ROBERTSON'S
 HITTING WINS
 FOR NEW YORK

Dave Robertson, the Mobile recruit, who has been referred to as another TSy- Cof5b, Increased his popularity with the fans at the Polo Grounds yesterday 1by producing a slashing sin gle in the ninth inning that ended a pretty pitchers battle between Chr1sty 16iatteuson, the Old Master. and Leon K Ames, Of the ''hard luck Tame The sinEde-a terrific drive over sec ond Rase-scored Arthur Fletcher from third base and gave the Giants a victory, a clean sweep of the series over Charles Lincoln HerzoEs Reds The score was 3 to 2.
 Ana this was not the only damage .xIae votngBter did to the Reds during 4fe afternoon The Giants were trail ing by two runs in the fifth 111n1z1es and with Ames going at top speed It didn't look any too good for the Giants. Up to the fifth session Leon had held the National League cham pfons to only one hit
 Anes got Meck1e out of the way 1n the fifth, Fred hitting a long fly to A11ler in left field. Then up stepped Robertson, and the Mobile younsster rlfarnned a clean hit to right and rested on first base.

MORAN
 TO DEFEAT
 JACK JOHNSON

William Gibson, leading promoter or boxing clubs, picks Frank Moran, the Pittsburgh white hope, to beat Jack Johnson. when they meet in a twenty round fight in Paris, France, next Sat urday night. Gibson bases his opin- ion on Johnson's physical condition He has received private information from Paris that the negro has taken On a lot of weight but may not possess the strength and stamina that enabled him to whip JeEr1es at Reno.
 There Is no betting on the fight nere,'' said Gibson yesterday fbft I learn that Johnson is a 10 to 4 9avorite in Paris. If I could spare the time to cross the ocean would have a. big bet on Moran simply as a good gam bling proposition. never have be- lteved that in a. heavyweight light odds of 2 to 1 or better should be allowed to go begging.
 Over here we cannot learn the ne- gro's true condition, except from hear say. But the fact that he hasn't had a real fight since the Rene affair and probably has been enjoying high life makes 1t doubtful if he will be the same Johnson. If he is as fit as when he beat Jeffries, Moran wiIl have a hard time of 1t. But honestly, think Moran will turn the trick, also the fight will be on the level.
 If Moran had a little more brute strength he'd win by a knockout. be- cause he would be able to stand the pulling and hauling tactics Of the ne gro until the latter became tired But don't forget that Moran can punch EIe proved it when he stopped Fa1zer. He also shapes up on an even plane with Gunlooat Smith, who got a hairiine de- cision over him in twenty rounds ou the coast.
 T think that Sam Langford and 1Eor- an would make an even fight. and you know very well that Johnson has re- peated1y refused to meet Langford. Moran Is white and that is one reason why we are all pulling for him. Hc is also a credit to the boxing game He is a clean living. well educated honest fellow, who must receive credit for taking this big chance Moran has never taken part in a falre, and he is going up against the. negro to win if he can.
 Moran has plenty of gray matter and nerve If he doesn't become rat tied or excited during the nrgt eWo or three rounds think he will prove the most dangerous white man Johnson has ever met. If he can land one or two heavy blows in the negro's stonl- ach there may be a big surprise in Store for the spectators. hope Car pentier will referee, for that means a square deal for the white man. Maybe Carpenter will not allow Johnson to hold Moran's arms, which iB a clear violation of the rllle&H

Washington, June 2s-The house was expected to decide today whether the ba-tt1eships Mississippi and Idaho shall be sold to Greece. The question Of the sale of these war vessels was to come up in the house on a senate amendment to the naval appropr1a- ton bill
 Despite the protest of the Turkish government against the sale of the ships to Greece, it was believed that the deal would be authorized

run for President on some platform or
other. Roosevelt will never lead fusion
of the Progressives and Republicans The
old line Republicans will never accept
him.
IL never talk on the subject of woman
suffrage Mrs. Marshall is opposed to it
that settles me on the question
Business conditions are good. There Ia
good feeling everywhere. Everybody, am
sure, trusts the President"
