Frank Chance refuses 70 believe that
his team has gone back to such an eN-

will stand no chance to be a contender
in the next pennant race. Chance believes
that the Cubs would have had AN easy
time winning the pennant this year out
for injuries to himself and Evers. and he
may be right In this contention. Take so
brilliant a pair out of any lineup and
II would come pretty near settling Its

who has been a successful manager Tor
the past decade or more, may never play

believes that it will be best for him to
step down and out before conditions arise
which force him into retirement.
But the club with which he has been
identified for years is not sure that II
wants him as q bench manager. and the
chances are that the question will not be
settled until next spring. In the mean
time Dreyfuss is keeping an eye open Tor

haps one Of the wealthiest hall players In

GAME IS FASTER
BY USE Of SPLITTER
Hugh Jennings Says Moistened
Delivery Has Helped
Base Ball.

when the question is asked, as it is
frequently" says Hughey Jennings,
what has made the game faster and
more scientific than it was ten, fifteen
or twenty years ago, my answer Is the
development of the spit ball has I'M
proved present-day base ball more than
any other thing.
MANY players who were classed as
stars in the olden days would be con-
sidered of but ordinary ability now. OF
course. there were players In the old Ma
tional League who were remarkable and
who would be considered as such just
now There were several who. 1 think,
could have easily held their own against
the pitchers of ability of the present-day
twirlers, but l don't think they would
have batted as heavily.
I'm their day each club had one and.
at the most, two good pitchers. Now
the major league clubs have three and
four star pitchers each, and there is
continuance of lean days for the sluggers.
Zone instance of heavy smuggling that
would hardly be repeated in the major
leagues now was that Of big Dan Brouth-
ers, who i'm Detroit-Chicago game
twenty-five years ago made three nome
runs off Mccormick. Brouthers was a
slow man on the bases. and the -hlcago
fielders at that time We're not marvels IN
speed In the game now speed is essen
tial for an outfielder.

and Johnson is forced to fight to keep
the wolf from the door the New York
promoters may decide to put Flynn and
Johnson in the ring. l mean. of course. If
Johnson insists on meeting white man
1t may be to smile at the idea of
Johnson-F1ynn match, but where Is there
another in the Caucasian race better en-
titled to oppose the champion? Flynn has
Morris. and it does not look as though
there is any one else OF Flynn's complex
ion to lick.
Before Cutler came back with his dis
turbing reports of JohnSon's condition 1t
might have sounded ridiculous to talk of
pitting Flynn against Johnson. especially
after what happened once upon a time
In the Mission street arena. But Flynn
slowing UP. and this seems justification
for the clash when there is no other white
hope
OF course. slowing-up rumors have lit
tie foundation in fact. Johnson, with a
short course Of preparation, may become
the Johnson of Reno: in such case the
Fates preserve Mr. Flynn. But IL II is
as Cutler tells and Flynn can duplicate
some Of the smashes he inflicted upon
poor Carl Morris there may be a differ
ent story to tell. for Flynn on that rainy
September eve in Madison Square was a
veritable hornet.
1t is said Bombardier Wells is coming
to this country looking for work. Well,
that suggests a better program st H. Send

BASE BALL BRIEFS.

Joe Kelley, once the manager of the
Reds. has dressed himself In a pair of
spectacles. This means that Kelley is at
last out Of the game for good or better.
Kelley is one of the landmarks of the
game. Twenty-Five years of steady serv-
Ice are his.
Lord of the Athletics Is one of the few
lead-off men who are right-handed bat
tiers. Most clubs prefer fast left-handed
batsmen to get the jump from the start
on the near side OF the plate. For in
stance. Evers. Bescher. Devore, Titus and
a half q dozen others.
Miller Higgins Is looking for his re-
lease from the Cardinals. Bresnahan has
given the second baseman permission to
dig up somebody In the league who may
take his place. Higgins wants to be
manager. and he wants to manage the
Cincinnati club.

BY w. w. NAUGHTON.

SAN FRANCISCO, November S.-If Kid
Cutler. late Of Jack Johnsons staff. is
to be believed, the champion has gone to
pieces.
II the news is true it means. suppose,
that the gay life Of London has done for
another great negro heavyweight.
Peter Jackson was the first that the
primrose path Of the big city across the
water robbed of his fighting strength and
cunning. When Peter first set foot In the
tight little isle he was feted as though
he were foreign prince. One British
nobleman offered Peter his country place
some said it was his castle-in which to
train.
Peters popularity lasted quite a while.
II began to wane soon after his fight
with Frank Slavin, which. according to
tie of Peters career.
1t was such a grueling affair that it
made physical wrecks Of both men. At
lized. and, as neither accomplished any
thing in the prize ring subsequent IL
looked as though there was something to
base the argument on.
In Jackson's case 1t might be said that
safety in the matter Of ring conquests
contributed to his decline. It was the
ambition of his life to defeat Slavin. They
Rad been rivals in Australia since they
began boxing.
When Jackson accomplished his pur-
pose he gave himself up to the pleasures
Of life and got caught in the swirl of
he pace that kills. When his funds grew
low he came back to San Francisco. He
maintained that a good spell of training
would render him as fit for the ring as
ever. He clamored for a match with JEFF
fries. then largely a novice, and when
he contest took place the once famous
colored fighter wilted in a few rounds.
year or so later he was laid in his
grave in Australia
Johnson never was and never will be
as popular as Jackson. but the same
ABILITIES for getting into the London night
ife are open to him. And. IL Cutler
speaks the truth. Jack has availed him.
self OF the privilege and Is beginning to
reap the whirlwind According to Cutler.
Johnson, like Jackson, will have to box
soon TO replenish his treasury. There is
every reason for believing that contest
between Johnson and Sam LangfOrd is In
prospect in New York but before the day
comes Johnson. as Cutler tells ii, would
like to sharpen up his fighting qualities
on a couple of white hopes.
The trouble is We are just out or them
and not likely to stock up again, as there
no demand for that kind OF merchan-
disc. II was the craze for while, like
hobble skirts. but now white hopes are
asst years birds. Jim Flynn had the last
and now occupies the position Of the cat
hat ate the canary. If the Johnson
iangford outlook should grow dim again

Always Decides What to Do
Before Pitcher
Delivers.

At any time Danny Murphy. the
right fielder Of the world champion
Athletics. fails to call the turn. the
pitcher makes him look bad And any
time that Murphy calls it the oppos-
ing outf1elders have an opportunity
OF displaying their ability as sprint
ers.
For this Danny Murphy is one Of
the most remarkable men that ever
swung war club.
Murphy doesn't decide whether to
swing at a ball or let it 60 by as it
nears him. He knows when the pitch
er winds up whether he will swing or
allow 1t to go for ball.
When he guesses right, it's a fierce
wallop. And when he guesses wrong
he is made to look bad. for Dan
swipes whether the ball Is wide or
not.
Billy Evans Says So.
Some Of the umpires Of the Ameri-
can League were discussing this habit
OF Murphy's, and among them was
Billy Evans. who is considered one
OF the smartest Of the bunch.
"You know. this Murphy is a won
der" said Evans.
He is" agreed Robert McRoy. tie
secretary OF the league. who was
among those discussing the right
fielder.
Don't make any difference who is
on the slab, Murphy picks the ball he
