NEW YORK , Oct. 15. In the National
eaguo base ball race Just finished excite
ment. on the whole was nt n discount. There
were many exciting games and In eoiuo re
spects the playing , generally speaking , was
ilgh class. It was too much of a proces
sion to be n race , Long before the season
ended the Brooklyns were- conceded to ho
he coming champions , their lead after they
lad once went to the front , \\hlch wns on
May 22 , seldom being BO small as not to be
reckoned as safe. The real fight was for
second place.
Brooklyn's \vln of this year's pennant ,
while devoid of any grandstand elements ,
was thoroughly Impressive. The Brooklyns ,
as a result of their consistently strong game ,
> crformed the remarkable feat of never rc-
Inqulshlng their grip on first place after
aklng that position. They had a couple ot
iad spe-lls , however , In which their lead
was reduced materially , but each time pulled
up. Their most uneasy time was toward
the ci.il of June , when they lost eight
straight games.
Boston gave Indications nt times ot wrest-
ng the lead from Brooklyn , doing some flno
ilaylng In the west , but falling to put up
: he old invincible game at home. One of
LliB best period the champions had was In
May. On May 16 they were sixth , on Juno 1
they were eeconcl.
The Philadelphia team , which finished
third In the race- , was n bit too streaky to
win the pennant , but still enough to bo
dangerous. They held the lend at one time
In the first part of April , hut by the middle
of June they were as low as fifth. Then
they began climbing up again and for the
last three months alternated with Boston
In second and third places.
Baltimore finished fourth. In April and
May they were In the second division , but
they went Into the first division with a
rush. They jumped from seventh place
to third In the short space of two weeks.
Within two weeks more they had dropped
hnck to sixth place , then they went p the
ladder " again , staying In fourth place for the
last "two and a half months.
I'erfcutON n Dlsaiijiolnlmciit.
The St. Louis team proved disappointing.
They were the only team besides the Brook
lyns that held the lead for any length o
time. At different times , however , they oc
cupied every position In the first division ,
their close fight with the Clnclnnatls for
flftt place being one of the season's
features.
The Clnclnnatls have to their credit the
most remarkable spurt ot the aennon , win
ning thirteen straight games. They were ,
however , cnce the race was fairly undci
way , never prominent for the pennant.
The Plttsburg team was a second division
factor from the start , but they did especially
well In the last two months , when their
playing was of flrst division caliber and
better than one or two teams Just ahead
of them.
The Chlcagos , who started off well , grad
ually went down the ecale , winding u-
eighth , nud the Louisvllles did a shade
worse.
The New Yorks made the worst showing
ever made by a Now York league team. II
may bo raid , with griefof ' them
that they got away poorly and stayed there.
Apart from general demoralization , tbe New
Yorks had the worst luck In the league
Many of the team's players were hurt during
the season.
The Washington and Cleveland aggre
gallons were next 'to last and last. The
former was conspicuous for the amount o ;
experiments in players that it tried and the
persistency witn which It hovered near the-
tall end.
Of the Clcvclands it can simply be said
that no league team over did so poorly.

Sir Itciliile.i l'rhiol pul tinlii
Went of
P.issongora who occupied the sumptuous
traveling palace train that easily nnd grace
fully swept out from the union depot Sun
day morning at 8:20 : , destined for the Pacific
coast , will arrive In San Francisco Tuesday
evening nt 6:15 : Initead of 8:60 : ns formerly.
This Is made possible by the change ot
schedule and the shortening of the tlmo be
tween Chicago nnd San Francisco , InauKur-
alcd by Iho Northwestern , Union Pacific and
Soulhern Pacific railroads.
The Northwestern train \vhlch left Chicago
at 6:30 : Saturday evening rolled Into the
union depot nt 8 o'clock.
After the usual hustle and bustle Incident
to the arrival of a transcontinental train ,
Iho Union Pacific "Overland Llmlled" was
ready lo start on Its Initial Journey under
a new time schedule , nnd In a few minutes
It was on Us way weslward.
Many of Iho smaller , unpfelentlous towns
along the Union Pacific , where the Over
land Limited formerly stopped , will bo
pcised by now , In order to gain time. The
principal gain , however , 1s made by the
Southern Pacific between Ogden and the
Pacific coasl. Its shortened time , however ,
now docs not compare with the schedule
made by the Union Pacific through territory
corresponding In topographical situation ,
The I'nst Mull.
There wns but a brief respite for the
truckmen who handle the mall and baggage
and express at the union depot after the
Overland Limited left the station Sunday
morning , and , of course , the same condition
of nffalrs will apply hereafter. Very soon
another train came lo a stop on the Union
Pacific tracks. It lacked the trim , stylish
appearance of the Limited , for there were
no nleepers or chair cars. BUI the nctlvlly
It aroused was Interesting to 6bserve. Great
trucks , heaped high with sacks of mall ,
were hurriedly dragged from the depot to
the train and the moll matter transferred
to the four moll cars which were immedi
ately in the rear of the engine. Baggage
and express cars following were loaded to
their full capacity. At the rear was one
single coach. The train was the "Fast Mail"
which runs between Omaha and Ogilcu. It
will do the local work between these two
cities , stopping at all slnttons. However.
this fact need not detract from its Import
ance for , In truth. It will make faster time
than the Overland Limited which left but
a few minutes before It. Having a greater
number of stops It needs must make bet
ter time , for It Is scheduled to overtake
the Overland Limited at Ogdcn Tuesday
morning.
The third transcontinental train , the Pa-
ilflc Express , left Sunday afternoon at 4
o'clock and will continue to do so In the
future Instead of 4:25 : as formerly. This
train reaches San Francisco at 9:45 : on the
morning of the third day after Its departure.
In order to make connections with the
Overland Limited on the Union Pacific , the
Milwaukee from the cast will reach Omaha
at 7:55 : a. m. . Instead of 8:20 : a. m.
Enstbound from San Francisco train No.
the Overland Limited , will leave nt S a.
. , arriving in Omaha the second evening
at 7:15 : , thus making the Journey cover only
two nights. This train will reach Chicago
at 8:30 : a. m. No. 6 , the Chicago Special ,
from Portland and San-Francisco , will leave
the latter city at 6 p. m. anil arrive Ih
Omaha the third afternoon at 4:35. : No. 4 ,
the Atlantic express , will leave San Fran
cisco at 9 a. m. and arrive in Omaha the
third morning at 6:30. :
While It Is generally recognized that the
Union Pacific and Northwestern will reap
the major share of tbo business both eastbound -
bound and westbound as the result of this
shortened schedule , by reason of the faci
that the trains are through trains on these
three lines , without any change whatsoever
still there are other roads that will get a
slice of the business , as they have hereto
fore , particularly on eastbound traffic. The
shortened tlmo of the Southern Pacific eastbound -
bound hns resulted In the Denver & Illo
Grande putting on a new train enstbound
to connect with the. Southern Pacific at
Ogdcn. This has necesBllaled a change In
the Burlington's eastbound schedule whereby
Its Chicago Daylight Special leaves Denver
an hour and ten minutes later than formerly.
It will leave Omaha at 7:46 : a. m. . Instead
of C:40 : a. m. , which is considered an ad
vantageous change because of the greater
convenience to the patrons of the road. This
train will reach Chicago at 9:25 : p. m. , and
while Its arriving time there is an hour
nnd ten minutes later than formerly , It
dees not Interfere with eaatern connections
nnd deposits the traveler In Chicago Just nt
the hour when be is ready to retire.
