Detroit. June 17-The Tigers are rnalk- ing 2 brave fight to overtake the worlds champion Athletics. but if Hughev Jennings entertains the slight est feeling that he is going to. decorate this city with another pennant Connie Mack and his henchrnen beg to differ with Hughey on the question The (tal1 ministerial leader of Philadelphia s celebrated troupe Of performers is not one given over to making predictions, but from no less an authority than Pete Daley. the erstwhiIe Athletic, who is now pasturing for the Yankees, the feeling of the Athletic team is unani- ll1aous that they are going to win the flag again.
 2Daley declares that the Athletics are cocksure that they'll figure in another worlds championship series again The boys. said Daley last night, Itdon't believe there is a team in the league strong enough to beat them out
 As far as they are concerned. they think they've the pennant won already The only thing that causes them com Ecern is how many games they are go- ing to finish ahead of the next best cIub''
 Chances new outhelder also volun- teered the information that Mack isn't
 worried about his pitching staff.
 Prom time to time you hear them say that Plank and Bender are all in. 2 said Daley. Don't pay any attention to that kind of stuff. Those old boys will be there when Connie needs them. Bender isn't himself just now because he has been troubled with tonsiiitis land Plank has been troubled with a sore arm. But Connie has a couple of pitchers who will carry the team along until they get right.
 with that bunch of s1uggers, Mack doesn't need any pitchers Further more, they always get the breaks. don't care what they try they always get away with it. If the Tanks had
 their luck they'd be up in the fight I never saw a luckier team than

 any such thing-wilI pass his thirty
 third milestone today, having been born in Hanover, Ontario, June IT, 1881. Since leaving the ring, to which he occasionally threatens to return for the
 benevolent purpose of wfping all the white hopes off the map, Tommy has
 been engaged in the clothing business
 and real estate operations in Calgary. the Alberta metropolis, and is said to
 have accumulated 3, nice and nutritious fortune. Tommy tried to make Cal gary a great sporting center, but the
 NcCarty-Pelky bout, in which McCar- l ty was Killed, put a damper on his aspirations in that direction. Tom my's real name is Noah Brusso, but
 he still sticks to his ring name for bus mess purposes. While far from being s.shortp financially, Tommy was one of the shortest in stature of the world s
 heavyweight champions. In fact, a
 search of the records falls to reveal any p~ebious heavyweight champ who was as brief as Tommy. who stood five feet seven in his fighting clothes.
 Tom Savers, the English champion wlo,4 nearly three-score years ago, fought John Heenan for the world s title, was called '.the Mfdget.'' but he was five feet eight inches. The Cana
 looked like what he has become-a sue
 messfu1 business man. Tn his pa1my

WATERBURY
 SENDS MORTON TO GLE VEL AND


 Waterbury Ct, June 17-GIly Nor tons Lee Fohls young pitcher. who has been the sensation Of the circuit since the season started, wound up his services in the Eastern association yes terday by bettering his strike-out rec ord and letting New Haven down with one scratch hit at ReidviIle, winning the game by 2 to o.
 Immediately after the game 1t was announced that Morton would be ship ped to Cleveland in order to keep him away from the FederaIs. All last week Bert Maxwell representing the Brook lyn club in the Federal league, fol- lowed the local club around the cir cult to watch Morton work and he was seen talking to the big pitcher in Springfield Saturday.
 While Morton himself said he would not jump, Manager Lee FohI decided to take no chances and Morton will be signed to an American league con- tract without delay in order that that club may be in a position to fight for him in the courts if the Feder should succeed in turing him away from organized ball. The reserve clause: which has been declared H. legal in the court is contained in the contract Morton signed with Water bury; as it is in all minor league com tracts. so 1t is planned to hitch the speed merchant to a, big league docu- ment in order to be on the safe side.

1894.@Bob Fitzsimmons and Joe Choynski fought fve-round draw at Boston Fitz was really the victor, but the interference of the cops in the fifth round saved Choynski from the final punch that would have put him. as the Fsrenchies say. hors de combat. Choynski had the edge in the first rounds, and the second was also in Joe's favor, while in the third chapter a right hand hook to the ear sent Bob down for what looked like a long sleep, The willy Eritz recovered enough to drag himself up before the fatal count. and held Joe of until the gong was sounded. In the fourth round Bob was apparently fully recovered, and he proved 1t by putting over a slam that made Joe take the count of nine- He was no sooner on his pins than Bob knocked him down again. Joe took two more falls before the bell saved him. Tn the fifth Joe was be- ing knocked down repeatedly when the police stopped the slaughter.

BURCH GIVES

 ALL CIPHERS

Springfield, June 17--In one of the fastest and best played games at League park this season the Ponies Play was fast and snappy at all times and the fans came away we'll pleased with the result Burch.s the control artist. was on the stub and pitched a superb game. Blum although batted hard, kept the hits well scattered and air-tight support by his teammates at critical noInents was also a big factor in keeping the score low.
 The game al3ounded in snappy plays of all kinds About the best piece Of fielding of the fray was that pulled off by the enemy in the second inning. It also showed that Manager Jake BouItes of the Bridgeport nine is all ways in the game and using his noodle to good advantage, Bureh was on first base and Good lined to deep right for what looked like a two-bagger. Burch scurried to third and Ha.llman made a heave for that base. Good, seeing the ball sailing in the direction of the dizzy corner, started for second.
 But Commander Jake, also had his eyes open and when he saw Good heading for second he ran in near the pitchers box and cut off the throw. as Burchs easily had third. Bou1tes then started after Good and soon a. game of dodge began. with Good act ing the principal role Burch decided that he might possibly reach the rub Der during this dodgefest, but Stow blocked this move by taking the ball and making after Burch. The local pitcher then became the principal fig ure and after he had trotted up and down the base line for some moments, he was tagged out by Kerns-
 In all six Bridgeport players took part in the swapping It was a fast piece of work on the visitors side.
 The locals scored their first run in the fourth; Groh started with a three base slam to deep right Stankard flied out to Stow, but Hammond sin gIed, scoring Groh. In the sixth Stank ard s lofty belt gave the home team another run. SpringfeId tailed the final run in the eighth innirlg- sCabby singled and advanced on Groll' s bingIe to center. While Stow and Ems were doubling up Cabrera and Stank- ard on the 1atter,s grasser, he went to third Hammond's infield hit to Stow brought him the rest of the way.

GLE ITO PITCH
 AGAINST HARVARD

Cambridge Mass, June 17@The Yale and Harvard baseball teams Jumped over night from New Haven, where Yale yesterday won the first game of the annual series, to Soldiers Fields where they were to face each other in the second contest today. Y ale WAS confident of winning the second game and thus capturing the series but Harvard. remembering other years when an initial defeat was wiped out by successive Crimson victories had strong hopes of a victory, which would necessitate a, third game to decide the years honors.
 Harvard supporters based their optimism on the fact that until yes terday's game the Crimson batsnen have led all other college players in heavy hitting this season. Gile, who allowed Princeton only two hits Satur- day, was regarded as the probable Blue pitching choice. Either Mahan first string pitcher or Whitney, a sec ond team recruit of recent promise was expected to start in the box for the Crimson. The probable batting order:

THE OLD BALL PLAYER.


 Old Hank Stebbins was sitting in the easy-chair which was a part of the little country store that he own ed, when his son came rushing in full of excitement.
 ! Pop he shouted as he waved a baseball bat around his head, i've skinned dem 'Lemonmoran'' guys vida cinch. Why, say, it was just like taking candy away from a baby Talk about your great batting. Jim my Willigan hit the ball so hard that when that spindled-legged gazabo that plays first for the s'Lemonss' tried to catch it it went right through his hand and hit him in the digester, and he almost broke his back trying to double himself into a. knot! And, oh, you ought to see the catch Billy Goebel madei He jump ed about five feet in the air, stuck out his paw, and caught Si Corntassel'., long drive, turned "a. regular circus fiip-hop, and landed safely on his feet! Gee whiz,s but didn't that crowd cheer!"
 Here Hank interrupted his son by solemnly saying:
 Why, William, them plays aiIz.t nothing to the plays us feIIers used to make. Why, I was the champion bat ter of Western Connecticut, and ev- cry time came to bat you could see the feIders get way back near the fence. Why, say, was a regular star! Just let me take that club son.,
 Taking the bat, he grasped it firm ly with both hands, planted his feet like a professional, and then pro- ceeded to show Willie how to bat.
