THE PUGILIST
ANOTHER BIG ONE ARRANGED Jack 0'Brien and Tommy Burns Will Meet - Raw Deal to
 Emergency Kelly.

Los Angeles, Oct 12.-Yesterday afternoon in the private office oi Manager McCarey of the Pacific Ath. letic club, crowded to the doors with newspaper men and sporting people, Philadelphia Jack c orien and Tom my Burns affixed their signatures to a set of articles drawn up by the clubs secretary, calling for twen- ty-round contest for a purse of $l2,- 900. scheduled for the evening of No vember go at the clubs pavilion.
 For weeks the principals have haggled over bonus and rules. O'Bnen demanded 10 per cent of the purse as d bonus and also refused to allow fighting in the clinches and insisted that both boxers should break clean. On the other hand. Burns demanded straight Queensberry rules. which al- low fighting at all times. Burns con- ceded the bonus to O'Brien, but re- fused to give in on the rules. main taining that the public wanted to see fight, not hugging match. In view of Burns giving in on the bonus O'Brien waived his objections to the rules and agreed to sign the articles.
 After signing the papers both fighters wrote a check for $2,500, which was deposited with Manager McCarey as a guarantee of good faith and for appearance. Pictures will be taken of the battle and the two prin- cipals and the club will receive one- third each of the proceeds.

BASE BALL
THE AMERICANS
 TRIM THE CUBS
Ed. Walsh Connecticut League Graduate Turned the Trick
 Very Nicely.

Chicago, Oct 12.-George Rohe IComiskey's utility man, won yester. days game for the local American league team and put the White Sos one game in the lead for the world E championship. Rohe's three bagger Tn the sixth inning scored all the runs of the game and gave the Amer icans q lead that could not be over come. In this fateful inning Tanne- nill hit past third and Walsh drew four balls. Hahn was hit in the face py high inshoot, breaking hls nose and turning 1t over on to the left Side Of his face. O'Neill took Hahn s place, and the bases were filled. King made a fine catch of Jones' s foul, and Isbell struck out. It was up to Rohe, and the substitute hit into the crowd in deep left field, Jrivirg in the three runs.
 Outside of that one inning the game was a pitchers battle of -on- derful quality. Walsh struck out twelve men and Pfiester nine. The Cubs made two hits off Walsh in the flfst inning. before he had got his bearings. After that he was master of the game, and the Nationals could do absolutely nothing with him. They never even seriously threatened to score, and the crowd was kept busy cheering the giant pitcher. Pfies- ter's work was also superb-outside of that one inning.
 Both teams fielded cleverly as some atonement for their lack of batting. The score:

DID "DUTCH" SLUGc

The case of Dutch Levine at Yale recalls that of Sammy Morse in the Harvard4Yale game last fall. Dutch was ruled off for sluggng in Wed nesdays game, but doubt exists as to whether he really offended. In any event his Yale associates do not think he did and in this belief they are sup ported by the Springfield men. Many spectators at the Harvard Yale game of 1905 declared that Morse did not slug, that all he did was to shake off an opponent and that the umpire got the wrong impression of the occur renee. However, whatever may be the merits of the Levine incident, Yale is the second team this year to feel the half distance to the goal line penalty. which the new rules pre- scribe for rough work. The Villa Nova team was thus penalized in the Princeton game. The dsaualitied man protested his innocence. A Princeton man ruled off in sthe same game also disclaimed committing any offense.

THE GAME IN
 MASSACHUSETTS Promoters Are at Work in Several Cities Trying to Boom the
 Old Sport.

There was meeting held in Tauna ton Wednesday exening, at which a polo league was f6rmed with Brock ton. Providence. Pawtucket, Taunton and Boston as members. Letters were also received from people in Worcester, Haverhill and Lowell de- string to enter such an organization.

 George Cunningham represented Providence and has an option on Music hall and Infantry hall. not having decided which heywill take. He also represented Pawtucket in the absence of anybody from that citys announcing that Pawtucket was in line. Manager Mason represented Taunton. Manager C. c. Fitzgerald appeared for Brockton and the Palace ring. and Nick MacGilvray represented Boston.
 It was decided to have another meeting at the Quincy house in Bos- ton on Saturday afternoon at o'clock, when something further is likely to be done in the line of form. ing an organization.
 Nothing was done about listina players or assigning them to any clubs. as 1t is not known yet just how many are going west and how many are 10 stop in the east. As far as known at the meeting very few have as yet agreed to make the western trip.
 Joe Fox. who promoted the league last season. was not at the meeting It was said that he is employed by William A.

THE GRIDIRON NEXT ONE WILL
 BE A CORKER Fort Hamilton Will Send the Best Warriors Here For Next Sun-
 days Game.

Every lover of football in this city and the surrounding towns and vii lages should turn out on Sunday and give the All-Waterburys the biggest boost they ever received in their ] game with Fort Hamilton. In the iirst place the visiting team is the pest one that has ever been brought lo this city, and in the next place the biggest guarantee that has ever been paid to any team in the state will be ! paid to Fort Hamilton. In order that 1 the public may see just what the management of the Waterburys l has to pay to get this team here, the following are the conditions which came in a letter from Second Lieu tenant Malcolm P. Andruss, the su- perintendent of athletics at Fort Hamilton:
 l. Railroad transportation for sixteen men from Fort Hamilton to waterbury and return
 ?. Supper for the team upon reaching Waterbury, Saturday even ing, October 13.
 3. Lodging for the team Saturday night, October 13.
 4. Breakfast and dinner for the team Sunday, October IA.
 5. Fifty dollars, to cover other expenses of the team while on the road.
 The round trip tickets must be sent on in advance, too, before the team starts. Lieutenant Andruss says he has the best team this year he ever got together. and he holds the army championship in that part of the country for base ball. and he expects to land the football title. The lineup of the two teams for Sunday will be as follQws:

ENGLISH RoNERs GREEDY.

Surprising indeed is the exalted opinion held cf themselves by the English pugilisis. Jim DFiscoli. whn beat Jem Rowker on a decision at the National Sporting club. London. last May. asked for si.0e0 expenses. and the club quickly left him alone to his meditation. When Digger Stanley boxed Jimmy Walsh st Chel- sea. October 20. 1905. he came to this country in a cattle boat. and he got nearly si.0O0 for his end. The other day the Lincoln club agreed to allow him s250 for expenses io come over here. but he couldn't be coaxed to make another trip to America. Evs- dentIy the English boxers are living easy in the old country and don't de- sire to separate themselves from a sure thing

NEW FOOTBALL TEAM.

There is some talk of Patrick Sul-
 liyan. who is managing the Second ward football team, getting an elev-
 en together which will be able to
 cope with Manager Slavin's All-Wa-
 terbury aggregation. If the plan
 were carried out and were success
 ful. 1t would give the lovers of foot ball a chance to see some games
 which would be even faster than
 those already scheduled for this city.
 but in the opinion of the followers
 of the game the manager of tne north
 end team has hard task before him.
 The season is now we'll under way.
 but still he has chance to form a
 good team if he can procure the men.
 Manager Sullivan has no idea of bucking the All-Waterbury team. but
 would play almost all of his games out Of town. Still. he would like to arrange a series with the Waterbury eleven. Matt Byrnes, Bill Thompson, Maurice culhane. c. Sullivan, New hart and Cary Egan are some of the men mentioned as being in Sullivan's squad. but 1t is safe wagering that a few of these at least will not be in the lineup. Matt Byrnes. one of the best men in the city. is working nights and that's why he did not get out for the All-Waterbury team. Maurice Culhane undoubtedly has had enough of football and although asked several times since he left We terbury High he refused to partici- pate in the game again. Bill Thomp- son might play. but t is an extreme chance. With these men taken ont of Sullivan's squad there would still he material for good team, but not one that could compare with the AL Waterbury eleven. The other candl- dates are H. Hayes. Brandt. I. Soo- nan. Hoffman. Carmody. Marcella. Egan and Sullivan. The team is really the old North End team cap tained by Bill Thompson a few years ago when 1t had hot contest with the Merrimacs at the Driving park. The same year the eleven trimmed the R. A. C. team of Bridgeport. An other ruulor 10 the effect that team was to be formed which Bill Thomp- son was to captain and Ed Futile manage appears to he all poppy talk.
