Washington, Aug. 22.-Thomas A.
Moves. president of the washington
baseball club. joint proprietor of the
washington Evening Star and son
of the late Crosby Noyes, pioneer in
Washington Journalism. died at the
Homeopathic hospital here yesterday
of pneumonia. from which he had been

years.

Taking a chance that it's all right
like Mr.. Ed Lear did when he tried to
open that famous Latonia freeze-out
game with a king, queen, jack and
pair of deuces-is a quality that
horsemen are not evidencing right
now. The men who pay the feed bills
for the American race aorses OF the
present day are not going to ship to
Indiana for fifteen days racing with
out some pretty big inducements. and
how is a new track going to outbid
Kentucky, where the smallest purse is
$500 and the largest $4,000?
The Indiana turf revival is solely a
gamble, with the odds heavily against
the horsemen, despite the recent glow
ing articles which have appeared in
the sheet which claims to be ''the on
ly daily newspaper in existence, etc"
The interests of the horsemen may
have been unbalanced by the sale of
advertising space and forth.
Outlook Nome Too Bright.
Getting away from personalities.
however. and looking the Indiana stu
ton squarely In the eye, 1t must be
acknowledged that the promoters of
the scheme have some job ahead of
them. Managers of the Kentucky
track-the most popular In the coun-
Try from norSemanS standpoint
are even now bewailing the fact that
there is scarcity of horses. while the
positive assurance of almost continu-
GUS racing in the east Is not attract
ing overabundance OF horses to
Maryland. Bush" horses that are not
good enough for racing on the major
tracks will never furnish the means
for rehabihtating the sport near Chi
cago, so 1t is likely that the proposed
meeting at Porter Will fall far below
expectations If launched at the pres
ent time.-Chicago American.

It is almost possible now to reach
up and touch that pennant now. In
one Of the greatest combats of the
year the rampant Cubs routed the Gil
ants yesterday at the west side park
and pulled themselves up to a position
four and one-half games from first
place. The score was to 0.
Glass, determination and gameness
warriors. They made the victory the
most decisive and most thrilling of all.
presenting a wonderful defense that
shut out the champions and sent them
on their way with heavy hearts. At
no time this season have the Cubs
been so close to the top. AT one time
they were fifteen games behind.
Lew Richie. the lurid one of the
west side club. fairly reveied in the
glory of the day. He had beaten the
New Workers twice last week and he
came back and made the rout com
plete by shutting them out. Big Jeff
Tesreau opposed him. jeff was the
pitcher in the game last week that
New York won. and McGraw used him
as a trump card in his desperation
Jeff was battered down INTO submits

later retired in favor of Otis Crandall,

Milwaukee, wis. Aug. 22.-"The
statement by Jack Johnson in Chicago
that Hugh Mcintosh had not offered
him (Johnson) $4,000 for his meet
ings with Langford and McVey in Au-
stralia is not correct" said T. s. An

here today.

johnson signed a contract to meet
these two men for s45, 900 and $4,000
expenses, also three tickets, which is
the same as $4,000 for the two bouts.
Mr.. Mcintosh wanted to deposit the
$4,000 forfeit in q Chicago bank, but
Johnson objected, insisting that AL
derman AL Tearney be made stake
holder. and also insisting that $4,000
expenses be put up at once.
Finally Mr.. Mcintosh agreed to
post the money with Mr.. Tearney, and
all Jack has to do is to say the word
and the money win be turned over to
Mr.. Tearney. All that Mcintosh asks
is guarantee that Johnson will go
to Australia and carry out his part of
the agreement.

LACK OF HORSES MAY HALT
INDIANA TURF REVIVAL.

Scarcity of thoroughbreds threatens
to burst the Indiana turf bubble. The
men behind the proposed revival of
racing in the nearby state have just
commenced to realize that it takes
something more than an abundance of
money to operate a race track. That
is. run one of a character that would
attract the patronage of the Chicago
turf fans.
Statistics show that there are less
than two thousand thoroughbreds in
active training not only in the United
States but in Canada and Mexico COM
bined OF this number more than one
half are broken-down racers whose
only chance of earning money for
their owners is by participating In So
called racing on the half-mile tracks
that unfortunately infest Ontario and
the southwestern part of this country
thousand thoroughbreds of merit in
America fit for racing purposes.
Horses I'm Great Demand.
Now, take a slant at the racing cal
endar for the next three months
Nearly one hundred days of racing is
scheduled to begin In Maryland and
Virginia within the next week sc
with very generous purse induce
ments. Reverting to the middle west
it Is found that the richest stakes and
purses offered In this country this
season are to be decided in Kentucky
where racing recommences a week
from Saturday and continues for six
ty days. Then. too, don't forget tina
Canadian tracks will be giving away
about $4,000 a day in purses for the
next month or two. to say nothing o.
the activity of far western courses OF
the string of half mile tracks across
the border.
