YANKEES WON'T
PLAY THE GIANTS

NEW YORK. October 5-Racing and foot
ball. but no more base bali for New York
after this week.
Frank Farrell yesterday afternoon said he
would give out a statement in few days
announcing his attitude On the subject of
to be interviewed now and the mere fact
that he does not intend to make his state
ment until some time after base ball affairs
are completed proves that Giant-Yankee
series will not take place
There are two evident reasons for Farrells
well wrecked. The pitchers are in, and
couple of weeks rest would be needed to
put them in shape. While his club ex-
presses its zeal to meet the Giants. the bet
ting would be to l against the Yanks.
OF course, Griffith's boys would like to
earn an extra thousand dollars apiece, but
Griffith feels that they would be at dis
advantage in meeting McGraw's lads, who
have been taking 1t easy.
Another reason, that in spite of reported
good feeling between the two manage
ments the facts are somewhat different.
Farrell has never forgotten the deal he
had from the other Grub when Invading"
New York. He has neither forgotten nor
forgiven. While friendly rivalry" has
prevailed to certain extent this year there
probably remains rankle.
SO far as the players are concerned. they
believe themselves capable of beating the
Giants. Same notion is held among Nc
Graw's men. Surely no one could call the
Yankees bunch Of cutters" after their
recent plucky fighting

JENNINGS WILL
HARMONIZE THE TIGERS

CLEVELAND. Ohio, October 5-Hugh
Jennings, who will manage the Detroits
next season. spent Wednesday in Cleveland
looking over the team. He had intended to
keep his presence secret. but 1t became
known. and he talked to several of the
players at the park. While reticent in re-
gard to the team for the coming season, it
could be seen that he was pretty we'll sat
isfied with the makeup.
You see. l am not in position to define
my policy for the coming season." said
Jennings. Il must have a talk with the
owners. but before doing so wanted to get
line on the players. But you can say right
here that there will be no deal with Chi
cago or any other club for Mcintyre or
Crawford"
Jennings admitted that he was aware of
factions in the team, but he intended to do
away with all of these troublesome quar-
rels. II will have harmony on the team,
and 1 guess there will be no trouble in ad-
justing difficulties
1t can be safely said that there will be
one or two changes in the pitching staff,
while the catching department will be left
unmolested. Lindsay is slated to go or fig
ure in a deal if Camel can be secured and
incidentally that Joe Kelley may be found
with the Tigers next year. Jennings has a
warm spot in his heart for Kelley
Jennings left for Detroit, and from there
will go to his home before announcing any
plans.

Short Practice for Yale.

NEW HAVEN, October 5.-After the
hard game against Wesleyan Wednesday
the Yale squad was not in condition for
hard scrimmage yesterday and had only
ten-mnute half of lineup. The practice
consisted in the main of short kicking and
drill OF trick plays. Defensive work in
stopping tricks was also in the drill. The
squad seemed none the worse apparently
for the game Wednesday, but the coaches
seemed not to want to drive them, with the
Syracuse contest on Saturday. Capt. Morse
was in practice for the first time this week
and said he had recovered from his slight
indisposition. He will be in his place when
the whistle blows. ItSwas said here that
the injury to Burch was not broken
shoulder, but broken collar bone. 1t Is
said that he will be in the game again
in month.

Proves to Be Most Popular Of Base
Ball Players.

The contest for the most popular base
ball player on the Washington team, inau-
gurated by Mr.. D. ]. Kaufman. the we'll
known clothier of 1O05-1OO7 Pennsylvania
avenue. has resulted in the selection Of
John Anderson, Washington's popular left
fielder. The race has been close and the fin
ish full Of excitement. After a careful
count the contest was awarded to Mr.. An
derson, who received 1855 votes. He will
also receive a complete outfit of the best
clothing in the MANS Store" which
means, Mr.. Kaufman says. that he will be
one of the best dressed men in Washington.
Many other popular players were repre-
scented in the contest and polled heavy
votes.

Tigers Try Secret Work.

PRINCETON, October 5.-Au spectators
were chased of the university field yes
terday afternoon because the Tigers wanted
to. practice in secret. The gates were
closed and the only information given out
was that the varsity scored a touchdown.
The scrimmage was long and hard. A num-
Der of new trick formations were practiced
during the afternoon. Some of them may
be sprung on Saturday when Princeton
plays Washington and Jefferson, for the
tricks are mainly constructed under the
new rules.
P. Waller. who played in the Yale game
last fall, came out on the squad. WaEer.
his appearance on the scrub will help out
a lot, for the scrub line is somewhat weak
in comparison with its daily opponents The
practice today will probably be open.

Radical Changes at Penn.

PHILADELPHIA, October 5.-After the
disastrous Gettysburg game of Wednesday
which brought out SO many defects in the
Pennsylvania foot ball team the coach made
a radical change in the team yesterday
afternoon in moving Hunter Scarlet from
right end to quarterback in place of War
rem Sheble. who was relegated to the side
lines. and placing Takakie the Japanese
student. at right end in his place Scarlet
was splendid end on last years team and
the move Is made in desperate hope that
he may prove better man for the place
than Sheble whose playing Wednesday was
away below the standard necessary for a
quarter this year. Scarlet had little chance
to show his ability in the position. Long
well played half on kicks with him and
took every punt that came back, fumbling
most all Of them, so that no nne could be
had on Scarlett's work. In running the
team and aiding the runner he did very
we'll. but his passing was very poor. Scar
lett has splendidly built form for quar-
ter and Is speedy enough for the job. It re-
mains to be seen If he can master the de-
tails of open play that are required Of
quarterback.
The practice was secret and 1t was almost
$50 o'clock before the coaches put the men
down to hard work. The early afternoons
work was devoted to a drill In new plays
and signal work and in showing the men
how Gettysburg put 1T all over them. That
the condition Of the team Is alarming was
shown by the return of Carl Williams to &C.
tive coaching. Coach Vail Of Gettysburg
was on hand to watch the practice and give
his ideas Of some new plays.

Lowe and Gleason Draw.

Lowe of Washington. D. c.. and Kid Glea-
son of this city went six rounds to even
results in the wind-up at the Broadway
Athletic Club last night In the first two
rounds Gleason appeared to have Lowe
shaded. and in each round he staggered
the Washington recruit with a hard right
wallop to the jaw. But Gleason failed to
follow up his advantage In the remaining
rounds, and Lowe. gaining confidence as
the bout progressed made things hum for
the Kid in the last round. Lowe rallied
to such an extent that ne was entitled to
a draw when the bell rang for the end of
hoStilitieS.
