No Two Witnesses Tell Same Story
Complainant Was Putting on
Vaudeville Turn.

Further testimony in the Clarence
Mart case in the police court this
morning, in which the defendant is
charged with assault with a deadly

street and Fourth avenue late Tues
day night AS the result Of the con-
flict in testimony Clarence Mart was
dismissed by Magistrate c. J. Smith
this morning. He was represented by
J. K Scott.
1t developed that most of the occu-
pants OF the saloon were drunk during
the mixnp and therefore the testimony
was garbled and of little value. Ed
Wright claimed that while he was
standing near Campbell, the latter at
tempted to strike him, but missed, and
the blow fell on Clarence Mart, knock
ing his beer glass from his hand and
splitting the beer over Mart's clothes.
After that he knew no more until he
saw Campbell sitting IN q chair and
others were wiping the blood from his
head
VAUDEVILLE WAS ON.
When Mart took the stand in his
own defense, he stated that he enter
ed the saloon about 10 o'clock when
he heard singing in there He found
vaudeville show in progress with
Campbell as the one big feature act.
Oakley. Campbell's companion and
champion, was master of ceremonies.
Mart informed Campbell that he liked
his singing. Campbell replied that
while he was singing there must be
absolute silence. Mart declared that
Campbell was intoxicated. He claim
ed that after Campbell struck at him.
Campbell reeled back against a table

st. Louis at Boston.

Boston. Mass, June 6.-Chicagos
White Sox handed the pesky Speed
Boys of Boston the final game of the
series yesterday. Miserable defensive
playing IN the first three innings while
Iron Man LANCE was pitching gave
Boston lead of four runs. and, al
though the Sox made a most gallant
uphill fight from then on, they were
beaten by a score of 5 to 4.
LANCE got into trouble as soon as he
went to the slab. Luck doesn't seem to
favor him in any way, and 1t throws
the other players off their stride. Two
mistakes on his part gave Boston the
first two runs, while a base on balls
helped 1t to another. After three slop-
by innings he was solved and sent back
to the hotel, so his presence wouldn't
even interfere with the game. Fred
Olmstead took his job and the Sox
started climbing. Just when they were
about TO tie the score or win the game.
Eddie Karger was removed from the
game as pitcher for Boston and young
Joe Wood came in and stopped all pro-
ceedings.

GOODMAN BATTLE

Memphis, Tenn, June 6.-After DAN

police jumped into the ring and stop
ped the farce. The fans Kissed and
yelled at the pair, and when Referee
Hack called 1t mo contest they tum-
bled over chairs and caused a small
riot until the police forced their way
through the ropes. 1t was more OF a
love feast than a boxing bout. Good
man and Gary did nothing but clinch.
and never landed a blow that would
stir the wind during the seven rounds
The club refused to pay the boxers.

Just as Harry McIntire and the
Cubs seemed to have a brilliantly earn
ed victory over Christy Matthewson
and the Giants within their grasp yes
terday the Cub pitcher blew out CYL
inder head and the force of the explo-
sion was so terrific that it hurled seven
runs across the plate and Chicago back
into third place. Score, Z to 1.
Never was a game torn more ruth
lessly out of the grasp of hard working
athletes; never were spirits of proud
citizens more heartlessly tortured;
never was long deferred hope more
completely b1ighted right on the point
of realization; never was cradle robbed
of baby's milk bottle by a more hard
ened crew than those New York Giants.
For six innings the battle ran along
on an even keel almost without sign of
break. Mathewson and McIntire were
pitching as nearly alright baseball as
one cares to see Big Six was practi-
cally faultless and was receiving mag
nificent support. but McIntire was hold
ing him even despite occasional
pass or hit The Cubs behind him were
out to the limit to win the victory
which meant undisputed ownership of
the sky parlor overnight at least. In
six innings only two hits were made off
Mathewson and only five scattered
swats off McIntire. who seemed to be
getting better and stronger as the
game progressed.

Tulsa Okla. June 6.-An announce
ment of District Judge l. NJ. Poe, in a
lecture to the grand jury today, that if

there was any agitation against the
bout being pulled off here, no matter
from what source, he would lose no
time in transferring the bout to Sapul-
pa Many Sapulpans were in town to-
day, and 1t is understood they have
conferred with Ufer and offered a sub

to that place.
