The re T ,, versal In the Miners' playing began on il( Kilday, Aug. 0, tho day they returned ,tiom tliolr disastrous trip and when ap ,'pearc'd In The Tribune an extended " story foreshadowing the shake-up that ''immediately took place. Since that time tho team has con "n tlnued the hitting which has made "'them In that icspect tho wonders of the " league. Their Individual fielding has "' not been as good, but their team work has become better than at any time ' since early In the season, and the re "' suit Is seen In the but two games lost " out of the last twelve played. Manager Griffin's presence In the ""game and his remarkable hitting, the appearance of Harry at short field, Bonner's captaincy and an honest at tempt to play collectively In an effort to make nmends for the bad work of ' the past, are some of the plain reasons for the changrc in form.

Umptro-MaBou. mm of "Six of the team have batted nbovo .300 per cent., and that docs not Include Heard, Wellner and O'Brien, who were released, with averages of .33S, .320 and .300 respectively, No team In tho league possesses such a record. Tho high averages amounted to little when tho club was losing nearly every game, but It cuts quite a figure In tho recent splendid work of tho team. Another gratifying fact Is that only one mem ber of the team has fielded below tho 900 mark. The exception Is Mngulre. The high fielding averages have not been sustained lately by record play ing, either, but were maintained while every player was taking all possible chances. Manager Orlfiln leads In batting with Rn nerage of .429 In fourteen games, a. gait that cannot bo maintained, but which will bo above .350 nt the closo of the season. Walters, Bonner, Massey, Engan and Barry, all above .325, come next In the order named. Qunson, Massey and Engnn have Increased their percentages, while Walters, Bonner, Boyd and Magulre show a decrease. An examination of tho pitchers' rec ord will show that the Miners might now be ahead of Providence and pos sibly In fourth place If Wellner had pitched as many winning games as his mates. Although Johnson has won both his games, Harper should be con sidered the winning pitcher, as John son's percentage of games won would be greatly reduced by a few defeats. Harper, too, holds the strike-out rec ord, but In other respects Harper, Morse and Glllon have proved about equally effective. In team playing the Miners have made sixteen more runs, 163 more hits, IS more earned runs and 1 less error than the sum total of clubs opposed to them. They might yet attain a higher position In the race, though their climb could scarcely lie higher than Provi dence, as Toronto, Syracuse and Buf falo, tho tlireo leaders, can lose the majority of their games and might still be among the first four clubs. Everything summed up, the Scran ton club has performed splendidly of late and on its return from Buffalo de serves to receive every encouragement nnd a generous patronage from tho cranks. Nine games, beginning Wed desday, are to be played with Toronto, Syracuse and Montreal In the order named. Battg. Avg. .429 .307 .338 .310 .330 .320 .2fi5 221 .ISO .153 .144 .000 Fldjr.

Tho Miners witnessed yesterday's gamo at Buffalo. Bonner has mado 133, Massey, 117, and Eagan, 101 hits. Peter passed tho cen tury mark Saturday. Jack O'Brien left the team with 64 runs to his credit. Tho nearest approach to it Is Bonner, 61, Eagan. 69. Johnson had but one fielding chance In his two games. Morse and Harper havo had but one error each; Glllon has had live. It paid Wllkes-Barre to play In Buf falo yesterday. Tho Bisons won, but the Barons shared in a big division of money and didn't drop nny lower In the race. Tho Miners retain their lead as tho batting champions of tho league, and just at present they are winning nearly all their games which Is a more grati fying fact. Bannon's feat of throwing Lyons out at first yesterday was the first time that was done at Hampden park. Springfield Union. Bannon threw out a very fast man at that. The Sun says that It Is pretty well un derstood that Manager Barnle, of tho Brooklyns will have new players to sup plant Lachance, Cnnavan, George Smith, Shindlc, Grim and Burrell next year. Loul-svtlle is to get Its pick of the Mont real team as payment for tho release or Frank Shannon. It Is doubtful If there Is a man among tho Pea Soups. It would bo Joke It if took Manager Dooley away from his newly-acqulrcd Job. Scranton has a postponed gamo at Wllkes-Barre. Wonder they didn't take advantage of yesterday's open dato to play It off. It would have been cheaper than being Idle. Springfield Union. Tne Miners would but the Barons dasscn't. Scranton Tribune. How about Spring field's postponed gamo at ScrantonV Springfield Union. Burns didn't want to play it and Sandy wasn't overly anxious. Manager Murray has signed Yeager, of the Bostons. In his first game with the Grays, at Springfield, yesterday, ho made ono of the five hits secured by the Provi dence team. Ho Is well known here, hav ing been a catcher with the Pawtuckets before ho went into the big league. The Boston club had four catchers, and Mur ray has been working to get Yeager for his aballylt as an all around player. Prov ldenco enthusiasts who went to Boston to see the series with the Ba'.tlmores were delighted by Yeager's fine work as an In fielder at the time Bobby Lowe was out of the game. Murray will Ret two moro men from National league clubs. He had arrangements partially completed for the release of one of them to bo made to day, and that man will Join tho team to morrow or Sunday If the deal goes through. Manager Murray will not per mit publication of this player's name un til tho deal Is made, becauso another cluo In the big league Is after the man and might step in and tecure him if It were known that he was to bo released.
