AMarvel Of CIeverness, Charley Weinert.
the New Jersey Champion, Administers
to Tommy Madden Good Lacing.


really overplayed himself in his ef-
forts. He beat his opponent into a
state of retreat in the very first
round, in which he showed so
much class and cleverness that his
work was really astounding. His left
hand jab is a work of art, and he
also hooks beautifully with that
member. His right-hand uppercut is
well delivered and effective, and he
also swings with his right in most
handy manner. One fight over In
Madison Square Garden would make
Weinert. but Percy Woodruff. his
manager. would be making a big
mistake to overmatch the boy before
he is thoroughly developed. He is a
better man than Levinsky, but Man
ager Woodruff will not allow him
to fight the Battler again until Dan
Morgan makes good on the side bet
with Percy. Then he will talk business
to Morgan, and Weinert will give
Levinsky another beating, with a few
additional thumps for the trick Nor
gan played on Woodruff.
! c.
| In the battle with Madden, Wei
merit hardly turned hair, as the say
ing goes. He boxed as only Weinert
can box. and he slugged every now
and then to make the contest inter-
esting. At times when Madden
would cover up, Weinert would be-
come Disguised and show a tendency
to get careless. Madden soon got
wise to this and he played 'possum"
more than once in the hope of catch
ing Charley off his guard. He did
land one or two good wallops on
Weinert's face and head, and / was
glad to see 1t, for the Kid is still en-
tirely too careless when he isn't right
on his mettle In the heat of the COM
bat. At the first let up, and when
he knows the going is easy, Weinert
does more kidding than necessary.
Fighting is a business, and Weinert
should take the game more seriously.
That he is clever enough to make
/ his opponent look like a SUCKER" as
the saying goes, is all the better for
| him, and that he should become care
less or show his disgust because of
the lack of battle on his adver-
sary's part is simply out of order.
Go
The show throughout was an ex-
cellent one. and Gus Troxler does well
in his matchmaking. He put on a
card of bouts last night that would
'toney' New York audiences. He gave
his patrons so much boxing that they
must surely have had their fill. The
main bout between Weinert and Mad
den was an attraction in itself. but
on top of that he staged a semi final
and six preliminary bouts, Out OF the
nights milling came two pretty fair
prospects. One was Kid Beck, of Eliz-
abeth, who gave Danny Uraine, OF
this city, a good beating. The other
was Young McCarty, of the vailsburg
section, who knocked out Kid Greeny,
a local celebrity McCarty has a wall
lop that any white hope" would be
proud of. and he seemed to have had
some experience in the roped arena.
He was cool and handled himself as
II he knew how to hit, and when he
hit he hit like the kick of a mule. Yes,
McCarty and Beck are good boys and
they deserve more work at the Trox-
Ter shows.
| Joe Tinker admits that he has
signed with the OUTLAW" Federal
League, and he is quoted as being
ticlkled over the fact Mordecai
Brown is also similarly pleased, and
it would seem that all the ball play
ers that have. quit the old love for
the new are thoroughly satisfied with
their venture. That being the case,
1t is to be presumed that they will
make good, strong effort to make the
Federal League a huge success, and
that In the event of the failure of
the OUTLAW" organization, Tinker,
Brown and others will not do the
baby act and cry to get back in the
big leagues among the regular fell
lows"

The baseball fight is on, and 1t
will eventually be a good thing for
the great national game. The reg
ulars'' will win because the solid
men will stick to their post and wait
and see how the outlaws" are maxi
ing out 1t IL all right that other
men should branch out in opposition
to those now in control Of the sport.
and while it might be well to urge
the winners to be humble in their
victory. 1t is only fair to presume
that those who were mainly respon-
sible for the war, II beaten, should
suffer the most.
O.
Il So far. Tinker is the worst offender,
and, naturally, the big fight win be
made against him. BY securing Jo-
seph the Federal League has been
able to get right into the public eye
in earnest. and just now the "out-
law" organization has the entire
baseball spotlight turned upon It. II
is said that Tinker has jumped to the
Federal League more through mad
ness than meanness--more to get
even than anything else. During his
one managerial season at Cincinnati
it is said that he had a dogs life.
Between the Herrmanns and the
Fiejschuana IL is declared that Tin
