Cans telegraphed to John W. Kelley
today to bet all the money he could
get down on him in New York. Kelley
telegraphed to Tex Richard to verify

Thru Richard Cans got down $4,000 to
of John Lode, the fattest faro dealer
in the world, putting out the money
in instalments.
Nolan held that Richard was going to
have the canvas darkened with varnish
whereas he declared himself and said
it was as good for Nelson as for Cans.

from N olan he exploded.

"What / am going to do is to varnish
up the canvas SO it will be a dull

game now. he. will have to get out of

Milwaukee, Sept. 1.-Gus Koch and
his batch Of cookies lost their third
straight game to the brewers this af
ternoon and placed the Milwaukee
bunch nearer the Columbus champions
for first place, altho the general sup
position is that the senators will land
the flag just the same. The Kochs were
outplayed today and were also out Of
the running as far as luck went, for
they were an unfortunate crowd. g
Oberlin, the Boston purchase, was
against the Kochs and kept the hits
we'll scattered, altho at times he was
batted hard. Two runs were the limit
for the Kochs. Cadwallader was hit
hard and in the seventh he retired and
Graham took his place and finished the
game. The brewers did not hit
"Peaches' very hard.
The fielding was not the kind that
would make a pitcher jump for joy,
and the brewers secured several of their
runs thru poor plays. Greminger hit
the ball hard, but was unlucky in plac-
ing them. In the first he hit a long
one against the fence in deep left field
which McChesney got after jumping
up against the fence and hauling the
ball down from the boards. Again in
the third he hit long liner to right
which Danny Green got after a hard
run. Denny Sullivan, who secured four
hits yesterday, got three more today,
triple and two singles. Roth put the
ball over left field fence for home
rim in the third The score:
