Boshter Bill has severed his financial
connections with Barney Reynolds. who
held the power Of attorney for Book
maker Wren. Of Australia. the heavy

Ontario, Canada, TO accept a position as
a wood chopper with a. lumber firm.
Squires' contract with Wren was
unique for a fighter 10 have with his

TO pay all IF SQuires' expenses and give
him half Of what he earned IN the ring
Barney tired Of the actions of his pro
tege and, securing Wren's consent, can
celed the contract.
There has not been the best Of feeling
between Reynolds and Squires for some

The Eastern and Western teams OF

After tomorrow the scene of combat
in the National League will shift to the

teams of the American League will come

During the past few weeks, where the
conditions were the reverse, there were
three SURPRISES. two in the American
and one in the National. The latter was
-the great showing made by Brooklyn,
which broke even with Chicago and
PittsbUrg and beat st. Louis and Gin
rcinnau to a standstill-
Athletics Creeping Up.
In the American. the losses of the
Cleveland club at home and the VIC
tories OF the Athletics in the West
caused excitement In addition, the Chi
Cago Americans were not quite 50 for
midable as formerly on their own
grounds. As a rule. the White Sox are
better at home than on the road, and
their recent defeats have caused some
doubt as 10 their ability 10 again win the
penLsnt and thus defend their title OF
worlds champions next fall.
The followers Of the Athletics are I'm
mensely pleased with their showing In
the West Unfortunately, the Detroit
team has again proved TO be a stun
bling block 10 Mack's team The Ath-
letiCs stopped of at Detroit on their
way TO Chicago and lost a game, and
they are winding up their trip in that
section with more defeats. The general
showing Of the White Elephants, how
ever has been splendid In every respect
and with long home stand at Colum-
bia Park. beginning next Wednesday,
they should be right IN the thick OF the
pennant battle before they once more
go on the road.
An Interesting Series.
They will have a splendid opportunity
TO improve their chances Immediately.
for the first team they will meet after
getting back to their own stamping
ground will be the Chicago White Sox
Mack's men have always been able 10
hold their own against the worlds
champions, and during the spring, when
they were not IN near as good condition
as they are now, they defeated Chicago
in two games out Of three. One game
was postponed from that series. so that
there will probably be five games IN
Philadelphia this week between these
teams. With the Athletics pitchers IN
nrst-claSs shape, there Is good reason
TO expect the white Elephants 10 win
at least throa Of the five contests. al
though they will have TO play tOp-notch
ball TO do that well.
Lajoies injury was a sad blow to
Cleveland. and IL Flick leaves the team

young men are yearly developing into
