By a score of 13 to 2 tbe Mackmen today defeated tbe New York Giants after a game In- which tbe National league leaders were simply slaught ered. All the craft of Ames, Wlltae ana Marquard failed to atay the fierce bat ting of the Athletics, while Dig Chief Bender, on tbe American league team, although, scored on in Xhe first Inning., held the Giants In the hollow of hi hand until the last half of tbe ninth, when they were virtually preaenteJ with a run for charity's aake. - In tbe third Inning Lord's double scored Thomas for the first Athletic run. In the fourth, Baker, tbe trouble maker, rapped out a single,-,-yvbtcb started a rally and before It waa over four runs had put the game on Ice. No acore waa made In the fifth, but In the sixth the Mackmen added an other tally. Then came the lucky aeventh. But It waa not lucky for New York.

In tbe ninth Oldrlng's fumble and a wild pitch put Herzog, who had aingl ed, on third, and he acored on Fletch er'a uot. The marvel of the game waa the way New York went to pieces In the fourth and the aeventh Innings. Whn the big bata of the Athlctlca began to swing the New Yorkers played bush league ball. They we're all over the shop, making wild pitches and ragged playa which were 'nexcusable. True clasa showed ltaelf In the game and there Is no longer doubt aa to which league boaata tbe right to the cham pionship of the national game. Flrat Inning. New York Devore out.
