pennant practically within their grasp.
Their lead was increased to ten and
one-half games. Chances men have
thirty-twO games yet to play. If they
win half OF them, Pfttsburg must take
twenty-six of its remaining twenty
nine games to win the pennant.
The athletics are now leading by
thirteen and one-haIf games in the
American league, with but twenty
seven games to play. New York and
Boston are tied for second place. II the
Athletics win thirteen of their twenty
seven games, New York and Boston
must take tyventy-eight straight to beat
out the Philadelphia team.

AS far the present status of that
much talked of meeting of Packey Nc
Farland and AID Wolgast In Milwaukee
on Sept 80 is concerned, 1t is a case of
the promoters not coming to meet the
managers and the manag gers in conse-
quence hiking after the promoters.

from the promoters all day yesterday
to the effect that Milwaukee was ready
to receive the rival lightweights with
open arms. Tom Jones, the champions
manager, and Johnny Mcfarland. the
challenger's cousin, planned to go to
the Cream City today to force an an
swer from the promoters of the bout
and incidentally to witness the ten
round go between Jack Redmond and
frankie White.
I'VE are ready to post our forfeits
and sign articles" said Jones yester-
day. 1T is now up to the Star Ath-
letic club. the organization that is pro-
noting the match, to show its good
faith. We will demand a definite an
swer from the promoters tomorrow,
and. in the meantime have tele-
graphed New Orleans and San Fran
cisco for bids in order to have a battle

kee club fail to do its share
The promoters offer as an excuse for
their delay inability to secure a hall
large enough to accommodate the fans
who will be. on hand to witness the IT,

and Mcfarland. will go down in ring

New York, Sept e-According to
Charlie White, the veteran New York

Joe Jeanette, who was defeated by
Langford Tuesday night.
Il am not saying that Sam can whip
Johnson" said White but I know that
he can make the champion go some to
