BY "RICE." HOSE Brooklyn Superbas have not reached bottom, but their feet are getting mighty heavy, and there is never any telling when they will yell for the life guards ain't no guards" that we can detect with the naked eye, or even with an eye modishly attired in slit eyelashes. Losing to Boston on Thursday by 17 to 4, losing the morning game at Ebbets Field yesterday to the New York Giants by 5 to 2, and following that by losing the afternoon game at the same place to those same Giants by 9 to 5 had a depressing effect upon the local percentage, and the baseball forecasters huld out small hope of relief from the reign of low pressure. Eighteen thousand divers fans saw the morning fireworks and 23,000 the afternoon pyrotechnics; 41,000 in all.

That the well-known Brooklyn jinx is up and doing was evident yesterday afternoon, when Charles D. Stengel, favorably known as a center fielder, ran pell mell into second base in the sixth inning on a force play and sprained divers tendons in his ankle. Physicians were summoned from the audience and bound up the maimed athlete, bathing his brow with cooling lotions the while, for the heat was intense. Charles D. will be out of the proceedings for two or three days, or maybe more.

Zachary Wheat, left fielder extraordinary, has, it appears, a badly inflamed hand as the result of a bump he received from Sweeney of Boston while going to second base on July 1. George Cut- Close play in the third inning of the first game which a hit and Herzog drove a single to center. Stengel fumbled caused a big kick from J. Carlisle Smith. Tesreau scratched the ball and Tesreau, who had hesitated at second, made a dash for third.

Stengel's throw was perfect, and Smith put safe and J. Carlisle objected. Smith and Orth stood glaring the ball on Tesreau as he slid in. Umpire Orth called Jeff at each other for nearly a minute after the decision, while OFFICIAL SCORES. Records of the Big NATIONAL.

The second game was merely a case of getting Nap Rucker into a corner end battering him into submission. The Giants hammered him at will, and it would be UBeloss to tell the sickening details of how the slaughter was accomplished.

Brooklyn scored in the second Inning of the second game on Hummel's triple to right and Daubert's out cla Fletcher to Merkle. Fletcher singled In the third, took second on Rucker's single off Herzog's shins, went to third when Moran sacrificed, and scored on Cutshaw'i sacrifice fly to left.

EMPIRE HANDICAP WDN BY GHAPPLE Arthur Chappie, starting from scratch won the seven-mile Empire Handicap the feature event at the Brighton Beach Motordrome, last night. The speed king conceded large handicaps to the rest of the field, but he had no trouble in catching the limit men. Mike Costello was second and Paul Ohue third. In the eight-lap special match race, Martin Kessler defeated Phil Kearney and Hartley Thomas. Mike Costello won the three-mile professional race, while Ray Fischer annexed first honors In the two-mile novice event.

BROOKLYN ATHLETE SCORES AT CHICAGO Chicago, July 5 Harry Oltmann, National A. was the only representative of a Brooklyn club to carry off a prize at the junior national track and field championships at Grand Park yester day. Oltmann was second in the running hop, step and Jump, being nosed out by J. Radignn, Hibernian A. C.

The Chicago A. A. ran away with the point honors, scoring a total of 42. The Irish-American A. C.

of New York was second with 22 points, while the New York A. C. was third with 19. One Junior rocord was broken, when E. Lund, Irish-American A.

hurled the Javelin 118 feet 8 Inches. The cream of the country's athletes will compete in the senior championships here this afternoon. Several records are expected to be broken, with the Irish-American A. C. the favorite for the point honors.

Viox got the gate in the ninth inning for disputing one of Umpire Quigley's decisions. For the flrst time this season the Yankees beat an Eastern team on the Polo Grounds. After calmly submitting to a shut-out beating In the morning, the Yanks came back after lunch and hammered the daylights out of three Washington pitchers for a 6 to 2 victory. It was a disastrous day for Brooklyn In more ways than one, for the team lost the services of Its crack center fielder. Casey Stengel tore a ligament in his right leg, which will keep him out of the game at least three weekB.

Cincinnati scored a shut-out over the Cubs in the morning game, Miner Brown occuyplng the mound and allowing only six hits. Charley Murphy was tickled to death to see his cast-off stand his hired help on their heads. After losing eight straight games, the Phillies came back and took two from the Braves. The Bostons were helpless before the pitching of Seaton and Rixey, the former winning the morning game, and Rixey taking the afternoon session. NEW YORK CREWS WIN NEW ENGLAND HONORS (Special to The Engle.) Boston, July 5 Oarsmen from New York carried off the honors of the day at the twenty-seventh annual championship regatta of the New England Bowing Association, held here yesterday, the Charles River.

Seven of the nine races saw the sturdy men from New York cross the finish line first. In the senior double scull shells the Wahnetah Club of Long Island finished third and In the single sculls, senior, Thomas J. Rooney of the Ravenswood Long Island, finished third. Knock Out of Bud Anderson Proved New Yorker's Class. CHAMPION ALSO A WINNER, Sends Blvert to Sleep In "Eleven Bounds, and Baises His Standing.

How Willi Ritchie can now avoid meeting Leach Cross for the lightweight boxing championship la not clear, since toe eventi of yesterday. Cross knocked! out Bud Anderson, of Vancouver, In the twelfth rourd. nf Lna Ans-nlM Tlir was no dispute about It Cross won all toe way. On the other hand, Ritchie won all the war from Jose Rivers. In San DVanolunn and knocked him out In the, eleventh round.

Jack Biitton seems 4-n ha th unit other lightweight In sight who has th reputation to make him a serious fac tor in discussing the lightweight situation, but after the form Cross dls. played against Anderson, he gets the call over Brltton. and the ouhiio win demand that the champion give the New lork dentist a crack at the title. While Cross was flrhttna- ht. yesterday Brltton was also doing a stunt.

He made Charley White, the much-touted Chicago lightweight, run awav SO much In thalf hmt. Orleans that at the end of eighteen rounds the police became weary of the race and ordered the stopped. uruton naturally getting the decision. That warnlne will mnkn Brltton claimant for a go with Ritchie, but the general publlo will hold that Cross Is tho man RitnhlA munt mist if to remain nominally at the top of his emus auu nor. oe loosea upon as a Quitter.

Cross eomnletelv niitplnaaAi Anarem He outboxed him, and outslugged the man who gained fame as the first fighter to send Knockout Brown to sleep. When he finally did nut nvar- thAhi v.q native Anderson hit his head on the floor as ue weni aown, ana L. Cross was the worst scared boxer In Anderson Was linGOnSolOiia fn, fnn Cross thought he had killed his opponent, and the four minutes were the most uuiiuus ne ever spent In his busy life. Ritchie has never been esteemed highly since he became champion by beating Wolgast. There have been tntlma-4 Hons that he waa the child of ciroum-stanoes, and that he did not have real class.

He has taken things too easily, and has done too little fighting to please the fans, but some of the opinions will have to be revised since his decisive beating of Rivers yesterday. Rivers waa considered on an even footing, with, i Cross as the runner-up, for the championship, and Ritchie had to take one or the other of them. He chose Rivers, and chose wisely. To trim Rivers Is no. child's task, as the fans who saw him fight CroSB In New York will realise, and Ritchie's feat makes the champion's standing better than it ever has been.

M'NAMARA FORCED TO QUIT IN HIS GETAWAY RACE Owing to the fact that most of the senior and Junior athletes of the East are at present in Chicago, only two events were contested at the, Galway games held yesterday at Park. The five mile handicap which was the feature event was captured by Hugh Hon- ahan of the New York A. C. who was handicapped at three-hundred yards. McNamara, who was running his last race yesterday, started from scratch and although he ran gamely for three miles could not make any appreciable gain on the leaders.

At this ti nt the terrific heat of the blazing sun also began to affect him and he acknowledged his effort as hopeless by quitting. The veteran Irish American A. C. runner, Tom Collins, was also forced to succumb to the heat, aulttine nftpr nti.nina and one quarter miles.

third strike on Smith In the first game when Callahan and Oaubert had walked with none out, and Smith whiffed. Hummel died on a really marvellous catch by Snodgrass away down yonder In deep left center, almost to the fence. The ball was traveling on a line and far as Snodgrass' left. II ho had Just reached it enough to knock It down he would have covered himself with glory, but be did the unex pected ana caugut it. cauanan migni have gone to third but that would have done little good at that stage of the game.

Snodgrass gained more distinction when he finished the contest by catching a difficult fly in center from Bill Fischer, who was batting for Miller. Umpire Klem is considered by the ball players and newspaper men one of the very best In the business. We think he made a mistake on that third strike to Smith, but, to be perfectly frank, we do not think it had a serious effect on the result. Some Bonehead Plays. Brooklyn pulled a couple of boneheaded plays that were astonishing because the team hns not been doing that very thing.

Instead, it has been conspicuous all season for Its clever teamwork. Both the bones yesterday were in base running and they were aggravating. In the ninth inning of the second game Daubert singled and Smith drove to Herzog. Herzog threw to Doyle, forcln? Daubert. Doyle had plenty of" time, and threw to Merklo to double up Smith.

Merkle scrambled the throw but Smith seemed to take it for granted that it had been caught and eased up after passing i first. Shouts from the crowd warn4-WH I that he had a life, but he was all turned around and could not get a start back to firBt or a decent start lor secona. He elected to run for second and was out on Merkle's chuck to Doyle. Stengel, In the fourth Inning of the morning game, lost his number on the return throw to the infield after he had doubled to right and lost valuable time. He started for third and when he got there was so rattled he failed to sjlde and barely escaped alive, while the populace laughed derisively.

Smith Not to Blame. Smith was accused of committing en-other foolish break in the morning, but It was one of those cases where hindsight is better than foresight. Snodgrass singled in the fifth Inning and took second en Tesreau's scratch through Moran. singled to center, scoring Snodgrass and putting Tesreau on second. Herzog sacriitced Tesreau to third and Puma to second.

Fletcher drove to Smith, who made a difficult stop back of the bag. No hands were out and the logical move was to throw to tho plate to get such a slow runner as Tesreau, who was already half dead from the heat. Smith let Teareau olono. stubbed at Burns, who was coming up from second, and missed him. Tesreau had scored and nobody was out.

More Indignation by the populace. Life is short and the streets of Brooklyn are full of broken elass, but we do not think that Smith deserved the panning he got from most of the fans. It was a fast play, on wnich he could have made but one of two moves, and he made the ore that was plainest to him, for It was by no means a sure bet that he would catch Tesreau, As if to avenge Smith, Miller and Ylnfrllng Immediately afterward stung tho Giants with a debilitated and almost forgotten trick of bygone days. Burns was on third and Fletcher on first, when Jttcher sinrted a steal of socond. Mil ler made all the motions of a catcher going to throw to second, but whipped the ball to Yingling, who relayed It to Smith, and Burns was caught off third, retiring the side.

The Giants got the hoot, and well did they deserve the same. Bill Fischer Stung. Merkle stung honest Bill Fischer most cruelly in the seventh Inning of the second game. Merkle was on second and Murray on first. Bill conceived the monumental Idea of catching Merkle off second.

Bill Is young and anxious not to make mistakes, so he studied the situation carefully, but finally made the throw. Merkle read the mind of the catcher correctly and for third, which he reached In safety. Cutshaw was the victim of a similar incident in the second Inning of the second game, Murray was on third and Snodgrass on first when a double steal was started. Cutshaw got the throw, which was none too good, and had him off hiB balance. Instead of throwing back to the plate he ran down Snodgrass.

In our humble opinion he could not have caught Murray, and showed good Judgment In annihilating Snidgrass, but in that we disagree with the multitude. Yingling blew up in the seventh inning of the morning game as he was battling with big Jeff Tesreau. Yingling was being hit and hit hard all the time, but had luck, and his outfielders were with him until the fifth Inning. At that point luck deserted. The hits began to go to safe territory instead of into the fielders' mitts and the beginning of the end was at hand.

Five hits in a row, with two out, were rained off Yingling, for threo tuns, In the seventh Inning, which caused tls retirement in fnvor of Cliff Curtis, who let the Giants down with cna hit for tho rest of the game. Tesreau Sticks It Out. Tetreau acted like a man who was going to he overcome with the heat l.n the first game, but nevertheless he 3tuck to his knltMng end restrained the Super- to four scattered hits. He was relieved by Doc Crandall In the ninth after walking Callahan and Daubert, with r.one out, as has been narrated. Cran-drl! fanned Smith on the bad decision by Klin.

mnde his two sensational catches and Brooklyn's hopes of winning a morning July 4 gaaio in 1911, A.D., went gllmerlng. Brooklyn's two ruhs in the morn'ng cams were due lnrgely to a powerful double to left by Leo Callahan and the NEW YORK, 5: BROOKLYN, I (a.m.). NFJW YORK, BROOKLYN. (p.m.).

Louli at Chicago. Just goes to show how much gratitude those Giants possess when they wallop our boys twice in one day. They seem to have forgotten the fact that it was the Superbas that put them in first place, as usual, yet they send our boys kiting down into fourth place. Yingling deserved to win his game in the morning, and had not the Giants been extremely lucky in dumping several puny hits Just out of reach of the Brooklyn inflelders, Yingling might have copped. Otr boys made some wonderful plays under the circumstances, but luck was with the Giants.

Johnny Hummel came within an ace of making one of the most wonderful stops ever seen In this borough in the fifth inning of the morning game. Snodgrass sent a liner between third and short, and it was only by a superhuman effort that Hummel threw himself at the fast moving ball, and with his gloved hand knocked the hit down. It was too late to get the runner at first, but had not Johnny stopped the ball's flight it might have gone for a double. Snodgrass ought to have his salary raised. He alone saved the game for tho Giants In the last inning yesterday morning.

With two on. Hummel drove a long fly to left center, which was labeled home run. Snodgrass started with the crack of the bat, and running with the ball, leaped up and pulled It down near the center field fence. It was SOME catch and prevented the Su perbas from tying the score. The bases should have been full with none out in the ninth inning of the flrst game, but Umpire Klem picked out that time to call a raw strike on Smith.

The ball was more than a foot from the plate and it would have been the fourth ball. There was plenty of action in the aft ernoon game In Pittsburg yesterday. In the seventh inning a sand storm, bound, south. Interrupted the game for twenty minutes. In the ninth inning.

Score by Innings, 1S84587S haw hurt his leg yesterday immediately before Stengel was put out of condition, and the two plays were almost exactly alike. Cutshaw singled in the sixth inning with one out. Stengel drove to Fletcher, who tossed to Doyle at second.

Cutshaw ran into the bag standing up and stumbled across it. He caught his toe in the canvas and gave an Imitation of a human whirligig. How Stengel Was Hurt. Hummel then forced Stengel li precisely the same manner. Cutshaw had hurt himself when he tell, but after a long consultation with himself and oth-rs, he resumed the strife, subsequently whanging a conscientious and wholcsoma three-bagger to left with two on bases.

Stengel also tried to resume, but when he made a quick step, he made some remarks not Included In Dr. Felter'3 curriculum on the higher baseball anl was convinced that he needed rest and quiet. His place was taken In center by Benny Meyer. A resounding and patriotic exposition of language came from the Giants ir. the ninth Inning.

It was touched off by Rube Hall, who halls from Jtlchwood, W. and who knows all about feuds and moonshine whisky and Santa Claus, and apparently Giants. G. Napoleon Ruckor bud been thumped out of the box by tho end of the eighth round, and Hall w.u given his first chance to appear with a major league team. Rube had more smoke than a flre In a leather store, and whiffed Hartley, who caught the eighth and nluth innings for the Giants.

"Beanie" Hall Wins Fame, Thus did "Beanie" Hall or Richwond, W. bring honor to his State by striking out three New York GUnts in a row on his debut In the big leagues.

The Japs, who had to put their hats on with a shoehorn after winning the Battle of the Talu, were made to look like amateurs this morning when Mr. Hall was keen adjusting his headgear. And Justly bo, for Rube did not do bis utrlkint; out by any fluke or false motion, but by pitching what looked to us mighty serviceable shoots. Expatiating upon the accomplishment cf Rube Hall brings to mind the untimely finish of G. Napoleon Knciter, "king of the left-handers, wb'i whs Klba-ed by the Giants after elsht rounds.

In which he was treated like nun nf the common people under a Republican ad ministration. The Giant-' Hlawmed hUn for thirteen hits, getting one or mora iu every inning except the sixth, when Chlitf Meyers drew a base on bails, and was left because the next thret gents perished miserably on flies. The Sad Case of Rucker. Every one of our large and Intelligent circle of readers will ask was the matter with G. Napoleon Rucker his set duel on a holiday with hid ancient and chief rival.

Rube ilarquard. We will answer In words of one syllable that we do not know. G. N. Rucker was present, but he was not "there." He wus deficient, not to say minus, and the Giants spanked him where" it would do the most good.

It wos all very sad, acd we hope never to look upon its like again. Concerning the general festivities, it may be said that the morning game was the hottest battle since Gettysburg as regards the weather. The thermometer was around 100 degrees on the ball field and In the seats that were not shaded. The hardiness of the athletes In not being stricken on the diamond was amazing. In the afternoon the conditions were about 2 degrees better, but there were no signs of fur overcoats.

About Forty Thousand Spectators. The morning game drew about eighteen thousand citizens of one sort and another. The afternoon game taxed the capacity of the park, which seats about twenty-three thousand. None of the crowding and Jamming In the marble rotunda that marked other big days was noticeable. Most of the reserved seats had been sold In advance.

In fact, all of those for the afternoon game had been told by Thursday night. They were used through the rotund's, while the four outside gates handled the 75-cent seats. The arrangement seemed to work perfectly, as far as relieving congestion was concerned, and vindicated President Ebbets. whose rotunda idea had been roasted because of the trouble before the big games earlier in the season. Ticket speculators were on hand, but before they got very far they pot It in the neck.

Boss Ebbets was notified, and, arriving in his shirt sleeves and wrath, he chased the speculators away. Some of their tickets he turned down and otherwise he discouraged them. A number of sharp-faced persons from Manhattan whom you would not trust alone a holy minute In the presence of a chaste or chased silver spoon, were hanging outPld" complaining that it vas a bird way to make a living and debating whether It was really as hard as reported to get your grub by working-Giants Plnyed Better. Concerning the inside serrets of the two games little Is to be said. The Giants outplayed Brooklyn in both.
