finishing touches. For a boy to go
abroad the first time and win three big
races behind the motors, finish second
four times m third once is no small
achievement. He should give a fine ex-
hibition tomorrow night at the Velo-
drome, and il John Bedell doesn't have
any breakdowns he should make Wiley
go some.
The professional spirits will bring
Kramer and Clarke in action, and they
will be opposed by the entire contingent
of money-chasers, including Fogler,
Fem, Anderson, the Bedells. DeMara,
Rupprecht and others. Hot sprints and
close finishes are assured, as both the
races are short. One is a half-mile
handicap and the other a mile open,
just the kind for hair-raising battles
between Kramer and Clarke.
The amateurs will nave a one-sixth
mile record trial, in which each will
ride a lap alone to see who makes the
best time, and a two-mile handicap.
The record trial alone should be a
thriller, while the ard is so well
balanced that a fine night of sport is
promised.

Uses to have the same timers and judg IS
who aways act at amateur athlete
championship meets.
There is great rivalry among track
and training committees to get all the
star athletes. 1t is up to Thomas
Knowles to get the champion sprinters
and Tommy has the promises from
Lawson Robertson, the trainer of tie
Irish-American A. c., and Bernie Wei
ers, trainer of the New York A. c., that
these two trainers will send all their
sprinters to town for old-time sake.
Entries for the 300-yard run for fire
men, letter carriers and policemen are
up to the chairman, George Baechtle,
to see that he gets the best I'M of
this city. There is a prize for the mem
Der of track and training committee
who gets the most entries.
The committee is striving to beat last
years entry list, which numbered $50.
They promise to make $50, as they are
attending all games. Besides, Harry
Hillman is helping them. Harry took
entry blanks to the national champion
ships. But he has not returned, SO they
do not know who he has secured of
the new champions. If any of them
have come East Harry will have them
for the knights games.

gether the following cracks, who have
promised him that they will positively

CoNNOR SIGNS
WITH TRI-STATE LEAGUE,

Tom Conner is now a Tri-State
League umpire. The former Eastern
League arbitrator, who declared that
Fat Powers's staff of referees were in
revolt because of the alleged failure
of the executive of the league to uphold
them, and was released by the Mara
thon chief, has many friends identified
with baseball, and they will be glad to
learn that he has again returned to the
fold.
1t is we'll known that the sage of
Jersey City was very much ~displeased
because of the attitude of Conner and
declared that he never failed to give
the umpires under his control the
proper amount of encouragement to
render decisions fearlessly, no matter
how many magnates were offended.
However. it is said that Tom Kelley,
by many looked upon to be a good
umpire, took Connor's view of affairs,
and this led to his suspension. The
signing of Conner by President Carpen-
ter's organization is looked upon as a
vindication by his friends.

George Wiley's recent triumphs in
Europe at the motor-paced cycling
game have attracted unusual attention
to his 1909 American debut, which will
take place at the local Velodrome cycle
rect tomorrow night. Wiley has been
secured to ride a ifteen-mile paced race
against John Bedell. and the event will
serve the double purpose of reintroduc-
ing Wiley to local followers of the sport
as well as bringing back motor-paced
racing as part of the weekly program
here. The race will be one of a card
of five. the others being two profess
s.oral and two amateur sprints.
Wiley is fast rounding into one of the
Lest motor-paced riders in thu business.
Being a little chap, he is admirably
adapted to the game. He is low down
behind the steersman, and accordingly
has the minimum of wind resistance to
combat. He has only been at the paced
game a year, starting in last season
under the tutelage of the veteran Tom
Eek. He at once showed an adapta-
bility to it, however. n his recent
campaign of Europe has put on the

play happened. Zimmerman sent a

For three innings the Hustlers went
out in one, two, three order. They

Not so with the Tigers. 1t was one,

Jimmy had started for second. Before

1t was lard luck, but Bud walloped
to right and Mr.. Osborne made his first
error in his Rochester career by let

Benny Meyers looked over what Cy

mentally counted two more for the
Tigers. but that Osborne person. going
sidewise on the dead run, captured the

Things began to look bad along for
Mr.. Barger, and on went all the steam
he had. 1t was just enough to fan Joe

FIELDER JONES
WILL GET IN GAME
Is Mentioned as 1910 Manager
of Boston, St. Louis and
Washington.

NEW YORK. Aug. 24.-Negotiations
are pending. it is announced here,
whereby Fielder Jones, former man
ager of the Chicago American League
Baseball Club, who retired from the
game last fall to GO into the lumber
business in oregon, is likely to figure
as the manager and part owner next
season of one of three major league
clubs. Jones, who is credited with
having made a fortune in the West,
has made a definite offer for the pur-
chase Of the Boston National League
club and it is understood here that
the only obstacle in the way of his
procuring p~roprietorship is that the
combined American League clubs
would protest his alliance with the
rival organization. Jones is said to
have an option on a controlling in
terest in the st. Louis American
League club. 1t is known that his
close personal friend, Robert l..
Hedges. the present owner, has made
him an attractive proposition to as
sumo control of the St. LOUIS team.
In recognizing the Washington
American League Club, which involves
the release of Manager Cantillon, Pres
ident Ban Johnson is reported to be
anxious to have Jones assume the
control of that team at a big salary
and with a slice of stock in part pay
ment. The Washington club is said
to be ready to close with Jones at
once, allowing him to name his own
terms. Meanwhile Jones is still the
property of the Chicago American
League club, having been placed on
the reserve list, and cannot sign as
a player with any other club in or
ganized baseball. 1t is believed to
b. quite certain that Chicago will not
permit Jones to associate with any
other club without asking big money
for his release. \

STALLINGS HAS NO
KICK WITH O'LOUGHLIN,

CHICAGO, Aug. 24.-Some vigorous
denying was done yesterday by Umpire
Silk O'Loughlin and Manager Stallings,
of the New York Americans. The for
mer said he did not believe Frank Far
rell had been quoted correctly. and took
the latter's alleged assertion that SILK
had been prejudiced against the New
York team as a joke.
Il call plays the way l see them
said O'Loughlin. and every one who
knows me knows that to be a fact. l
haven't a thing against President Far
rell or any Of his payers. l was right
in calling Parent safe at third base
Saturday. I am not prejudiced against
the club or any player, and l believe
Farrell will deny that he ever said the
things attributed to him."
Manager Stallings hurried to the
office of President Ban Johnson and
vowed he had not wired Farrell to the
effect the New York team had been
robbed.

The only inning that the Hustlers
showed what was in them was the
seventh. The seventh is the lucky in
ming up here. The Tigers then had the
Hustlers by a , too hold. The Cancel
ties made a strong bid this time, but
the Iron Man was too strong for them,
though his Woodworking opponents did
make three nits in a row off him.
For most other pitchers but the Iron
Man this session might have been dis
astrous. After Simmons had flied to
Kelly Batch made the Hustlers' third
hit. Holly pushed one to centre, send
ing Batch TO second. Erwin lifted one
near Sharpe. Bud or Schlafly could
have easily caught the ball. but they
got mixed. BY some quick thinking
and equally quick execution Larry
threw to Louden. forcing Holly. Batch
was on third and Barger was up. Man
-ager Camel selected himself to break
up the game, but he more than met
his match in McGinnity, who made
Long John do his country-famous
stunt by popping up an easy n for
Louden.
That was the only troublesome spot
in the Tigers march to triumph.
All told McGinnity allowed but six hits,
while his charges made even. Two of
them were by Eddie Zimmerman, who
is taking Manager Wolverton's place at
third while he Isl nursing his injured
shoulder in Philadelphia. One of these
hits was a home run There was not
an error to mar the Tigers play in the
field. while three were registered
against the Hustlers. Even with a
perfect fielding record for the day the
leaders would have been beaten
roundly.
Billy Louden got busy with the ia
nous Cy Barger in the very first round.
He waited out the long fellow, and be-
fore he knew it he was on first base
because he had been hit by a pitched
ball. This seemed to unbalance Cy. and
Johnny Kelly tried the waiting tactics
and was rewarded with a free ticket.
Larry Schlafy tried the same game,
but Cy pitched for all that was in him
and put them in the groove. so Larry
hit one to Pattee. The latter did all
right with the ball, fllnging to Holly,
forcing Kelly at the middle bag, but
the Hustler shortstop vas too anxious
TO make a double and he threw away
over the dome of simmons, and in
came Louden for the first tally. The
