Latest Best and )Mot Accuate Sporting Ve1ps of he

second on what the umpire said was Coffenbergs out. Burroughs famed and Bauer was safe on Baumgartner's error, the Waterbury third baseman heaving his roller past Shields. Nash CT scored on the error.
 The sixth inning brought more woe to New. Britain. Nixon led off with a sweet three-sacker to left. Fohl landed on second when Davis ran in too far for his fly and Nixon scored. FohI was put out on the next play when he tried to beat his way to third on Smiths grounder to Zeimer, who threw to Moves.
 Neither team showed any life in the seventh. In the eighth the only man to see the paths was McKillan, who was safe when Sullivan bobbled his grounder and who advanced as far as third on putouts.
 Fighting Chance in the Ninth.
 Waterbury was retired in order in the ninth. New Britain had a chance as Sullivan was safe on a bad throw by Baumgartner. Moves sent up, a high one and Robinson purposely let it slip through his hands. Williams picked up the ball and touched sec- ond, retiring Sullivan, who was forced by the play. Moves went to second when zeimer was thrown out at first by Baumgartner. Hancock came up as pinch hitter but was called out on strikes.
 Burroughs pitched a steady game and with the team batting might have won. He was busy boy in the field. having six assists. The most active person in the game was Sulli- van, who accepted seventeen out of eighteen chances.
 The score.

Ritchie May Box Welsh.

Willie Ritchie may box Freddy Welsh in New York city early in June. The lightweight champion intends to play some theatrical dates before coming to this city, but if satisfactory arrangements can be made with local promoters, he would not be averse to cancelling a few weeks in order to box the British champion. Billy Gib- son, matchmaker for the new Stadium A. C.. is hot on the trail of both boys and if they are willing to listen to reason Gibson will soon be in a posi- ton to offer Gothamites a fistic treat
 Gibson is banking on Welsh's ac- ceptance if Ritchie agrees to the bout After everything Freddy's manager has said about Willie and his fear of meeting the English champion it is hardly thought that Welsh will bal!S at the proposition

 New York. May 2.-Funny what a difference few weeks will sometimes make in the plans and demands of 8 boxer. Take the case of Al Mccoy, the latest claimant of the middle weight title Until he landed flush on George Chips jaw. knockingss sKlaus' conquerer cold in less than esround. Mccoy was satisfied to box Any old dub for anything promoters would pay him. But since that tme AIS estimation of the value of his services las taken a sharp upward jump
 Possibly the suddenness of the whole affair has turned Jack Dough- erty's head. The veteran trainer is McCoy's manager, and it is now his boast that he is union" manager and that he wants the union scale for his fighter-whatever that scale may be. Jack was up to see a theatrical friend of mine recently about getting some dates for his boy-it seems the new champion" didn't turn out to be the sensation banked on in his first venture and unless new deal can be arranged it will be a case of having to fight for the money instead of get ting it via. the softer method of stage exhibitions.
 understand Jim Coffroth asked Dougherty for his terms to bring Mc- Coy to the coast to box Billy Murray twenty rounds, and that Jacks de- mands staggered the California pro- moter. Also a Pittsburg matchmaker made Dougherty a liberal offer for a six round return so between Mccoy and Chip, with the same result. How ever, it is thought that Jack will come to his senses before long. He will find promoters are not exactly crazy, and that there is no great demand to see McCoy-just now at any rate. Al will have to show more than he has before taking such a stand. If he would agree to the Murray match no doubt Coffroth would give him a fair guarantee with the privilege of taking q percentage of the receipts, and he ought to get a tidy sum out of it, even i'll defeat, for Murray is a big card out that way where they regard him as the coming champion and the best E,an of his weight since Stanley Ket- chel.
 There is no changing the public r1ind about the McCoy-Chip battle. Nearly everyone who saw it feels that Al was pretty lucky to get that punch over and it is a sure thing Chip would rule favorite in q return bout. Of course the betting would not affect the result of the match and Al might be able to repeat. Dougherty professes confidence and says Al is not afraid of Chip. If he is sincere he ought to give George another chance Chip knocked out Frank Klaus, and repeated six weeks later, proving himself good sport. Mccoy would find that consenting to return bout with Chip would prove an eX- ceedingly popular move.

local fans would willingly contribute the prices it would be necessary to ask for meeting between these two stars of the lightweight division. American sports appreciate that Welch is about the only serious ob- stacle in Ritchie's path, and the sooner the question of American or English lightweight superiority is settled, the better they will be pleased. Naturally they want Ritchie to win, but Welch should come out on top the fans would take their hats off to the clever little Briton. Of course there is that mo decision rul- ing in the way of decisive verdict. but ten rounds ought to be enough to furnish pretty good line on the re- suit of bout over a longer course.
 Ritchie wrote me recently stating that he would like to box in New York within the next few months, and as l know he doesn't believe in playing favorites and is willing to box anyone a promoter who pays his price selects for him there is a splen- did chance of the match being made.
 "Jim's'' Mail Grows Heavy.
 Look the following epistle over carefully, friend reader, and tell me what you think of the rabid individu- al who mailed it to me last week. The gent" claims Sacramento, Cal, as his home. which explains his admiration for Billy Murray:
 Dear Sir: AS a native Californian you ought to boost California fighters more than you do. You are a native son, and ought to boost for other native sons. I read your article in the Enquirer every week and l am surprised that you have so little to gay about Californians. Billy Murray, the best niddleweight fighter siuce Stanley Ketchel is native and yet you haven't had o word in iis faror since he won the championship of the world by beating Jimmy Clabby, which he did although the reieret called it a draw. Clabby was the re- cognized champion and Murray made him pack up ard go to Australia right after the match which prcfef that Clabby would go to the ctacr end of the world to dodge a return fight. I suppose you are like others from California who have left nome and lived in the east-you have Eo

To THE VOTERS Of NYE COUNTY

Responding to what we confidently
believe was an overwhelming public
sentiment for union of the citizen
ship of Nye county, which was OPP
posed TO /. w. Wism and allied ele-
ments, and all that |. w. Wism and
similar elements stand for, we called
meetings OF the Democratic county
central committee and Republican
county central committee to consider
the situation. At such meetings,
which were well attended, ii was
unanimously resolved that It was a
sense of the committees representing
the Democratic and Republican par
ties of Nye county that a union of
all anti.Socialist and anti-l. W. W..
elements be effected along fair and
equitable lines, ands that a committee
of three, including the chairman from
each committee. be appointed TO con-
fer with the other political organiza-
ton for the purpose Of bringing about
such union Accordingly such COM
mittees were appointed, and they i'm
mediately proceeded to the discharge
of their duties, with the result that
the Republican and Democratic par
ties of Nye county agreed to join
forces upon the county ticket, and
that as part of such agreement the
office of sheriff, district attorney
county recorder, justice of the peace
and three assemblymen were to be
filled by persons nominated from the
ranks Of the Democratic party, and
the office OF county clerk, county
treasurer, long and short term com
missoners, constable and two assem-
blymen be filled by persons nomin
ated from the Republican party. l
was also agreed that the respective
political parties should, in all Lawful
and honorable ways, maintain botl
the letter and spirit Of the agreement
by not nominating any candidate 70

litical party to the agreement an
that if nomination was made i

PANSNER'S TRIAL
DRAGGING SLOWLY
THROUGH COURT
EVIDENCE MAINTAINS THE SAME
FACTS WITHOUT ANY
VARIATION.

The Pansner case may drag over
another day. At the opening this
morning the attendance was light,
but at the noon adjournment the
court room was nearly full. The
testimony did not disclose any new
features, being merely a repetition
of what was set forth yesterday
Nick Skoll and w. F. Stefanac were
examined yesterday afternoon. Those
called to the stand this morning were
Paul Coski William Noel and ]. G..
Croft. Their testimony was the same.
Yesterday Thomas +. White was
carried to the witness stand on a
stretcher, which was set where the
witness could be seen. He answered
the questions of District Attorney
Sanders and the defendants lawyer,
! MacNamara, with ease and little ex-
ertion. He said he lived at the Gel
tic boarding and rooming house since
he first came to camp, nine years
ago. When asked his occupation he
replied that he was miner and had
been at that business for over eigh.
teen years. He didn't know Pansner
before he saw him ON the night oil
July II. When he went down town
on that night he had no intention OF
raising rough house" or starting
fight 1t was while he was dowr
} town he met the crowd from hi'
: lodging place and with their influence
got mixed up in the quarrel.
With the bunch he went upstair
and tore down the signs about th'
Celtic and on arriving on the side
walk he saw crowd tearing dow
the blackboard in which the Miners
union posted their notices. He the
+ went into the M. & M. saloon. Whit
: says he wasn't in there three mir
utes. On coming out he said ther
= was a man standing in front of hii
! and called him and his associate
. "scahs." Seized with a spirit {
7 avenging that insult he grabbed th
man. The crowd pushed the con
batants into the Miners Exchane
saloon bar White was barely insid
the door when a man, whom
d identified as Pansner shot him
