for the middleweight honors
later. Joe (Jans and Battling Nelson
ffo on here for the lightweight Tinnors
' and within a coupla of months, Tommy
Burns ahd Ketchl are to polish It off
for the heavyweight title.
The carnival In this city ahould prove
one of the best known here for many a
moon. It Is seldom Indeed that any pro
moter Is fortunate enough to sign up
two championship bouts within two days
of each other. Generally, the fighters
' themselves are the first ones to holler
at such a proposition, hut this time,
both Moran and v.-iell agreed to fight
" n iiHjrday, thmigh they must liave
' realized tuat the Ganfi-Nelson fight two
days later would surely hurt the at-
. tendance at their engagement.
The Attell-Moran mill will give the
... fans anmethlng to wager their monov
on If nothing more. It is an even prop
osition and you can write your own
ticket at the present time and the wag
erlng has been more lively on this en
counter than on any scheduled heYe for
' the last year or more and simply be
caane the men -are evenly matched.
j Most of the recent fights In -this city
. have been 3 to 1 or worse, one of the
principals being regarded as a certain
- winner before he stepped Into tho ring
with his opponent. ' .
It Is too bad that tha route In the
coming mill IS not a little longer. Were
it 85 or 40 rounds Instead of the jinks
JS rounds, Moran wouhl stand a far
better chanoe. . f
Attell a. Wonder.
Attall has always been regarded as
a marvelous boxor and said by some to
t the peer of any man in the world
today, but those who used to think this
are now willing to. concedo that Abe
does not flgrure with poor old Joe Gang
when it comes to a question of real
science, ring1 generalahip, accuracy In
hitting and all around rinjf etionet.
This pair of glove-wlelders met each
other for tha first time In a friendly
sparring boof itiree rounds nt ('roll's
fardens, Alameda, the other day. Wore
han 3,000 fan turned out to witness
the mlxup, tot it had been advertised
far and near and the price of admis
sion was naught. Everybody naturally
expected that Attell would give Gans
an awful time with the gloves, but to
their sorrow and surprise, tho old mas
tar showed the little fellow up.
Q ana Shows Abe a Few Things.
Krom the moment the bell sounded.
Gans was after Attell. He gave one of
the most marvelous exhibitions of box
ing that was ever known around this"
cny. He tried everything that he knew
on the elusive Ah" and stranftc-ly
anough, he got away with it. Abe pim
ply was not there with Gans. The old
boy had too much for the youngster,
and try as he might, l.e could not get
away from the ex-lightweight champion,
who was cirnlntc ail the time.
This bout demonstrated that Gans is
as fast and ax clover If not more so
than he wns when lie pained the cham
pionship by heatlnp Frank Krne seven
years ago. Now the question is: Can
Joe come back :u.d ro the route after
taking that awful beating from Nelson
the last lime th-'v met' lie cays that
r,i long as possible. The wise ones, how
, v.utii, r' . - , m .
Two riavs ever, cannot see now i,ans ngures in
uro oui nelson. ne i.iu-u 10 uu it on i
two other occasions ami they cannot i
be convinced that he will have any the
better of it at the next meeting,
especially as Nelson sure has his goat
now and prnhably for all time to com".
Xetchal la Afraid. j
Jo O'Connor, manager of Ketchel j
and Incidentally one of the most con- I
celted and unpopular men who ever
handled a prize fighter in this city. I
added to his own sour reputation the !
other day when he announced that his
man had drawn the'color lino, or rather!
th.vt ho had done the drawing for him'
ana that there will be no . chance for
Ketchel to ever mix It with Sam l.ang- !
ford., the creat colored mtdrllawaiff hi 1
considered Dy the old Judges of the
game to be the best man in his class
fdnce tha palmy days of Bob Fitt
elmmons. Several of the local promoters, In
cluding Jim Coffroth, wanted to get a
match between Ketchel and 1angford
for the near futyre and when this sub
ject was broached. O'Connor Immediate
ly got busy and drew the color line, as
he called It, but those whom he of
fended termed It the "danger line.''
Unless O'Connor changes his mind very
shortly, thero will be no fight between
his man and Ijangford, though if this
ever came off, It would undoubtedly
, prove one of the greatest ring at
tractions we have known since the old
days.
It- Is funny how O'Connor Is drawing
the color lino now. A month ago he
agreed to take Ketchel to Goldfleld
on labor day and put him on with
Young Peter Jackson, a man who
though not quite as classy a fighter
as Langford Is several shades darker.
O'Connor, however, also broke this
match off to sign his man for the labor
day meeting with Billy I'apke before
Jim Jeffries' Ixi3 Angeles club. This
will be a ZS-round affair.
Wants Go With Barns.
Ketchel claims that his nn nm-
bltioa is to beat Tommy Burns in the
near future and thereby gain the
world's heavyweight championship. He
says that he will never make weight
aenln after he Is through with Papke
and that if he Is succesful In this
fight he will go right after Burns and
keep on the job till ho has landed
the fattest fish in the pugilistic pond.
Ketchel'H present plan is to take to
the mountains and remain there for
several months. He hopes by this
means to add 1 5 or 10 pounds to his
weight and thU3 face Burns in better
form than he ever went againet any
of them up to the present time.
There Is no question hut that Burns
and Ketchel will meet In the ring here
about Christmas or New Years. Right
now it would not appear that there is
a possible chance to get them together
tiny sooner. Burns has a quince pluck
ing engagement on for September 2S
nnd will not sail till about tho middle
of October. He will want at least a
couple of months in this country be
fore he would think of taking pa'rt in
a great bout with Ketchel.

OHIO MAN PITCHES
TWO NO HIT GAMES
For a pitcher to get away with on
no-hlt gains In a season Is an honor.
To pitch two such gamea In a season In
a distinction that not ona twlrler In a
thousand can aver hope to claim.
The feat has been accomplished by
Walter Justus, of the Lancaster. Ohio,
team. In the Ohio State league, and a.i
th season Is less than two-thirds com-
leted, ho iiirv make his reoorrt three
afore tlu playing year ends. The way
he Is going, there seems no good reason
whv he should not turn tha trick.
Justus shut out the Mansfield, Ohio,
team Julv 19. without n hit. and re
peated against Portsmouth, Ohio, Aug
ust 2. In tho former game only three
balls were hit to the outfield, and In
the letter only two. Justus pitched a
ono-hlt game against Lima. Ohio, July
19, and Tiaa worked two two-hit gamoa
and two three-hit K-itnea thla year.
Altogether, this makes a record for
four months' work that Is probably
without a parallel In baseball. Tho av
erage number of hits off hjm per game
la approximately & Vs - j
"Hed" White, another I,anrnster
pitcher, him pitched n no-hlt name, a
one-hit game and three two-hit names.
"Blink" Mock, a third iAncaster twlrler,
a soulhpaw. has pltche.1 a no-hlt game,'
a two-hit game and a three-hit game.
Wherefore It la .not at all remark
able that Lancaster leads the Ohio
State league by a margin of SO points.
NEW YORK OffERS $25,000
P0R RELEASE Of JENNINGS
New York. Aug-- It has leaked out
that Ban B. Johnson, president of (ho
American league, was a recent visitor
to New York. Ban gumshoed Into town
and out again without tipping off his
mission to the scribes. He waa In
conference with President Frank Far-
rell of the New i ork American league
team.
The American team management has
made no statement, nor will It discuss
the matter. But It all lends color to
the statement made by Farrell to a
friend that he was searching for a
new manager, and had an eya on
Hughey Jennings, of tho Detroit Tigers.
Mr. Farrell Is quoted as saying thnt
he would glvo $"f.,000 for Jennings' re
lease. He regards Hughey as the best
club manager on earth and would glad
ly part with the sum named to secure
his contract, now held .by the I)etrolt
club. The conference, it Is stated, had
nmlrrl' to do with this subjects Should
negotlafjjins to secure Jennings fail,
IS mnsugrji ated on retlalHe informa
tion ftiat (If-orge -Stalling will take
hold of, the Yankees next year. It la
further stated that Stalling and John
eon have patched up their grievances
and that the pair have been closeted at
local headquarters within the week.
Of course, until Mr. Farrell decides
to talk there will be many a hap
hazard gueKa as to next year's pilot.
Almost every ono has been suggested
for the position, from Ned Hanion. to
George Davis' hut Htalllngs Is the fav
ored man, since he lias always tnado
good as a loader if his differences
with Johnson aro forgotten.
Ban Is anxious to have a winner In
Gotham. It has been his one greet
ambition since tho American league
started to buck the Polo Grounds club.
The Bad and sorry showing of the Yan
kees this year has been a dreadful
blow to the junior major league. And,
with the Giants In a fair way to win
ning another pennant. It Is frit that If
American league patronage is to he re
tained there nothing but a flag-winner
will do. Johnson has been verv busy
since the slump of the Yankees In in
sisting Mr. Farrell to land material for
his club, but the task Is a hard on" as
none of tho rivals feel like giving any
thing up.

La
Nalnce the (Jaya of "Gladiator"
Pete Browning and famous Ed Dele
hanty. .has such terrific alugglngs been
seen' as that dlnplayed to tha fans 'of
Toledo, O., In the American association
by Charley Hickman. a
Hickman spent some t9n eara In the
major organisations. Ha has worn tho
uniform of every American league club
except Philadelphia and St. IjouIh. -He
used to be a terrific, hitter. But of late
vears he has fallen off In his batting,
and Cleveland recently sold him to To
ledo, where he Is playing left field.
In his first five games with Bill Ar
mour's Toledo "Mudhens." Hickman
went to bat 22 times. Ha made 10
slng-ies and four -two-baggers -a batting
average for the five seme of .Mil,
nnd a "total base" hatting average of
.K18: Figures like these are mighty rare
In baseball, i
On his second day with Toledo the
team stacked up against Columbus for
a four-game series. In that series lllrli
man went to bat 17 times. He mala
IS hits for a total of 15 bases, scored
nine runs himself and drove In eight
others. Toledo won every game, princi
pally on account of Hick's foarful
swatting.
The Toledo fans are the wildest lot
of Indians you ever heard of. They will
buy Hick the city hall dome, if he
wants It.
IT LOOKS LIKE M'GRAW AND
JENNINGS FOR BIG BANNER
The closest bet to a pennant winner
at this angle seems to be Hughey Jen
nings' frlskv Tigers. While St. Louis.
Cleveland and Chicago BtlU possess
what Is technically known aa a linger
ing "look-In," It Isn't likely that any
one of these clubs will ever overhaul the
Detroit nine.
How ate the mlghtv shooting the
chutes these dnys'4 t'hloago, tho city
of the world series championships and
pennants l as slumped from a town with
two pennant clubs to a town that will
be lucky to claim even one.
The champeeu Cubs are battling In
hectic style to regain their waning
laurels but the brand of disaster they
encounter every time the Giants. Pirates
or Phillies come along seems to have
pretty nearly dumped them into the
pickle vat for keeps. Their only show
to get back now Is by walloping the
wadding out of these clubs that havo
had th-4r boats all the season, and It
isn't likely Chance's team will bo able
to turn this trick collectively.
If Detroit wins and the dope Is all
this way the Tigers have any one of
four clubs to meet, and thera Isn't any
forecasting where the final choice will
fall, whether the scrappy H,. Jennlng
will tie up with his old collage chum,
the equally or more so scrappv J. Me
at aw or whether the demon Tv Cobb
will be clued against the equally
demon, H. Wagner.
It is hard to figure which would ba
the most Interesting event to see two
nervy hustling scrappera like McGraw
and Jennings get together 'In a world
eerles duel or to see that two champion
batsmen of two great league the two
best swatsmen In the universe, right it
out with the bludgeon. The queer turn
about this latter event is that both
Cobb and Wagner have figured In wor!1
series affairs and both fell down to
such an exten,t that their respective
ball clubs were'' badly trimmed. If De
troit and Pittsburg should meet the re
sult would more than likely hinge uuon
the effectiveness of Cobb's or Wagner's
batting. A slump by either would come
fairly near crimping that club's outlook.
If both were goin right thcre'd be an
exhibition of fireworks that no previ
ous world's combat ever witnessed before.
