BUILD YACHTS TO
DEFEND THE CUP,

NEW YORK, July 25.-How prob
able is race for the Americas cup
next year may be judged from the
fact that already plans are under
way to build three yachts for the
defense of the trophy. The yachts
are to be designed by the three fore
most naval architects in America.
They will be from the board of Nat
Herreshoff, of Henry J. Gielow, and
VIM. Gardner. The three yachts will
compete in trial races, according to
the present idea, and the best of the
three selected to race for the cup.
All three of the designers in ques-
tion have especially guarded the fact
that they have plans under prepara-
ton. Neither will they reveal the
identity of the intending builders.
1t is known, however, that Frank M.
Smith, owner of the Kings cup win
ner, Effort, is behind the Gielow boat
and that John H. Hanan and his sons
Addison G. and Wilmer Hanan are
behind the Gardner boat; also that
the usual syndicate is behind the
Herreshoff boat.
While it is true that there have
been no negotiations as yet with re-
spect to a challenge, it has been
we'll understood fact since Sir
Thomas Upton left this country last
winter that he would challenge at
the end of the present racing season.

KNOCKED-OUT LIST
IS A LONG ONE
Fighters Who Went Down and Out
Didn't Listen to The
Count.

In the history of modern baseball
the chances which fans imagine a
batter takes even with any kind of
a pitcher in the box, whether he
pitches a fast or slow ball, shows
from statistics that only seven bat
tiers have been seriously injured.
This speaks well for the national
game. Following is list of batters
who have been seriously hurt:
Bill Nash of Boston knocked out
by Smith of Louisville, and his ca
reer practically ended.
Burdock of Boston hit on head and
rendered unconscious for many days
by Pitcher Keefe.
Watkins of indianapolis hit in Gin
cinnati by Wild Bill Widmer and
ruined as a ball player. During the
night of the accident Watkins hair
turned white.
Hnghey Jennings of Baltimore
knocked unconscious and laid out
for many weeks by Amos Rusie OF
New York.
Frank Dryer, hit by batted ball
from the bat of Pitcher AL Ortiz and
laid out of the game for months.
Dannq Hoffman rendered insensi-
BILE for many days from being hit on
the head by pitched bayy thrown
by Jesse Tannehill of Boston,
Roger Bresnahan, knocked insen-
sible by Pitcher Coakley at Cincin-
natl and out of the game for month

NEW YORK, July 26-The fourth
annual Glidden cup tour of the AM
erican Automobile association, aggre-
eating 100 miles from Cleveland to
the Atlantic coast cities by way of

TO CROSS THE POND
LOOKING FOR A FIGHT

Jimmy Walsh and Ed. Keevn are
to go across the waters before long
to mix things at the big London car
nival with Digger Stanley, who
seems to think he has some right
to the title.
That is little hard to figure out
as Owen Moran now holds the Eng
fish bantam championship. Accord
ing to Keevin, there is some talk of
the Britisher coming to this country.
In that event, Freddie Weeks, Abe
Attell, Eddie Menney or frankie
Neil might fall across his path, but
the most legitimate opponent for him
is Jimmie Walsh. On his last trip
to this country, Moran carried home
the sca1ps of Monte Attell and Dan
ny Dougherty. He is now in line
for the big little men.
If Reno is really looking for a
fight, here is a card which is good
one, and less expensive than Cans
and Nelson. Purses of $4,000 are
ridiculous, and there is not a card
in the world of the ring today which
is really worth that. Nevada can adj
vertise herself without this sort of
frenzied finance.
Walsh and Moran could be secured
for an international bout, probably
for about one-third of the purse
which was near-offered to Cans. The
difference in the gates would not be
propjortionate to the difference in
the purse.

Walthour Will Arrive.

Bobbie Walthour telegraphed
Manager Chapman of the saucer
track of Salt Lake that he would be
there this morning and ready to ride
at a moments notice. Walthour is
considered the king of all pace fol-
lowers, although Mcfarland has dis
puted this claim several times, and
the latter announced several days
ago that he would get into the game
just to give Walthour a run for his
money. Now that Mcfarland has
had bad fall, he may change his
mind about any more pace following.
Walthour is bringing with him fast
motor, the same style as that used
by Gussie Lawson, and the men that
are able to follow these two ma
chimes at their speed limit will be
able to break all worlds records for

Sam Mertes, the Californian who
was at one time with New York and
this season went to Minneapolis, re-
turned to San Francisco Unexpected
ly this week. Mertes says that he
had business that called him home
and that he had to leave without per-
mission of the management.
When asked whether he would re-
turn, he said: That's up to the
management. 1t may be they will
blacklist me, as they did not want
me to leave. However, my personal
business means more to me than
playing baseball and l was bound to
come" Regarding the reports that
Mertes was to be transferred from
Minneapolis to Washington, the out
fielder says that he had heard moth
ing and he adds that they could not
make such a deal without consulting
him. His contract with Minneapolis
expressly provided that he was not
to be transferred or sold without his
own agreement.
A most remarkable game of base
ball was played at Cleveland, o., re-
Gently, which Establishes the rec
ord. Thirty-siX innings were played
between the Heintz Victors and the
Columbia Selects, resulting in tie
at the end of the thirty-sixth inning,
each side having scored two runs and
the game being called on account of
darkness.
Decker, the slab man for the Vic
tors, had twenty strikeouts to his
credit and Robins, the opposing
mound builder, nineteen. Each
pitcher allowed but eight hits So far
as is known there is no record to
equal this and it will probably stand
for some time. A game played a
short time ago lasted thirty-four
innings, but was ended. Another
game was played at Boston which
ran thirty-two innings.

VIENNA. June 3.-An interesting trial
has just occurred here of married couple
who were accused of imolesting King Ed

was specially appointed to look after the
kings safety and prevent his being an
noyed by impertinent curiosity, remarked
that visitor accompanied by a woman
stared unceremoniously at his ma jesty, who
was seated bench under the colonnades
The commissioner politely requested the
couple to move on, and as they refused to
leave the spot he asked Marienbad police
man to take the address and the nationality
of the stranger. The latter angrly declared
that the commissioner had no right to Or
der him to leave the colonnades and said
that the next time this occurred he would
give him box on the ear.
For this threat the visitor was sentenced
by the Marienbad magistrates to a fine Of
200 kronen or five days Imprisonment for
insulting the police authorities. He made
no appeal against the sentence, but when
the matter came to the knowledge of the
general procurator in Vienna he raised an
objection to the sentence, as the instlted
police official had not been present at the
time the threat was uttered. The upshot
OF the entire matter was that in Vienna the
sentence was annulled and the man was
acquitted.
