 SAMMY ROBlDEAU
Gives Former Sailor Fine Trim ming in Ten Round
 Bout

Pounding away like an electric trip hammer, steadily. ceaseIessly and live ly. Joe Shugrue Of Jersey City wore down sammy Robideau of Philadelphia In the first eight rounds, dropped him twice in the ninth session. once in the tenth chapter and won by large margin at Madison Square Garden, New York, last night At the finish Robideau had an "egg'' under his left eye. his nose was battered and his lips cut Shugrue's eye was puffed also. Robideau weighed 1S3 pounds and Shugrue half a pound less.
 Shugrue scored three clean knock down and at the finish Robfdeau was so weak and groggy that he just man aged to keep his feet until the last bell. From the fourth round to the finish 1t was all Shugrue's battle, with occasional rallies on the part of the Quaker City lad to relieve the bout from descending into an uneven match,

WILD PITCH IN
 10TH GIVES GAME
 TO M'CANN'S MEN
(Ry Wagner.l

 As lawn J. McGFaw recently said in one of his dollar 8 word articles, sits
 the little things that count in base ball. lawn said something then. Bridgeport and Waterbury struggled for ten innings yesterday at Newfeld and in the final session the Mechan- fcs had men on second and third and two out.
 Catcher Brady of the visitors sign ed for fast ball and pitcher Stew enson nodded But he crossed his catcher and threw a slow wide curve. Brady was taken off his guard and the ball just touched his glove, then rolled to the stand. Russell dashed home with the winning run and Brady hurled his mask to the ground in an- ger.
 That was the second time Stevenson has crossed Brady that way. Tn a 13 inning game last Sunday he did the same thing. He looks like a good pitcher but he loses his nerve in pinch. Waterbury secured him from the St. Louis Nationals The ball that let in the final tally should be scored as a wild pitch because the catcher didn't have a fair chance to stop it under the circumstances.
 It was a tame ending to fine game. The Mechanics couldn't do much with Stevenson's cross fire and made only four hits. Frank Rapp, the new south paw, made his second appearance and got in right. He had his curve ball working we'll and six of the enemy famed. Only six safet1eS were yield ed. two of those going to Kenneth Nash, the forner Brown University star. After the first inning, Water bury couldn't score. Nash's single his steal and Roeyss double made that run
 BridgepoFt evened up in the third Rapp strolled and Bowman sacrificed. Boultes took three swings but steamer F1anagan's grUunder went through Bakers legs and Rapp registered
 The Bridgeport inf1e1d played snap py ball, the only error being the drop ping of a thrown ball by MUGazmweIl- Bowman ana Stow made several good stops In fine second stevenson jolt ed a grounfer over the middle bag and Stow made a dazzling one hand stop Dusty Phillips robbed Howie Baker of a triple by running catch in the fourth.

 two games he issued only two passes Owner Sam Kennedy of the Water bury franchise was in New York Wed nesday trying to land a. third base man but he returned yesterday empty handed. He says it Is hard to gei men at this time in the season. He concluded to give Howde Baker of this city another chance. The local boy played fair game yesterday.
 The Mechanics left this morning for Hofyoke for a two day stay. As the PaperrnaIzers have just finished trimming New London three straight, they feel pretty chesty. Blossom Blum was slated to work. On Sunday Springfield will play the locals at New1eld. Robertai1He or Tuckey will pitch.

 Three candidates are mentioned for Mike Murphy's place as trainer of Pennsylvania athletes. Sweeney of Hill school, Moalxly of Corntu and Kraenzlein, the former star hurler, are considered It Is not probable that either Sweeney or NToakley can be se- cured so Kraenzlein will probably get the job.

One hot day last summer Fred Mer- kle of the Giants had just scored from first on a, long hit A few moments later, playing first, he chased four long fouls in succession, just missing each one by a, step.
 As the fifth foul looped up, some 50 feet away, dizzy, tired out and all in. MerkIe only trotted for it, where he couldn't have snagged it at full speed.
 As he picked up the ball he looked up into the red, apoplectic face of an enraged fan only ten or twelve feet away giving this advice:

June S-Coach Hiram Conibear had his Washington oarsrnen out for their first row on the Hudson yesterday afternoon, Aand he announced that his crews would practice only once day every after noon between 4 and o'clock, the time scheduled for the big race on June 2I This is an innovation, as every coach has his crews on the river twice a day rowing from five to nine miles at each practice.
 Late yesterday afternoon the eight crews of Cornell, Columbia and Wash ington were on the course together and, under ideal conditions the oars men had the most satisfactory prso- tice since their arrival. All crews rowed up the river to the head of the course, and then rowed over the four miles to the finish mark

MILL IS PLANNED FOR
 NACOzARI CONS. CO.

From all accounts the property of the iNacozari Consolidated Copper company is coming rapidly to the front. This company owns a large concession, aggregating some 200 acres, adjoining the Pilares mine ol the Pehlps Dodge company on the east and south, and it believes the big P1Iares copper ore body extends through this ground. They are driy- ahead steadily with a big tunnel to intersect this deposit and report fine progress.
 The company has an up 10 date 80 horse power boiler and compress or at the mouth of their main tun- nel, wE-ch is now into the mountain approximately 1500 feet The eoun- try through which they have already driven is cut by a number of strong veins of lead-silver-giid ore, yielding very substantial values, and on three of these veins the development mas been sufficient to guarantee a daily tonnage that will warrant the installa- ton of a mill
 Information Is that plans are well advanced for the reection of a con CentFatlbB p4dnA Oi HOt iesS thaA AVV tons daily capacity on this property, and it Is expected to have it in ope- ration by the first Of the coming year. Ample flow Of water is at hand for the treatment Of a much greater tonnage. Local stockholders who gYaye recently visited the property are iubilant over the outlook and do not hesitate to predict that another dividend payer will be aided to the list before many months.
 The president of the company, Jno c. Alexander. is miner widely known throughout this section. He has been tireless in promoting this enterprise and keeping the work go ing and his many friends will be glad to learn that his efforts promise to he crowned with success.
