CLABBY- M'GOORTY MILL

with Dillon and ought to give a good
account of himself
If Clabby could get the winner of the
Dillon-Caponi battle and beat him de-
cisively, there could no longer be any
reason for denying Jimmy's claim to
the title of middleweight champion.
Had there not been a decision render
ed in the CIabby-McGoorty bout both
sides would have claimed victory but
the delivery and recording OF a YER
dict efrectually stopped all that sort or
nonsense. II the mo decision" clause
could only be done away with entirely
we would be rid of a hypocritical abb
surdity which has never accomplished
the one thing 1t was put into opera
ton for--the supposed stopping of bets
on contests. A rank failure IN that
particular, the mo decision" contest
has proved to be a veritable curse to
the boxing game by enabling crooked
boxers to hide their deficiencies under
the non ommittal initials IN D." that
appear with such distressing frequen-
cy in the record books. The no de-
cision" rule is unfair to the winner of
a glove battle because 1t deprives him
OF clean-cut verdict in his favor, I'M
fair to the boxing patrons because it
is impossible for them to keep inform
ed as to the exact status of the ring
performers, an dan unadulterated
blessing to a host of scheming man
ayers and inferior sluggers who are
enabled by its aid to gull the sporting
public to their hearts content.

SOX Split SERIES
BY GRABBING LAST
Get Three Runs in Third on
Triple, Two Singles, Sac
rifice and Wild Pitch.

BY coping yesterdays final game OF
the series of six with st. Louis the
White Sox emerged with an even
break against the Browns and saved
what remnant of their honor that split
entities them to retain.
The count would have been at least
one more in Chicago's favor but for
another oversight by Umpire Hide
brand, who had two close decisions to
make at the plate and hung up a
guessing average of 800. His muff
was due to overlooking the fact Sam
Agnew dropped the ball after tagging
Rath out in the second inning. This
decision probably would have resulted
in the Punishment of Manager Gala
han from the lot once more il Presi-
dent Johnson had not beaten the UNI
pires to 1t by suspending the Sox pilot
indefinitely for his two battles with
the arbitrators in previous games OF
the series.

perate assaults. This was In the fifth
inning. Then when the Trotans had
tied things up and were prepared to
go out and do battle for the winning
runs. old Doc collapsed. In the last
Of the fifth he was slaughtered and

pressing effect because Of the large
amount Of American capital invested In
the shares Of this company. The list
showed considerable irregularity.

Nearly al the list declined TO some

NEW YORK, June 27.-Inhuenced by
conditions overnight the cotton market
opened duh to-day with FIRST prices at
net unchanged to 5 points lower than
Thursdays final. A buying movement
developed later which caused recOveTies

was Influenced TO a large extent by
notices.
Incomplete returns indicated notices
OF about 20 900 bales. or half OF the
local stock. which is supposed 10 be con
trolled by Liverpool interests. They
were being stopped, according to re
ports, by a big spot house acting for
Liverpool interests. The belief seems TO
prevail that as soon as notices Is out
Of the way further advance Will come.
The ring and certain brokers who
usually represent spot houses were good
sellers Of new crop positions. However,
the latter stock took on considerable
July contracts.
The Journal Of Commerce IN its con-
dItion report Of the crop was rather
bearish on Texas and Oklahoma This
encouraged freer offerings. resulting In
prices rehexing some TO 10 points from
the previous close.
At the close the market was steady

CHICAGO BOARD BREAKS
PRECEDENT, CLOSING JULY 5

NEW YORK. June 26.-Advices from
Chicago that the Board OF Trade had
decided to observe an extra holiday on
July caused surprise all around. Not
the oldest iuhabtant can recall a time
when the Board OF Trade observed two
holidays in succession.
The New York Stock Exchanges gov
erning committee decided to close July
8, as was expected, and as the Cotton
Exchange also will observe a triple holt
day, the financial district will be de
serted to a greater extent than ever be-
fore.
