The game will be witnessed by several thou .aand fans and as Manager Moretng f the Stockton champions has sworn to take a fall out or tha Slants, mere will probably be a first-class article of ball dished up. ' ; -So far,, the players .have spent most f their time in chasing long files, bat ting against the vsrious pitchers and In Infield nractice. Great, big. husky Mike Mitchell, who raps most of the flies the outfield, delights in making mna ger McCredle -and Jimmy Hale "run ' their heads off after the sphere. The Indications are, that Mitchell will awina a mlahty vlciooe stick this year lie meets the ball hard and drives It ao fpr that you can't hardly see It By : the war.

Moors, the Columbus univer sity twlrler, will probably develop Into one of the fnstent men in the league. Just now McCredle Is using him mostly on third bste. Moore will cover the sack up until the third week when the mants will go to Los Angeles. Then Jud Smith, will fall In and take his regu Ut .berth at the dlffloult corner and Morirewlll be assigned to pitcher's duty. Ths other three young pitchers, Mer I kle. Howard and Gillespie, who are be ting tried out by McCredle, enow every Valgtt of making good. Ail three of these boys Jiave nice breaks o their-belli 'and ' they are developing considerable ' Speed. Merkle Is a San Jose pitcher who has gained considerable experience ,ln the bushes. Gillespie made a good . record pitching up around Grass Val ,,ley Inst year..

Result in San Francisco Having No ' Contests for Several Months Gans May Box Turner at Sacramento. Bv W. W. Nsughton. Special Diuatck by Leased Wire la The Journal) San .Franolsco. . March II. Ioa An geles Is surely tha storm .center of pugilism Just at present.' Th deadlock In th San . Francisco fight trust is water -on -th wheel of - Promoter Mo- Carey of the southland, and Ilk a wis fellow, he is making th most of his opportunity.: With Jimmy Brltt booked for on match and Battling 'Nelson for another and with Abe Attell and Frankle Nell algned up for a third attraction. It seems as though th Queensberry tree has been "rifled of Its , most . tempting plums. :...! or course- there is a better cam in alght than any of these, but from pres ent Indications th chances ar about one in a thousand of its ever being ar ranged. - - f mean - Battling -' Nelson and Joe Gans. Of course, if one view the sltuatloa from the highly moral standpoint, Gans hasn't a vestige of right to consldsra- tlon. When .it suited his purpose he made no bones of sdmlttlng that he had figured In several queer fights, and man who owns up to work of that kind should not complain If he is forced to stand in the background and watch hi chlckena coming home to roost ' A 'part of Gans' defense is that lspsee of tha kind he confessed to have been condoned In others, and he is right. For this reason alone there are any number of sporting men who think ' that tha colored fighter should be given a ohano to redeem himself. -t - In th contests he has had. sine h earn west with th ostensible purpose or beginning all over again with a clean slats, ha baa fought like a Trojan and his splendid workmanship ha compelled admiration from many who -are preju- I diced against him on account of his past icoro. . .( SCeeta Many JPatrosa. ,T In my dally -walka I meet a sufficiency of fight patrons to be able to form opin ions as to what Ideas are popular among sports of that class and I have no hesi-J tanoy In saying . that a Gana-Nelson match would prove a bigger attraction than any other puglllatio event at pres ent In sight Th majority of San Franciscans ap pear to think that Gans Is sincere in his protestations and that his desire -to box th Dan ia born of an ambition to f-prov that he la a real champion of his class and not of a wish to msk a kill ing by devious methods. It is equally certain that Nelson's claim that it Is the odorous reputation borne by Gans that stands In th way of a contest is not accepted as bona fide. Th plain truth of th matter la that Nelson' attitude towards Gsns has caused the durable Dan to appear a good deal less of a hero In tha eyea of number of lovers, of ring pastimes. When tha Battler was fighting his way to th front he was viewed aa a fellow who asked no quarter and gave none- human fighting machine, who, when lir action.-tiever asked tha time of day or the distance Traveled."- , When X Beat Brits. - When,' he crowned a splendid record defeat by hammering Jimmy Brltt to at Colma he was regarded aa th .fighter of The" century t his weight and it was believed tUst he would never back water or split hairs when ' required to meet a pugilist on a pound for pound beats. Well, you csn bring a horse to tha pond. but cannot make him drink. - The only thing ia that as long as ths shadow of Gans falls sthwart the lightweight scene. Nelson and th other men in that; claas should be frank enough to admit that they ar only boxing for the fvloe- ohampionshlp. At the present-writing it la doubtful li San Francisco will have any boxing fault la with - tha truat. . Tntarnafllne 1 strife has brought about a condition of affaire where. the trust members meet, have th minutes of the previous meet ing read and then adjourn. Tha trouble.- it ia understood, is over the appointment of a matchmaker. Cof- I froth wants tha Job and ao does Morris . Levy. Whenever the question la Intro duced "Coffroth snd Brltt vot on wsy, ' while Graney and Levy take the other end of It The Individual members of the trust discuss matches out on th street, but never In meeting, end unless the warring stockholders agree upon someone- to arbitrate their differences. the tie-up is liable to laat th whole year. ' ; L O'Brien, ana Borger. ' t'noff Iclally the truat has been talk ing of matching Jack O'Brien and Sam Berger. The latter, blows hot and cold alternately In regard to turning profes sional, but th latest Is that he will agree to fight O'Brien in May If the "proper Inducements:' are offered. He pleads that he Is as fat as a whale and that he could not get ready to enter the ring before Msy. The generst opinion is that if the trust would settl Us dif ferences and get down to a working basis there would be little difficulty in bringing O'Brien snd Berger together. A Sacramento matchmaker ia working up a go between Joe Gana and Rufe Turner and matter have progreeaed to a stage where It Is regsrded ss certain that the two colored llghtwelghta will box in the city named next month.
