A year later, Karrick, looking like a

will never be able to play baseball
again. McGraw received this sorrowful
intelligence yesterday. and he will stop
by Torrey's home on his way West and
see II anything can be done to cheer up
this young twirler who has had such
hard luck. II 1t Is found that Torrey
will not be able to play ball again Me-

and that will give the Giants another
man to carry until the middle of Nay.

Torrey Is the young fellow over whom
New York, Cincinnati and two other
clubs had a dispute and the case was
sent TO the National Commission for
final settlement. The commission
awarded Torrey to the Giants. Nc

Pitcher Torrey Not Likely
To Be Abe to PLay Aqa;n

the amateur and semi-professional clubs
Chicago until several OF the big
league clubs went after him. He Is not
only a good pitcher, but an exception
ally hard hitter. McGraw had figured
on using him in some other position II
necessary so as to a X advantage OF
his batting ability.
II is practically certain that the
Giants will make no trades Of any kind
before the opening of the coming sea-
son. McGraw has had any number Of
offers. but unless they show him some
thing away above the ordinary there
Is r. chance of his making a trade.
He s. perfectly willing to stand pat.
The Giants led all the clubs In hitting
last season. and II would be pretty hard
to ring In n new fellow who could hang
II on n OF the present crew.
The hitting ability of the Giants. ac-
cording to McGraw, Is the only thing
that kept them up In the race to the
finish. The records show that Devlin
was the worst fielder at third OF the
lot. that Doyle was the worst fielding
second baseman, and that Merkle made
more errors at first h a any OF the
other first basemen. n those cir
cumstances II can be seen that the
hitting was necessary to keep the club
In the fight.
McGraw says there will be very few
changes In his lineup next season. but
there are likely to be some important
changes In the batting order. Merkle
will he taken away from the seventh
posltlon on the list and will probably
take the place OF Murray AS fourth
man, or, as he Is known to the players,
clean up man" Notwithstanding : .
fact that Merkle was In a weak position
In the batting order he drove In more
runs than any man on the club and
Meyers was next to HIM.. Meyers Will
also be moved up in the lis, next soa-
son. Murray drove In a lot OF base run
ners. but he was In the position to do
Il. The batter In fourth place should
! always lead IN the matter OF driving In
| runs. He has the fast base runners
on ahead OF him n anything like q

SHAKE-UP
Needed In the Present RoS-
ter of SraySon's Col
onels.

Manager Danny Shay and his Kan
sas City warriors will make their
farewell bow for this season in a
double-header tomorrow, the first
game to be called at 2 o'clock. The
games are sure to be closely con-
tested, as the Colonies can always
be depended upon to give two teams
a run for their money-Kansas City
and Indianapolis. AS loyal support
ers of team Louisville fans will
have to be given top notch position
as indicated by the attendance at the
games since the team dropped to
last place, where they finished last
season. Nearly 5000 people at last
Sundays game and 1000 at Tues
days speak volumes for the fans
loyalty, and places Louisville in the
front rank as good baseball town.
As a move to compensate the public
Manager Howard should give the
team a shake-up and put in lineup
that will at least try. The following
would about please; Hughes. catch {;
Grimshaw, first base; Hulswit, sec
ond base; Stansbury, short stop;
Lennox, third base; Hayden, Stanley
and Howard in the field. The pub
lie would appreciate the above and
would be sure Of seeing a nine that
was endeavoring to do something be-
sides drawing their salary.

STATE FAIR HORSE SHOW

Nominations already made In. the
Commissioner of Agriculture saddle
horse stake for the coming Kentucky
State Fair indicate that more inter-
est will be taken in this class than
ever before. The nominations OF
stables indicate that such we'll known
horses as Theodore Roosevelt will
be seen In the ring. The purse OF
$500 hung up by the Commissioner
In this stake is sufficient to attract
the best show horses in this part of
the country. The fact that Secretary
Shy has decided that admission to
the night horse show this year Will
be free TO those on the grounds
means that many thousands will see
this big nightly feature who have
not seen It In the past. The State
Fair will open promptly at IL
o'clock on the morning OF Monday,
September IL. Col. NJ. G. Rankin,
President OF the State Fair Board,
will press the button at that hour
which will start the machinery. The
show will be on In earnest from that
minute. Day and night there will
be entertainment and instruction
during every hour OF Fair week.
