il would not be surprising TO see the cir
cult cut down TO ten clubs Baltimore
and Cleveland have not been playing to
enough money at home to keep UP stock
in a banana stand They are both dead
cards. II is not because they do not occu-
py a good position in the race, for both
clubs are well up in the first division and
both clubs contain some of the stars of
the profession.
Their decline can be attributed TO but
one thing, and that is that home patrons
have become tired of their rowdyism and
are disgusted with the game. New York
was beginning TO feel the effects of the
same kind of work, but Freedman was
sharp enough to foresee the finish and
stopped the tide by the engagement of
Anson. There has been an official leak
at Boston which tells how Tenney, the
scrappy collegian, was given a clubhouse
call-down after being Kissed by the spec
tators for an attempted rowdyism.

Joe Goddard and Peter Maher will
meet in New York for the third time on
the night of Tuesday, July .. This bout
will pack the house from wall 10 wall
and from floor 10 ceiling. Maher Is one
of the most unfortunate of lighters Just
when his prospects for attaining the
championship seem brightest, he gets
set back and ne has to begin all over
again / think he viii prepare for the
coming contest as he never did before
He must realize that unless ne defeats
Goddard this time he will sink back into
the ranks of the third-raters 10 whom a
chance at a thousand-dOllar purse is
bit of good fortune akin 10 that OF
hard-up Klondiker, who strikes a big
paying claim. The Hibernian element has
stood faithfully by Maher, but even il
is beginning 10 waver. Said one of its
members, a well known horse trainer, 10
me the other day. Hes an in and outer
be Jabers. III give him wan more chance
If he doesn't bate that big Australian the
next time they meet I'll scratch him of
my books" Goddard feels sure that he
can take Maher's measure any time they
meet He can stand as much pounding
as an anvil and he declares that Peter
has supersensitive jaw. He is certain
that he can find the point of Maher's jaw
good and hard before the Irish champion
can weaken him. That Maher is very vul-
nerable 10 jaw jolts seem 10 be undenta-
BILE. Fitzsimmons demonstrated II in
Mexico and Goddard has twice proved it
Steve O'Donnell came within an ace of
putting Peter 10 sleep with jolt on the
