WHOISTO BLAME?
Mr.. Curtis Says Mr.. Bailey Is
and Vica Versa.
Each Says Other Is Responsible
For Early Fight.
MUCH HARD WORK.
Curtis Seems to Have AdVan-
tage Of Organization.
What II. A. Lows Candidacy
Really Means.

Charles Curtis and his friends claim
to have made an effort to keep the First
congressional district fight in allegiance
this year. but the activity of the oppo-
sition has compelled them to go to work
and they are making the best of the
means which they have at their COM
mand.
Both Mr.. Bailey and Mr.. Curtis con-
tend that the fight should have been
put off another year, but they are now
both as busy as they can be seeing the
people in the district in their respective
interests. Bailey is charged by the
Curtis supporters with the responsible
ity of inaugurating the trouble which
the district is now having. However
he claims not to have commenced his
campaign until the movements on the
checker board in the hands of the Cur
tbs forces compelled him to do so. Mr..
Bailey says he is merely defending his
own interests; the Curtis men claim
Bailey is premature in making a hght
for an office when he has not yet drawn
one cent of pay for the Office to which
he has been elected, congressman at
large.
While the Bailey forces, headed by
Mr.. Bailey himself have been making a
personal campaign they have not yet
effected an organization by which they
propose to add strength to the side Of
the controversy which they represent.
On the other hand the Curtis forces
are busy and have selected the men
for whom they will ask support in addi-
ton to the support which they them
selves seek for the present congress-
man These gentlemen are as follows:
Delegate at large from the district
to the national Republican convention
NJ. A. Low.
District delegates-Judge J. S. Emery
of Nemaha county and David w.
Mulvane of Shawnee county.
The Curtis forces admit the selection
of these men to help make the cam
paign for the places mentioned but
they refuse to explain what the motive
is. The ticket or slate, has set the poll
ticians in the opposition camp specu-
lating in every direction but even the
wise Mr.. Leland does not fully under
stand it. He is inclined to fear that the
entrance of Mr.. Low into the campaign
for this place may mean a fight to re-
tire Mr.. Leland himself from the ma
tional committee.

Sharkey In Better Condition
Than Ever Before,
For His Coming Fight With
Champion Jeffries.
HE is HARD AT WORK.
Some Think the Sailor Will

Jeffries Considers Him Easier

HE is HARD AT WORK.

New York, Oct. THE sailor pugilist,
Tom Sharkey, and the champion pugtlist
of the world, Jim Jenries, are now both
in training for their battle for the cham
pionship Of the world, which is to take
place in New York the latter part of this
month.
Jeffries is at his old quarters at Asbury
Park, while Sharkey is at New Dorp, /. /.
From all accounts this will sure enough
be battle between well-trained giants
and neither man is to have wa4koNer;,
Sharkey is said to be in the best condl-
ton he has ever been in for a prize pat
tie. He is said to be thoroughly hardened
He is also reported to have lost much or
his aWkWardness. He was badly muscle
bound when he began to box. But now now
he surprises the clever men who spar with
him by his stiffness.
Sharkey believes in hard work. He box

VII WHAT JEFFRIEs SAYS.
Training is simply pleasure to me at
this time of the year. I feel as though L

and box for ten hours at stretch OF
course, I dom, for need but little hard
preparation for my coming contest with
Sharkey- 1 regard him as much less dan
gerous opponent than FitzsimmOns-
Nevertheless, I will take no chances,
and will be in the best possible condition
when 1 step into the ring to face the
sailor.
I am now down to 30 pounds. and will
not reduce my avOirdupOis much more
could easily do it if necessary, by taking
few hard runs along the Long Branch
road.
I am not afraid of being affected by
the cold at the COney Island clubhouse.
That sort of temperature suits me, and
will add 10 per cent to my chances
I will say, for the benefit of my friends
that / have studied out a system OF de-

believe, Sharkey is noted
at Loeb Arbor is the best, I think that
could have been selected near New York.
The salt air is a constant bracer and
makes me feel as though i never wanted
to go to bed. When i get through with
Sharkey think 1 Will give Peter Maher
the first chance.
Mccoy, too, can. have a go, but I will
tend to adopt the old policy of John L.

class a chance to meet me, so long as

ALL CLUBS MADE MONEY;
President Nick Young Says This Has
Been q Prosperous Ball Season.


New York, Oct president Nick
Young, of the National league, today
made a statement that will surprise
many persons. In an interview he said:
Every club in the league has made
money this season. Even the poor, un-
fortunate Cleveland combination has
come out ahead, in spite of all the diff
cultieS it has encountered at home. 1t
is true some of the clubs have not been
the money-makers they were expected
to be, for instance, Cincinnati, because
the team failed to come up to expecta,-
tions. Chicago, in spite of the disap-
pointing showing made by that team,
has made big money this year, if the
unofficial reports which reach me are
reliable. New York has not reaped a
harvest of dollars, owing to local trOu-
bles, with which the baseball world has
been made familiar by the newspaper
Of that city. Notwithstanding the ups
and downs of that club, Mr.. Freedman's S
balance sheet will probably show
good round sum on the right side of the
ledger after paying all expenses. Balti-
more has been the surprise of the sea-
son, not only as a winner but as a
mOney-maker.r Boston, Philadelphia,
Pittsburg, Brooklyn, Louisville and
Washington have also cleared hand
some profits upon the money invested
during the present year. Under the
circumstances, there is no reason to be-
lieve that any of the magnates are 60
ing to sacrifice their holdings simply
to verify the predictions of baseball

DelgaddoBrings Twelve ThousandDol
lars in Private Sale.

Lexington, Ky, Oct 7.-Bowerman n
Bros. have sold to Dr. J. c. Mccoy, of
Kirkwood, Del, the 6ve-year-Old brown
stallion Delgaddo Gull brother to
Boreal, sire Of Boralma, winner of the
Kentucky FUturity), by Bow Bells out
of Rosy Morn, by Alcantara, for $4,000.
This horse is green He has never
raced. After he had sold Boralma to
Thomas W. LaWtOn for S17, 900, Dr. Nc
Coy went after Delgaddo. I wanted
one of the same family he said 1t
is good odds. BOralma has proved a
splendid investment for me- bought
him from Scott Newman at Louisville
two weeks ago, paying $4,000. Since
he has won the Matron stakes at Louis
vile for me. That was $4,000. Now I
have sold him for $1,000 making a
clear profit of 81, 900, besides some odd
pennies out of the pool box. If Delgaddo
does quite as well next year will be
satisfied

horse in panicky times four years ago.

loss to understand the report that this
IS a Burton-CurtiS combination. That
the two men will rely upon the ar
rangement which has been made to
carry the district in their interest.
Last week the State Journal publish
ed the fact that Mr.. Low would be a
representing the First district and in
timated at the time that a fight for
the place now held by Leland on the
national committee might be made by
Mr.. Lows friends.
One of the Curtis managers exploits
the fact that this is an agreement be
tween Curtis and Burton, but the
friends of Mr.. Baker decline to accept
this statement as a fact.
One of the principal reasons is that
the indications point to the fact that at
the proper time Mr.. Low will be for the
reelection of Mr.. Baker. If this be
true then Mr.. Low has not gone into a
Burton com bination because he is not
the kind of a man who says one thing
and does something else. So far as in
tegrity and fair dealing go there is not
a man in Kansas who has a higher rep
utation than Mr.. Low. The trouble is
Mr.. Low keeps his own counsel. When
he is ready to make a move he makes
it and he does not ask the permission
of any man to do it.
Judge Emery's selection as q. candi-
date for delegate is a bold step into the
enemy's camp. Emery was judge of
the district court, the position now be-
ing held by w. l. Stuart Emery was
a popular man at home, but the pOliti-
clans, headed by Mr.. Leland, defeated
him for denomination after a fight
which threatened to disrupt the party
in that judicial district and was re-
sponsible for the bitterness against
Leland which some of the papers of
the district are now expressing. There
are Republicans in Nemaha county
who think Mr.. Emery was not fairly
treated and they are ready to do battle
for him.
This is not the first move made in
the enemy's stronghold by Curtis. He

MEDIos DEFEAT OTTAWA.
Two Hours and Five Min utes of Play
With the Score 10 to s.

Kansas City, Oct. Tt took the
Medics two hours and five min
utes to defeat the ottawa uni
versity foot ball team in two thirty
minute halves at Exposition park yes
terday afternoon, by a score of 16 to 5.
The balance of the time was consumed
in wrangling over rules and interpreta-
tions of rules, and in allowing fallen
gladiators to recover breath. From the
standpoint of the spectators there were
but a few interes 1g moments in the
game, and there W so many kicks of
one kind and anOUner that even the
players were more or less dissatisfied
with the contest.
Ottawa won the toss and took the
south goal. Holman kicked to Barnett,
who returned ten yards. The MedicS
got the ball on a tumble, after a wran-
gle which lasted some time. One down
went without a, gain, and then Heller
got around the right end until he was
within a yard of the goal line. He
dropped the ball, and Poorman, who
recovered it, fell over the line for a
touch down, after four minutes of play.
Holman kicked out, and Lewis, who
heeled, failed to make the goal.
Gill kicked off to Moreley, who came
back fifteen yards. After a gain of
twenty yards on three downs, the
Medics lost the ball a tumble. OF
tawa worked it back thirteen yards on
four downs and then lost it on fun
bic. Heller, POorman and Moreley
made gains of fifteen, eight and five
yards, and then Ottawa took the ball
on downs.
The Kansas men could not gain much,
and by a great play Ewing went
through the line and took the ball away
from Lambertson.
In a dozen downs the AIedics took the
ball almost to the goal line, and in a
close formation Moreley was pushed
over for a touch down. Lewis kicked
the goal, making the score IL to o.,
where is remained for the rest of the
first half.
The other touch down of the Medics
was made with but a minute to play
in the second half Porter, who had
taken the place of Robinson, who in
turn had replaced Moreley, got around
the left end for a nice run of twenty
FIVE yards, and on the next play Heller
went through right tackle for fifteen
yards and a touchdown.
The line-un was.

dropped into Troy few days ago and
1T is claimed was given a warm recep-
tion. The influential Republicans met
him on the street and expressed pleas
ure at seeing him and many of them
promised him support. The reception
accorded Curtis both in Trop and in
the surrounding country, surprised Cur
tis' friends immensely and they are
Overjoyed to know that Curtis stands
so well in the home of the man who is
making it his life work to retire him
from congress.
The Bailey men figure that If Curtis
can be defeated next summer he will be
compelled to retire to private life. They
claim that in the event the next legis-
lature is Republican, Shawnee county
will be put back in the Fourth district.
If Curtis is then not in congress they
believe he will not have another oppor-
tunfty to go to Washington, provided
Bailey and his friends can Wrest from
him the nomination next year.
The selection of the candidates for
the places as delegates whatever it may
mean is responsible for an awakening
in the Leland camp, the like of which
has not been seen for many months.

Nineteenth Round.

New York, Oct. George McFadden
Of this city knocked out George (Kid(
Lavigne, ex-light weight champion of
the world, in the nineteenth round, be-
fore the New Broadway Athletic club
last night. They met at 1873 pounds and
put up a fight which was as sensational
as it was prolific hard hitting and
clever ring work. McFadden's blocking
of the Kids rushes and leads was phe-
nomenal, and toward the end of the
bout he had the Saginaw boxer very
raw and sore. At the opening Lavigne
was the favorite, but after the twelfth
round odds of 100 to 80 were freely Of
fered on McFadden.
Lavigne was well battered, and sew

what had happened to him. McFadden
