The clever Hudsons intended to do
some practising in order to further
perfect their teamwork to meet the
heavy Missouri combination. The re-
port that the visitors would be handi-
capped by the cinder field and that
they are accustomed to playing on the
turf is not true, as their field in st.
Louis is of the same sort as the Hud-
sons.
One thing is certain, the st. Leos
will be given a terrific tussle. and
they may meet with a sharp surprise.
Because of the distance between the
home towns of the two teams no real
point can be CLEANED.
Plans are afoot TO give the West

MORE BOXING
FOR NEWARK
Prof. La Raus Will Stage Bouts
at Turnbull Auditorium Week
ly, Starting March 28.

Newark boxing devotees who believe
in the adage Boost Newark" will have
further opportunity to live up to their
code of ethics within the next fort
night.
A new boxing club, to be conducted
by w. La Raus, a well-known local
physical culture instructor, will throw
open its doors at the Turnbull Hall,
Market street, on Thursday night,
March 20.
Mr.. La Raus has for years main
tanned a physical culture chool at S25
Broad street, where the instruction OF
boxing has been one of the principal
courses. A few years ago La Raus
conducted boxing bouts and always
had a reputation for being dead on the
level, above board.
He has hired Matty Reilly, former
matchmaker for the Proctor A. c., to
arrange bouts for his first show. Mr..
La Raus declares that he will not try
to go above four rounds in arranging
bouts.

war correspondents from the training
camp of the Chicago Cubs, down at
New Orleans. Messrs. Joe McGinnity
and George Solomon are keeping a
strict watch on the youngsters. especial
ly pitchers, whom Frank Chance has
under his wing. For if the local club
decides to take any athletes from G.
Webb Murphy's club in exchange for
Charley Smith and Joe Agler they will
probably be pitchers.
The most promising twirling phenom
uncovered by the Cub leader to date
is a Mr.. Dresser, who is n left-hander
with remarkable control and a sharp
break to his fast ones. Recently Dress
sen pitched against the New Orleans
nine, which had been playing ball for
a month in Panama, and h Pelicans

May 10.
Charley Murphy arrived in the Cub
camp yesterday to talk over with
Frank Chance several deals he Will
have to put over in order to fulfill his
agreements with minor league clubs.
Chance, therefore. will start the weed
ing cut tomorrow or Saturday, and it
is likely that the Newark fans may get
some news on new pitching material
in the very near future.
George Stallings has been trying to
nail Catcher Cotter from Chance, but
Montreal will probably get the former
Philly backstop if he is let out. The
Cubs have Archer, Needham, Cotter
and Walsh to do backstop duty, and
three of these men will be retained.
Needham will act as coach of pitchers,
as Chance says he never had any idea
of letting Tom go, though Murphy ap-
peared willing to send him to Newark
at one time. Therefore, it is a fight
between Cotter and Walsh to see who
makes good the position as third
catcher,

Frank Million and John Chapman.
owners of the Velodrome. are making

be successful. Manager Chapman has
had several conferences with Chairman
Kelsey, of the racing hoard Of the

proposition is to be taken up with ths
racing board. Mr.. Kelsey favora New

will recommend to the board that the
race be held here.
The cycling end of the olympiad ss

Salt Lake City and San Francisco in
the near future, and shortly after these
trial races have been run the candi-
dates win meet in one grand final, in
which the first o men will make the
Olympic team. The detafsn OF thaae
trial races have no been worked out
yet. but the distance OF the trials viii
probably be either fifty or serenity
Ave miles. The Olympic race f. over
a course that is 200 miles In length and
makes a complete circuit of Lake Ma
lar. The roads in the vicinity Of New
ark are similar to those over which
the Olympic race will be held. In fact.
it would be possible TO MAJ out a
course here for the final trial race that
would be almost a duplicate and would
provide a most efficient fnsl trial FOR
the riders.
In addition to the natural advantages
offered for holding the final trial here,
Messrs. Million and Chapman have
made the n. C. A. a proposition that
viii net the Olympic fund a subetan-
tial sum. The proposal OF the local pro-
moters is to nave the race finish on
the velodrome as a part OF the pro-
gram of a regular meet, and they WIN
give the gross receipts to the Olympic
fund after deducting the actual ex-
! penses connected with running the
meet on that day. In view Of the fact

money to see a ten-round bout be-

Charles White disqualified Hogan after
the men had fought less than one
round. 1t is positive that neither Of
the men really knew what had hap
pened when the referee left the ring.
Cross was the most surprised, and at
first refused to go when exhorted by
his seconds. who told him in wild tones
thai he had been declared the winner.
Several at the ringside had heard
White announce Cross the winner; but
those in the 81 and 81 seats could hear
nothing and were wondering why there
was such a long delay before the fight
was resumed.
No one left the hall, and when five
minutes had passed the crowd was in
an uproar. Threatening terms were
heard, and many We're on hand who
suggested a breaking of the furniture.
Finally Joe Humphries jumped into
the ring and said: "On behalf of the
