BIG RUSH FOR SEATS.
Battling Nelson and Dick Hyland to
Meet Tonight.

San Francisco. May 29.-Judging
from the appearance of the ticket rack
there will be a big crowd at Jimmy
Coffroth's Mission street arena this
evening when Battling Nelson and
fighting Dick Hyland will fight for the
lightweight championship of the
world AS usual on the eve of the
battle both men express themselves
as being confident that they viii win.
It'll whip Dick in one round, IL I
can, but I won't STALL" was the bat
tiers laconic comment.
1T looks like my only chance at
the championship, so you can bet
Hyland. The betting continued heavy
today with Nelson a 10 to choice.
Considerable California money is be-
ing wagered on Hyland. If the young
Californian should win he would
place himself in line to make a big
fortune and also bring to the Golden
state the only championship title
son.
The big event is scheduled to go
forty-five rounds, beginning at 8
o'clock sharp, Eddie Smith of Oak
land will be the referee and the men
will fight according to straight rules,
which provides that they may break
away so long as there is one arm free
and neither man is holding. Smith
says that he will not pry the men
apart so long as they obey his orders
to break. He has had talks with both
and they understand his instructions
in regard to this roughly.
Deep interest is being shown in the
contest throughout the west and Man
ager Coffroth said this morning that
he expected a larger delegation from
other points than he has had for any
holiday fight in years.

SUNDAY.

Des Moines, IA, May 2S.-In a
pretty game here yesterday, the Lead
ers succeeded in defeating the Tail
enders by a score of 8 to 2. Joe
Clarke, Des Moines holdout pitcher
pitched for Des Moines and consider
ing his lack of spring training he gave
creditable performance. Des
Moines scored the first two runs in
the fourth inning. Bader led off with
a single and reached second when
Davidson dropped Mattick's fly. Both
runners advanced a base on Dryers
infield out and scored when Dalton
singled. The third run for the home
team was scored in the sixth inning
when Bader doubled and scored on
Dryers single.
Both of Lincoln's scores came in
the fifth inning. Waldron singled
and Thomas was given a life on Me
hoff's error. Both men were advanced
on Davidson's infield out and scored
when Gagnier hit a slashing single to
left center. The feature of the game
was Waldron's long running catch of
a line drive which robbed Niehoff
of two Dagger.
The score:

Sioux City Tribune: Is the Des

and can it hold the pace? Uncle
John appears to have a cracking
fine pitching staff and several good
ball players on his club, but is there
one baseball general in the bunch
that can teach the tricks of inside
play? Dick Cooley, at least, answers
in the negative. Dick points to the
fact that Topeka has trimmed Des
Moines five out of seven games to
date; he says he is claiming no pen
nant, but he declines to include the
Iowa capital in the reckoning.
Wichita Beacon: Rhody Hendrix
has been twirling a fine article of
ball for Topeka Rhody always did
look good, but until this season,
somehow or other. he has always
fallen just a few inches short of the
proper pitching stature, If one might
call it that. In other words he has
had a habit of pitching just good
enough to lose. Cooley had the
proper confidence in him and he
has shown that he has developed.

AMERICAN LEAGUE GAMES.
Detroit 2. Chicago 1.

Detroit, May 29.-Yesterday's game
went IA innings and was a brilliant ex-
hibition On both sides. The two third
basemen largely determined the result,
O'Leary's hitting being responsible for
both Detroit runs, while Partell, by al
most impossible plays, repeatedly cut
off other Detroit scores.
The eleventh was the only inning in
which Chicago failed to have a base
runner on, fifteen of the visitors being
left on bases. Burns was more steady
than Killian but the latter was very
strong in the pinches.
Detroit won it with two out. Cobb,
who had forced Crawford, stole second
and scored on single to left by
O'Leary. Atz had a chance to win in
the thirteenth but was thrown out at
the plate trying to score from first on
