P|TTSBURC'S CHANCES
DEPEND ON PITCHERS
With Good Twirling Support Pirates
Have Opportunity to Repeat
1909 Triumph.
CLARKE HAS MADE
BUT ONE CHANGE
0ld-Timers Showing Up Well and
May Succeed in Putting Team
at Top Of Heap.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PITrSBURG. April 27-Iike so many
teams In the big league races. the sue
cess Of the Pirates this season depends
largely on what the pitchers do. With
the proper support from the slabmen the
Pirates stand a good chance of repeating
their 1909 triumph in the National
League.
To date Manager Fred Clarke has been
depending largely on Babe Adams, the
hero of the 1909 worlds championship
series with the Tigers; Howard Camnitz
and Lefty" Leifeld. He has chosen to
let these men do most Of the hurting in
the majority of the game, played thus
far
They constitute formidable trio of
fingers. but they cannot shoulder the
entire pitching burden. Manager Clarke
has other twirlers in camp and some
good-looking ones, too, but as yet they
nave shown little if anything. Kirby
White, the red-headed Highlander. is
expected to lend valuable assistance as
soon as he rounds to form.
Lever Has Not Signed Up.
Sam Lever. the veteran finger, has
not signed a contract as yet He was
carried last season. although he COM
peted in but four full contests. He would
again be pensioned this season but for
the fact that he expressed a desire to be
traded to some club where he could be
worked Oftener. He will likely swing in
line later.

Wolgast Wakes Up.

Reused to fury by the punches he had
received, Wolgast came out of his cor
ner in the second round like wildcat.
He sprang at Hogan and shot over a
stiff left to the jaw. That punch struck
the mark and sent Hogan Keeling to the
ropes. 1t was the beginning Of his mis-
cry. Wolgast. quick to see his advan-
tage, followed 1t up like a flash and sent
over a brace Of left and right swings to
the jaw that robbed Hogan OF all his
fighting power. He tried to cover up. but
failed. He was in da1e, and stood help
less while the blows fell on his face and
jaw in rapid succession.
Like triphammer. steadily and per-
sistently and with terrific force. the rain
Of blows continued to fall upon the Cali
fornia boys face. He was utterly help
less and staggered around the ring. He
was unable to protect himself. Keeling
and swaying, first to one side and then
another, he tried to escape from the
punches. But Wolgast stood over him
and kept him in corner. hammerfng
away with left and right to the face.
Eventually Hogan pitched forward and
escaped from the zone Of danger. But
he was all in, a victim to the punches,
and Charlie White, seeing him but a
physical wreck of a boxer, mercifully
stopped the bout and pushed Hogan to
his corner.

HOGAN'S WATERLOO
Ad WoIgast Shows No Mercy.
SO Referee Goes to Rescue.
BOUT WAS A SHORT
AND FURIOUS ONE
End Comes in. the Second
Round, When White Stops
the Unequal Battle.

NEW YORK, April 27.-With a torrent
OF crushing blows, administered so fast
that no count Of them could be kept, Ad
Wolgast. the lightweight champion boxer
OF the world. checked the aspirations of
One-Round Hogan Of California to win
the title by technically knocking out the
latter in the second round Of what was
scheduled to be a ten-round bout at the
Madison Athletic Club last night. Hogan
was so helpless that Referee White in
all humanity. stopped the milling and
pushed Hogan to place of safety-his
corner
1t was only a two-round battle. but
inside OF the five minutes of actual work
there was enough fighting to fill a
volume.
1t was fierce fght-no other word ex-
presses it. Showers Of swinging punches,
first to the head and then to the body,
but always driven with great force VOL
CAST was the early recipient Of the
swings, hooks and jolts to the jaw. He
was dazed and stunned by Hogan's
powerful and overwhelming punches
They were so unexpected that the cham
pion was unable to fathom whence they
came. He knew not where to jump for
safety. In his dilemma he did the next
best thfng-he covered up his face with
his left hand and dropped his right glove
to his body.
Both Under Weight.
Wolgast and Hogan stepped onto the
scales at o'clock. Each lad weighed
131 pounds. Both looked in perfect physi-
cal condition. Each said he would have
no excuse to offer If he was beaten.

About $50 pm. James j. Jeffries. former
champion heavyweight pugilist of the
world, entered the clubhouse. He was
accompanied by several personal friends
Only a few of the members recognized
Jeffries and his presence failed to cal
forth a cheer.
''One-Round' Hogan was the first tc
enter the ring. He was quickly followed
by Wolgast. Hogan's loins were draped
with knee-length silken boxing pants
Wolgast was incased in short worste(
trunks. Charley White acted as the ref
cree. Both men We're instructed by
White and agreed to box straight rules
and to protect themselves at all times
the breakaways included.
The first round was of a hurricane
order. Hogan slammed a left and a
right to Wolgast's face. forcing him to
the ropes and making Wolgast rock on
his heels. The champion was forced to
cover up to protect himself from the
rain of blows that were showered on
him. Previous to this rain of blows VOL
CAST had cut open Hogan's lips with a
fierce left punch to the jaw.

or not Davis was in the city during
the past few weeks, inquiry being
prosecuted at places where Davis
made his headquarters when he was

that the Davis story was a myth.

Davis was not here this week.

From Bemidji statement was made

from Alfred Mueller. who claimed to
have seen Davis. and is the story OF
the affair as e from the point OF
view Of the officials engaged in the
prosecution Of the arson cases:
Il was in East Grand Forks last
Saturday and at the time l saw and
positively identified Mike Davis. His
other friends would hardly know
him, but to me there was no question
as to his identity. l came to Bemidji
and informed the officers. Mr.. Field.

with Chief Sullivan there and he and
his assistant lent every possible aid.

known as Little Harry's Place
Our squad was to consist of ten men.
We had planned first on making the
attack about 3 p. m. Thursday. This
decision was revised and we decided
to put it of until about day light
yesterday morning. In the meantime
the bartender. who had no idea as to
who l was, told me that l had better
beat 1t; that the place was to be raid
ed. Who ever told the bartender told
the news to Davis and his pals, for
they suddenly disappeared.
The information was that these
men had gathered in a room on the
second floor Of the saloon. At one
time there were not less than twenty
