Secretary FarraII Tacks Assess
ment Up Against Peoria
Players
FOR MEETING LOGAN SQUARES
Orders of Commission Were Defied-
Calls Bluff Regarding Outlaw
League.

NJ. H. Sexton, retiring president of
the local baseball association. today re-
ceived a letter from Secretary Farrell
of the National commission in which
the latter stated that he had assessed
a fine of $50 against each member of
the Peoria Three-Eye team who parti-
cipated in the post season series with
Jimmy Callahan's outlaw Logan
Square team at the Still city. The
players stand suspended till the
amount is paid.
The fine appears to have resulted
from the defiance of the National com.
missions orders TO discontinue the Sc
ries after three games had been play
ed. The Peoria management asserted
at the time that the players, having
completed their contract with the
Three-Eye. could do as they saw fit.
Now Form That Outlaw League.
This calls the bluff of the Peoria
magnates made. at the time the order
was given to cease playing with the

everything but the figures that sprung
out one by one on a bulletin board, a
little group of big bronzed men danced
around in the street in front of news
paper office yesterday while the rain
swept over them in sheets. They were
drenched, but they didn't care. All
they knew or cared about was that
over in Philadelphia it wasn't raining
and there was a baseball game.
So they splashed about in the mud
and rain waiting. The wires licked off
the second game in Philadelphia and
the figures went up outside. So it con-
tinued till darkness ended the game in
Philadelphia leaving the New York
team defeated. When this final an
nouncement went out on the board the
men from Chicago, yelling like dervish-
es, broke through the crowd shouting,
"Pennanti Pennanti"
And that is how the White Sox, dress
ed in their street clothes and dancing
in the rain, mile from a ball park,
won the American league pennant.

COMlSKEY WINNER
OF SEVEN REMNANTS
Yesterdays Results in American
League Again Prove His
Generalship.

Charles A. Comiskey. better known

Roman is the pioneer pennant win
ner of the baseball business. YesteT-
days results in the American league,
which meant the championship for the
White Sox, brought him his seventh
big league pennant. The expression
"four-time winners" originated when
Comiskey led the famous St Louis
Browns to victory for four consecutive
seasons--1SS5, 1886, 1887, and 1888. In
the seven years of the American

DOUBTFUL If SlLER
COULD SEE THE BLOW
Fiqht Fans View Gans-Nelson Moving
Pictures and Form Own
Opinions.

The moving pictures of the Nelson
Cans prize fight, shown at the Illinois
last evening. attracted considerable at
tention, owing to the interest in the
fight itself, and the great difference of
opinion as to the decision of Referee
Siler on the final blow. The pictures
are quite clear. and give a good idea
of the fierceness of the battle. Yes
teTday afternoon the pictures were run
off before a company of tri-city news
paper men. and the last reel was
shown twice. The pictures show that
Cans very frequently throughout the
entire fight, held Nelson's arm on the
side opposite the referee, and on the
final blow il shows that Siler's decision
was a doubtful one. The blow seems
to have been too low, but from the
position of Siler. it is doubtful if he
could see the blow. 1t is possible that
he could see it. but to do so he would
have been looking over Nelson's shout
der. and could not accurately have
made a decision on it.
