WHARF RATS
ARE TO GATHER

There is trouble along the wRarves.
Captain Riley of the Hackfeld wharves
has for some time commanded an ag-
gregation of baseball fans known as the
Wharf Rats. The team has been rather
a successful one so other wharf rat
managers along the front have their
axes out for Riley. Captain Baker
passed the word around the Oceanic
wharf yesterday morning that he would
head a fanking movement against the
Riley forces at Kapiolani Park at nine
o'clock on Sunday morning. Riley says
that Baker is simply green with envy
and that he will certainly have suff1-
cient force at the park to annihilate the
Oceanic rats.

Friend Bill:

ever seen in Los Angeles. Bill, I should

rounds. | surprised the public by the
fight but they did not give me any credit
before the fight and now they don't want
to say that I should have had draw.
| won as much as Sullivan, but he was
touted before the fight by the papers.
We fight again pretty soon and then you
watch how the decision will go. Bill,
let him hit me too much but he could
not hurt me. But it looked bad. The
next time he won't hit me SO easy. l
