POST-SEASON PLAY
WFaneIe Among Cubs Over
Division Of Money Threat
ems World Series

CHICAGO, Oct 21.-Tho Chicago
Worlds Champions arc money mad.
and as a result of a row over the di-
vision of the players share OF the re-
ceipts OF the recent worlds series are
badly disorganizee The row among
the players coming after tho accusa-
tion made by the players that they
did not get a square deal in the world S
series. may lead 10 the abolition of the
annual post-season games between the
pennant winners in the two major
leagues
The truth Of the matter is that the
Cubs have gone money mad. and the
fans Of Chicago fear that this will
wreck one Of the greatest pieces Of base
ball machinery ever organized.
The trouble in the Chicago Club was
caused by the declaration of Kroh and
Durham that they will never play with
the Cubs again, because after being
promised a fun share, S140O they re-
reived only $500 each. Manager Chance
is not to blame. as he voted to give
both Of the players a full share, but he
was opposed by at least 20 Of the other
players
The National Commission IS still
wrestling with the problem to fasten
the guilt for the worlds series ticket
mess onto somebody's shoulders. and
then oust them from organized base
ball. The commission is acting on its
own Initiative and solely in the inter-
ests OF clean sport Whether the su-
preme court Of baseball viii be able 10
get the guilty parties with the goods
on is a matter Of some doubt. as it has
been hard to get positive evidence in
the ticket scalping scandal That some
body should be soaked. the Commits
sioners fell satisfied But the question
OF who is responsible for ono scalner
having 500 seats and another 900 of
the choice pasteboards is difficult TO
tell

Secretary Thomas will be summoned

siole for the fact that tho scaipers dom

round OF their battle before Jeffries'

Kaufman was much the bigger man.
Mustain owned up TO $50, while Kauf-

seemed to realize that he had attempt

second round he smiled and shook
his head In a puzzled sort of way

tackle; Benbrook, left guard; Schultz
(capt), center; Embs, right guard;
crumpacker. right tackle; Ranney,
right end; Wasmund, quarter; Doug

For the first time since he took tho

lot of stiffs that any one or half

in a few punches. Johnson Is no sim,
he's a classy dinge and knows as
much about the game as Burns.
1t ought TO be good fight and not
q short one-and Burns ought to win.
The dinge will have height and
weight. he will have shade the better

the white man TO outpunch and out
game him. And the punch Is always
at least three-quarters OF the battle.
While II is true that Tommy has
been trimming lot of dubs. the work
has given him experience, taught him
new moves and above all has endowed
him with that supreme confidence thaS
