KID HERMAN FIGHTS DRAW

The 1905 fighting season opened last
night at Milwaukee with a holly fought
draw betwcen Young O'Leary, the prom
Using local fighter and Kid Herman of
Chicago. I'm which instead OF being knock
ed out by the Chicago boy. the local lad
held his own. and the referees decision
was generally approved.
In the semi-windup Eddie Santry of Chi
cage had his own way with Johnnie Stou q
OF Milwaukee. knocking Stone down twice
I'm the first round and twice In the second
round before the referee stopped tho
fight.
The mill between Herman and O'Trsrv
was marked by the hardest sort Of work
from the call To the last gong.
Herman had promised 20 knock the 10
cal lad out in tho first Ave rounds, but
had too big a contract on his hands.
The fourth round at times seemed TO
promise a knockout for OLesry and a de-
feat for the Chicago boy instead Of a
victory. Up 10 that time the fighting had
been aboIt even. both boys working hard
on the stomach and Jaw.
In the fourth. however. O'Leary handed
Herman a right 10 the jaw which staeger
cd the Chicago boy. Then exchanged body
blows, n O'Leary sent I'm another to the
head. Herman landed twice on O'Leary's
face. and O'Leary came back with a right
on Herman's jaw which made him see
stars again.
Herman. however. returned a left 20
O'Leary's ear which staggered the MIL
waukee boy: but as the bell sounded
O'Leary had Herman reeling again under
a short lab TO the wind.

was TO be traded 10 the Cincinnati club
i'm exchange for Cy SEYMOUR, the hard
hitting outfelder Of the Reds. will again
wear a New York uniform next season.
This fact was made plain by Manager Nc.

he had never even considered asking Brcs-
nahan or any other member OF this years
Giant 10 go.
McGraw said he had talked with all the
players during the series with the Ath-
letics, and they all expressed themselves
as being anxious TO play here again next
year.

Cincinnati" said McGraw, ''he could not

given it
McGraw also stated that ever II he de-
cided TO let Roger go 10 the P~orkopolis
he would not manage the Reds, as Joe
Kelley will again assume command OF the
Cincinnati team.
II had a long talk with Herman while
we were in Cincinnati on the last trip
said the Giants manager. and he asked
me what | thought of his team. J told
him all he lacked was good pitchers. He
asked me what / thought of Kelley's
handling of the team, and told him that
Joe had done all that could be expected
OF him. lie then told me that Kelley

Joe has since told me the same"
Bresnahan has long had the managerial
