Coach Guyer left this morning for West Point with a squad of nineteen men. l Final practice was held last night In J the form of a long signal drill after i Which the men were named who would make the trip.

Pitcher Bill Donohue, the lead ing pitcher of the Reading team/ this sensor., is McGraw's latest acquisition. Donohue was sent to the New York State League team from Detroit last seascn. He was not recalled or draft ed, but after the season closed here Dr. F. N. Tate sold him to the Giants on the optional agreement. Dr. Tate will, therefore, get a stipulated amount for Donohue if he makes good. The !>iteher's home is at Scranton. In an exhibition game at New Ha ven, Conn., last Sunday, Donahue, who is now with the Giants, did some of the pitching. The New Yorkers siet a club composed of former Federal Leagye players and won by a score of 8-5. Donahue pitched the last two innings, after five runs had been made on Pie Way, the Yale star. Bill did not allow a batter to got as far as first base in the two rounds that he served. Bill Scheppner, third baseman, and Babington, outfielder, who were with the Reading team, are members of the Giants. In addition to the sale of Donohue by the optional agreement, Dr. Tate gets $750 for "Lefty" Gerner, who was drafted by Cincinnati. New York Wins Two More; Eliminate Boston Red Sox New York, Sept. 29. Boston was virtually eliminated from the Na tional League pennant race here yes terday, when New York twice defeated the visitors, 2 to 0 and 6 to 0. The victories boosted the New York's winning streak of twenty-five straight games. Schupp gave another finished per formance in the second game. Not a man reached base against him until the sixth inning, when Blackburn walked. Konetchy got the only hit, a single in the seventh. These two were the only players to reach first base. Benny Kauff hit a home run in the third inning of the second con test with the bases full. In this in ning Gowdy was banished from the game for disputing a decision by Um pire Rigler. In the first game Tesreau and Rudolph engaged in a pitching duel, and the Giant hurler had the better of his rival. Robertson virtually de cided this game by lifting the ball into the upper tier of the grandstand in the fourth inning for a home run. / f . \ Baseball Situation in National League Less than two points behind Brooklyn with two more games to play than the Dodgers and with still two more games to play at Brooklyn, the Phillies are now right in a position to put over the finish punch, it is quite possible that rain may figure in deciding .he winner of the race. The wea ther man last night said there were grave fears of there being a storm both in this city and at Brooklyn to-day. He is no more certain of it, however, than the Dodgers are that they will win from the Phillies. W. L. Pot.

It would place an additional strain upon the pitch ing , department As the race stands now Brooklyn-' has 6 games to play to the Phillies' 8. If both clubs win all those games, which is impossible, the Phillies would • win" the pennant. If Brooklyn wins one game from the Phils and all four from the Giants the Phillies would have to win all six remaining games from the Braves to win the pennant. So, weather conditions may figure decidedly In the final reckoning. Boston lost half a game in the American League race yesterday and leaves Chicago and Detroit still | In the hunt.
