Quinn ana ariaen win teei about it lr the Broves should win, and, .this couple misses -the chance at all the world's series money which they might have had?. When they jumped to the Feds, they did no believe the Braves had one chance in a thousand to . finish first this year. ' , The Giants are really the only team which cannot lay claim-vto" the, CHRISTY MATHEWSON championship, because of the Fed eral League. The club lost such men as Arthur . Wilson and "Doc" Crandall to the new organization, but - we cannot figure them re sponsible for- the loss of the cham pionship, if we , do .miss it. Both . Wil son ..and. Crandall are good players, but neither would have worked reg ularly -enough to influence the final standing of the club. , The, best alibi we -have is in the desertion of -Ss-fer, but even that is not a very good one. Therefore, "I' guess we will have to turn to and wiM the flag, yet.' Everybody else has a passable alibi to use. : -.'
