Manager Jones Promises Nor
gan Match Between McFar-
land and Welsh Bouts.

hsht my hoy, which I don't think he'll!
do said Jones. II am only too willing
to let Brown take his place.
Anyhow continued Jones. II will
let Brown meet Wolgast between the
Mcfarland and Welsh matches-the lat
ter battle being scheduled to AXE placc
in san Francisco on THANKSGIVING Day.
] don't care whether the contest IL for
ten or twenty rounds or whore Il takes
place, as long as We are guaranteed the
sum OF money We want. think that
IL we should arrang the match for this
city that we are entitled to at least
Sl5,00o for our end"
when Jones announced the demand
stated above. Danny Morgan, who was
just rulping down some carbonatel
water, almost choked himself laughing.
You amuse me-" said Morgan as he
shifted one leg over the other. Your
boy has been badly beaten by Brown
twice, and yet YOU have the nerve 10
want that big sum for your end, II YOU
get $1,000 a round for a ten-round bout
YOU viii he getting a big bunch y,
money and more than Ad ever got for
a go of such lensth In his life"
As tho meeting broke up early this
morning it had been practically agree |
that Wolgast n Brown would battle
in the Madison Square Garden of this
city some time In October, and It Is
thought that this engagement will draw
the biggest box office receipts In the
history OF ring affairs In this city.

Series at Polo Grounds
on Friday.

Is likely to send King Cole to the front
for the Cubs. II these Two young pitch
ers are In their best form the battle will
be one long to be remembered. for both
the youngsters have made ~envlous
records in some of their games this
summer.
The Giants close their western tour
with to-day's game and will leave at
once for home where they are to face
the Phillies on Friday in the first OF a
four game session. The slump that the
Quakers are undergoing at the present
time Is likely to put them out OF the
running for the rest OF the season.
The Giants are planning on a big
brace when they get home. Manager
McGraws has an elaborate programme
OF batting practices mapped out for the
men to follow out when they get back
TO the Polo Grounds which II carried
out will round up the base hits In the
future games. The three are to face the
Cardinals right after the Giants leave
and there IL no easy time ahead Of
them even II the Cardinals are not doing
as well as they were a month ago.
Chance has It figured out for the Cubs
to win every day for the remainder a

easier time with the Reds than the
Cubs will a with the Cardinals.

GIANTS IN LAST WESTERN GAME:
MARQUARD LIKELY TO FACE CUBS

McGraw and his men are only three
games behind the leaders. but II Is the
iarthest they have been from the top
!or several weeks. The race IL narrow
ing down to a battle between the Cubs
and the Pirates. with the Pirates cling
ing to the heels of the local men with
a grim determination to GUST them from
first place IL such a thing Is possible.
The Cubs have k a new interest
IN the battle since the coming OF the
Giants and are playing the game as
they We're before they encountered the
slump last week that nearly cost them
their proud position. McGraw has been
unable 20 get his men going anything
like his last years team or Ike the
team that fought It ont with the Pirates
to the bitter end in 1909.
For some reason or other the New
Workers are not hitting N ball to-
gether, and that Is a great drawback to
run making. In the present series with
the Cubs the Gothamites have been hit
ting often enough to win the games,
but they do not have the power to con-
centrate their hitting while the Cubs
have. The pitching of the local twirl-
ers has not been any better than that
OF the visitors, but the attack u the To-
cal batters has been much better.
The terrific pace OF the Pirates has
scared the Cubs Into a real fighting
form. II Fred Clarke's men get ahead
and keep going at their present swift
pace there Is no chance to overtake
them. Chance has instilled that thought
into his men that they will have 70
win every day In order to keep out OF
the way OF the Pirates.
The final game OF the series IL to take
place between the Eastern and Western
leaders this afternoon. II Is a SAFE
guess that John McGraw will send RUDE
