with New York only two poiutu be

extra biisu hitting, due to the pres
ence of Wagner on Jjie club. Wagiiur
lends the sluggers of the oil cult, but
LudurtiM, of Philadelphia, is giving
him a fight for the honors.
Alexander keeps up hit renin rkulilo
work for the Phillies, and top the
twirlers.
Cobb is still the class of the Amer
ican League batters, and tops all of
his competitors. Jackson aud Craw
ford follow in order, with Lajnlu
chwe behind.
Detroit has ousted tint Athletics from
the lead in club butting, one point
separating them. Both ure hitting
over .HOO, which in remarkable. The
Atlilutics lend in long-distuiiee hit
ting, whilu t'olilt in thcyduggcr of the

both lead Gregg in percentages of
games won, but have not pitched in
as many contests; und Krnpp has
boosted his figures to a rciitcutiiblc
showing. Both are the leading twirl
ers of the Nnpi., an Kalkeuberg has

An to NuIhoii's statement that a

that the limiting I gitvo the Buttler

with his subseiiueiit knockout nt (he

I uiu far too sensible to talk about
the vlitiiiiploiiKhlp nt present, hut I
am sure of my ability uut only to de
feat Nelson, but that I will surely
stop him before the limit of ten
rounds. Nelson's marvellous Maui

him n fkliter lu the pnsl and now
Unit he hits lout thnt lie has nothing
left but his courage to depend on.
"I only wish thnt Jimmy Brltt was
the only man between in nud the

culous to even bo considered."
lu such a manner did Battling Nel
son Hiukc reply to the Htntuiifnt of
Jimmy Brltt that ho would surely
stop him within tho ten round limit
of their coining fight lu New York.
Tho Battler refused to consider the
statement or Brltt lu a serious light.
"Brltt thinks that I huvo lost my

Morau gave me a henvy beating imt
I was not In condition. Since that

Nelson received n telegram this
morning from tho promoters of his

In return that August 2t would do
