LEAGUE
MAGNATES MEET
IN NEW YORK
Powers Likely to Be Reelected
fredericksburg Big Fig
ure at Annual Confab.

Eastern League magnates are in an
nual session today at New York to
decide matters upon which the desti-
mics OF that sterling organization arc
to be founded in the grand rally Of
1903. The meeting is being held at the
Hotel Victoria, where some time
honored battle-scarred heroes of the
great national pastime have. fought
their battles. There Is more than ordi-
nary interest in the meeting because
of the fact that George L. Slallings is
supposed to declare himself as to his
managerial intentions. 1t is safe to
predict that ne will not leave Newark
unless he is offered a salary which 40
man could conscientiously turn down.
1t is well known that Stallings believes
that he can ultimately make some
money in Newark. lie is popular in
this city, and il he does conclude that
the call OF the H~ighlanders Is to be
accepted, it will be only after the
greatest financial Inducements are Of
tered.
In the Eastern League doings of to-
day Stallings will be the chief figure.
1t can be said that the Newark man
ager has not only received offers from
the H%ighlanders, but from at least two
other major league clubs. Right now
it can be said that Stallings is satisfied
to remain away from the lures of
major league balloon. He has been
thare and knows that the fans in the
larger cities are poor losers, expecting
that a pennant-winner should be re-
turned after the battle of every year.
Sunday baseball Is undoubtedly the
thing which keeps Stallings IN Newark,
and that Sunday baseball is more than
liable to make up for any deficiencies
that capable manager is liable to. He
can have the Highlander job il he
wants it-that is conceded-but the
fact remains thai Stallings Is enamored
with Newark and it would not be at
all surprising il he remained with
Newark. However, the Eastern League
meeting today will tell the story.
1t is in the tables thai p, t. Powers
will be reelected president of the East
ern. Stallings may ask some questions
about Newark being nosed out of Sec
ond place. However,, such charges
against Baltimore, or any other team,
do not tend to make the national game
more popular, and it is probable that
all will be serene.

SULLIVAN KNOCKS OUT
CRAWFORD in 5 ROUNDS.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 27.-Tommy
Sullivan. of Lawrence, Mass, knocked
out Tommy Crawford, of Frisco, in the
fifth round at the West End Club last
night. Crawford fought in an open
fashion, with his arms spread, which
just invited Sullivan's lefthand hooks.
One of the blows dropped Crawford an
instant before the bell rang, ending the
fourth round. The Frisco middleweight
went to his corner dazed.
AS he came up for h fifth round
Sullivan poised himself and caught
Crawford with another left on the jaw
and the latter went down. He de-.
clined to take any count and was UP
in an instant, only to go down again
from a right on the chin.
This time Crawford took a count of
five, but was dropped again for a count
of nine. He got up and was just about
to raise his hands to defend himself
when Sullivan swished his right across
again. Crawford's head struck the
floor with a thump and the referee and
Sullivan Carried him to his corner,
where he quickly revived.
Jack Egan, the former amateur mid
dleweight champion, acted as referee
and gave an intelligent Interpretation
of the Marquis of Queensbury rules, re-
ducing clinching to a minimum.

"CUBS A BETTER TEAM"
SAYS HUGH JENNINGS

SCRANTON, Pa. Oct. 27.-Hugh Jen-
nings, manage of the champion De-
troit American League team, arrived
at his home in this city yesterday, and
at once began the active practise of
law with his brother, w. A. Jennings.
Jennings got a. royal welcome from
his legion of friends here. He made
no excuses for the failure of mis- team
to make a better showing against the
Cubs in the recent worlds series.
"Chance's men were a better team
said Hughey. who, now that he has
won two pennants for Detroit, Is not
satisfied until he wins a worlds cham
pionship.
Jennings was the principal speaker
at a Democratic rally in Jessup last
night, taking the stump in the interests
of the county ticket in general and j.
j. Durkin, candidate for county COM
missioner, and j. J. OfNeil, candidate
for judge.

Speed in baseball.
Even with the November winds but

YOU ever stopped and reflected the rapid

YOU will notice that everything has
been done to quicken the game. speed
has been added 10 this national sport.
IL you will recall this one fact you Will
understand. Years ago a foul ball was
a foul and nothing less. Now it's a
strike, and why? Simply to shorten
the length of the game. Other cur
tailments have been made for the same
object. Years ago base runners did
nothing marvellous in the speed line
Now team owners don't want a man
unless he possesses speed. Isn't that
true? OF course it Is.
Speed, Speed, Speed.
It is the universal cry in all branches
Of our athletic world. A pugilist may
have a punch that would fell a bull.
He may have a sleep producer In both
hands. He may have the physique of
a giant, the character Of an Ahdiel but
unless he has speed he is an Abel. Sure
ly he must be a dead one. Lovers of
speed make heroes of the boys who cut
under the wire ahead of the others.
And so 1t goes. Americans love speed,

accusation that America Is speed

FINE ENTRY LIST FOR
NATIONAL HORSE SHOW

NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-In spite of the
increasing popularity of the automobile,
the entry list of the national horse
show, which begins November 8 at
Madison Square Garden, shows as
large a number Us last year, and the
new blood is greater than in many
years. More than fifty new exhibitors
will be in the ring. and Canada will be
mere with a large string for the first
time in some years., while d number OF
foreign horses will be seen for the first
time
There is a great increase in some of
the classes, while others have fallen off.
The most notable improvement is in the
thoroughbred classes, three times as
many stations as last year being en-
tered, among them being several from
the Breeding bureau of the Jockey
Club, in spite of the black eye given to
racing this year. In the class for thor
oughbred saddle horses there are TWEEN
ty entries, and some of them are sum-
mer show winners, which have been
making records down the line.
The classes for ladies' saddle horses
a remarkable increase in number
of entries, showing that riding among
that sex is growing more popular. Two
classes have been added for ladies this
year, and all-the old and the new
nave filed with more horses than last
year, so that it is more thar likely that
some preliminary wedding out contests
will be necessary.
The greatest loss is in the breeding

ROADS IN TROUBLE.

The failure of some of the trans

the orders of the interstate COM
merce commission to install complete
tariff files for the use of the public
by October / in the Denver offices.
has caused unusual activity on the
part of the local officials during the
past few days to obey the order and
escape heavy fines.
The Burlington succeeded in open
ing its files to the public this morn
ing and is the only road that has
yet been able to comply with the
law.
A. j. Saunders, a tariff expert in
the Chicago offices of the Burling-
ton. has been transferred to Denver
and has taken charge of the work
in connection with the new depart
ment. 1t requires III big drawers
with 351 compartments to hold the
immense stack of tariffs. of which
there are over 5000, containing sew
eral hundred thousand different in
dividual rates and combinations.
All of the roads posted the notices
to the effect that the tariffs were on
file in compliance with the law and
they are now working night and day
to really get them in place
1t was stated at the offices of the
Rock Island that the company was
awaiting instructions from Chicago
as to the method of handling the tar
IFS and that it was not known yet
whether an expert would be sent
