in Six Rounds in
Philadelphia.
cHAMPIoNs DEADLY HOOKS

PHILADELPHIA, June 30--Joe Cans
easily outfought Jack Blackburn in six
rounds AT the National Athletic Club,
last evening. having the Philadelphia
boxer holding TO save himself at the
finish.
In fact, Blackburn held in nearly ev-
cry round. and by so doing lost what
ever chance he may have had 10 beat
the champion-for champion lightweight
the Baltimore negro must stiu be con-
sidered. Blackburn threw away his ad-
vantage OF longer reach by persistently
trying 10 fight at close quarters. usually
preferrins 70 be holding with one hand.
Those Deadly Hooks.
He was probably prompted to this
action by clean left hook that Cans
landed on his jaw early in the first
round. Il was Of the same old brand
that Cans was won't 10 hand out 20 his
opponents when he was more active in
the ring than he has been OF late, and
showed that Joe has not gone back
quite as far as some people thought
Cans landed a second left hook on
Blackburn's face a little later in the
round. and also got home with a good
hard right on the side Of the head. The
round ended with an exchange Of rights
IN the face. II was easily Gas round.
Cans missed with a terrific right swing
Tor the jaw at the beginning OF the sec

sidestep most or the haIf-hearted
punches which Blackburn sent his way
Blackburn finally got 10 JOe's stomach
with his left. and also landed = -ie-bt

A very pleasant afternoon was spent
yesterday at our ball yard.
Our brave boys got an even split with
the Athletics. and that helped a lot.
When your standing Is below 800 an
even break raises you When il is above
500 the same thing lowers you. and by
the same token the even break yester-
day knocked the Athletics from a tie
for first place down to third.
1t was a pleasant afternoon not only
because we boosted ourselves along. but
because the team did some real snappy
playing. especially in the second game.
There were two bits Of fielding Ia that
second contest which will not be sur
passed in Washington this season. One
was a long. running. head-foremost stab
by Hickman for a low line fly. and the
other was the stopping and out by L.
Cross. on a screamer. that hit his hands
so hard that he was completely turned
around.
Stahl Woolgathered-
sad feature was the manner in
which StahI became wooIgathered on sew
eral occasions and made plays that were
distinctly amateUrish. He failed TO cover
the bag. and was easily drawn on on
any kind Of an aged trick His most
remarkable break was in the fifth inning
Of the second game. In this incident he
made himself look absolutely foolish.
Murphy was on second and NJ. Cross on
first. knight hit TO Schlafly. who threw
TO Altizer at second. forcing NJ Cross by
small margin. Stahl has a habit Of
becoming so interested in what the team
is doing that he fails 10 keep his eye on
his own number. and when Altizer threw
MI Il
Knight al first he wasn't there. and the
ball went over his head
Stahl recovered the throw. but fell a
victim to Monte Cross. who began run
ming madly up and down the line be
tween second and third. although he was
already out. The boy manager became
badly ratified and cut across the diamond
after Monte. and indUstriousIv pursued
the dead one. This got everybody e,Jin-;
and in the excitement Murphy was wait
lns Tor a chance TO get home, and
knight started for second Altizer let
out WlOop and Stahl came to his
senses just in time TO throw the ball to
him at second and nab Knight 1t was.
altogether. about the worst play of the
year.
Fought Bravely.
Washington fought braveIy. but lost
the first game because the Athletics. al
though they were not able to slaughter
him. were able to bunch hits on NItson
and the punching came along just fire.
Guently enough 10 keep the visitors in
the lead. The home folk made a notable
rally in the seventh inning and got
three runs, but il was no use.
The. second game saw the queer sight
OF a Washington pitcher exploding, but
not losing his game. In the seventh
round with one out Patten was hit five
times and gave q pass. which brought
the Athletics total OF tailieS TO four Just
ono behind Washington. Falkenberg
then went in and Jared Connie Mack

ATTORNEY GENERAL MOODY AND
SECRETARY SHAW HAVE DE.
cIDED TO RETIRE.
STRAUS TO SUCCEED MErCALF
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY
A HEBREW WILL HOLD A CAB
MET POSITION.

Washington, Oct. 24.-The following
statement regarding prospective
changes in President Rooseyelt's cabi-
net has been made public at the White
House:
ION the retirement of Secretary
Shaw and Attorney General Moody
from the cabinet the following changes
will be made:
Secretary OF the treasury, George
B. Cortelyou.
Postmaster general, George Won L.
Meyer.
attorney general, Charles j. Bona
parte.
Secretary of the navy, Victor II.
Metcalf.
Secretary of commerce and labor,
Oscar S. Straus."
The general understanding for some
time has been that Attorney General
Moody will retire on Jan. l, 1907, and
that Secretary Shaw will follow him
on March 4. On the first Of the year
therefore, Mr. Bonaparte, who is now
secretary of the navy, will succeed Mr..
Moody as attorney general and he will
! in turn be succeeded by Mr.. Metcalf,
the secretary of commerce and labor,
the latter's place being filled by Mr..
| Straus. Mr.. Cortelyou, now postmas-
ter general, will take Secretary
Shaw's place on March 4, at which
time Mr.. Meyer is to become postmas-
ter general.
| The announcement of the prospec-
tive changes in the cabinet was made
after a protracted cabinet meeting at
which it is understood the whole mat
ter was considered fully. The changes
contemplate the introduction of two
new men in the cabinet, Mr. Meyer.

AFTER 4 LONG CHASE
FIVE BANDITS WHO ROBBED THE
BANK AT SAWYER, N. D., ARE
CAPTURED.
ROBBER WOUNDED IN FIGHT
THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS OF
THE STOLEN MONEY HAS
BEEN RECOVERED.

Minot, N. D., Oct. 24.-After a
chase lasting thirty-six hours the
sheriff's posse succeeded in capturing
the five bandits who robbed the Saw
yer, N. D., bank early Monday morn
ing, when a battle ensued with citi-
zens during which 800 shots were
fired, the robbers getting away with
$4,000. The men were discovered on
a farm near here. Escape was at
tempted and in the fight that followed
one robber was severely wounded in
the leg. Another member Of the party
ran into slough with 5000 in gold and
bills and dropped the money into the
water. Money was also scattered on
the prairie by the bandits. Chief Of
Police Hagen secured $4,000 of the
money.
Four OF the captured men are young
and well dressed, none being over
twenty-five years old. The leader is
a hardened looking criminal, some
what older, The money was being
carried In bags and was composed of
gold and bills, all the heavy silver
having been thrown away.

for some time but the name OF Mr.
Straus has been mentioned only in
cidentally, If at all, in connection with
the circle Of the presidents advisors.
The transfers of Messrs. Cortelyou to
the treasury, Bonaparte to the attor.
ney generalship and Metcalf to the
navy have been generally accepted as
although it has been known that both
Mr.. Bonaparte and Mr.. Metcalf were
for time loath to leave their present
positions because they had become so
fully identified with the work OF their
respective departments.
Mr.. Meyer, who will become post
master general, is ambassador to Rus
STA, to which place he was appointed
On March 6, 1905, having been pro-
noted to that Office following his sery-
Ice as the ambassador to Italy from
1900 to 1905 He is native of Massa-
chusetts and has been we'll known as
business man.
The appointment of Mr. Straus
caused considerable surprise, as it will
be the first case where a citizen of
the Hebrew faith has been made a
member of the presidents cabinet. He
was born Dec. 8, 1850, and is well
known as a merchant, diplomat and
author. He represented the United
States as minister to Turkey and was
appointed by President Roosevelt to
fill the vacancy caused by the death
Of ex-President Harrison as member
Of the permanent court of arbitration
at The Hague.
