DETROIT, Mich, July 16.-President
James McAleer of the Boston Ameri-
cans would not discuss tonight the
statement given out in New York today
by President. Johnson of the American
league in which the league head Sc
yerely criticised McAleer's action in
releasing Jake Stahl
There isn't much to say on the StalTl
matter" said McAleer. The change in
the club was precipitated by Stahl
himself.
Are YOU figuring on making a
change in the managership of the
team? he asked me in Chicago.
Not this season I replied.
At the end of the year?' he asked.
1t is possible there may be a
change them I replied.
We'll, in that case said Stahl. L
might as well get through now,
" DO you mean that you wish to re-
signG l asked.
Pay me TO the end Of the season

have drawn had he gone all the way

A meeting OF leading state highway

Chairman George c. Diahi OF the A.

consider legislation governing the
width OF tires and the weight Of

Many states have enacted laws to
regulate the width of tires. out there

There is no state where wide-tire ordi-
nances are drawn which relate 10 both
horse-drawn and motor-driven We
hicles. or where a scientific attempt
has been made to prepare such ordi-
nanees or where strict enforcement
is had.
1T is also entirely practicable and
reasonable that the weight OF loads
should be limited, as the bridges,
which form an integral part of the
highway. are not. in a great major
ity of cases, sufficiently strong to
carry weights which are becoming
more and more excessive"

FOR DIVORCE ALLEGING IN
HUMAN TREATMENT

Portland, Ore, March Alleging
inhuman treatment, misrepresenta-
ton, undue influence, threats of vio-
1ence and bodily injury. Mrs Fay
King Nelson will begin suit next week
against Battling Nelson, her pugilist
husband, who lived with her three
days.
TT is simply a case of where Fay
married Bat to get rid of him, OF
where she was so badly frightened
she thought the only way to get out
of it was to marry him. said Jack
King of this city, father of Mrs. Mel
son, yesterday
st dent understand it at ALL con-
tinued Mr.. King. ST don't see why
Bat should have insisted on marrying
Fay when she told him that she did
not love him.
Bat acted like crazy man and Fay
was afraid of him. He just took her
by storm. He told Fay at Denver
when they left that they would go
by way of Portland but when Fay
got on the train he took her to Chi
cago and then home, and there, Fay
alone and without friends, went
through a ceremony, but she never
lived with Bat five minutes She
liked Bat and SO did L, and stin
think lots of him, but now [ don't
know what to think of his factions.
fsAfter Fay married him and came
home. we tried to pacify her and to
get her to satisfy herself with Bat,
but in spite of what she told her
friends, that she was happy, she con-
fessed to US that she could never live
with Bat as his wife and would not.
We knew when she left here that she
would sue for divorce
Fay doesn't want cent of ali
mony and only wants to have her
maiden name restored Naturally,
we feel very badly over the affair, as
Fay is our only child and we always
liked Bat
The couple were married at Hege-
wisch, Ill, on January %.

Marlin Tex. March lit is simply

out of the headlines. The celebrated
Sac and Fox Indian inserted another
one Of his famous honers in yester-
days doings, and he came through at
the psychological moment. Had the
Olympic marvel been the hero of a
fiction yarn he could not have deliv-

more opportune moment
The Remnants, as the Scrubs have
been called, put UP a stern resistance
until Mighty Jim routed them with his
four-furlong drive. The score was 8

sacks in pursuit of his two pals, maxi
ing the score to 8.

ty Moha. I had made up my mind
to go after all the men in my class,
above the ITO or below the 1so-pound
mark, but this setback will probably
make me change my mind. Just now
feel like retiring, but you know a
boxer is like an actor-he never wants
to quit, as the glare of the stageGghts
seems to have sort of fascination for
him. I may decide to take on anoth-
er bout or two before retire but
not for a while. 1t is too hard work
training now, as I find it difficult to
get off the flesh and into proper shape.
When man gets near the 4O-year
mark he finds it much different

battle. Moha handed out some pref
ty stiff jolts with his right and left,
but they never phased me bit, but
when he got to my stomach with
straight rights it hurt, but I recov-

choppy blows and, for a man of his
build is fast I hurt my hand in the
fifth round and could not use it af-

difference as to the result It will

.SHAFER DENIES
SIGNING CONTRACT
GIANT INFIEnDER SAYS 1rGRAw
HASN'T GIVEN HIM ENOUGH
SALARY YET.

Los Angeles, March Arthur sha-
fer, substitute infieIder of the New
York Giants, who has been holding
out for a higher salary than the New
York club named in two contracts
sent to him, last night denied the
story sent out from the Giants train
ing camp at Marlin yesterday that he
signed with the team.
The story was to the effect that
Shafer had wired Manager McGraw
that he had signed a contract for
three years and would leave here in
a few days to join the team Shafer
declared that there was no truth in
the report. He sent a long letter to
Manager MeGraw yesterday and in no
uncertain terms explained to the New
York manager just how he stood on
the salary question. Neither of the
contracts rendered to Shafer comes up
to the expectations of the latter, and
he again announced that he would
retire from baseball this year unless
his salary demands are met

CAMBRIDGE AND
OXFORD TO COME
WILLING TO ENTER TRACK MEET
WITH YALE AND HARVARD.

Cambridge, Mass, March Harvard
and Yale have taken the initial steps
in the proposed international track
meet with Cambridge and Oxford at
the Harvard Stadium. An invitation
to come here is now on it's way
abroad The date set for the games is
still undecided The Americans favor
June 81 or %; the Britishers favor a
July date.
This will be the fifth time the two
combinations have clashed, the Eng
lish having won three Of the meets.
Phil Baker, whose victory in the mile
gave his fellow athletes a to win
over the Americans in 1911, visited
this country recently.
He stated that both Cambridge and
Oxford would gladly bring a, band
of athletes to this country if sufficient
funds could be raised, hence the pres
ent invitation.
The events suggested are: The 100
yard dash, 400 yard dash, 100 yard shur-
dies, high jump, broad jump, hammer
throw, $50 yard run, mile run, three
mile run, and two of the following
three events; go yard dash 220 yard

DUFFY LEWIS GAVE
UP WHEN THREATENED
WITH ST. LOUIS EXILE

Boston, Feb. 2S.-President James r.
McAleer's telegram to Duffy Lewis,
which stated that Duffy could accept
the contract sent him by the Red Sex
management as it stood or he could
remain in California, must have start
ed the left fielder of the worlds cham
pIons thinking along a different line
than heretofore, for Lewis wired the
Boston American League manage
ment recently that he was wholly sat
isfed with his contract, which he
would sign, and that the club could
make arrangement for his tranporta-
ton to- Hot Springs.
Lewis has been differing with the
local office all winter over his con-
tract When the contracts were sent
out, Duffy's called for a very sub
stantia1 raise, but to the surprise of
all he sent it back, stating that he
would not under any consideration af-
fix his signature to the document. Re-
port after report come from CaIifor-
mia during the winter telling of the
various offers Lewis has received to
coach, and that if he did not get the
amount he desired he would stay on
the coast .
The Red Sox management paid alb
solutely no attention to the rumors
about Lewis with the exception of
McAleer's message and the result was
that Lewis decided that the club own
ers did not hold him in such high es-
TEEN as he held himself and that it
would not take much more see-saw-
ing before they disposed of him
Lewis will depart at once for Hot
Springs, where he will be obliged to
do some very strenuous training to
get down to playing condition, for he
has taken on much weight since the
close of the worlds series:

KNlPPER WILL BE
AUTO PILOT AGAIN
SENDS IN ENTRY FOR 50O-MILE
SWEEPsTAKE RACE AT
INDIANAPOLIS.

Indianapolis, Ind, March f-SloW1y
but surely the best pilots in this and
foreign countries are sending in their
entries for the third annual 500 mile
run at the Indianapolis Speedway on
May 30. To a list of entries that al
ready reads like the programme of
any of the big automobile racing
events of recent years William Knip-
per has added his name. Knipper was
thought to have abandoned the rae
ing game for the more safe occupa-
IDENTIFY he could not resist the oppor-
tunity to take just one more whirI at
the game that has made him famous.
Knipper's car will be a four cylin-
der equipped with demountab1e wire
wheels to facilitate tire changes, and
will be entry Mo. 10 when it takes its
place at the starting line. The chassis
of the car will. be the same as the
regular Henderson models, the only
difference being the fitting of a rae
ing body. One feature of this will be
the placing of the mechanics seat five
inches back of the driver to give
greater freedom AS the Henderson
is left drive car the mechanic,
Frank Jones, another veteran who
had been Knipper's mate in former
years, will ride on the drivers right.
Knipper. is going to try to annex
the laureIS thaI 1eA 10 HarrOun N

other racing drivers he had retired
from the game and become a partner
of William Kipp, and Is one of Ro-
chester's most reliable automobile
men But as the time of the race ap-
preached he felt yearning to again
return to the speed arena This will
be Knipper,s third appearances at the
indianapolis Motor Speedway, having
teamed with Burman at the wheel of
a Benz in 1911 and aided the Stutz in
putting the car in the money in the
last race, when he was relief driver
for that team.

M'AULIFFE AND
JOE SHEA CLASH
IN. FURIOUS DRAW
BIG DELEGATION OF LOCAL FANS
AT RINGSIDE OF NEW
HAVEN SHOW.

The feuds of the Kentucky noun
ta;Eeers or the gang fights of New
1ork's e'1oin had nothing on the
slam bang battles that were staged
at the Casino in New Haven last
night. Tt, appeared as If all the
boxers who had been laying for each
other for years had been turned loose
into the ring. The result was a
bloodthirsty spectacle that looked like
a quiet day in the Mexican Revolu-
ton league
Instead of dancing lessons that we
usually see and the efforts of the
boxers to count the house with one
eye and watch the opponent WITH the
other. the boys went at it as If they
meant business. In every bout the
contestants even fought in the clinces
and Referee Dave Fitzgerald had hard
best show staged in this state in re-
cent years.
A big delegation " en-. from this city
to see the star bout in which Young
McAuIiffe of this city and joe Shes
of Waterbury were the contestants.
There were two special trolley cars
and a special train that was filed to
the platforms.
A draw is a fair verdict in the Nc
AuIiffe-Shea fight. The boys were
syenly matched ALTHOUGH their $ vic.
are entirely different. Both were in
good shape. They mixed things IRON
Fell to bell and the fact that they
were serious was shown by the fliri-
Gus manner in which they cIoutet
each other in the c1inclles.

boy against the ropes and apparent
" had him going. Shea rallied in
the next round, though.
In view of the fact that both boys
were in good condition at the finish
and taking into consideration their
different styles of fighting, a draw
seems to us to be the fair decision
Kid PaIitz. a chunky boy from New
London, tore Bunny Ford of New Ha-
ven to ribbons. These lads didn't
waste any time but swatted each other
right merrily. PaIitz had a strange
way of leading but he brought home
the bacon. The bout went ten ROUNDS
and at the end Ford looked as il he'd
been in a railroad wreck
Mickey Brown Of Boston earned
decision over Buddy FauIkes OF
Waterbury. Brown is clever
youngster who has a kick in either
hand he had Faulkes guessing at
times. The bout went ten rounds.
In the preliminary six round affair,
Kid Bunyan and Wa1Iy the Barber, a
couple of comic supplement affairs
went at it. WaI1y devoted his time
to walking in and leaning against
Bunyan and at the end it looked as If
Wally was worse than his opponent.
