o'sr,en Defeats .Twlnr Sullivan.

Boston. Dec. 2S.-After fast clean
bout. which went the limit Of Is
rounds. the first 10 Of which were
marked by the aggressive work of his
opponent. Jack O'Brien. Of Philadel
phla. was given the decision over
Jack C"Twin") Sullivan, of Cambridge
before the Criterion Athletic Club. Sui
livan was the aggressor from the first
round. and O'Brien's fancy leads were
blocked and countered prettily. The
tactics Of O'Brien were almost entirely
defensive up to the ninth round. wher
Sullivan's right eye was closed by z
well-directed blow. After that O'Brier
had little difficulty in reaching him. In
the 18th round. however, O'Brien re
ceived a similar injury. and the mer
were again on equal terms. In tn,
18th round there was a warm mix-up.

EXCHANGE OF PITCHERS
New York Trades Tanneaill For Tom
tiuahes Of Roston.

The New York American League Club
has completed the first big baseball deal
of The year m uhc American League.
Jesse Tanuehili has been traded 20 the
Boston Americans for Long Tom
hughes. Boston has been after a good
eft-handed pitcher for some time, and
IL Tannehill shows some of his pittsburg
form next season the Bostons Will have
a great pitching stan. Last season how
ever, Tannehul did not uphold his past
reputation. aud based on this form, the
trade for Hughes seems TO be an even-up
affair. Hughes is an erratdc pitcher, but
with plenty of work he may show better
results than he did with Boston last sea-
son.
New York may keep Hughes, but use
him in some osher qrade before the sea-
son opens. Secretary Farrell, talking about
Tho deal. says:
whether we viii keep Hughes or not ]
cannot eay. for we may be able TO make
him figure as a factor in a trade Of great
er value to US. We have also secured
d Third Basenan Unglaub. who played great
bah for Milwaukee last season. Com
iskey and Collins were anxious TO get this
man, but GufGth went In ahead of them.

an oncr OF $500 cash ITO Angus. OF De-

he could not afford 70 sen any Of his

Mr. FARRELL also said; "Thero appears

action taken at the meeting on the foul--
strike rule. 1t was not abolished. as has

"sy" sanborn, OF Chicago. comments on
the foul strike rule as follows; "The at
utude OF the American League toward
the foul strike rule is not likely 10 pro-
duce dangerous friction between the rival
leagues, as many seem to fear. II the
Joint rules committee, composed Of Hart,
Ianlon ana Tieischmann for the old
league, and Of Comiskey, IStfoy and Far
reli for tho younger league, cannot sue
cessfully solve the problem they can at
least reach an amicable agreement 10 dis
lagrce. There ds nothing in the new ma
tional agreement which says tho leagues
must play under the same rules 1T merely
provides for a joint meeting Of rules COM
mitteas to prepare and promulgate play
ing rules. II these committees are unable
to agree on uniform rules that is a prob
lem ito be solved afterward. The national
agreement provides for no such emerg-
eucy. and the emergency cannot dherefore
be made o. violation of the agreement. q"
That sounds very much like an opening
crack for tho destruction Of the uniform
code in case a deadlock occurs.
A baseball authority lately figured up the
chances there are in the game for a
player Of the batting team to be put out T.
The result will perhaps surprise the aver
age "fan" who has never tried TO figure
l.t out. The Nst of twenty-five distinct
ways Is as follows: The batsman can be
put out by fly Clutch Of a lair ban. He
can be pu- out by a similar catch OF a
foul ball. lie can be put out on three
lcalio,l strikes lie can be pnt out by
lsteppng outside OF his position to strike
at a bail. He can be put out for hinderlne
the catcher from fielding ball. He can be
lput cut BY his bat accidentally batting
the bail to fair ground. The batsman can
be put out on caldsd strikes afler lwo
'Ioul strikes" are called as follows: By
q catch of a foul or ny BAIL by the bunt-
l.ng ot Tho ball 10 foul ground. By strik-
ling at a bail which touches his person.
BY standing outside the linas OF his po-
ls.tion. ami, therefore. not ready to strike
at tho ball when a fair bail is delivered
AS a baserunner the batsman can be pui
out es follows: BY running off the paah-
way from hcfne plate 10 first. BY beine
hit by a fairly b1Jtod ban while a base
runner. BY failing to touch first base
after a fair hit before the bau. In the

What the Tossers Are ooins During the

''Now that it's all over" said Tom Lof-
tus. Il want 10 make o. few remlrks about
that foul-strilte rule. Remarks from me
are specially pertinent ] think, in Wow
OF the fact taal am generally supposed
to have had a good deal to do with seitins
the rule fair triad BY the American
League last season.
Il did think the rule worth q try-out, but
cannot see tt now. ana was glad to
vote for its abrogation. II may have the
effect Of hustling the gime along in time.
and If certainly helps the umpircs, but
IT has not only hunt the batiors in their
averages and in all styles Of hitting. but
1t has been detrimental to the fielding. has
hurt base running. and has qucored the
hst-aad-run game. II there IS man on
first and he goes down lto second, you
want 70 hit the ball, boost him TO third.
and if possible hit into vacant territory,
in order to reach first yourself. Bus you
hit at It; you tip of a foul; back goes the
runner, you have a strike called, and the
pitcher has you up In the air. The nerv-
business which besets both runner and bait
ter under these discouraging circumstan-
ces is enough to make anybody tired.
"Yes, as far as the American League
is concerned. the rule has had a fair
chance, it has proved frost, aud we arc
glad 70 see 1t go.
