NoPs AND DUNN.
Two of Hanlon's Reliable Pitchers
Are Given Their Release.

ST. Louis, Aug. 10.-Including Wey-
hing, Hanlon has but five pitchers with
him on the trip. He left Jack Dunn and
Jerry NOpS at home, and yesterday he
mailed them their releases.
1t is pretty tough on Dunn. His work
early in the season placed Brooklyn at
the head of the procession, and in doing
so he lost his effectiveness. NOpS has
no excuses, as he has been given plenty
of chances, but refuses to take care of
himself. In condition, Jerry is one of
the best slab workers in the business.
Dunn's dismissal recalls the fact that
Hanlon is the hardest manager in the
league on his pitchers. He keeps his
twirlers right at it as long as they will
last. and when they show the least sign
of losing their effectiveness they are
handed their walking papers. It is worth
twice much money to pitch for Han
lon than for any other manager in the
league.
McGinnity will be the next to go. The
Springfield boy is a hard worker. He
puts his whole heart and soul in the
game, and when a contest is finished in
which he has participated he is all out
to the last ounce
Jay Hughes, the Californian, had a
hard season under Hanlon and positively
refused to sign this year unless given a
large increase in salary.

alysis of the work done in the sectional
series is in order and interesting.
On the first trip west by the eastern
clubs the west won a bare majority, q
out of 81. On the second trip west by
the fasteners the west did much better,
winning 80 out of "a. The history of the
third trip is now being made
On the first trip east by the western
clubs, the east won 81 out of So This was
a much better showing for the eastern
clubs than the VESTS first showing at
home. On the second trip, just finished,
the east won 80, lost II and tied 2. This
is only a shade better than the west did
while receiving the east the second time.
The percentage of games won for the
west at home on the second series was
.704 and the casts percentage in this
second at home series was 1872
Chicago had the best record at home
for each series for the west, and Boston
had the best the first time in the east,
and New York in the second series If
the west continues the at home improve
ment the record at the close of this pres
ent series will see closer race and mar
rover margin of lead, with the possibili-
ty OF a western club pushing the leader.

sponge in the sixteenth round to prevent
their man from being knocked out.
Up to the tenth round McFadden sue
ceeded IN landing some fearful right
hand swings over McPartland's kidneys,
and these so weakened the Kid that he
went to the floor in the tenth round and
took the count before he got up At the
close of the fifteenth round McFadden
swung left and right to the body and
repeated both blows to the head, sending
Mcfarland again to the floor just as the
bell sounded. Mcfarland was groggy
as he came up for the sixteenth round,
and McFadden rushed him. flooring him
with body blow. Mcfarland was very
weak when he regained his feet, and he
ciinched to save himself from going
down again. McFadden beat him off
and would undoubtedly have knocked
out Mcfarland had not the latter's sec
onds thrown up the sponge.

Late Tuesday night Mr.. Smith re-

the stable, where Gibson had his stall
When he arrived he found the gallant
colt bleeding at the nose and mouth,
just as had His Excellency earlier in
the day. A glance was only necessary
to tell that the colt would pass away
unless the hemorrhage could be stopped.
A veterinary was hastily summoned,
and after working until daylight this
morning the hemorrhage was stopped
and the colt was considered out of dan
ger.
Mr.. Smith said: "Of course it is no
the assertion that neglect of the veter-
mary surgeon killed His Excellency.
After he was fired he was not given the
proper care, and had L not engaged an

Really Delightful.

Wellington, Aug. 10.-Joe Thralls, H.
r. Wightman, Elmer Layne, Joe Piatt,
and D. S. Rose have returned from Cape
Nome, where they went May 8. Harry
and John Thralls of Lawrence. nephews
of Joe Thralls, and Jack Britton, and
Gus Hamel returned with the party to
Seattle. Britton arrived home late yes
terday afternoon and Hamel is on his
way. They and the two Thralls boys
separated from the main party at Seat
tie, taking different routes home. Thralls,
Wightman, Layne, Piatt and Rose came
by way of Salt Lake City.
Those who remained at Nome are Ed
Herring, Al Bellies, Emery Jacobs, Hiram
Hitchcock and his friend, Mr.. Martin,
and Ralph Allen. They intended going
to Anvil creek on a prospecting tour, and
will return home before winter sets in
in earnest.
D. S. Rose said, in reply to questions:
Cape Nome is all right. There is plenty
of gold there. You can't prospect any
where without striking a shine But the
beach claims are all taken up for -125
for 40 miles inland is staked off The
claims We're staked in the snow last win
ter. In order to work them, you have
got to give the owner one-half or con-
test his right, which means trouble. The
mining laws are unsatisfactory. The
climate there is really delightful 1 was
surprised to find it so. There is plenty
Of gold at Cape Nome, but it will take
hard work and some machinery to get it.
I accompanied the party to Thralls'
claims on Shovel creek but the claims
did not prospect satisfac torily.''

Ethelbert Makes Wonderful Race
With Poor Start.

Saratoga. Aug. 10-Kinley Mack won
the Beverwyck handicap from a good
field Thursday afternoon, but the victory
was in sense a fiuke, for Ethelbert was
almost left standing at the post, and at
the end was only beaten by a head.
When the flag fell with the Brighton cup
winner many lengths in the rear of the
field storm of Kisses expressed the dis
approval of the spectators.
The race was run on a track exactly
suiting Kinley Mack, it having dried out
just enough to make it dead. There were
six starters, Charentus. Mr.. Jersey.
Rockton and Martimas comprising the
remainder of the field Ethelbert opened
up at even money, but lack of support
sent his price to 232 to 1 at post time.
Kinley Mack opened 10 to 1, and was
played down to 10 to l, while Martimas,
whose opening price was to l, was
backed down to 211 to 1, Rockton clos
ing at the same price. The pace was not
fast one, and this helped Ethelbert to
make up his big gap. Martimas, secured
third money, a length away. The mile
was run in 1:41.

to fight, he would not agree to anything
but 100 pounds, weigh at the ringside
This settled all negotiations for the time

match his man with McGovern at the
weights named by Harris. The latter ex-
pected, however, that the little champion

JESSIE MORRISON CASE.
Attorneys May Try to Prove Self
Defense at Second Hearing.

Wichita, Aug. 10.-Attorneys for Jes-
sic Morrison, the ElDOrado woman
charged with numbering Mrs. Olin Cas-
tie, were here this week looking over
the woman's department in the county
jail where it is proposed to confine
Miss Morrison if she is held without
bail for final hearing.
Her second preliminary hearing COM
mences today. All of the evidence will
be reheard by Judge Randall. 1t is re-
ported that her attorneys will have
Miss Morrison on the stand in her own
behalf to prove that she killed Mrs.
Castle in self defense.
The sentiment is bitter against her,
and it is doubted if the trial can pro-
coed at ElDorado Since she was held
by Justice A1Iebach for murder in the
first degree and was granted a second
preliminary hearing she has been kept
in ElDorado under guard where no one
could see her. She is confident of ac-
quittal, so her friends report.
