FIGHTER IS NOT
 BLAMED FOR DEATH

Philadelphia, December 20.-A prize fighter takes the same chance of death as football player when he enters a contest, said Coroner Ford today in dis charging John Kalme, young pugilist, from custody and exonerating him from all blame in the death of John Emhof whose skull was fractured in a bout at the Nonpareil Athletic club last Fri day night.
 we dent hold a football team re- sponsible for a death and I see no req son to hold a prize fighter" added the coroner.
 The bount which ended fatally was between Enlho of, who is better known as Kid" Gardner, and Kalme, known in the prize ring as Johnny Kain,' in the fifth round when both boys were apparently on even terms Kalme struck Emhof a straight-arm blow or the jaw. Emhof fell like a log and hi: head struck the floor. He was carrieG from the ring and after attempts tc revive were made, he was hurried tc hospital where he died the next day A host of young fighters with then seconds testified that the blow whicf Emh of received was not hard enough to floor a child. They could not tel what made Emhof fall. Charles Mar kus. who qualified as an expert wit ness as manager of boxers, said tha the bloW was mere tap.

PITCHERS GROW
 MORE EFFECTIVE

Uew York, December 20.-A baseball statistician here has figured out that since 1872, when records were first kept, 4OOO batsmen have faced major league pitchers and only 45O of them have shown an average of 300 or more. Ever since the National league was or ganized in 1876 the effectiveness of the pitcher has gradually increased in spite of rules passed to bring about more batting. Nine balls originally en- titled a hitter to base, but the num- Der was cut to six, then to four, while one year the strikes were increased from three to four. The records seem to show that in recent years the bat ting was decreased in strength until last season the pitchers had greater advantage than before.
 That the average manager believes that the success of his team depends chiefly upon his pitchers Is shown by the fact that twice the number of tyirlers is carried nowadays than was the case in 1895. Then three or four first class pitchers were sufficient, whereas now major league team is not considered well equipped unless seven or eight boxmen are on the pay roll
