The BEST SPORTING PAGES IN new JERSEY = E";E:.-
SAM FITZPATRICK FLAYS
TOMMY BURNS WITH Pen

to say that Burns has already beaten
Sduires in less than one round; there
fore, why a second match, if not for
the purpose of gaining time or fur
nishing a s%top-gap. Then we come
to the alleged offer from Goldhelds,
which is the second obstacle put for.
ward by Burns to evade q match with
Johnson. A week has elapsed since this
astonishing c%ablegram was read to The
public, and yet, strange to say, it has
got no further han the stage at .he
Holborn Empire.
/ have made inquiries in all direc-
tions respecting this particular mes
sage, which should, if the affair is
business and not bluff, have reached
either Johnson or myself. Up to the
present, who knows anything about it?
Therefore, we can put the Goldfields
business down as bunkum, which
Burns knows it to be.
The agony is still being piled up,
for the next thing that appears is the
offer of a purse for Burns to box Lang,
of Australia. Is this a move made to
get Burns out of England. and, having
chased him to this country. is he going
to give us the scent on a trail to Aus
dltd L WOuid Inv W SdS that JOIlli
son has already defeated this same
Lang in very easy fashion. Taking
allahis into consideration, 1 ask, where
do the honor and glory come in for
Burns to meet a beaten man when he
has to travel 5000 miles to fight one
of Lang's calibre? ] would suggest
before he leaves England that Burns
has a return match with Jem Roche,

another go as Bill Squires. State
ments to the contrary aotwithstand-
ing, Johnson, as can be proved, has
had money posted with the Evening
Journal, of New York, for the past six
months to bind a match with Burns.
His stake is, as / have said, now UP
in England, and Burns makes no re-
Spouse.
In face of all this. there is surely nc
question as to who is today the gen.
uine champion of the world. johnson
is, as he has been all along, prepared
to box, and Bruins fails TO come for
ward. There is, therefore, only one
inference to be drawn, which is that
Burns is afraid.
From this date | therefore feel justi-
fed in claiming the championship for
Jack Johnson, who, / may add, is ready
to defend it at all times, and against
ali Corners, giving Burns the first
chance. Yours truly,
SAM FITZPATRICK,
(Manager for Jack johnson, Cham
pion of the World). May "a.
1t is evident that Sam is sore. His
argument against Burns's stand is like
a sieve full of holes. If he had Burns's
welfare to guard, and johnson wanted
a fight. do you think Fitzpatrick would
stop Tommy from reaping in the
dncats and give. Johnson a fight? Not
on your Merry Widow.

Rochester Has Protested and
Now Brooklyn Wants
Player Again.

Jersey City has got itself into a nice
kettle OF fish, and all because they
used Catcher Jack Butler while the lat
ter was the property of the New York
American League club. Now Rochester,
who was entitlfd to the services of this
player, has protested to President Pat
rick Powers. Along zones Brooklyn
now and wants the player returned, as
they are in reed of the catcher.
Incidentally, the New York American
League club, in its anxiety to help out
the Skeeters, has also got itself in bad,
as Brooklyn will undoubtedly bring the
matter before the National Commission
if the player is not returned to the club
at once. If the player is sent back TO
Brooklyn, then Rochester will have a
strong case against the Skeeters, and
Newark will find itself much stronger
in the standing. as Butler played only
against the Newark club.
Some time ago Rochester sold Pitcher
Finlayson to the Brooklyn club for
Catcher Butler and a cash bonus. The
deal was closed and Brooklyn asked
waivers on Butler. All of the National
and American League clubs waived

LEWISES, WILLIE AND
HARRY, IN BIG RING ACT.

NEW YORK, June 3.-The fight at
the National Athletic Club IN June 9
between Harry Lewis, the present well
terweight champion, and Willie Lewis,
who>recently returned from Paris, after
defeating the best men in Europe, COM
mands added interest, because it will
give the East a candidate to meet the
winner of the Ketchell-Papke go. The
Lewis boys will enter the ring weighing
in the n~eighborhood of $50 pounds, For
several years Harry Lewis has been
steadily growing heavier, and is about
to launch into the middleweight class.
Willie Lewis is lighter now than he has
been for several years.
Ketchell will be at the ringside when
the bell rings for the Lewis fight, and in
the event that he has Papke's scalp tied
to his belt, he will be offered a match
to meet the winner. 1t will be his first
appearance in the East. He is coming
East with jim Coffroth, the San Fran
cisco promoter.

TAKE IN
BOX OFFICE CASH
At WASHINGTON
Union League Club Did Not Pay
Salaries, SO TOssers Got
Busy.

WASHINGTON, June s.-Outlaw
baseball in Washington is probably
doomed. Because the Union League
club. it is alleged, has not paid the
players under contract as agreed upon.
yesterdays double-header at Union
League Park was only played after the
players were permitted to take charge
of the box office. 1t is understood that
the salaries paid the locals was for
six days work after the conclusion OF
the exhibition series prior to the OPEN
ing Of the league season.
Manager irwin. when seen today at
the Mades Hotel, was noncommittal.
He refused to discuss the affair in any
way. He intimated that he had moth
ing to do in regard to the paying of
the salaries and stated further that he
Knew nothing whatsoever about the
financial condition of the club. Neither
President Hart nor his son, Louis Hart,
secretary of the club, were at the ball
park during yesterdays games.
Players Frank Shaughnessy and Tom
Burke, of the Washington Club. We're
each placed in a ticket box at the park,
yesterday, and it is understood that
the gate receipts taken in amounted to
less than 500.
This amount, it is said. was divided
evenly between the Washington and
Philadelphia clubs, n then an eve
division was made among the players
of both clubs. 1t is understood that
each man was given about $3.50.
Several players were seen at Mades
Hotel, but Zach expressed his opinion
that it was doubtful whether the club
would continue doing business.
Our checks were made out and due
1 Sunday, and as each day rolled around
We were told that we would be paid
later, and so on, until yesterday the
boys decided that it was time that
something be done.
when we went to the park 1t was
found that there was no money in
sight, and we promptly attached the
box office receipts"

The Colonel was about again last
night at the Four Corners and he was
talking to Sergeant Tom Cornell,
Roundsman McRell and Jack Mcdonald
about the baseball game at Jersey City,
when suddenly the Colonel blurted ut:
Say, sergeant, ! want to tell you
something. Back in sc / was in the
game myself and | know what it is for
any pitcher to stand up and get
knocked out of the box. But to pre-
vent this a pitcher should get some

Snyder, the horseman, came along and
remarked: Speed, why you can get
that by buying a Keene horse"
The Colonel, not to be outdone. es-
sayed to remark that Snyder's remark
was a keene pun.
