Marquard, Tesreau, and the new star, Demaree. The superiority of the Giants pitching staff should offset the greater defensive and offensive play of the Athletic infield, and with the outfields well matched, should make the series about as near an even-money shake-down as has even been the case since the winners in the two major leagues commenced to "tie up for worlds championship honors.

The Journal and Tribune's offer is an opportunity for a couple of the many ardent fans in East Tennessee to see these great games, which some baseball lovers will journey clear across the con- tinent to see. Read the printed else- where, and see what tbe offer is. All-American Field Trials. Towner, N. Sept.

From all indications, and according to all the dope. the series will again this year be -between the New York Giants in the National league, and Cornelius McGilIicuddya "White Elephants, of the junior major League.

Of course the dope of the baseball experts is liable to be spilled most any old time, bnt unless it goes sadly awry, these teams will 'win the rags in their respective leagues, and the worlds series card wiH be a duplicate of that of 1911. The Giants and Athletics Jougbt it out then, and all followers of baseball know the story of that series, probably the greatest ever fought for a worlds title, and a few thousand shekels per player on the side. What J. Franklin Baker and his war bludgeon did to Rube" Marquard and the great and only Christy is known to every gamin. The Giants and Athletics now have a commanding lead, and unless they should hit a terrible slump, will be ont in front when the bell taps on the season, and the East Tennessee fans who win in The Journal and Tribunes contest will have the privilege of seeing, the contenders face each other at Sh-ibe park In Philadelphia, and at the great Brush stadium, in New York.

In these games, according to the outlook from this angle, some of the greatest players that ever made baseball history, will be seen on the diamond. There is Mathewson, Marquard, Teareau and Deni a ree, of McGraws pitching staff; heals won from the Knox Knit at Fountain City, ten to one. and the N. aggregation defeated the Central Y. M.

Fountain City shoving three men acros the plate In the first Inning, witb a couple of bits and a like number of errora.

After tbe first inning, tbe Fort Sanders team settled down and put op a nice game, and only one more run was gathered off Draper, who atrurk ont ten men and gave up onlv fonr hits Barrel pitched winning baH In every inning except tbe third, when the Fort Bandera player connected three runs. The fielding of Curtis and Patton and tbe hit-tins Wright featured for Fountain City, while Bollnger and Edlngton starred for Fort Sanders passing Watson, filling the bases. C3unk shot a wicked single over second base, and Knox and Wynn scored, Watson taking third. The pitcher then uncorked a wild pitch, and Watson also reached borne in safety. McElveen and Hummel ended tb inning by going out on file to tb outfield.

It looked as though the ejthteissts were going to get a few extra in lungs, for Lawreuee and Lowry were mowing the hatters down with most disconcerting regularity.

Louis, Sept 8. President Hedges of the local American league club, tonight announced that Georg Btovali had been deposed as manager of th team and given a vacation for the remainder of the season. Jimmy Austin, the local third baseman, has been placed In charge until Hedges selects Stovalls successor. Hedges said that in all probability Branch Rickey, former American league catcher and scout, would be manager in 19X4.

Rickey demands a share In the stock of the club and the president said he could not promise this unless the board of directors sanctions such a proposition. Trouble has been brewing, between the manager and President Hedges for a month or more. Hedges blaming Stovall for his failure te get the team higher than seventh place. After his dismissal Stovall said. "I received notice of my dismissal after winning a shut-out game from Chicago.

Hdges said my system A managing the team didnt suit him. "I'd like to get my unconditional release at the end of the season, I think Ivs earned it. The SL Louis club waa a tail-end outfit when I aucceeded Wallace aa manager. I have sold over 120,000 worth of players for Hedges. I have been handicapped all season with a bad hand doctors have advised me to Have a operation performed next winter.

I don't even know whether I can play ball next year. That's why I would like to get my unconditional release." Chief Event Was the Winning of the 2:14 Face by The Student. From the Sonder Class Races at Marblehead American Boat Ellen Won Saturday. Chicago. Sept.

Marblehead, Sept. 6. With the victory of the American yacht Ellen in another light weather contest, the Germans retired finally today from the fifth international sonder yacht series after four of the most unsatisfactory taces ever held by representatives of the two countries. Three American boats Ellen, Cima and Sprig will race again Monday.

Usually an international sonder yacht race is sailed in something less than two hours but the four completed races consumed from 3 to 4 hours each, while yesterday at the expiration of the 5-hour limit the drifting contest was stopped. Except for a few minutes after the start when the Angela IV clung close to the Sprig, the German yachts did not have the slightest chance in todays contest. The Ellen at the start drew away from the rest of the fleet, continued to hold her lead all the way and slipped across the line fifty-three seconds ahead ot the Cima. The other yachts were far in the rear, while the Wittelsbacli made no effort to continue after the first round. The Klien has two legs in the President Wilsou'cup and a victory on Monday will give her possession.

Should either the Sprig or the Cima win, the sixth race wdl be sailed Tuesday. The German yachtsmen entertained tl.eir American friends at a dinner nt the Eastern Yacht clnb house otnight when toasts to the President and Emperor were drunk.
