CHANGES AMONG
 BIG LEAGUE MANAGERS

With the finish of the 1913 pennant races in sight, the magnates of the big league clubs are already planning for another years campaign. The ef- forts to strengthen various teams in both the National and American leagues go on apace, accompanied by the usual reports of trades, shake-u ups and managerial changes Dame Rumor can always find ready listeners in the baseball world, and almost every club except the flag-winning combin tions comes in for share of her attention
 Among those mana gers who are re- ported to find the balancing of the field directors crown a nerve-ra cking feat are Evers, of the Chicago Nationals; Callahan, of the Chicago White Sox; Carrigan, of the Boston Red Sox; Dah- len, of the Brooklyn Nationals; Stovan of the St. Louis Browns, and Tinker of the Cincinnati club
 In several cases successors for the present managers have been tenta- lively named by underground gossip. Bresnahan is said to be in line for Evers' position, Sta11 named for Calla- hans. place. and George McBride slated to fill Carrigan's shoes. Lord and Chase are also said to be willing to help Comiskey in the task of uplifting the White Sox. Apparently, John Mo Graw and Connie Mack are the only managers who appear to be sure of tn cir positions at this time, if rumors are to be believed.

AL PALzER AND MORAN WILL CLASH
Prominent Heavyweights To Box
 in New York Ring Tonight

Al Pa1zer, the Iowa giant and Frank Moran of Pittsburgh, two of the leading contenders for the white heavyweight championship, will come together tonight at the St. Nicholas Rink, New York, in a bout that will mean a match for the winner with Gunboat Smith. From the rival train ing camps at Saratoga and Woodlawn came reports yesterday that both men were as fit as long and steady train ing could make them, and there seems to be no lack of confidence on either side.
 a Palzer has not boxed in more than a year, while Moran, only four months ago, showed better than ever before in a ten-round contest with the late Luther McCarty. Palzer will greatly excel Moran from a physical stand point, but he lacks the cIeVerness and ring knowledge of the Pittsburgher. Both men are noted for great stamina and punching powera and each is of the aggressive type of boxer

ERRORS PRESENT
 GAME TO HARTFORD
(Hartford Courant.)

Tn a game filled with spectacular plays by both teams, Hartford defeat ed Bridgeport, 4 to 3, yesterday atter- noon on the Wethersfield avenue grounds Although outhit by their opponents Hartford played the better
 fielding game while errors by the v1s1- tors gave the Senators two of their runs which enabled them to land the victory.
 Things went good for the home team in the next frame. Hoey flied out, but Curry singled to right and stole second a, moment later. Kel1her then took the count of three, for the only strike out that Blum had to his credit. With two down Gardella hit a fly to Bowman. who dropped it. In the meantime Curry was tearing around the bags, and as he neared the home plate Bowman made an ele- gant throw to catch him, but Mona
 han dropped the sphere and Curry was safe with the first run of the game Catcher Monahan then threw wild over third to catch Gardel1a and the latter scored on the peg of his opponent.
 The Senators got to work in the ' next inning and got another tally ! which was presented to them by l Dame Fortune" Morley singled for his second hit of the game and he
 was advanced to second by Hoffman s
 sacrifice hit to Bowman. Kaun then
 hit a. high fly near the bleachers, but Bob bic Stow captured it after a long | chase. Jack Hoey hit a, liner to Stow
 who picked it up in fine style. but
 Russell dropped the throw, Morley 1 scoring. Curry retired the side by a I grounder to Blum and he was an easy | out at first.
 L Clarkin's band scored their last run | in the fifth inning, but that run was | enough to give them the game. Reiger l doubled to left and reached third on 1 N4or1ey's hard liner to Russell, who | threw the ball to Bowman just in 1 time to catch him. Hoffman then hit l a high fly to Silzer in center. Silzer
 made a fine throw, but it hit a, few l -ards in front Of the plate 55undin $ 1 high over Monahan's head, while Rie- l ger raced home. Kauff then hit to | Russell in back of first and both | started on the dead run for the ba ag
 and both slid together, Russell getting l the decision.
 Hartford did not have an oppor- 1 tunity to score again until the seventh | inning, but fine work on the part of | the visiting players inf1eld robbed 1 them Of a, possible run. Muldoon hit l to Boultes and he was an easy out at l first but Pitcher Rieger hit to deep l left for his second double of the game.

M'GRAW HIDING
 SIGNS FROM MACK
Has Fence Built Around Giants
 Bench At Polo Grounds

There was much comment by fans on the fact that a wooden extension o1 the north end of the Giants dugout al the Polo Grounds has been put in place. hiding the Harlem heroes from the gaze of those in the grand stand and also from the players in the op- position dugout.
 In some quarters 1t was held the ex- tension was put there to shield the players from the fall draughts, and others suggested it was done to hide the Giants from the eagle-eyed scru- tiny Of those in the press row.
 But they were wrong. It was merely strategicaI move on the part of Mo Graw to cfrcumvent the prying Corne- Illus McGf1licuddy during the approach ing Worlds Series.

The invasion of the Queensbury in- dustry by the Yellow Peril was check ed at the Atlantic Garden A. C., New York, Hast night, when Benny Leonard of Harlem gave An. Chung so thorough n beating that Referee Billy Moore stopped the bout in the sixth round. Most remarkable of all was the fact that LeonaTd beat the young Oolong scrapper with one hand.
 Leonard swung his right early in the first round and hit the Chinaman on tbs head. After that Leonard beat his nan with his left hand. After Leonard had banged An Chung about for two rounds the Chinaman covered up till the crowd called him the Chinese Leach Croes.''
 An Chung was in a shaky condition at the end of the fifth. and Leonard went at his man furiouSly in the sixth. The Chinaman was on the verge of a knockout when the referee interfered.

MIR. LYNCH RULES
 AGAINST NEW YORK
Leagues Executive Declares Um-
 pire Erred In Forfeiting Game
 To The Giants - Victory For Philadelphia

Referring to the decision Aof Umpire William Brennan, Thomas J. Lynch, president of the National League, an nounced yesterday that the game of Saturday, August 30, between the New York and Philadelphia clubs will count as victory for the Philadelphia team. Brennan awarded the contest to the Giants by a to score when the Philadelphia management failed to clear a section of the ,bIeachers back that the moving spectators were a handicap to the New York batAnen. The decision nearly precipitated a, riot. and the players of the New York club called for police protection on their way to the. railroad station.
 MT. Lynch in his decision states that Brennan exceeded his authority in de- claring the game forfeited to the New York club and formally awards it to the Philadelphia team by a score of 8 to 6, which was the score by which the Phillies led in the ninth inning when the game was stopped. The de- cision of the league executive reads:
 'In all cases where protest is lodg- ed against the result of a champion ship game the unpire's statement of ever umpire in making a decision is supported by the rules of the game I will back him to the limit. The off, cia1 report of Umpire Brennan cov- ef1nS the game IOE101IGQ CO New 4OEh in Philadelphia shows that neither club had complained of existing con ditions regarding the spectators, and that the umpire plainly went beyond his authority in declaring a forfeiture, for which action he had neither the protection of the regular playing rules nor of any special ground rule. The umpire was clearly at fault in not having the game played to a. finish.
 'tAs MT. Brennan's ruling is without precedent, I waive all technical pro- cedure in ruling on this protest, in order that a prompt disposition of the affair may be had and the best inter ests of the game may be served. Act ing solely on Umpire Brennan's state ment, I am compelled to set aside his decision forfeiting this game to New York by to 0. The game will be counted in the records for Philade1- phia by 8. runs to 6, this being the score when said game was stopped in the ninth inning through error of the umpire."

MANY ASPIRANTS FOR
 NATIONAL GOLF TITLE

Garden City, N. r., Sept. 3-The big field of aspirants for National golf championship honors was reduced, to- day, to 16 players, representing clubs in the south, middle west, New Eng land, Maryland and New York. The first of the match play rounds at 36 holes began early at the Garden City Clubs links. The weather continued ideal.
 The match most talked of was that between Jerome D. Travers, the title holder, and Francis Ouimet, the young amateur champion Of Massachusetts. TraVers has not been playing any where near the top of his game since the tourney began. Ouimet has shown some very fine golf since he came here and was beaten only three strokes by Evans, the gold medal winner, yester-
