CUTTING AFFRAY

Mr.. L. E. Boiler and Mr.. Hurst, liv
ing between Ocala and Anthony, be
came involved in a dispute late Satur
day afternoon, and the former was
severely cut with a knife about the
body, and the attending physician
thinks that he is very seriously, if not
fatally injured.
We could not ascertain what pro
yoked the trouble between the two
men, except that it was a dispute over
the division of the crops, Mr.. Hurst
having farmed Mr. Boilers land on
shares.
Mr. Hurst and his stepson, Mr.
Simpson, came to town soon after the
unfortunate affair and surrendered
themselves to the sheriff and are in
Jail awaiting Mr.. Boilers condition.

TINKER CALLS OFF
 BROOKLYN DEAL

NEW YORK. Dec. 13.--Harry Herr. man, received a message from Joe Tinker last night saying that he would not play with any club except Chi. cago or Pittsburg. Herman there upon immediately called of bis nego- tiations with Ebbets of the Brooklyn club.
 Up to the time Tinker's wire was received baseball sharps at the Wa dorf- Astoria seemed to think that the Brooklyn club had the best chance to secure the services of Tinker Herr man was considering two offers made to him by President Ebbets of the Dodgers. One was a cash bonus of s20,00O for Tinker outright and the other was a trade involving Zach Wheat and nearly s2O.0OO for Tinker and ooutfelder Bob Beacher of the Reds. Herman had refused all day to accept the s3O,0oo proposition.
 The Cincinnati magnate had re- ceiyed offers from c. W Murphy Of the Ohio. ". r. Baker of the Phillies and Barney Dreyfus of the Pirates. Eut he seemed inclined to consider Brook lyn in preference to the others. Before receiving Tinker's wire he notified Eb, bets that if the Reds could obtain Outfielder Wheat he would be ready to hand over Tinker and Beacher. the Brooklyn cash to buy another player to fll Tinker's shoes.
 Charley HeTzog of the Giants an- nounced tonight that he had received permission of Hampstead to negotiate with Herman for the management of the Reds The Giants are standing pat in the deal for Ed Konetchy. Sec. retary Foster named final terms today to Miller Higgins of the Cardinals but the latter said that he mHss have at least enc more player.
 Murphy of the Cubs with a wink, de- clared that he had offered se2, ,5eo and four players for Tinker. Under the surface Murphy act1ally agreed 70 let Herman have Bremasan,, Bridwell and a pitcher.
 I'll get Tinker after all this hula. bailoo Is over" said the Club owner tonight.

Madrid, Spain, early in the spring for a severe course of training and practice before coming to the State.
 According to announcement made immediately after the polo match 8 of 1913. the American Big Four" consisting of Capt H. P. Whitney Larry Waterbury, Monte Waterbury and Devereaux Milburtn, decided to cease cup defending as a team, but l. is thought that when the battle cry sounds again a majority of the four will be found in the saddle. If it should prove otherwise, however. thei, ponies are at the disposal of the American team which undoubtedly would be selected from among the following players; L. F. Stoddard Malcolm Stevenson, R. La Montague, R. L. Agassiz, T. Hitchcock. P. s. Won Stade, J. E. Cowain, Fcxhall Keene. Opposed to the American combina- ton will be a four chosen in all prob ability from the following English sx perts: Captain Hardres Lloyd, Capt. Grenfell, Capt. Ritson. Capt, Loekett. Capt. Barrett, Capt. Palmer, Capt. Palmer, Chapt Cheape, Capt. Noel Edwards, W. s. Buckmaster.
 Unless there is a most unexpected upset in the Davis cup preliminaries, the tennis menace of 1914 will come from Australia. The semi-official state ment that Norman Brookes, Anthony Wilding, Stanley Doust and A. B.

read that the Brooklyn club holds a franchise to be opened in the borough of Brooklyn, instead of in Greater New York.
 Draft Plan Considered
 The league after hearing the new drafting plan originated by President Ebbets of the Brooklyn club. decided 10 have a copy sent to each club owner in both major leagues and to the president of the National Association of Minor Leagues so that when it comes up at the spring schedule meet ings the club owners can vote with in. telligence.
 The report of the arbitration com mittee which handled the protest of the New York club against paying one quarter of the 1912 worlds series receipt to the league clubs was read and adopted.
 The New York club and the na- tional commission therefore will pay over $26,000 to the leagues treasury to be equally apportioned among the eight clubs, the New York club re- ceiying one-eighth.
 President Tener announced the ap- pointment of a private secretary, Da- vid Leroy Reeves, sporting editor of the Philadelphia Ledger, who was formerly secretary of the Philadel- phia club. Mir. Reeves will assume his new duties at once.

 This was the statement made this afternoon by Harlem Tommy Murphy the great little New Yorker. who was disappointed in his match. with Willie Ritchie last evening. Murphy was sore through and through. and so was his manager, Jim Buckley, who backed up his fighters claim.

 In the meantime, the lightweight champion was undergoing another operation in his room at the Conti- mental Hotel. pr. Mccarthy again probed the abscess in Ritchie's nose and d-ordered him to remain very uqiet.
 'Rfchie's condition cannot be de termined upon for at least two weeks, said Dr. Mccarthy after the operation. T believe that the abscess is the result of some infection of the nose.

PLAN ID SMASH
 MANY RECORDS
Events Scheduled for 1914 In- dicate That International Competition Will Develop Sensational Results


 NEW YORK, Dec 13.-As has been forecast for several months. the com. ing year promises to stand out as record breaking period in information al sport competition with the United States acting as host for a number of cup hunting contestants. Chal- lenges have already been received for the Americas yacht cup and the polo cup. The Davis tennis trophy will have to be defended, and Oxford University has accepted an invita- ton Co enter team at the Univer. sity of Pennsylyanias relay carnival to be held on April 25. These are but the forerunners of other international events yet to be announced. and 1t becomes more eviden. each month that the United States sportsman is going to have an exceedingly busy season defending his various trophies during 1914. Confronting this situa- ton, resume of the invading and defending strength of challenges and opponents is both logical and timely.
 By all odds the most important event of the coming yea1 will be the effort of Sir Thomas Upton to re- gain the Americas cup with his Sham rock ". The new challenger now building at Gosport. is expected to be the last word in English speed yachts and, according to Designer Charles E. Nicholson. will show a sur prising turn of speed and several innovations in the way of build and rig. W. P. Burton, an English amateur yachtsman Of renown, will sail Shamrock " and Albert Turner will. act as captain. Great secrecy is being maintained regarding Lipton's latest yacht. but it is understood that spe- cial thought is being given to the light breezes and rolling swell likely to be encountered on the American course during the autumn days of September.
 The situation from defending standpoint is more complicated, since at least three 73-footers are assured as candidates for the task of de feating Shamrock " The Wander bilt syndicate yacht building at Her reshoffs yard at Bristol, R. l., will he in charge of R. w. Emmons. 2nd., with Chaplain Chris Christiansen aa skipper.
 A. s. Cochrans yacht, to be designed by William Gardner, and built by Lawley & Sons of Boston, will be handled by Captain William Dennis and Capt. Harry HoT. The third yacht. to be financed by New York, Philadelphia and Boston yachtmen, will he designed by George Owen and will be in charge of G M- Pynchon, owner of the racing sloop Istalena.
 While the yachtmen are in the throes of tuning up races. the sixth contest for the International Polo cur will be witnessed, probably at Mead CIV Brook. L. l., and here again the United States is going to have a live ly time defending the cup against the attack Of Lord Ashby St Ledgers s challenging four. As was the case in 1913 unlimited money is at the dis posaI of the chaIlengers and the world is being searched for the fastest polo ponies in order that the English team may not be handicapped by slow or poorly trained mounts. According tc present plans Lord St. Ledger does not intend to leave any thing tc chance. A number of the best Eng fish players and ponies will go to
