WILL OPPOSE GIANTS If THE
GIANTS SEND in CLOWNISH FAUST
Manager Chance Shows Sense
of Humor in Reply to
McGraw's Threat.

There is a very good baseball story
emanating from Chicago which has
local interest and shows that Manager
Frank Chance, of the Cubs, is just as
much alive to q situation as John Nc
Graw, of the Giants; also hat the
Peerless Leader has his sense OF
humor.
Manager McGraw is said to have
boosted that he would humble the Cubs
by sending Charley Faust, his mascot
marvel, to the mound in one of the
games against the Cubs just to humble
the nance men for past defeats.
Chance heard of it and replied that if
McGraw tried any such burlesque
stunts he would pitch his bat boy. AS
it happens his bat boy" is none other
than Anthony Carlo, the youngster
who made such a favorable debut for
the Tigers. McGraw very likely, after
the loss of the first game, decided not
to carry out his plan, but IL he does
Chance will fight him with his own
weapons. Carlo could certainly out
pitch Faust, and ii would be the Giants
who are humbled.
To pitch Carlo Chance would have to
obtain permission from Joe McGinnity,
as the young southpaw is on the re-
serve list of the Newark club. Carlo
is popular with the Cub players and
pitches to them daily in practise. after
he has finished his studies at De la
Salle High School, in Chicago.

BATTLING CUBS
and BATTERED
GIANTS RESTING
Matty Once More Fails Against
the Famous Joe
Tinker.

CHICAGO. Sept. 2S,-Following two
successive victories of the Chicago
baseball team, of the National League,
the only possible contenders for the
championship over New York, which is
still five and one-half games in the
lead for the %pennant. the remaining
W games of the series waited today
on the schedule.
Smarting under the halt put to their
attempt to wrest the league title from
Chicago. the New York players rested
today with the avowed intention of de-
ieating the foe tomorrow and Sunday.
Players of both teams appreciated the
rest, howeN er, as all We're somewhat
stiff because of the wetting they SUI
1ered in yesterdays game, which ended
an a heavy rain. 1t drizzled most of
the nine innings.
1t is now planned to use Mathewson
in the New York box again before the
end of the series, as his help will be
needed. it is said, following his defeat
yesterday by Cole.
New York can still lose seven of its
fourteen remaining games and win the
pennant, eve IL Chicago wins all its
nine games. Seven of New York's re-
naming games will be with Brooklyn,
and Manager McGraw today said he
expected to win at least i've of those
contests.

field squad. Snodgrass and Murray are
only a shade behind the Giant grey
hound in speed. McGraw's trio un-
doubtedly has the call in speed, as all
three are like white streaks upon the
bases and eoYer a world of ground.
In the line of outheld play there is
little choice. One set covers about as
much ground as the other and throws
about as Well. Oldring and S~nodgrass
both rank we'll in centre. Both are
fast, both can hit and throw. Oldring
has the edge in eNperience-especially
worlds series eXperience-and on this
account may be given the shade.
Maek's outlying picket squad prob
ably has the call in batting, but this
edge should be offset by Giant speed,
where MeGraw's clan has something
to give away.
Murphy. OF the Athletics, and Muir
ray, of the Giants, are of widely diff
ferent types. Murphy Is the more
deadly at tho bat, but Murray has the
speed and the better arm.
With all points considered, these two
rival outfields are too close together
to have the verdict &c A1ther way.
But while both outfield talent and in
field strength are more or less vital
factors. neither department, in my
opinion. will be the central point nor
the important section around which
victory or defeat may curl. Speed
and pitching will tell eighty per cent.
Of the story, as the neX roundup of
the classic dope will show.

BIG CHANGE
In BICYCLE
RACE RULES
RIDER Favor Return to
Did Title Contest Pan.

The proposition of running the Ameri-
can cycle championship in the manner
in vogue in the days of Eddie Bald
and Tom Cooper has met with the APP
prevail of all the riders, and tho
chances are the National Cycling Assoc
citation will, at their annual meeting,
make this change.
In the old days the rider who won
the greatest number of races, open
and handicaps, was declared the cham
pion. This gives better racing and the
promoters should be as strong for the
proposition as the riders. The stars
would then battle in every race and not
be so inclineu to take il easy in the
handicaps in order 10 save themselves
for the championships. Champion
Kramer's ride in the three-mile handi-
cap at the Neloevfme Sunday shows
what he can do in a handicap race
when he really tries.
1t was a hard race and had there
been any more championship races
scheduled for this season, he, probably.
In view of past performances. would
have quit when the going became hard.
With tina championship secured.
Kramer VIII try to win every event.
including handicaps, run at the Nelo-
drome until the racing season comes to
an end He will start from scratch
with Jackie Clarke and Alfred Goullet
Sunday in the two-mile handicap, and
he will try to win the event. He Will
also try to win the one-mile pen and
the team match race, and in his pres
ent condition il would not be surpris-
ing to see him win all three races in
which he starts. Alfred Goullet is the
biggest winner of the season. and the
American champion is anxious to over
come the Australians lead and finish
the season on top.
Kramer's partner in the team match
race has not been selected yet. Who 1T
shall be will be announced tomorrow.
The other -four teams in the big
match were out training yesterday. and
the race gives promise of being a very
interesting contest, and is certain to go
over three heats before reaching a con
clusion.

ROCHESTER,, n. y, Sept. %
Chaplin Park, the scene of the first two
Observation-Disclosures post season games
is today deserted and the teams are
en- route to Baltimore, where they vail
play the third game tomorrow. The
All-Stars, under Manager Dunn's wing,

Guiding travelling n hotel bills for the
two teams to Baltimore and Newark,

cities of the circuit, Baltimore and
Newark, where the clubs play Sunday.
The expenses to Toronto or Buffalo
would have been much less from here.
This caused all OF the arguments at the
league meeting.
The All-Stars got back on even foot

which allowed the Piedmont lad to
tally.
Mike Corcoran vas again a star with

the tie in the seventh round. Wilhelm
started for Rochester, but blew up In
the seventh. Manser went in and
Jakey Atz hunted one so hard that 1t
tore off Chubby's finger nail. Holmes
her finished the game.
The Hustlers grabbed a couple of
runs in the first round before Dubuc
warmed up. Moran walked, Moeller
doubled and Foster singled. The Hus-
tiers had men on frequently thereafter
and had fourteen men stranded. Once
a swift double play by Dubuc, Cady and
Gandil cut off some runs.
"Roxey" Roach, the Skeeter infielder,
was dropped out of the lineup yester-
day. Parent played shortstop and Jake
Atz covered second.
The All-Stars gathered in one run In
the second, when Murray singled. Can
dill forced him and stole second. Par
ent singled, scoring Gandil.
The score stood 2-1. in Rochester's
favor, until the seventh. Then Parent
singled and took third on C~dy's clout.
The squeeze play was worked, Dubuc
bunting perfectly. Simmons fooled
Louden's grounder, filling the bases.
Coreoran broke the tie with a hit to
centre, which scored Cady and Dubuc.
Louden stode third and scored on
Mitchell's bad throw. Tn the hinth
Manser started and Atz was safe when
his bunt injured Manser. Holmes re-

BOXING IN
NEW YORK
UNSETTLED
Dix for fraw.ey Law Re-
peaI--Cubs Against It.

From Albany comes the information
that Governor Dix has prepared a
special message to the Legislature urg-
ing thai the Frawley boxing law, to
which he gave his approval a short
time ago, be repealed,
The governor gives as his reason for
his change of policy in the matter that
the law, instead of tending to advance
boxing, has been the cause of scan
dals.
The Madison Square A. c. has had
its license revoked, as a result of the
governors attitude. The Empire Attn
letic Club, of Queens, and the National
Sporting Club, on second application,
have proved that they conformed
strictly to the law and their licenses
have been renewed.
ErawIey Against Repeal.
Meanwhile Senator Frawley is as
much as ever a champion Of his bill,
and was c%anvassing today and last
night for votes to defeat the repeal
movement if the bill came up for dis
cusslon today.
1t is said that every effort will be
made to keep the bill bottled up until
1t will be too late to decide on the
matter, as the Legislature will adjourn
tomorrow. This will give the Madison
Square promoters an opportunity to
take their end OF it into court. At
torney A. J. Levy, who is chairman
of the Assembly judiciary committee,
acting for the Powers-Pollock people.
will apply for a writ of certarori. II
this writ does not act as a stay, he
will apply for an injunction to enable
the club to do business until the sit
uation is cleared.
