fries had been fioored and stopped the
fight at the request of Jeff's seconds
when it was apparent that the boiler
maker was still able to stand up.
Richard, admitting that Jeffries
technically lost on a foul and also
that he didn't count ten seconds after
the white man had been put down for
the third time, has decided officially
that Johnson scored a knockout and
that persons who bet that the fight
would end that way won their money.
Taking all these facts into considera-
ton therefore many we'll posted fol-
lowers of pugilism declare that there
can be no room for doubt as to Rick
ards incompetency. That he was
clearly ratified and did not know what
action to take at critical moments
goes without saying.

WAS A CRIME.
Barney Oldfieid Thus Terms the
Sending of Jeifries Into the Ring
Against Johnson.

1T was crime to have sent JEFF
fries in the ring with Johnson"
Barney Oldfield, worlds champion
automobilst, was talking with group
OF sporting celebrities recently.
For the past five or SIX years |
have been spending my winters in Los
Angeles, and most of my time out
there was spent around Jeff's place
with his partner, Jack Ripper. and
the eX-champion. jeff was so full of
rheumatism a couple f years ago
that he could handy play pool. At
that time it was joke with him if
any one even suggested that he would
fight again.
"Jeffries is several years older than
am, but | guess ! have travelled
as fast as any of them. And that fast
reference does not necessarily mean
on the racing cars either. l can drive
my "Blitzen' Benz far faster than
drove years ago, but 1t is a different
proposition from fighting. Driving a

Gle nearly as fast as | did years ago.
and as for being able to stand a good
punch or two in the stomach or
mouth, why | would do lay-down
stunt that would make the picture ma
chine man have chills and fever.
"Jeffries not only could not stand
the blows, but his quick thinking
machinery was on the blink, and there
was no combination of thought and
action with him. His hands never
knew his head was supposed to tell
them what to do. Take it from me,
boys, a professional athlete has got to
hang on to his brains and nerve. If
ever lose my nerve or my noodle,
some one can hire a swell day labor
err for $125 per by applying to my
shack in Toledo"

Clevelal1
In Cincinnati, where Louis He'll
broner has long been the leading
light among the scouts, scores of
promising youngsters have been found.
Heilbroner, together with Mccarthy,
Tommy Corrigan and bid" McPhee,
has been credited with finding Besch-
er, Mitchell, Paskert, Hoblitzel and
Downey-all headliners on Griffith
troupe.
Arthur Irwin is the boss scout for
the Highlanders, having Duke Farrell
for his assistant. Twenty-Five years
ago Irwin was the star shortstop for
the old Providence and Philadelphia
clubs, while Farrell carried the ban
ner as backstop for the Washington,
Boston and New York clubs.
Many Highlanders of the present
season owe their berths to Irwin and
Farrell. Among the men thus ac-
quired are Ford, Vaughn, Roach, Fos-
ter and Mitchell. John j. McGraw has
whole flock of outposts looking up
aspirants for jobs. Among the lot
are Dan Brouthers, Wilbert Robinson
and Joe Gardner, although Dick Kin
sell, president of the Springfield, ILL.,,
club, now and then sends in a few
tips.
Charlie Barrett and Harry Howell,
together with five men of mystery, do
the bush league invasions for Presi-
dent Hedges of the st. Louis Browns.
John j. McCloskey and Billy Murray
have pushed several present stars in
to their positions. Billy Gilbert team
ed it with Roger Bresnahan in the
scouting duties for the st. Louis Car
dinals and whipped a lot of likely
men into line for the championship
race.
! President Comiskey of the White
, Sox carries an expensive corps OF
scouts and last season it was report
ed that he spent more than 100000
for new talent, Ted Sullivan, the late
Tom LOTUS, Mike Cantillion of Min
neapolis, Danny Long of San Fran
cisco, and other warm admirers oil

ing hand of him. The veteran per-
spect, and it is his boast that he new
er paid more than $1,000 for a young
ball player. Bear in mind this state
ment and pause to consider some of
the stars who owe their present rat
ing to the activity OF Huff Reulbach,
Lundgren, Speaker, Pleffer Fall1en-
bburgh, Norman, Stahl, Beebe, Lobert,
these are few of the brighter lights
who at one time or another attracted
the attention of the Cubs pilgrim.
Chief among the short fielders dis
covered by Huff is Charley Wagner
of John |. Taylor's Boston Red Sox.
The pride of New Rochelle has long
maintained the reputation given him
when Fluff rendered his report, and
just now is putting in some sturdy
whacks towards keeping his team up
in the American League scramble. But
the Thinkers, Wagners, Bushs and Me
Brides are growing to be conspicuous
by their absence at this stage of the
game, according to Charlie Murphy's
adviser.
Huff has his own method Of watch
ing a youngster in action on one of
the lesser circuits. In a way he is
the man of mystery descending, minus
the blare of trombones, upon some
sequestered hamlet or minor league
community, always after hearing
glowing reports of the prowess of the
towns diamond idol. On the first
day Huff, sitting in an obscure sec
ton of the stand or bleachers, makes
mental notes of the "phenom's" bat
ting. The next day especial atten-
ton is paid to the fielding endeavors
of the athlete in question.
If the youngster scores a hit the
chances are Huff will hustle off a
message to headquarters notifying
Murphy of his discovery, Otherwise
the hopeful, unaware that he has
been under the keen scrutiny of q
past master, will continue q terror
to the trolley or minor league slab
artists, perhaps till some later date
when fresh reports send Huff scurry-
ing back to that town on another tour
of inspection.
Baseball scouting is not the only vo-
cation of the genial Huff. Every fall
winter and spring finds him very
much in evidence at Urbana, Ill.
where he holds forth as physical di-
rector of the University of Illinois. In
the summer he turns his energies to
the professional end of the game
Among baseball men Huff is known
as the dean of scouts. His closest ri
val for this honor, perhaps, is Tom
my Mccarthy, who formerly looked
about for Connie Mack.
To Mccarthy goes the credit of hav-
ing unearthed such artists as Franli

DIDN'T I,rORCE RULES.
Many Ring Experts Believe Tex Rick.
ard Was Very Lax in His Work at

ard Was Very Lax in His Work at
Reno.
Reviewing the Jeffries-Johnson fight
in their calm moments many ring ex-
perts have reached the conclusion
that Tex Richard as referee signally
failed to enforce the Queensberry
rules, which governed the battle.
Those who saw the big fellows meet
at Reno or have since viewed the
moving pictures are inclined to find
much fault with Richards conduct III
the ring. In the first place it is point
ed out that Richard permitted Jeffries
and Johnson to hold in the clinches
in a way that was surprising. While
the articles of agreement stipulated
that the referee could not step be-
tween the principals when clinched
they authorized him to order the men
to break away at the word of COM
mand From all accounts Richard
allowed the pugilists to hug and
clinch to their hearts content without
once cautioning them or ordering
them to separate
If the fight had been held in the Ma
tional Sporting Club of London, where
the Queensberry code is always en-
forced to the letter, it is pointed out
that the referee would have warned
the men once to break out OF clinches
and upon a second offence he would
have disqualified whichever man was
at fault. There are referees of recog-
nized ability in this country, who
would have interfered with the hold
ing tactics which prevailed in almost
every round, in which event much
cleaner and more interesting fight
would have been the result.
Richard also permitted Jim Corbett
to break the rules by walking to
neutral corner between rounds for the
purpose of annoying Johnson with
personal remarks. If Richard had
been familiar with the rules of the
ring and had been willing to enforce
them, it is argued that he would have
ordered Corbett outside of the ropes,
and upon the latter's refusal to leave
he would have disqualified Jeffries.
Richards liberation of Corbett's I'M
heard of methods therefore has been
used as proof that the referee did not
know his business and plainly showed
it.
After the first knockdown sustained
by Jeffries the latters seconds viola
ter the rules by jumping into the ring
and assisting the white man to his
feet. That was where Richard had an
excellent chance to display his knowl-
edge of the Queensberry code by dis
qualifying Jeffries on a foul. He adj
mits frankly that foul was COM
mitted, but cannot explain why he
failed to take immediate action Rick
ard saw the seconds in the ring and
also knew that Jeffries had been as
sisted to his feet, contrary to rules
and in the code, yet he permitted
the fight to go on in defiance of all
precedent. Furthermore, Richard
failed to count at any time when JEFF

CITY TREASURER AND
COUNCIL DISAGREE
Mrs. Thompson Refuses to Collect
Electric Light Fees Without
Extra Compensation.

Especial 10 The Herald Republican,
Ephraim, Aug. 5.-At the meeting Of
the city council it became evident
that the relations between City Treas
urer Thompson and the council are
rather strained. The bone of conten-
ton is the matter OF collecting the
electric light fees. Some time ago the
council passed an ordinance which
makes II the duty of the treasurer TO
collect these fees. but no extra COM
pensation was provided. The treas
urer collected the fees for one month
and submitted a bill for the work. The
mayor stated that airs. Thompson, the
treasurer, refused IL make the cOlIec-
ton on the grounds thai this was nor
ne of the duties of her Once at the
time of her election, ana that she
would not do the work without extra
compensation. The mayor staLeu that
the treasurer could do her duty or
resign.
Complaint was made that Chris
Sundrup is maintaining a slaughter
house in the rear of his residence on
Main street. and the city officers We're
petitiOned 10 have the nuisance re-
moved. The petitioners were George
Quinn, Lewis Anderson, John Dyring
and Lewis Olsen DOrius. Mr.. Quinn,
who acted as spokesman for the COM
mittee, asserted that Sundrup slaugh-
tiers cattle of all kinds for his butcher
shop on his lot on Main street Al
though the ordinance provides that
parties desiring to locate slaughter
houses within the city must first make
application 10 the council, no applica-
ton has been made in this instance.
The judiciary committee, to whom
had been referred the petition of citi-
zens requesting the closing of the con-
dictionary stores on Sunday, reported
that the cOnfectioners had agreed to
close until p. m. on Sundays, and
be taken.
