As the games, which do not mean anything but loss of dig nity, went aheud yesterday, Wui iugiuii, Cleveland and the St. Louis iirowns lost tu minor Knguc clubs. Tho Philadelphia Athletics, New York Giants und Detroit main tained the prestige of tho majors by beutlng back tho opposition from lower classifications. Four National League clubs en gaged in battles which might havo been dropped out of the regular scuson weeks ahead. Drooklyn made it three in a row from Lost on by winning a well-pitched game, 3 to 2, whllo the Chicago Cubs were trouncing tho Pittsburgh Pirates, 5 to 2. The Browns were cheered in their 3-to-2 defeat by the Kansas City Blues at the pitching of Georgo Blaeholder, Tulsa's con tribution to the St. Louis pitch ing staff. He showed good form and left tho game in time to escape the beating. The Washington Senators, de feated by Birmingham, made Ed Wells, former Detroit pitcher, a goat when he was cast for the part of a hero. He won 1 3 games and lost only one for Bir mingham last year. The score was 7 to 6. The New Orleans Pelicans have not learned to pronounce the name of Joe tihaute, but they solved his dolivery to win from Cleveland, 16 to 13. The Giants came from behind to score 17 runs In a singlo In lng and stop the Chattanooga Lookouts, 13 to 8. Until the loaded hour, when aome of the players went to bat three times, the Giants had no part of 17 runs. Tho Athletics appeared for the series to decide the championship of Philadelphia today by staging a white elephant parade at Greensboro. Tho Piedmont Leaguers were buried under a count of 22 to 6. Six home runs, four In one Inning, helped tho winners. Eddie Collins and Tris Speaker struck blows for the old guard. Jimmy Fox represented the juveniles with two, and Dykes and Hauser completed the sextet. The Phillies, weather-bound at homo, Impatiently awaited their opponents' coming.
