National League race is in evidence
once more thus early tn the 1916
oti'uggle for a flag. The little Napol-
eon, with a team well tuned for a
jumping start on the lleld, by a series
of unexpected accidents is confronted
today with -a possible wreck from a
weak spoke which he thought.» one of
the very soundest of‘his wheel.
When Gabby Crahulh Ilid $00.0

game Wednesday he almost cutithat

llut worse still he cut the" foot. Drain-
oru played yesterday, but on nerve
and (no. leg. He had to play because
there-was no one else to cover “one
sition. lHunter, another underutudi
of Hans Lolmrt, has a badly milled
hand. Hialujury is even more sort
ous than that of Brainord.
Lobert do use: he played his last

'riila injury was similar to that which
incapacitated him a year ago-and do-
vclopad an infield weakness where
McGraw had counted upon '1“!!!
ntiength. Lobert never was his real
raelf again during the 1915 campaign.
Now that weakened underpinning has
broken down again and broken down

lo‘a miracle if Hans is ever able to
«avert again upon it with major leag-
ne assurance.
liobert's physician, who examined
him at his home in this city, found the
injury so aggravated that they order-
ed the knee put in a plaster cast yes-
terday morning. The doctors say this
(‘ul-‘l must be kept on for three weeks
or ll month and that Hans meanwhile
must keep the injured limb perfectly

rm accident of such gravity usually
spells the end of usefulness in fast

denied the story attributed to him in
