There Is gloom In Detroit to-hlght.

Hut -there Is one bold spirit which doe - not know the meaning of tlie wfitd di-feat This daunt less heart beats In the breast of Man ager Uugh Jennings, of Detroit He be lieves In hi team believes that It will yet prove Its superiority over all comers and he does not contemplate. past de feats, but took forward to another year and another strurgle which may have an other result Jennings was not beatan to-day until Schmidt's foul m the ninth had found secure and final lodirmertt In KUng's capacious mitt. Through the fierce uphill battle this afternoon he stolid en the coaching line 0(1 first base, coach ing the runners on every move and spur ring the batsmen on to make their best efforts. No succee of the rival team and no failure of his own club dampened his determined cheerfulness. There was never a falling note In his cry of "Wee Ah" and any slight advantage ee him, to cuUng his peculiar war dance. FEATURES OP THE GAIR A feature of the game was Schmidt's recovery of his throwing aim. which, had Hot been working well during any pre Vkrtis game.
