IN THE DRAFT.
SIugger Burke of Holyoke Captured
 By Providence.

By Providence.
 Notice of the drafting of Outfield- CT Frank Burke by the Providence club of the Eastern league was re- ceived by Owner Fred A. Winkler of the Holyoke club yesterday after noon in a telegram from P H. Prindiville. treasurer of the Connec- ticut league. who is attending the annual meeting of minor league base ball magnates from all sections of the country, now in session in New York. It is not unlikely that an- nouncement will be made within a day or two of the drafting of several other members of the champion Paper city team by class 4 clubs. as Mir Prindiville went to New York for the purpose of ascertaining just how many players were booked for draft ing. instead of having to wait until the middle of the winter as was the case when Mike Mccormick was drafted by the Nashville team of the Southern league.
 Other drafts reported from New York are Pitcher Ira Plank of Nor wich by the Philadelphia Americans and Catcher Herman Schineel of Wa terbuTy by the Oakland. Cal. club. With the acquiring of Ira Plank. Connie Mack obtains 2 corner on the Plank family. as he already has Ira's brother Edward enrolled in his pitch ing stan. Two Eastern league teams wanted to purchase Ira. but could not agree with the Norwich manage ment upon terms. The Norwich player pitched the best ball of his career the past season with a record of winning twenty-six ont of thirty six games and standing third in the Percentase of games won He played with the Norwich club for five years.
 Herman Schincel is not likely to be wholly pleased al his jump to the Pacific coast as he vas vel. satisfied with his berth in Wsterburv and the Waterbury fans were equally well satisfied with the genial Ssckstou. However. there nay bs some con soIztfo7 for SchfnceI in the fact that the Oakland club will have to nav his trazs7ortstion to the n.her end of the oouEtry-

JACK HESS CALLED.
Brooklyn Has Drafted the Big Spring.
 field TWirler

Springfield. Oct 31.-Oficial verii, cation has at last been given to the rumor that the Brooklyn baseball club had drafted Jack Hess, the premier pitcher of the Pony outfit. The rumor has been going the rounds since just before the close of the baseball sea- son, but Manager Dan O'Neil had not given it much attention, as he had heard nothing from Secretary J. H. Farrell of the National association or from the Brooklyn club.
 Manager O'Neil has just received a letter from Secretary James H. O'Rourke of the Connecticut league. stating that Hess has been drafted Mir 0'Rourke is in New York attend ing the sessions of the National board and the National association. There he learned that Hess had been regu- larly drafted and immediately notified Manager O'Neil. who did not go down to the meeting this year.

WRESTLING
ANOTHER WRESTLER IN THE LIMELIGHT
Young Atlas is No Otber Than Olson--Jim Barnes Won the
 Match.

Springfield, Oct 31.-The mystery surrounding the identity of Young Atlas, the wrestler, was solved last night, when an officer came tc Gravess hall to attach the receipts taken in for the wrestling match be- tween Jim Barnes of this city and Young Atlas, whose residence tC local lovers of the sport was un, known. He was touted as wonder and coming champion, sort oi sultan's favorite, but when the legal papers arrived on the scene it was found that Young Atlas was no other than Charlie Olson of Hartford known in that city as the Parkville Giant.
 It appears that Olson, who is a really good wrestler, signed con tract with Alfred Anderson of Hart ford for five years. According to the contract the wrestler was to put himself in the hands of his manager who was to make the arrangements for the matches and have general charge of his wrestling work. To- wards the close of the wrestling sea son last spring, MT Anderson had a match in view for Olson and the lat ter did not care to take it on, so he said. Later, he was reported as going up to Boston and wrestling the same man under his own aus pices and he did not put his sman- ager wise. Olson got good trim ming in the bout.
 Olson was reported to be wrestling in Boston short time ago under the name of Young Atlas and when MT Anderson learned that he was to wrestle here last night his lawyer in Hartford ordered the receipts here last night attached and suit brought for breach of contract. It is under stood that MT Anderson does not bear any ill will towards the young wrestler, but believes that he needs a lesson and should be taught to re- spect a contract. Since he broke away from his manager, Olson has not been successful in his matches.
 According to the Springfield Union. Young Atlas completed his training in New York. That paper said the youngster is among the best of the crop of heavyweights who have come into the game within the last few years, and though but 21 years old, scales 1S0 pounds and has won number of contests with noted wrestlers. The same paper said that Caprimi, the Italian wrestler, was sent ahead to wrestle Barnes, being used as a sort of trial horse by Young Atlas.
 Barnes won the match last night. Olson got the first fall in seventeen and half minutes, Barnes took the second in eleven minutes, and the deciding fall in thirty seconds.

TROUBLES IN P0LODOM.
Boston Yesterday Looked Uncertain
 for Opening of League.

Says the Boston Herald :''It now looks as if it would be necessary to revamp the schedule of the National Roller Polo league owing to the sit- uation in this city. W. W. Hanna of New Britain. who was a delegate to adjust the situation here, found the Boston end is far from being in readi- ness. No word has yet been received from Jimmy Canavan. who is now at Erie. regarding bringing a team east. As a six-day bicycle race will be held at the Park square rink the week of November II, it will be Im- possible to have the games take place there that week. So it now looks as if the league would not open until Monday. November IS. Mr Hanna hopes to perfect an organization to take the franchise at once

THE PUGlLISTS
JUNK RUSSELL
 THE WINNER He Defeated Larry Connolly in Twelve Rounds-0ther Fight
 News.

After twelve rounds of fast but un-
 scientific boxing at the Winnisimmet
 A. C., Chelsea, last evening, Unk
 Russell of Philadelphia beat Larry
 Connolly of South Boston. The lat
 ter failed through lack of nerve. He had height, weight and reach on Rus sell. He started all right and from
 his showing at the beginning the
 fans looked to see him put Russell away. He jabbed and countered the
 Philadelphian hard on the face and jaw for round and a half and then he suddenly showed signs of weari- ness and there was no fore e behind his blows.
 Russell was the aggrassor all through. He kept boring in, con- tinually swinging both hands to the face and body. Connelly's long reach bothered him considerably, and the only time he could get in an effective punch was when he had backed Connolly into corner. Sev- eral times he shook Connolly up with swings to the face and jaw.
 Russell also began to tire in the third round, and in many of the rounds thereafter neither one was able to hand hard punch.
 The semi-fnal bout between Willie Riley and Kid Freeman, the rival featherweights of South Bos- ton, ended in the seventh round in a peculiar manner. Riley. who has become a very clever, shifty boxer, with good punch in both hands outboxed Freeman from the start. During an exchange in the middle of the seventh round Riley was taken with cramp in his left leg and fell to the floor. He was unable to get to his feet and the referee counted him out.
 The Packey McFarland-Kid Her man match, articles for which were signed Thursday, has the earmarks of being the most important event of its kind arranged this season. Packey has held the center of the: pugilistic stage in the Middle West ever since he placed himself under the management of Harry Gilmore, Jr., and he has beaten all corners and as he has not lost a decision his admirers think him the best light weight in the country, barring Joe Cans. He has been asked to fight Jimmy Burns (George Memsic), holder of the gift title, but refused because Burns would not agree to fight at the lightweight limit. He was matched to fight Tommy Mur- phy, the best of the eastern light weights, but Tommy was taken il, and the match was declared off.
 In Herman Packey will meet an opponent who, previous to his defeat by Joe Cans on last New Years day. was rated the best boy of his weight in the middle west. The fact that he was matched to fight Cans for $20,000 purse and the lightweight shows the opinion in which he was held by the Nevada fight promoters He has been out of the game since that event and therefore may have retrngraded a bit, still his friends believe him a much better fighter than Mcfarland and will string their bets behind him. The contest will be big bet ting event, with the odds slightly in favor of Packey because of his re- cent success and because of Her mans long layoff. The referee has not as yet been selected as Packey's choice for the job is objectionable to Herman.
