Because of the decision, L. 81. Casteel
fled a protest Immediately. 1t was III
the seventh inning of the game and
Harry Kelly was at bat. He hit q long,
foul fly out to Long in right field. Long
touched 1t with his fingers; it bounded
to the fence and on the return, he
nailed it. Everybody on the grounds,
except Cusack saw the play and all
were more than surprised when he
called Kelly out. Asked later in regard
10 the play, he said, Il thought he was
out" Apparently, when it requires too
much thought on these questionable
decisions, Rock Island is still the butt
of the orders from men higher Up than
the umpire, for On every close decision
through the season, Rock Island has
been the goat"

Boxing Notes

Milwaukee, Sept. 1.-THE promo
tiers of the Wolgast-McFarland fight
late yesterday held a prolonged con-
ference with the officials relative to
the holding of the light Friday night,
and at its conclusion the statement
was issued by Frank Mulkern, in
charge of the affair, that the fight
would be held. He said he was certain
that the officials would realize before
the time for the battle that the con-
test is to be a boxing match within
the limits of the law, and not a fight,
as prohibited by the statutes. Despite
Mulkern's optimistic statement, Sheriff
Arnold issued an announcement as pos
tive as ever that there would be no
fight, and not blow would be struck.
The moment the fighters start to fight,
he said. he would have enough depu-
ties to stop the combat. There would
be no consent to an arrangement for
the holding of the fight, and the ar
rest of the principals afterward.
Chicago, Sept. 12.-Harry Forbes
has had an offer to box in England.
Matchmakers of the National Sporting
club of London have written the come
back" champion Offering him transport
tation and a purse to meet Digger"
Stanley or Merchant, who are the
representative bantams OF the British
isles. The mill would be at 118
pounds, which is Forbes best weight
And the English prize ring rules, which
call for clean breaks and two-minute
rounds, also would be a help to the
Chicago boy, for he is a finished boxer
and not smuggling fighter. If Forbes
and his manager agree to make the
trip, he will stop in New York and
take on some bantam there, and will
start for England some time in Octo-
Der.
