MCKEEVER LOSES in
4 WHIRLWIND FIGHT
journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
Boston April 17.--Charlie McKeever, the vet
eran fighter who stood off Honey Melody for
eleven rounds inca whirlwind fight few weeks
ago only, lasted six rounds in his battle with
Melody before the Lincoln Athletic club last
night.
It was furious fight while it lasted Both
men were toe to toe swapping wallops, and in
the clinches there was some stif work done.
especially by the veteran, who forced the fight
SO hard at close range in the second that Mel
lody had to tin-can.
In that round Charley crashed over a right
cross to the jaw while Honey was stepping
away from c1inch. :, 1t upset the local boy,
but he stalled and finished out the session the
stronger of the two.
In the fifth Melody caught McKeeyer with
right swing and opened up his eye. The blow
took a. -lot of steam out of Charley and he
went toshis corner tired. In the middle of the
sixth, while Charley was going away from 9
clinch, Melody put lover a right swing to the
jaw and Mac took the count.

UNCLE GEORGE CHEERFUL
Takes a Bit Of Nourishment Over the
Outlook of the Saints.

President Lennon of the ST. Paul club said
yesterday that he had nothing to do with the
Kelley matter as a settlement, If any Is made,
will be by the minneapolis and sthe st. Louis
clubs and the national commission Mr.. Lennon
did state, however, that he hoped some agree
ment will be reached. T%>
Personally, = have no objections to Kelley
managing from the bench" said Mr.. Lennon.
$50 far as the game itself is concerned. would
rather have Kelley on the, bench than not on
the grounds at all, for then the Minneapolis fans
can have no kick coming when we beat, them.
Should the saints trim the mtllers without even
the bench direction Of Kelley, there would al
once be a cry that things would be different II
Kelley were there. think st. Paul has bet
ter team than Minneapolis, and want the mill
ers to be at their best and have every advantage
when we meet them, SO that there will be nc
kick when the games are over.''-Pioneer Press

MILLERS TO OPEN
WITH TEBEAUITES
American Association Play to
Start with Continuation Of
Old Fight.
BY O'Louahlln.

The American association teams start in on
the seasons play tomorrow. Minneapolis crap
pies with the minions of Whitewings Tebeau
at louisville. The Kansas City NUTS open up
with Columbus, Dick Padden's paralytic start
up with Watkins Texas leaguers, and Joe Can
tillon's rowiies start the proceedings with Bill
Clarke's mudhens at Toledo. 80
Today brings about another lowering of the
war clouds in that Charley Havenor has broken
off the reservation and started war dance on
the question of the official ball. He has mott
fed Joe Cantillon to take his brood OH the
Toledo field if anything but the Victor ball is
thrown out by the arbitrator. This will prob
/, ably result in the playing of the games under
protest and the reference of the whole matter
to the national commission for adjudication
Hayenor says the national commission has no
hand In the matter, but the reading Of the
national agreement. in which the American as
ISOLATION acquiesced, should clear up the gray
matter which is supposed to have Its resting
place behind Charles bullying brow. .... g.
s, The opening and ball fight comes after. a
winter of wrangling. The magnates have quar-
relied like set Of hshwives from the close OF
play last year until the opening day. This has
given the baseball world fine insight into the
frickeIy and politics Of baseball; has shown the
public that baseball is nothing more or less than
q big business enterprise, and that among the
Inagnates-or some of them at least-spor tsman-
ship 10 about minus as the society element at
an ironmeuIders' excursion. -
Z Tho accident to Freeman puts Minneapolis
into the with something of handicap.
'sBuck' was in the best condition Of his career
IN Minneapolis. and thru the injury will be
out for three weeks at least. Hart will cover
nrst base, and, while he Is a heavy hitter,
can. hardly be expected to handle the work
around the first corner as satisfactorily as would
the more experienced man. Hart Is an out
Asider and not accustomed to the close play
around the bases.
The strength Of the various clubs is matter
Of conjecture All of them have been changed
aince the close Of play last season. and how
the new material will work will not be known
until after the first ten days of play-if then.
Minneapolis fans generally satisfied with
the miller outlook and are depending upon Kelley
to give the city another Of frst-class
baseball. From present outlook they will not
be disappointed.
