WERE BEING CARRIED
 AWAY ON ICE FlOES

Little Sturgeon, Wis.,, Feb. I2.- Fifty fishermen, more than half of the male population of this vil- lage, were swept out i'll Lake Michigan, when Il large ice floe on which they were fishing, cracked and hoated away from the shore. All were rescued after terrible suffering.
 Small boats Wrr" manned by boys and after q prrlluuS rlie through ice cakes some of the men were taken ashore. The boats were too small to carry all and some of he others swan to the shore. John Pictirr and Peter Olson remained on the ice all night. They burned their fish nets to keep warm and today reached shore, II miles from their homes.

TYREE BUYS YEARLINGS.
Local Horsenan Also Obtains Serv
ices of Jockey Snyder.

MONTREAL. Quebec, July 26.--J. S.
Tyree, the wealthy Washingtonian, whose
horses were the greatest winners at the
recent meeting at King Edward Park,
was a visitor in Montreal yesterday He
came over from Washington to look over
the horses now being rested up at Blue
Bonnets for the Saratoga campaign and
to purchase the contract on Jockey Harry
Snyder. one of the most promising light
weight riders of America.
W. c. Wagnon, who has campaigned a
string OF horses on the haf-mile circuit
for the past two or three seasons, had
Snyder under contract. and closed the
deal last night with Tyree The terms
were not made public, although it is
known that a good price was received
for the lads papers. The transfer has
been made, and Snyder will join the
Tyree stable after the Hamilton meeting.
J. S. Tyree has recently purchased
eighteen yearlings, selected from the best
American studs, which will be developed
during the fall and faced as two-year-
olds next season. These youngsters will
not be broken until late I'm the fall. after
the Tyree horses have been retired for
the season This stable string is trained
by John j.. McCafferty.

YANKEES AND MAPS
TO TRADE PLAYERS
Cleveland Agrees to Exchange
KahIer and Ryan for
Pitcher Mcconnell.

NEW YORK. July 26-Unless there is
an unexpected hitch in the negotiations
an important deal involving players will
be put through by the Clevelands and
New York Americans, probably today.
Managers Birmingham and Chance got
together yesterday morning and the
terms of the deal were preached
Chance. who is desperately in need Of
Outfield material, asked Birmingham
whom he would give for Pitcher George
Mcconnell. The Cleveland manager who
has been trying to secure Mcconnell for
some time, replied that he would be will
ing to hand over Pitcher kahler and
Outfielder Ryan.
Chance had a long confab later on with
Lajoie. upon whose advice the p. L.
traded Lelivelt and Stump to the Maps
for Peckinpaugh. 1t is understood that
Chance asked Lajoie many things con-
corning Kahler and Ryan. after which
he informed Birmingham that he would
make a final answer today. Ryan has
been with the Clevelands for two years,
and until recently his batting average
was .292. He is a colt with much ex-
perience and plenty of ambition. He is a
long distance thrower and a fast run
ner, and Chance, IL he takes him, will
use him In place of Cree or Daniels.
Kahler is a right-handed pitcher. He
has been drawing salary from the Cleve-
land club for several years. and has been
taking regular turn in the box this sea-
son, with excellent results. He is big.
strong fellow, who can stand lot OF
work. Birmingham admitted last night
that the deal was on, and declared that
If 1t went through both teams would be
strengthened.
/. Mcconnell came here from the Roch-
ester club three years ago. He did not
begin to show major league quality until
last season. however. Early In the pres
ent campaign he was troubled with a
lame arm. which made him practically
useless. During the past six weeks Nc
Connell has shown something Of his old
form, and in yesterdays game against
the Maps he was very effective.
1t is almost certain that as soon as
Chance can see his way clear he will
trade Cree, also Daniels. Neither Of these
outfielders has been hitting up to the re-
ouired standard, and Chance has reached
a point where he believes that something
radical must be done to increase the bat
ting strength of the New Yorks.
Pitcher Watkins. who recently was pur-
chased from the Youngstown, Ohio club,
was sent by Chance to the New London
club of the Eastern Association yester-
dav.

Allis took lead on Gardner at the
second hole yesterday morning. He had
command of the match from the start
Gardner. national champion in 1909, was
wild at times and missed number OF
chances to take advantage of Allis' few
lapSes. The youthful Wisconsnite
though often in trouble. played out with
the calmness of veteran. He owed his
victory to all-round play, as there was
nothing remarkable about his putting, as
was the case Thursday. Both mer
picked up their balls several times In
the afternoon rounds, Allis conceding
two holes and Gardner three.
There was much trouble and ccncedine

He failed to jump in with his niblick

Gardner settled down at the turn In the
afternoon. He played out Handsomely
at the twenty-nnrh, when he got be

was halves, and all Allis had 70 do was
to hold his lead. He vas dorinie a
