Scores -of persons .followed the pitcher and- patted him on the back, congratulating him upon his fine work in the box. Manager McGraw elbowed hiS way through the throng .to the Jted Sox clubhouse beneath the stand. where he congratulated Mr. Stahl and the Rex Sox players. "I can't say that I'm glad Jake, but one of the teams had to win; it was the Red Sox and congratulations are in-order..! said Manager 1 McGraw,' addressing Stahl. . . , , A spectator addressed an insulting remark to --McGraw -as he J walked across the diamond -and blows were passed, 'but no damage done. .
