COAT LAPEL BUTTONS
FOR THE CHAMPIONS.

August Hermann, as chairman OF base
balls national commission. which has 1or-
mulated rules for the playing OF the world
championship games, has decided upon
coat lapel button as the emblem to be pre-
scented to the members of the team winning
the championship. From monetary stand
point alone the buttons will be valuable
as each will be actually worth more than
$50. Aside from that. they ought to be OF
almost inestimable value to the players who
are fortunate enough to get them. There
will be but twenty buttons. 1t looks at
present as If either the New York Ma
tionals or the Philadelphia Americans Will
be the worlds champions AS each team
has within one or two players OF total
twenty, almost the entire supply will be
exhausted. 1t is likely the one or two that
may be remaining Will be the property of
the national commission. to be kept as
sort of memento Of the present very sue
cessful year of base ball and also as
token of the first world championship con-
test ever played under rules authorized by
base balls supreme authority. The button
will be preserved along with the terms of
agreements, rules and laws that make the
commission possibility. The buttons will
be solid gold, diamond studded; the en-
blem a ball and two bats. In appearance
they will be beauties. The jeweler is go
ing to attempt to produce something that
he can take pride in. knowing that. before
winter mas set IN, the precious buttons Will
be scattered to all parts of the country, to
be examined by thousands upon thousands
of base ball fans, friends and acquaintance
of the men who are members of the cham
pion team Mr.. Hermann, to whom was
left all the details for the championship
series, was at first in doubt as to whether
badge or button would be preferab BILE as a
gift to the players. He finally decided
upon the button. 1t is less liable to loss,
because 1t can be fastened into the button
hole of a coat, while the badge would have
TO be held on by pin arrangement and
could easily be lost stolen. If any one
can steal button from a coat lapel he
ought to be entitled to it. In addition the
button Is the most conspicuous, can al
ways be shown withoU the owner unfast-
ening his coat and displaying the vest,
where badge would be worn. Further. a
button Is all metal and not easily broken.
badge would be more subject to being
broken. The owner can also wear the but
ton at all times. much a member Of the
Elks can wear his Elk button, without be-
ing subject to the remark that he is wear

Jack. but slightly damaged. to the Browns
and get his money back. The New York
manager loses his trading stamps, but he
does not care for that.
Powell leaves today for st. Louis and
his old job with the Browns. He did well
enough in New York. but his interests are
conferred in the Missouri town. He owns
a Juice store there. and no one can put
fresh crackers in the bowl and cheese on
the plate like the proprietor. How much
Of the $4,000 Griffith gets back was not
stated.
Harry Howell who figured as trading
stamps in the big deal of two years ago.
remains with the Browns. and he and
Powell will play together the rest of the
season. All McAleer need do is sponge
Jack and press him little and he will
pitch as well as new. Powell likes st.
Louis and does good work there.
Some time ago Griffith asked for waiv-
ers on Powell, but st. Louis held out. Nc
Aleer wanted Jack. and as the pitcher was
anxious to return. the deal was fixed up.
Though Powell did not do as well as ex-
pected in New York. he is good for several
years yet and should soon get going in his
old town.

CHAMPION CANS
NOW AFTER NELSON.

BALTIMORE. Md. September 11.-Joe
Cans. the lightweight champion. Is per-
fectly willing, even anxious, to meet Bat
tling@Nelson. Cans, his manager, Al Her
ford. and Maurice HEREFORD, who looks after
this end. all declared that the result of
the battle In Frisco was not what they ex-
pected 1t to be.
Cans said that had Britt gone on in his
usual clever style he would have won.
Britt Is not rugged fighter" said
the champion, land he was never known
to score a knockout. I believe it would
have been impossible for him to knock out
Nelson, but believe the bout would have
gone the limit and Britt would have won
the decision on points. Nelson could never
have beaten Britt had not the latter fought
him at his own game.
Nelson at the start probably made Britt
angry by punching him on the nose or
some other irritating place, and the Frisco
lad must have lost his temper He waded
into Nelson to the latterS liking, and Nell
son took advantage of this and kept forcing
matters with him. Nelson scored q clean
and decisive knockout. I'll admit, but he
could never have done so had Britt kept
his senses and stood him off.
1T would have been good bet that
Britt would have worried Nelson SO had
he resorted to his hit-ang- getaway tactics,
that Nelson would have gone down on a
chance blow from Britt.
Now that Nelson has defeated Britt
would like to have a chance with the vic
tor. Nelson may claim the lightweight
championship all he pleases. but he will
have to beat me to make sure that he holds
1t. 1 won the title fairly and squarely
from Frank Erne in May, 1901, at Fort
Erie. Canada, and 1 have never been de-
feated 1t sounds ridiculous to call a man
white lightweight champion. There was
no color line until after 1 won the title
legitimately from white man.
Il believe that I am Nelson's master.
When Sullivan fought Jimmy Britt on the
coast only few months ago I tried to
get on match with Nelson, but the latter
would not talk business with my manager.
l will fight Nelson under any conditions
he wants, but he will have to square with
me in the selection of the referee"
Manager AL HEREFORD, speaking for Cans.
said that he would bet 5000 to $4,000 that
Cans can beat Nelson.
Il tried every way to induce Nolan to
give Cans a match with Nelson said
Manager Herford. when Sullivan fought
Britt. but there was nothing doing. When
1 tried to talk business with Nelson's man.
ager he side-stepped me and said that Nell
son preferred to fight Britt. Now that
Nelson has defeated Britt 1 am going to
keep after him until he gives Cans match.
He and Cans have never fought simply
because Nelson never wanted any Of the
champions game, but to hold the light
weight title squarely he will have to whip
Cans for ii

try.

sentiment expressed by Jim Jeffries, AT
every stage of the game ii was good fight
and the best man won. Nelson surprised
me and so did Britt, for did not think the
latter would force matters as he did. L
have no criticism to offer on either mans
work, except to say they both did their best
to win and fought for every ounce there
was In them" --'---'t-
The estimate of the gate receipts sent
last night was too large, because. although
there were 1900 persons inside the en-
closure, they contributed only $4,000. This
low aggregate was due to the large num-
Der of deadheads who occupied many $50
seats If It had not been for Nolan's talk
about the referee there would have been
49, 900 more in the house. As the fighters
took 50 per cent this means that Nelson
will get $1S.Si1 and Britt S12. 740 To this
must be added 5000 each for the picture
