Matty Sets Example By Obeying Rules
McGraw and the Stars Must Follow
By DAMON RUNYON

inks him. Take Christy Mathewson
now He has been something of a
star himself for many years, but he is
little changed in disposition from the
time he came in. He not only i'm
picitly Obeys every rule laid down by
McGraW, but he sets an example to the
younger men by the prOmptness with
which he accepts discipline.
1T is well known that a prima
donna is nix with McGraW anyway,
and a rule for one is a rule for all on
the Giants, but in all the years of
his service no one ever heard Of
Matty presuming on his position. He
works in regular turn, or whenever
he is ordered, and he works as often,
If not Oftener, than any pitcher in
the business. His treatment in every
way is exactly the same as the treat
ment Of any other member Of the
club, and Matty does not expect or
desire anything else.
What is said of Matty is also true
Of Walter Johnson, the wonderful
Washington pitcher, and it is true OF
Ed Walsh, the great HEAVIER of the
White Sox- These men are as great
in their lines as Cobb has been in his,
and some fans viii argue that they
have been Of far greater value to
their respective clubs in every way"

Miami. Ariz., April 22.-AccOrding to
an agreement arrived at between the
Interstate Commerce commission and
all of the western railroads, the

compelled to pay what is known as a
back haul The new system IS DaSed
upon a terminal rate which viii elm

a substantial reduction in terminal

a friendly feeling with the public. It
IS understood the new rates viii be-

McGOOrty will find the Hammond boy

been against and one who viii worry
him with a left the same as he has
worried others in a similar manner.
It takes some time for boxers to
get next to themselves as regards
OF them never do get next: For
time Eddie McGoOrty, the Oshkosh mid
CleWelght, whom every writer consld-
cred had a splendid claim to the mid
dieWelght championship, had an idea
that he could og into any kind OF
contest and hold his own, whether he
was properly trained or not. as ne
had every confidence in his own
ability.
Eddie went along all right until he
bumped into Gus Christie at Fond du
Lac about a month or so ago and the
latter gave him battle he never
looked for. He taught Eddie half
lesson and when the Oshkosh boy was
matched to meet Bob Moha IN Mil
waukee he asked for a postpOnement
in order to get more time to train,
as he realized that Mona was hard
proposition. He had another scare from
Bob, for it was nip and tuck all the
way.
1t was then that 9IcGoorty realized
that he must get down to the
hardest kind Of work to get back into
proper form and as result he en-
gagged Rudie UnhOlz, the Boer light
weight who is also an excellent train
er, to help condition him Eddie's re
turn fight with Christie at Oshkosh
showed a different McGOOrty than the
one who faced Gus the first time. Ed
did exhibition of boxing skill He
fought Christie in a careful manner
doing all the aggressive work and
making a great showing But after
that McGOOrty cut loose and from the
sixth to the tenth he never was headed,
gaining a clear verdict.
Now McGOOrty is out for the title at
15S pounds and wants to meet all the
men who can do the weight and settle
the question as to who is American
champion
''The claim of Frank Klaus in Paris
does not hold for a minute said Eddie
after the Christie battle KLAUS has
beaten Papke, but that does not make
him champion by a long way. They did
not fight at the middleweight limit, but
at 100 pounds at o'clock. Klaus can
have my game over the 20 round route
any time and if we are considered the
best Of the middleweights why we viii
fight for the title. either in this coun-
try or France. It does not matter to
