ELIZABETH DROPS MATCH

Newark Eastern League bowlers
win engage In a series of matches
with the Trenton Primers, at Trenton,

scheduled for yesterday, but at the
request of the local Primers the affair

taking the measure of the locals.
Billy Weingarth's men were off form

POOR HERMANN
IN FOR MORE
TROUBLES

PITTSBURG. Dec. 1S.-That the
Fleischmanns. who control the ma
jority stock of the Cincinnati base
ball club. and who in the past have
dictated the policy of the teams man
agement. are disgusted with the
odium that has fallen on the club of
late was indicated by the communica-
tion received here today from Horace
Fogel. the former National league
masnate.
In his letter. sent to a prominent
baseball man here, Fogel declares that
the Fleischmanns are anxious 10 dis
pose of their holdings In the Cincin-
natl club. In part Fogel says:
As result of Herrmann's action
as to Tinker have been commissioned
by Max Fleischmann to try to per-
suade JEFF Livingston to purchase
their controlling interest In the team
In the event of Livingston pur-
chasing the Fleischmann interest
would certainly again have something
to say in organized baseball circles.
Livingston, to whom Fogel refers
as the probable purchaser of the Gin
cinnati team. is the head of the Sny-
der Preserving company in Cincin-
natl He is also understood to have
been Fogers financial backer while
the latter was at the head of the
Philadelphia Nationals.

HERE 8 A CHANCE
FOR la GRAVE
Or ROGERS
Winner of Tomorrow Nights
Bout May Get On With
PetroSkey

There is a chance for either Antoine
La Grave or AL Rogers to get In on a
20 round bout with Sailor Ed Petros-
key In the near future. so it is up to
these tearing middle weights TO give
, the fans the best they have in them
when they come together in the main
event of the four round show tomor-
row evening.
Petroskey decisively defeated Leo
Benz UP in Butte last evening. and his
manager. Louis Perente, wired that
the sailor will take on either La
Grave or Rogers provided that one of
them shows class enough. Such a
match would provide a nice dish for
the fans. as all three men stand well
| locally.
The betting is at even money for
tomorrow evenings mixup, although
nobody will be surprised IL La Grave
steps into the ring the favorite. He
has a great following over In Butch
ertown, and every time he starts the
fans from over south back him to the
limit, for he has been a good meal
ticket for them.
Rogers is one OF the toughest mid
die weights who ever broke into the
local four round game. He fought La
Grave off his feet on two previous oc-
casions, and there are many who be-
lieye that he will slip over a knock
out on his old rival this time. Any
how, Rogers is sure to make things
hum and La Grave is sure to come
back at him.
The real clever bout OF the evening
will be furnished by Eddie Miller and
Owen Hooker, claimants to the BAN
tam weight championship OF the Pa
| marvels, and there is nothing about
the game that they do not know.
Hooker is the better hitter. but Miller
has more boxing class. so 1T looks like
a tossup between them, although Mil
Ter will rule the favorite.
Young Joe Cans, fresh from New
Orleans, will try to show the fans a
few things about the game when he
goes against Bubbles Robinson, the
well known colored scrapper from
Los Angeles. Cans comes highly tout
ed as a good boxer and a hard hitter.
Fred Wharton, the latest knockout
sensation of the short distance game,
/ will try to put Leo Crevier away.
Crevier is a shifty feather weight,
who has shown much boxing class.
II Wharton beats him. he viii be In
line for a main event shortly.
The other bouts are as follows:
Charles Givens VS. Walter Scott, light
weights: Ralph Grammar VS.. Eddie
White, feather weights; Herb Brodie
VS.. frankie Jobes. lightweights: Jack
Morris VS.. Frank Johnson. heavy

BUTTE, Dec. 1S.-Saflor Ed Pc
trosky of San Francisco was awarded
a decision here last night over Leo
Benz of Butte at the end of IL
rounds. which were Petrosky's all the

The match was a case of practically
an inexperienced but hard hitting
youngster against a toughened middle
weight. whose aggressiveness and
ability to take punishment soon had
Benz discouraged.
Benz received a hard blow on the
nose in the second round, which drew
blood. The men weighed in at 15S

Edward u. Smith is facing a

the National Bureau of Identifi-
cation was good at recognizing
photographs.
Smith was soldier at Fort
st. Michaels in Alaska. When
Lieut.. A. Elliott Brown left the
post temporarily, he had to leave
blank checks to carry on the post
business. Smith is said to have
stolen a bunch of them, came to
Seattle and Tacoma and proceed
ed by clever forgery and an ex-
hibition of nerve in cashing them
to gather in about 5000.
Then he disappeared. He was
indicted last fall but the officers
after TRACKING him to Butte lost
trace of him.
Recently he got mixed up in
some minor trouble at San Ra-
fael, Cal. His picture was taken
and the National Bureau of
Identification, alert to gather in
the 5000 reward offered by Uncle
Sam, recognized him.
In the federal marchal's office
here this morning he said he was
ready to plead guilty and take his

So said to me the captain of the
worlds first "six-cylinder road

the 21-year-old who has brought
"highwaying" in this country up
to twentieth century degree of
efficiency. He said it from be-
hind the bars of Chicago jail,
but he said it with pride-a just
pride, as he thought, in being the
first to utilize the mechanical
marvels of science in following
the world-o1d profession of Capt.
Kidd and all his notorious story
book cnfreres.
1t was the pride, of course, that
goes before a fall-a great fall,
because Robert Webb is already
