RAGING FLOORED
 IN OLD KENTUCKY

Lexington, Ky, October 14-What is regarded by a majority of racing men as the death blow to racing in Kentucky, if the courts uphold the action, was struck here this afternoon by the state racing commission, when it passed the following resolution refusing to interfere with the present system of betting in force:
 "The commission declines to take any further action in regard to any change in the system of betting to be used upon tracks under the Jurisdiction of the racing commission"
 The resolution is signed by Col. Milton Young, Louis Deseognets and Col. E. F. Clay. Charles F. Grainger refused to vote, and Col. Jack Chinn, as chairman. had no vote. Thomas c. Mcdowell and Hal Woodford of this city and Barney Schreiber of St. Louis appeared before the commission as a committee from horsenen to ask that bookmakers be re- established, but to no avail.
 Joseph Rinock, president of the Latonia Jockey club, also appeared in the same capacity. He stated after the meeting tLat if Latonia opens Monday bookmakers will be used, and that the courts will have to settle the matter.

Jacksonville Meets Anniston.

Anniston. October H.-(Special. .)-The football game between the Alabama Pres- byterian college and the Jacksonville Nor nal college has been rearranged for next Saturday. and although Manager Spiers of the Anniston team stated this morn ing that the contract between the two teams specifies that the game shall be played in Jacksonville an effort is being made to have the teams play at the An niston park.
 The local college will weigh about 15O pounds on m average. The Normal team will likely exceed this, and the Teachers also have the advantage of the Preachers in that they have had better coaching, Luther Mccoy of Auburn having given the Presbyterlans their first lesson yes- terday afternoon. The Normal college las Michigan coach, and it's lineup numbers men who have been with Ala bama, Mercer and other good elevens The local college, however, is confident of making a good showing and wlil go into the game to win

CHICAGO MEETS
 THE TIGERS AGAIN

Chicago. October 14-The Chicago team expects to add a material sum to its earnings by two exhibition games to be played on the Chicago grounds next Sat urday' and Sunday with Detroit. Presi- dent Murphy has announced that all the receipts will be distributed among the players.
 Covaleski, 1eft-hand pitcher of the Philadelphia National league club, who shattered the hopes of the New York team by winning three games of the last New York and Philadelphia series, will be one of the pitchers, it is said.

lutely necessary, with the understanding that this action would not be precedent. but was taken merely in view of the un- usual circumstances. We trust that in- asmuch as Alabama has acceded to every one of your demands, although feeling them to be unjust and unfair. that you will not allow the question of a date to stand in the way but will at least do that much toward the securing of the game.
 We are inclosing letter addressed to the central board on officials of the na- tional rules committee, asking them to send us an umpire, and request that you will put in the date left blank and for ward1ft at your earliest convenience. Kindly let us hear from you as soon as practicable, and oblige. Yours very truly,

How Runs We're Made.

Evers scored chieagos first run Tn the first inning. He singled to center, took second on Schultes hit to left and raced home on Chances safe drive to center. A base on balls was primarily responsible for Chicago's second run. which came in the fifth King walked on four wide ones, went to second on Overalls sacrifice and scored on Evers. double. It was in the fifth also that Detroit made it's only bid for a score. Goughlin was safe when his gfourder to Steinfe1dt tool- an awkward bound and he went to third when McIn- tyre doubled into the left field crowd. But the needed hit was not forthcoming from either O'Learv or Ora wford, for the for mer flew out to Hoffman. who held Cough lin at third by a beautiful throw home, and Crawford struck out.

 The Pitchers Work.
 Overall for the second time pitched A masterlN game. Only three hits were made off him and one Of these would have been an easy out had the ball not taken an unexpected bound as 1t ap- preached Stenfeldt. He was wild at times, giving four bases on balls, but on the other hand his strike-Outs num- bered ten. One of these strike-outs, how ever. occurred when Rossman made his third swing al wild pitch, enabling him to reach first safely. Donovan, on the other hand. met with a very vigorous reception in the first inning when three consecutive hits sent Evers over the plate with the first run of the game. With the exception Of the fifth inning, when base on balls and Evers' double gave Chicago another run. Donovan managed to keep the hits scattered
 It Is probable however, that Chicago would have run up a larger score had it not been for the brilliant work of the Detroit lnheld. OLeary's speetaeu- lar catch of Tinkers "Texas leaguer,' far back of second base, was a feature of the game.

Receipts Comparatively Small.

The games were singularly free from squabbling and on only two or three oc- easions were the decisions of the um- pires questioned. At no time was it neces- sary for player to be sent to the bench to enforce discipline and good order. The series, however, created less interest ill the two cities most affected than that of last year, if the attendance may be taken as a guide. The paid admissions were only 62,232 for the five games and the receipts totalled but s94,4i6, as con- pared with S101 ,O0O last year. The at tendance at the final game this after noon was but 6210, with gross receipts of $9577. 50
 Of the money taken in, the players of Chicago, the winning team, get S21, ,669 and the Detroit players 1S,446. The club owners get Sl9.6sl apiece and the national commission $9949

National Leagues Advantage.


 When the last man on the Detroit sid went out today the pendulum of vie tory ceased it's swing betweel the two leagues. In 1903 the worlds championship emblem went to Boston of the American league, in the succeeding series New York brought it back to the National league. In the following year the Chicago White SoX' recaptured 1t for the younger or ganization. Last year the Chicago Cubs brought it back to the National leagu- by defeating Detroit. But this year the pendulum did not swing back and the flag remains as the proudest exhibit wh.c. President Murphy has to display at h. West Side bali park in Chicago.
 There is gloom in Detroit tonight. Tn black stripes which alternated with vel low in the scheme of decoration look like crepe hung out for the death of hopes that are gone.
 The Detroit Tiger unlike the one in the Limerick, has no smile on its face.
 The Spirit of Jennings.
 But while the crowd on the street cor ners and in the hotel lobbies murmur pessimistieally, there is one bold spirit which does not know the meaning of defeat. This dauntless heart beats in the breast of Manager Hugh Jennings of Detroit He believes in his team-bc- lieves that it will yet prove it's superiority over all-comers-and he does not contem- plate past defeats but looks forward to another year and another struggle, which may have another result Jennings was not beaten today until Schmidtfs foul in the ninth had found secure and final lodgment in Kings mtt. Through the fierce uphill battle this afternoon he stood on the coaching line off first base coaching the runners on every move and spurring the batsmen on to make their best effort. No success of the rival team and no failure of his own club dampened his determined cheerfulness. There was never falterng note in his well-known cry of "Ee-yah" and any slight advan- tage set him to executing his peculiar war dance.
 A feature of the game was Schmidt $ recovery of his throwing arm which had not been working well during any pre- Vious game. Chicago was not able to steal d base on him for the first time during the series. He caught Steinfeldt trying to steal second by yards; he han dled two bunts in clean fashion, retiis-
