LOOKS LIKE BROOKLYN.
Pittsburg, Philadelphia and Boston
Race for Second Place.

Boston, Aug. 21.-The league race is
now twO-thirds over, with Brooklyn a
probable winner, says Tim Murname.
The championship will be won this sea-
son on ninety games or less. To do this
Brooklyn will have to break a little bet
ter than even, and having most of the
games on their home grounds, it is even
money and better that they win out.
Pittsburg will make a great fight for
second place, which would be a grand
performance for the Dfyfuss crowd. but
they have a big contract on hand to
land as good as second, as Philadelphia,
and even Boston, have an eye on that
place, and both teams have a long
stretch of games on the home grounds,
Boston having thirty-one straight games
after next Wednesday, four of them
postponed. Chicago has managed to
keep in the first division most of the
season, but will have a bigger contract
ahead.
AS ST. Louis and Cincinnati come east
again, their chances for the first division
are very slim, indeed, so that it looks
like Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Boston and
Pittsburg for the first division with
Chicago, ST. Louis, Cincinnati and New
York bringing up the rear. New York
will make a big effort to get out of the
last place, and may succeed, as they
are not far away from '-Cincy." L look
for the Boston team to make a good
finish as usual, unless Nichols and Willis

ROPE FOR BRElDENTHAL
Wild-Eyed Osborne Man Threat
ened to Make Trouble.

John W. Breidenthal, the fusion nom
inee for governor, made trip through
northwestern Kansas, during which he
escaped a threatened hanging; rode 40
miles in rain and hail storm in an
open buggy; opened new bank; made
a political speech and Ingalls-like round
ed up his traducers and gave them a
lecture they will not soon forget.
Mr.. Breidenthal started out the first
of the week on a trip as bank commits
sioner He completed the opening of a
bank at Stockton. On the train he re-
ceived telegram to the effect that it
was very important that he should stop
at Osborne. This he did, not knowing
what was in the air, but thinking that
some financial interests demanded his
attention.
Hang him. was the reception Breid-
enthal got when he alighted from the
train.
This stunned the commissioner and
aspirant to the governors chair but he
braced up and faced the enemy.
The individual who was rampant on
the subject of Immediate execution was
finally apprehended. He was one of the
men who wasS caught in the failure of
the Topeka Loan association and he
made the charge that Breidenthal had
closed the association for political rea-
sons
An Osborne man who is a personal
friend of the bank commissioner, recent
ly visited Topeka He was shown the
books OF the company by the local sec
rotary. He returned to Osborne and
made the statement that the company
was solvent and had been closed by
Breidenthal because of political reasons
This was the cause of the thirst for
Breidenthal's blood on the part of the
man who was urging the community to
rise up and mob Breidenthal on the spot.
All of these details were explained to
Breidenthal after he reached the hotel.
He said
Il want to see both of these men,"
The person who had first circulated
the report that the Topeka Loan associ-
alton had ben closed by Breidenthal on
account of political prejudice was
brought into Credentials presence un-
awareS.
Webb McNan says: 1.-THE fur did fly.
I'll tell you. The way Breiedenthal did
take that monkey down the line was a
sight worth seeing. The offender shook
like a leaf while Breidenthal went after
him"
The offender apologized and attempted
to crawl out of the responsibility for
causing uprising to execute the bank
commissioner
1t was afterwards discovered that the
men who demanded the sacrifice of the
life of the bank commissioner and the
one who had made the sweeping asser-
ton concerning the closing of the loan
company had been working together
for the company and had been dividing
the commissions which were paid by the
company.

he had gone a long mile on bad track
and paced one of the greatest heats in the
books. He had done it so easily at the fin
ish that he was expected to repeat the
performance, in which case the race would
be over it being best two in three heats in

Then McHenry was cheered to the echo.
Every one expected him to win the next
heat, and in the betting Anaconda was
made a % to 10 favorite over the field.
But once more Searchlight upset all cal
culations. In the fourth heat Mccarthy
took him away faster than ever before,
determined that this time Anaconda
should not get the lead. Bogash was also
willing TO fight for the start, and before
the quarter pole was reached he was at
Anaconda's wheel, with SearchliSht along
side of him. AS the trio swung into the
backstretch they got on exactly even
terms and a blanket would have covered
the lot. The grand stand broke out in
great cheer at the sight, and old race
goers congratulated each other on being
there. There was not the slightest change
in the positions of the three untl round
ing the upper turn, when Bogash fell
back only little but enough to snow
he was out of 1T. Then Searchlight made
his great finish. Mccarthy did not touch
him with the whip, for the stallion re-
scnts that but he held him steady and
encouraged him with voice and bit. Half
way home he was on even terms with
Anaconda, having lost considerable in
making a wide drive to avoid the soft
spot next the pole. and in few more
strides he was in the lead The wire was
reached in 2:O7s4. and the best race ever
paced was over.

New York. Aug. 21.-With the run

not less than $4,000 gross, on Saturday
of this week at the Sheepshead Bay race
course. the opening of the Coney Island

coRBETTs CHALLENGE.
Willing to Bet That He Can Whip
Fitz.


New York, Aug. 21-Jim Corbett would
like to have a match with his old time
rival and conqueror, Bob F'itzsimmons,
and offers to wager $4,000 at even
money that he viii defeat the latter in
another battle.
This was the substance of the ex-
champions conversation with a few
friends after he had read a statement
attributed to Fftzsimmons to the effect
that he was a second rater.
- Corbett is busy preparing for his com
ing encounter with Kid Mccoy, which
takes place at Madison Square Garden
on August 80, but he found time after
his workout at Bath Beach today to re-
ply to Fitzsimmons' statement and
make known his desire to get another
chance at the lanlSy Cornishman.
Corbett said 4 see that Fitzsimmons
says Mccoy and myself are, second
raters. Wen, if he really thinks so, 1
will give him chance to fight second
rater and at the same time win a good
sized wager
..F7itzsiInmons evidently believes that
I am easy game, but don't see how he
figures it out.
''Jeffries knocked him out in eleven
rounds, and l made the champion look
like a novice for tWenty-three rounds. If
1 can beat a man for twenty-three
rounds who stopped F'itzsimmons in
eleven, 1 think L have the call on the
latter.
There is no doubt in my mind that I
can defeat Fitzsimmons at any time,
and just to show that l have confidence
in my ability l will bet him $40, 900 on
the result of a battle between us. The
fight can take place any time agreeable
to Fitzsimmons This proposition will
hold good, whether Mccoy defeats me or
not.
If there is one man in the ring whom
1 believe 1 can whip, it is FitZSimmons. "
