JOHN L. TO RETIRE.
Former Champion to Spend Re.
mainder Of Days on a Farm.
Special Disoatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
MILWAUKEE, August 6-John L. Sui
lfvan, who held the championship OF the
world for many years, and was never de-
feated under London prize ring rules, has
decided to retire from public life for good
and settle down on a small farm near
Boston, there to enjoy life with his fam
lily. John L. has been touring the coun-
try under the management Of Frank
Hall the past few years doing q vaude-
Vile stunt, and in that time has accu-
mulated a fortune. 1t is just six years
since Mr. Hall took hold Of Sullivan, and
July 1, 1911, they will separate as BUSH
ness partners, probably for all time, as
Mr.. Hall intends to settle down in Chi
cago, while John L. will go back east. 1t
is the intention of the ex-champion to
conduct a physical culture place on his
farm similar to the one established by
William Muldoon near New York city
John L. has ideas Of his own regarding
the development of athletes and the
building up of q business man, and he
intends to follow them when he estab-
fishes his place near Boston. John l..
champion Of the world back In 1882.
But there is one thing that can be said
for him, and that is he was always on
the square, and for that reason the pub
lie supported him in every way possible.
During the last few yeau John L. stop
ped drinking entirely, and during the
Jeffries-Johnson contest at Reno. New,
reconciliation was brought about be-
tween the big fellow and Bat Masterson.
also Jim Corbett, with whom he had
been at outs for many years. At the
present time John L. is touring tho far
west, and he will gradually work east
again. The fans will be sorry to SEQ him
disappear from public life, but they will
wish him every success In his new VEN
ture, and wish him long life.

Has More Speed
Than Had Amos RuSie

Not since the days of Amos
Rusie, the famous pitcher of the
New York Giants, in the early
nineties, has the game produced
a pitcher with the speed of John
son. Until Johnson made his ap-
pearance in fast company no
pitcher had ever been seen in
the big circuit who had anything
like the speed that Rusie pos
sessed.
For a year or so there was
some doubt as to whether John
son had as much speed as Rusie,
but the players who remember
Rusie and have seen Johnson in
action are unanimous in the
opinion that the Idaho wonder
has more on his ball, to use a
base ball phrase, than Rusie ever
had.
Unlike johnson, Rusie had a
very short arm, and he relied
more upon a fast-breaking curve
than he did on his speed. What
is more, Rusie worked with an
effort. 1t was a strain for him
to pitch game, and it was this
that ended his career rather sud-
denly.
johnson, on the other hand,
works with ease. He never
seems to be letting himself out
to the utmost. His arm works
like a we'll oiled piece of ma
chinery, and even for the unini-
tiated he looms up as one of the
most natural slabmen that the
game has ever produced.

DETROIT, Mich, August 6.-Ty Cobb
returned to the game today after two
days absence. in which he brought down
the abuse Of thousands on his head.
The day was not without incident on
the part Of Tyrus. He discovered that
among those who tried to '1dd' him was
a negro. This colored rooter sat in left
field bleachers. and Cobb vaulted the
fence, jumped into the crowd and made
swing at the negro. He connected with
the darky's head. and before another
blow was struck policeman jumped be-
tween the player and colored man. He
induced Cobb to return to the field and
hustled the negro out Of the park.
Cobb reported for morning practice and

has been shown in the past in quelling
disturbancesin the Detroit ranks. talked 1t
over with Ty and Davey Jones. They set
tied their differences, and Jennings al
lowed Cobb to resume his position in CEN

Ty got two hits out of three times at
bat today, stole two bases, scored a run
himself and drove In two others for his
team.
On each appearance he received a big
ovation from the crowd In this recent
unpleasantness with Davey Jones, who
has the unhappy faculty Of getting "in
bad" with nearly everybody, Cobb adj

to play yesterday, but Jennings benched
him for the day. because he had refused

press took a sudden fall out Of the propo-
sition and the movement has rather fiat
tened out. The petition asked that con-
certed action be taken by the fans to de-
pose Duffy and to put Doc White in his
place.
Comiskey was much put out over the
attempt Of the fans that pretended to be
his friends and criticised the petition Sc
verely.
Manager Duffy has been doing the best
he could and am perfectly satisfied with
him. It Is hard proposition to get Win

Johns0n's Reach
Measures II 81 Inches

Ever since Walter Johnson
broke into fast company oppos-
ing players have marveled at his
great speed.
With an easy motion Johnson
seems able to send the sphere
through space at such terrific
pace that even though the bats
man knows that the ball will
come on a straight course he is
unable to meet it with his stick.
Johnson gets his speed by rea-
son of his wonderful reach. He
has longer arms than any other
pitcher in the country, and pitches
with the least effort.
When his arms are stretched
out they measure 7734 inches
from finger tips to finger tips.
This is 234 inches longer than
,Jefries' reach and 534 inches
longer than Jack Johnson's.
When he releases a ball after
having wound up this long right
arm it goes through space with
the speed of a bullet.
Few, indeed, are the pitchers
who can Score strikeout after
strikeout without resorting to
the use of curves or spit balls,
as does johnson. He has fire.
quently struck out three men on
nine pitched balls without ever
using a curve.
1t is Johnson's speed that
makes him one of the most mar
velous pitchers the game has
ever produced, and it is his great
long arm that gives him his
speed.

Special Dispasch to The Star.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. August Eff
there is a friendly attachment between
the Phtllies and the Cubs it was not
noticed today, when in the opening
game of the series Dooin's men roughed
and cuffed their rivals for nine innings
and won by the fat score Of to 2.
Seldom in the memory Of the oldest
inhabitant have the Cubs been NAL
treated SO effectively as they were to-
day. The Quakers got the jump on
them in the nrst inning and Kept tor
menting them to the finish.
For team that aspires to the cham
pionship the Cubs looked quite sad, but
that is the way Of team that has a
bad day.
The Phillies looked correspondingly
good, yet no man with q perfect formed
conk is laying his hard-earned en-
graved paper that the Quakers Will
beat out the team they humbled today.
The Phillies made nine vicious drives
for a total Of fifteen bases off the
giant Overall, who lasted only few
minutes, and Mcintyre became his sue
cessor. A man much concerned in the
fall Of the Cubs once was a bondman
Of that team. He is Fred Luderus,
the man who entered when Foxen got
excited. His triple with the two men
on bases completed the Generalization
Of Overall in the opener, and he made
A fielder. Frederick the Great. was
the master Of the Cub batters. He
handled all kinds OF difficult throws
f1awlessly, and in the fourth choked
OF two-base hit when he stopped
Schulte's warm one with a single in
divtdual hand.
Bates Hits Well.
Bates, with triple, a single and a pass,
made three trips to the plate, while
Doolan kept up his good hitting by
smashing out double and a single.
Mikes record is five hits In two days, in
GLIDING four two-base swats Everybody
shared In the hitting except MCGEE and
Moran. The formers batting percentage
suffered little for he had only one Official
time at bat. Nottingham walked twice,
scored run and batted In another with
sacrifice drive So his inside maneuvers
were by no means bad. Moren pitched
artful ball for the winners.
In the first eight innings he allowed
only four hits, two of them being inf1eld
taps. Chicago punched two robust singles
and a double in the ninth and picked up
it's second run.
Lew gave a game exhibition In the
eighth. when he walked the first three
scoring. Not an error besmirched the
Phillies' fielding Besides Luderus, Walsh.
Doolan, Bates and MCGEE were espec-
tally stunning In the field.

year, 2 to 1.
stars aroused wide interest, q large gal
lery following the match in the after
noon. Travis displayed all his well known
head work, but for once lacked his mario
putting mallet, his work on the green's
not being up to the standard he played
when he beat Charles Evans. IT., the
former western champion, last Thursday.
Gardner played determined game, and
although three down at the tenth hole
in the morning he was only one down
at the end OF the morning round. Both
played Indifferent golf at times In the
afternoon. and the match resolved itself
into a see-saw affair. Gardner squared
at the seventh hole and was one up at
the eighth.
Three times after this the match was
even, and three times Travis had lead
of i. He was dormie one at the eight

had to play out short, Gardner souaring

four-foot putt. giving the Chicago player
the victory.
