ONCE MORELYNCH
TURNSDOWN CUBS
Forfeit Against Trojans to
Stand-No More Short
Games Permitted.

New York, July 11.-President
Thomas J. Lynch of the National
league has refused to uphold the pro-
test filed by the Chicago club in the
game with st. Louis at Chicago on
Sunday, July 6. Lynch in his find
ings yesterday states:
This game was played under an
agreement to stop play at 5 o'clock
and was forfeited to the visiting club
by Umpire Eason for the reason that
the Chicago club, with the score
against them, employed tactics de-
signed to delay the game. The UNI
pire, from the evidence it appears,
was fully justified in FORGETTING this
game under authority of section 4,
rule 26 of the playing rules. The pro-
test of the Chicago club is dismissed
and the game stands as awarded.
In this connection attention is call
ed to the fact that managers Tin some
cases without consent of club ownersC
have entered into agreements to stop
play at a certain hour in order to
catch early trains. This practice has
grown into an abuse grossly unfair to
the public and in violation of the spirit
of the playing rules. Umpires will
hereafter observe no agreement of
such nature except it be absolutely
necessary in order to allow one hodr
to catch the last train by means OF
which either team can reach SEIZED
uled point in time.

FRED CLARKE AFTER
PUGILISTIC JUMPS

Pittsburgh, Pa, July 11-Manager
Clarke of the Pirates has filed sworn
charges with National league Presi-
dent Lynch, accusing Umpire Bren-
nan of challenging Pitcher Cooper to
fight under the Philadelphia grand
stand after Tuesdays game with Phil
adelphia. Cooper is said to have &C
cepted, and Brennan was absent.
Clarke wired President Dreyfuss of
the Pittsburgh club this information
yesterday, together with the informa-
ton that the fine of $25 imposed on
Cooper had been paid under protest.
Clarke also charges that Brennan re-
marked: "Now go and hire some more
detectives to trail umpires." The lat
ter remark is said to have grown out
of an order by Lynch to the Pirates
to have Owens Swallowed some time
ago.

President Comiskey is reported anx-
ious to have the spitball king join the
club at the earliest possible moment
Clarence Rowland made no promises
to the Old Roman when closing the
deal, but can be relied upon to sacri-
fee "Hy" early if necessary to please
Comiskey. At the time of the sale
it was announced that Jasper would
report to Chicago Aug. 20. new
rule, fostered by the class AA clubs at
the meeting of the National Associa-
ton of Professional Baseball leagues
in Milwaukee last fall effected an ar
rangement whereby player sold
prior to the drafting season must re-
port before the day this season opens
which is Aug. 81. Necessarily it was
supposed at the time Jasper was sold
on future delivery" that Rowland
would retain him to the very last day.
Jasper has asked that he be permitted
to spend a few days at his home in
ST. Louis before reporting to the Sox.
This wish will be granted.-Dubuque

NOTES OF THE GAME.

Becker sure won himself a home
yesterday. His foot slipped in the
fourth inning. but it did not matter.
Lynch had singled. Duggan drove a
clean one to center and the new man
allowed the pill to get away from him,
Lynch running all the way to third
and Duggan winding up at the key
stone. Blake then whanged a long fly
to right, and with Lynch roosting on
third, the score was easy after the
catch.
Biltz retired the entire Sox side in
the sixth, Carrigan, Becker and Brom-
witch looping to center successfully.
George Reed, the new pilot of the
Harps is poor loser. Yesterday he
put up yeip on hits to the press
coop inhabitants. And Decatur only
got so blows in the three games. Some
people want the earth.
Commodore Reed looks real nifty
with his Mark Twain sartorial eff
fects. He got rather peevish after
losing yesterdays game, but then, may
be he wagered thin dime that his
boys would sweep the series. If
George will put us hep as to the ac-
curacy of our conjectures, we will
gladly enclose him 10 cents in stamps.
Just before the game, it was rumor-
ed that Jim Hayes had disposed of
Neer, KOepping, Flaharty, Hendrix
and Cooper At about the same time
it was discovered that the fence had
caught fire, just back of the club
house. Whether or not a disgruntled
bug was responsible for the bon fire
is mystery. At any rate, Harry
Ohland. who was doing bench duty,
scabbed on the firemans union, and
extinguished the confagration with
the garden hose
Pete Lister arrived here this morn
ing owing to the death OF a relative

PLAN BENEFIT GAME
FOR JIMMY DOYLE

New York, July Manager Evers
of the Cubs and Manager Tinker of
the Reds got together yesterday morn
ing at the Reds hotel across the
street and practically agreed on ben
eft game for the widow of the late
Jimmy Doyle some time in September
at the Cubs park.
The plan preached by Evers and
agreed to by Tinker was to get the
old Cub machine together so as pos
sible to play an exhibition game with
some team not yet selected.
Brown, Tinker and King of the
Reds will join the Cubs for that day,
and it is planned to get Artie Hof.
man back in the league for the occa.
sion. Frank Chance also will be ash
ed to play first Dase if it is possible
for him to go to Chicago.
The Cubs and Reds have a bunch
of open dates in the latter part OF
September, and one of these will be
used for the benefit. The two mana
gers, who have been decidedly cool
toward each other all the year, ap
parently parted better friends than
they have been for years.

CLEVELAND ATHLETES

New York, July 11.-SlXteen men,
bers of the Cleveland baseball club of

ident David l.. Fultz announced the
list of the new members to be as fol-
lows:

Joseph Jackson, Wilbur Johnson,
George Kahler, Grover Land, Napo-
leon Lajoie, William Mitchell, Ivan

ORGANIZED GAMBLING ON
BALL GAMES AT ST. LOUIS

st. Louis, Mo, July 11.-Organized
gambling on baseball is flourishing in
st. Louis. Reporters have discover
ed that cigar stores, saloons and other
places of business make no secret of
the fact that they are selling pools
unmolested by the police. Anybody
is welcome to buy chances. Analysis
of the way the business is run shows
that the makers of the pool stand to
make almost so per cent of all money
paid for tickets, while there is always
a probability they will make more
than so per cent. The tickets for
chances cost % cents.

AURORA AND CANTON
WANT PEKIN'S CLUB

Peoria, Ill, July 11.-Aurora and
Canton are both making an attempt
to secure the franchise forfeited by
Pekin in the Illinois Missouri league.
Aurora, it is said, will give President
Cline an answer tonight
The Pekin players have not been
disposed of and Manager Diehl is
awaiting orders from President Cline.
An effort was made to have the Pekin
team go to Kankakee and play the
games as scheduled, but the Pekin
players refused because their salary
had not been paid.
