SCORERS FAVORED STONE!
Averages of the American League
Raise Question of New Rules.

&ALHAADh Va WV
The official American League averages
left a taste of sour grapes in the mouths
Of Cleveland critics, who claim that
George Stone was permitted TO lead the
league through the indulgence of st. Louis
scorers. It is but another illustration OF
the evils and lack of system in the
scoring of to-day. and an argument for a
new set of scoring rules that viii pre-
vent abuse of scoring privileges.
Commenting on the tie between Stone
and Clark, the Cleveland Leader rays:
Had Nap Liable been given the prefer
ence on some Of his hitting stunts, IS
has George Stone the past season, the
Cleveland manager would be the cham
piOn batsman of the American League
for 1866. Had he just been able TO make
two more hits he would have tied Stone
and Clark for the honors, while a total of
three would have made him leader with
an average of $50. George Stone, of st.
Louis, is given the championship title with
Mig Clark. but according to the Clevc-
land players now in the city he is not en-
titled 10 that honor for he was favored
at every turn, and the last hit Of the sea
son credited 70 him was an error on The
part Of Buelow. who dropped the throw
from Flick. who was playing uecond base
at that time
1T was a pure error. but the official
scorer in St Louis gave Stone n hit
whereas had II been an error. Stone :
average would have been $50 That was
matter Of Judgment on the scorers part.
but IT was said by all players who visited
Cleveland the past season this same IA
voritism was shownat all times during the
year. On the road Stones average would
take a decided slump which speaks for
itself"

RICHARD TO THE RESCUE
GOIdneId Promoter VIII Probably
Succeed in Arranging Heavy

from RhyOIite-JOe Cans in Shape
for His Contest with Kid Herman.

New York, Dec 2S.-More worriment
for the Nevada fight promoters, who are
trying to make a match between James
developed to-day.
In spite of telegram purporting TO
have been signed by Jeffries and held by
the Rhyolite people, 10 the effect that the
champion had accepted an offer for a
$4,000 purse, Jenries declared to-day that
he had not agreed upon terms with any
body. and that he intended to leave the
whole matter 10 his old manager. Billy
Delaney. In other words, Jeffries evi-
IDENTIFY believes that he can compel the
various Nevada mining camps TO bid
against one another for the proposed mill,
and that, in the course Of time, one Of
them VIII show a willingness to hang up
a $4,000 prize. In short. the boilermaker
is out for the money. as ne is said TO be
rather short Of ready cash, because Of
heavy investments in his Los Angeles
ranch
The Rhyolite people, who believed they
had cinched the big fight concluded yes

and they cabled TO the Australian to sail
for this country on January q, at the
same time notifying him that all Of his
expenses would be paid
Jeffries. in defending his position. says
that when he was first approached with
an offer for a return to the ring the purse
named was 81 20. but that when he con-
scented TO talk business with the Rhyolite
promoters as TO a battle with Squires.
they promptly informed him that they
could not afford to hang up more than
$1,000
In view Of the present craze for prize
fights in Nevada, Jeffries says he believes
some Of the other promoters should have
a chance 20 bid for the fight with the
overrated antipOdean. and that is why
he is not in a hurry to sign II is said
that JEFF has received a quiet tip from
Tex Richard to lay low until the latter
can reach Squires. in which event Gold
field VIII outbid REyolite for the match.
Cans Can Make Weight.
Joe Cans has sent word 20 numerous
friends in the East that he weighs only
1872 pounds, and is as strong as he ever
was. He says that he will have no trou-
BILE in making the lightweight limit on
New Years Day, and that, barring acct
dents. he viii beat Kid Herman 20 a
certainty.
Cans declares that he expects to take
part in a rough fight, but that he is in
shape TO go as far as he did with Nelson.
but that he feels confident of ending the
battle in a much shorter time.
In Tonopah to-day the hackers Of Her
man were demanding 10 l for their
money, but could find few who would
consent to such a proposition.
Tommy Ryan viii be compelled 20 wait
for some time before he can fight again.
Hugo Kelly, his prospective opponent in a
mill for the middle-weight championship,
has just been matched TO fight Joe
Thomas, Of California. for the title at
Denver on January p. Thomas, until re-
Gently, was a welter-weight. but he has
grown so rapidly that be cannot get un-
