WASHINGTON LIKELY
 TO BE STRONG IN 1913

Owing to the success which the Washington club has had this year it is the opinion of many that the team will be d more dangerous factor for the cham pionship of the American League in 1913 than it has been in 1912
 This is the first season in which Heretofore the @ Washing shi e1 tons have aiot travelled along the side streets. peep ing cut now and then to watch the big show.
 Griffith has a team which is compos- ed of some very good material, some average material and no material which is really bad. If he is able two positions between now and the beginning of the next season he may enter the fight in the spring with a formidable aggregation.
 Another fact to be considered in re- gard to the chances of the Washing tons next year is that the team will not start with mild curiosity to its future. The players have found that they can win, and if they get good training season they are likely to step out in front at the drop of the hat and make everybody come to them
 Johnson will probably. be assisted by a better pitching corps than operated With him this year, and that is go- ing to add to the success of the team. If Johnson had running mate who was the same type as himself the Wa shin gtons might have won the fact that they were outplayed in some other departments of the field.
 Their defence would have been so strong that their ability to make two even a better margin than that, would have pushed them out in front.

JEANETTE WINS
 FROM TONY ROSS
REFEREE AWARDS DECISION ON
 FOUL IN SEVENTH ROUND

George Kirlxwood off St. Louis knocked out Frankie FIemmlng, the Canadian bantamweight champion m the first round; Gunboat smith or Pittsburgh Bearcat. in a slashing ten round go, and Joe Jeanette Of Ho- boken won on foul from Tony Rose of Newcastle, Pa, in the seventh round. Those were the results or the star bouts in Madison Square Garden, New York, last night. Ross should have been disqualified iii the sixth round. when facing sure defeat.
 He first sought to lose on a foul. rather than to have the full drone of the doIeful decimal tolled over him. He deliberately struck Jeannette three times in the groin in the sixth round, and it was not until Jeannette was doubled up from Ross second foul punch in the seventh round that Referee sJoh stopped the bout.
 Jeanette scaled 195 pounds, while Ross was announced to weigh POT F pounds The Italian had a liberal layer of spaghetti and chianti flop ping around his m1dSeCtiOn and look ed to be carrying at least fifteen pounds more weight than was an- nounced- Jeanette stalled through three rounds before cutting loose. He began to get to Ross in the fourth, and by the fifth the Italian was ready to lower his flag.
 Jeannette's broadsides had Ross staggering in the sixth, and rather than be knocked out Ross chose to punches in the sixth round, but got away with them. Referee Joh also let another low punch pass with a reprimand in the seventh, and it was not until Ross followed by driving an- other blow to the groin, making Jean referee intervened, waving the men to their corners.

ALARMED BY TALK
 OF INTERVENTION
Mexican Government Sent Fresh Troops to Reinforce FederaIs Where American Interests Are at Stake

Mexico City, Sept. 1o-Presuma bly, alarmed by the talk of American fn- tervention the Mexican government began sending fresh troops, today. to reinforce the federal forces in ncrth- ern Sonora, where aAmerican interests are suffering most Serioukly from the rebellion. Just how many more will be dispatched toward the scene of hos tilities has not yet been made public dero nsS made up his mind that the north must be pacffied matter what becomes of the rest of the coun- try.
 Though the president has denied Ire ceiving any news of the United States chara acterizes amy such rumor as preposterous none doubts that he is fully posted concerning the inter vention news from Beverly, Mass. and the predictionSof an extra session of Congress.
 Today's developments suggest that he will do all in his power to head off any such outcome by the most desperate efforts TO restore order n all localities where American lives or property are endangered
 That there has really been ground for American complaints was tacttiy admitted by tha president in the state that there is absolutely no reason for disqliietude regarding Americans in north Sonora" to the effect that ..thers are already almost enough troops there to protect them and more will be sent"
 More arrests were made. today oL men suspected of complicity in the plot for an uprising in Mexico City, September 15. and further executions are expected.

PRINCETON HAS
 FOOTBALL DRILL
MATERIAL AT FIRST PRACTICE LOOKS PROMISING FOR
 GOOD SEASON.

Princeton, N. J.. Sept. 10-Weather too hot for strenuous work greeted the Tigers yesterday afternoon. when they got out their togs for the first football prac tice of the season on University Field. A squad of twenty-five men tossed the ball around and worked off a few of the Summers bad effects. All of the candidates took a couple of turns around the field before go-, ing to the club house. Four varsity veterans reported to coaches Cunning ham, Duff and Wilson. They were Captain Pendleton, Bluethehthal, cen ter: Dewitt and H. Baker, halves. Baker and Pendleton put in 9 good deal of their time watching some very. ugly punts from the toe of H. H. Gile, one of last years freshmen, who has shown promise in the kicking line
 Several good men from last years scrub and freshman eleyens were on the field. Street, player who will make a strong bid for full, is hardly in condition as yet. Andrews, a vet eran of two years good scrub work is another candidate for full to whom the coaches look for material.

RED S0x LEAD CLUBS
 IN GETTING FREE PASSES

One of the reasons the Boston Red SOx have scored sos many runs this season and are so far out in front in the American league pennant pursuit is that the Stahlwarts outclass their rivals in obtaining free passes f, oIn opposing pitchers. Records compiled to Aug. 31, inclusive, reveal the fact that the pace setters have had 40 bases on balls 1avished on them since the campaign started and that their regulars Iris Speaker, Duffy Lewis, Larry Gardner and the others, ne ve worked twirIers for free transLorta- rion oftene than all the members of certain second division teams -CIeX e. land. for instance While the Red Sox were obtaining 40 passes the Na- Sionals were acquiring 396 ard the White Elephants 379
 The individual pass list shows clear ly why Iris Speaker. whom many persons have the hunch will be the presented to the player in the AmeN- can league who is most valuable to his team, is the leading run getter in clearly why Eddie Collins of the Ath- letics. who hasn't come anywhere near making his 20oth base hit has man aged to cross the plate over 100 times
 Neithera Speaker nor Collins, how ever leads the American league bri-1 or is held Cor was Aug 3I) by Nor ris Rath, Chicago's lead off man who had received s1 passes. Owen Bush.

NEW MlKADO MEETS
 KAlSER'S PRINCE HENRY

Tokio, Sept. 10-Prince Henry CT Prussia. who will represent the Kaiser at the funeral of the late Mikado Mutsuhito, arrived here today. Con siderable comment was caused by the fact hat, instead of sending court and governmental officials to meet him. IS he did when Secretary of State Knox arrived, the new Mikado met Prince Henry at the railway station here in person. He will similarly honor Prince Arthur of Connaught, repre- senting King George of England, who will arrive tomorrow
 The distinction is Interpreted by many as lending color to the reports that the Japanese secretly think Sec retary Knox came rather on com merciaI mission than out of pure sym pathy and are deeply offended.

WELSH TO BOX
 M'FARLAND AT GARDEN
Promoters Turn Down WoIgast's De-
 mand For $1S,5OO.

Ad Wolgast, lightweight champion Of the world, will not receive $1S,5 for boxing Packey Mcfarland in the Gar den, New York, on September 27. It is doubtful whether he even will meet Packey in the big arena, for the Gar den A. C. decided yesterday to refuse to consider Wolgast's terms any long CT. In a word, the Garden A C. doesn't believe that Wolgast is worth the money he asks, and that bout with Mcfarland under such terms would prove a heavy loser.
 Freddie Welsh, former 1ightweight champion of England, who is matched to box Matt Wells for the British title in London, has been secured to box Mcfarland on September 27 as a sub stitute for the Wolgast affair Welsh has boxed a ten, a twenty and a twen- ty-five round bout with Mcfarland with practically no difference to choose between them. He will agree to let Packey weigh 1855 pounds at o'clock which will be largely in the Americans favor. Welsh is already in fine trim and doesn't need much hard training to be keyed up to the top notch.
