LITTLE WILL SUE
PUG|L|sT JOHNSON
Discharged Manager Has Contract
and Threatens To Go To Law
Against the Big Negro.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.-Sports
are watching with keen interest the
developments that are sure TO follow
Jack Johnson's action I'm discharging
his white manager. George Little. of
Chicago. putting Billy Nolan In charge
Of his Affairs, and calling squad OF
police to hustle Little out OF the train
ing quarters.
After his fight with Tommy Burns
Johnson discharged Sam Fitzpatrick,
the manager who had brought him 10
The top of the fighting profession. Lit
tie got the Negro to sign contract
which he says Will be upheld In court.
MY contract with Johnson was
drawn by one OF the best lawyers In
the country" he said. 1T provides
that shall receive % per cent OF all
his profits and IL is a contract that
the courts will uphold. You can bet
your last cent | will fight this thing
through and IL do not get my cut |
will prevent that July 4th fight"
Johnson has been sore on Little for
some time and has been trying TO hnd
some excuse for getting rid OF him.
Sig. Hart furnished the excuse.
Johnson Is fond OF Hart and has been
taking him on long automobile rides.
Yesterday Johnson sought to place
Hart In charge OF the collection or
tickets from those who wanted TO see
the training. There was a fight be.
tween Hart and Little. In which blows
were struck and a brick thrown. john
son called the police, TO whom Hart
complained that he was afraid of Lit
tie. Johnson grandiloQuently fired"
Little on the spot and had the police
carry him away.
1t Is probable Little will Immediately
institute legal proceedings to test the
strength OF his contract with the
Negro. Some interesting develop
ments are expected. and some mighty
dirty linen may be washed out |. the
AFFAIR gets TO the point where Little
starts to tell all he knows.
Johnson put in hard day yester-
day and showed up in rare form. He
is down to 2l2 pounds and as fast as
lightning. as was shown in his boxing
with Cutler and Cotton.

A couple OF years ago, New YORK
released q big bunch of players to
Boston in exchange for Tenney and
Bridwell Tenney is now about ready
to quit, but Bridwell Is still In his
prime, while the players let out to
Boston are down and cutters.
A year ago the big clubs that won
the big league pennants found it nee
essary to make some trades In order
to strengthen some weak points
Pittsburg traded Barbeau and Storke
for Byrne. The latter was just the
man needed at the third corner, but
st. Louis has nothing to show for the
deal, Storke dying while Barbeau has
been sent TO Kansas City.
Detroit pulled of two transactions

Killifer to Washington for Delehanty
The latter has put up a splendid game
at second ever since and was the
champion batter of the worlds series
Schaefer, however. has failed TO dis

lifer is playing speedy ball just al
present. Then jennings gave Ross
man for Tom Jones. Jones is one u
Detroits mainstays today, while
Rossman is a minor Lacquer.
year ago, Cleveland gave Ryan

there being also a cash consideration.
Young has not been of service this
season. but he outpitched Chech and
Ryan last season, both the younger
men finding their way 10 the A. A.

Baseball history is full of trades i'll
which one club was stung badly and
there are really only a few instances
where both clubs apparently had rea-
son to be satisfied. Rather queer
when IL is known that seldom are
trades made on the spur of the mo-
ment. Sometimes, the interested
managers and magnate will spar for
weeks and months before completing
the details and then one party dis
covers that Ii has been beautifully
gold bricked
The Cubs have always had the bet
ter of their trades. For instance,
Murphy, several years ago, traded
Buttons" Briggs, Jimmy Casey, Jack
Mccarthy and Billy Maloney for JIM
my Sheckard. Sheckard is still with
the Cubs while the other four have
passed out of the big leagues, some OF
them being even out OF the game now.
Chicago also gave Bob Wicker for
Overall. The latter IS one OF the
Cubs mainstays in the box. while
Wicker has been in the minors for
several years.
Another deal that worked to the
advantage of the Cubs was that
whereby Mordecai Brown became a
member OF the Cubs along with Catch
or O'Neil in exchange for Pitcher
Jack Taylor O'Neil and Pitcher
Pfeiffer were soon exchanged for
Catcher Moran. Did Murphy and
Chance get the better of those deals?
Well. very much so. Brown has been
one of the greatest pitchers the game
has known since joining the Cubs,
while Moran has been an able assist
ant to King and Archer. AS for the
others, they are now minor leaguers
or have quit the game. Then the
Chicago men put another over on

HEART
Wffh the
Sporting
Editor.

The admonition OF Connie Mack:
We have watched diligently and find
the Yankees at the top OF the heap.
The Yanks are moving right along.
but so are the Tigers and the pros
poets are better for Detroit right now
than for New York.
You see. the Tiges have had their
slump, while the Yanks have been
floating along on the high wave OF
prosperity and there always comes a
losing streak sooner or later. With
things as they stand now. Detroit
would forge ahead when the Yankees
commenced TO slip. and there Is every
indication that Jennings men will
play better ball during this month
than they did during May. Looks
pretty good, doesn't It?
New York has boosted itself to the
top through good ball playing and ex-
cellent pitching. Ford, a recruit. has
won seven games straight without q
defeat, which is better than ordinary
for a recruit. Ford has plenty of stun
| according to those who have seen him
work. but lot OF other good pitchers
have started even better only to fat
ten out about July 4.
| Detroit stuck to third place even
when In a bad slump. The club has
won eight straight games since re-
turning from the east. one from Chi
cago. four from st. Louis and three
from the Athletics. That's fair start
for the long stay I'm the west.
The cleanup Of the Athletics was
quite surprise. basing advance ideas
on the way the Mackmen had been
going. Detroit was fortunate in get
ting Saturdays contest because the
club did not play good ball. but Sum-
days game was won on its merits.
After the appearance of the Ath.
letics here don't be deceived into
thinking they are done. A different
catcher would have had material
bearing on the results all three days.
No pitcher can work when the re-
ceiver is not going right, neither can
the infield form the proper defense.
A weak catcher allows too much
promiscuous base running and the op-
position collects too literally on its
hits. The Mackmen will get on their
feet shortly and hustle right along as
they did at home.
But, the dope all points to O pros
| porous season for Detroit. barring &C.
cidents. OF course.

CAN COLLEGE SPRINTER GO
100 YARDS Nv LESS THAN los?

Pooch Donovan. trainer of the Har-

statement that there is not an athlete
at Yale, Harvard Princeton, Pennsyl-

these other eastern colleges who can

Donovan Is one OF the few sprinters
who has been officially caught" at

can do the distance I'm less than 10
seconds are few and far between. His
statement about the athletes now en-
rolled In the big eastern colleges was
made prior TO the big intercollegiate
meet at Philadelphia a week ago Sat
urday.
Results will prove what I say TO
be true said Pooch, and. sure enough,
none of the lithe-limbed sprinters,
could do the 100 In less than 10 sec

the victory. True an Amherst college

spring. This will all be changed by
the recent discovery of cattle feeders
in Louisiana, and this grass will be
used as feed for cattle and stock all
over the state, instead of buying cat
tie feed in the West, which has been
the chief source of supply for this
state for many years.
This grass can be cut two or three
times a year. 1t grows rapidly and
if allowed to stand too long becomes
rank and unfit for cattle feed, because
the stem is too large and tough. But
if cut when young and tender, it is
regarded as almost as nutritious as
bermuda and the equal of the ordi
nary meadow grass, which grows
aburdantly in parts of the state, but
which is not utilized as it might he
for feeding cattle.
The farmers can buy their hay at
home, if the owners of marsh land
will take advantage of the opportuni'
ty offered them and cut and bale the
hay. 1t can be sold cheaper than the
foreign hay can be had here, while
the difference in freight will be an
item the farmers will consider.
Marsh grass hay should become a
prosperous industry in Mississippi,
and it's market would in a short time
be limited only by the supply.
This discovery is especially import
ant to Mississippi, since cattle rails.
ing is becoming big industry in this
state, and will be greatly enhanced
by the cattle tick eradication, which
will place the cattle in this state on
an equal footing with those of other
states. The quality of the beef pro-
duced in this state is high, but the
cattle quarantine has operated against
the Mississippi stock raisers, who
have never been able to secure the
top market price for their product,
but will be able to do so by the eradi-
cation of the cattle tick
