DAHLEN DARINGi BASE
 RUNNER, EVERS SAYS

In all my years of ball playing" said Johnny Evers recently, the man I found it hardest to touch with the ball as he came down to second base from first was Bill DahIen.
 Dahlen always came straight down the base line, directly at the base, but in the last 10 feeet of the distance there was no telling what he would do.
 He had a great way of anticipat- ing where the throw from the catcher was coming and he played his side to a nicety.
 Coming straight along he suddenly would fall down on his hips, to one side or the other, spread his legs, and then use the greatest cIeverness in pulling out of reach and twisting himself to hook the base with either foot
 se4There are other men whom I have found 1t difficult to tag at second, and among them are Lobert, Herzog, Bescher. Byrne, Magee, Miller, Hug gins and wagner"

DECKER FOR l. NEWARK CLUB
 FALLS THROUGH

New York, April 2@That dfcker for the sale of the Newark Interna- tionaI League club is taking on the general appearance of the famous Yankee deal.
 It looks as if the Esbbets- s-McKeever interests will continue to hold their own all along the line, for it was whispered last night that the dicker had fallen through
 It is understood that certain folk in Newark with good backing were wiling to take over the club for a year, with the option of purch asing at the end of that period. They were to assume all financial respon- sfbdIity for the season, buying an op- ton on 469 shares of stock out of a total of 700.
 The Newark men were to organize a trust company. Ebbets was said to favor the plan. of giving over the club for the season and taking Q chance on selling out at the end of the year, but the McKeeverS were opposed to it. If they cannot sell the club out right. they would rather go through another season and if necessary, drop another S3O,o00.
 No matter who owns the club it's going to have Newark men at the helm, for Newark will stand for nc others from now on. Charlie Eb- bets, Jr., it was reported. is through with the secretaryship. Silent John HummeI will no doubt be made man ager within a, few days and the work 0f gathering ball team will be start ed, with Superba cast-offs as a nu- cleus.

CUBS BEAT
 YANKEES IN
 EASY MANNER

SaRannah. Ga.as April 2--Bn1 Dono- van was forced to watch his Yankees lose their first game of the spring season here yesterday. when the Chi cago Cubs handed the New York boys a sturdy facing. shutting them out by a score of to o.
 Roger Bresnahan, the new Cub manager, said his. team had wonder ful weather in Tampa. Fla, and was ready to start the season. Roger s said his team was one of the finest trained clubs he had ever been asso- ciated with. and the Cubs proved ev- erything that Roger said about them toS be the truth.
 The pitching. displayed by the Cubs was of a far more effective standard than, the service of the Savannah and Brooklyn pitchers, as the Yan- kees were let down today with five singles.
 Jim Lavender, Chicago's veteran moist ball pitcher, was very strong in the first five innings, and only one Yaukee reached second base while
 he was pitching. However, the New York boys should have scored a bunch of runs on Karl Adams, a colt pitch CT. who completed the game.

YALE BEATEN IN
 FIRST CONTEST BY GEORGETOWN TEAM

Washington, D. C.. April 1-George- town won an exciting game from Yale here yesterday afternoon, 8 to 6. A volIey of hits mixed in with three passes gave the sBlue and Gray six runs in the second session, a lead which Yale found impossible to over come Both teams hit the ball hard and for long distances. The longest swat was a terrific three-b -bagger over the centre delder's head by Reilly of Yale in the sixth inning, when the Blue scored two runs.
 Yale opened the ninth. with the score standing toN4 and made a. strong bid to even up the count. Vaughn led off with a single and Haggerty got rat tied, walking Bush and hitting the next two men. Thompson relieved him at this stage, and after striking out Milburn walked Hanes, forcing in a run The next man hit to short field and was retired easily.

power to drive Champion Fred Welsh in a 24-foot ring with his million dolIar'' protege.
 If nothing else. Scotty likes to get the old-dough for Johnny. And he is wonder at digging up sangels" to offer big purses.
 Montieth is sincere when he says he will get $15,0OO for Welsh tO box Dundee. He will post $6,0O0 inside of ten days as a guarantee that he means business. And then:
 Vincent Reina, Of the Italian Epiy- eraide A. c. of New Haven. will guar antee Welsh S1O,O0o for his end for tventy-reuud decision bout at New Haven on July B. declares Montieth. esHe might be induced to increase that amount to $1 1000, but in case he can't see his way clear to do it will let my $6,O0e go to make up the amount demanded by Pollock Here Is Reina's letter, in which he asks me to do my best to get Eitchie or Welsh. He offers Ritchie $6.0oO for a twenty-round bout. put the proposition up to R1tchie and he wanted to know why h0 should be asked to go twenty rounds when he can get s5, for boxing ten rounds
 A twenty-round bout between welsh and Dundee would draw close to &10.OO0, so I don't feel a bit alarm ed over rfsking $6,00O of my own naohey to make up Welsh's guarantee I know Dundee can whip Welsh in a tzTenty-round bout. Two years ago he fought Freddie tn rounds in New Orleans. It was six months be- fore Welsh won the championship and he was at his very best. Well, Johnny hit him on the jaw with a trtght in the seventh round and MT. welsh had the time of his life keep l ing on his feet"
 Harry Pollock, We1sh's manager. is ready to close the deal He said so I early today Welsh got back home the other night.

CUBANS RIOT WHEN JOHNSON

Havana, April "A riot occurred in the Stadium yesterday because Jack Johnson refused. to work out in d downpour of rain! A crowd of 400 had gathered to see the cham pion go through his stunts, and when it was announced that Johnson would not train outside, but would do his work in the gymnasium, the crowd demanded the return of the adnis- sion prica
 The management refused to part with this money, but offered to give out rain checks entitling the holders to admission today.
 This angered thee rowd. Missiles were hurled around and the seats and nearly everything portable in the place were torn up. The gate had nearly been torn off it's hinges when riot call was sounded, and the Cuban police put a nasty stop to the disturbance.
 Johnson didn't do any work yes- terday morning, and spent the ma jor portion of the afternoon at the race-track. where, questioned. he said:

PRATT, FORMERLY OF SPRINGFIELD, WILL BE
 SENT TO PROVIDENCE

Hot Springs, Ark. April 2.-Although neither President Lannin nor Manager Carrigan of the Red Sox has given the slightest hint in regard to the pitchers who will be dropped from the Boston club roster, the impression is going the rounds that Cooper and Comstoclz, taken from the Grays at. the close of the last International league season, vii be the first to draw releases.
 Even if they are thrown into the Sox discard, 1t is by no means certain that they will be farmed to the Providence club. Both have shown high-class pitching ability in the past, their rec ords being well known to major league club managers, and some trouble might be experienced in getting them safely over the waiver route.
 Then again, Comstock is high sal aried artist, and President Lannin might be able to dispose of him to some club in the American association in the event that he was not held up by major league manager. Pratt, Gill and shorten also are to be sent to Providence if they can run the waiver gauntlet.
 Pratt was with Springfield, Mass, last year.

Saturday and final roadwork on Sun
 Unless the odds drop to to 2, it appears as if there will be little real money wageredl on this fight; in fact, less than has been bet on any heavy weight championship battle in his tory.
 Wi1Iard's supporters claim that the big cowboys youth, superior height, weight and reach will offset John sons advantages of experience and superior boxing ability.i They point with pridei to Willafd's punch, which they say is the most powerful in the world.
 What keeps the Wi1lardites from betting without getting long odds is the fact that Willard has not what is known as the lighting heart.' He isn't a natural fighter, but just, a good-natured giant. This time, Will lard says, he will exhibit no mercy, but will tear right into Johnson.
 Johnson's supporters assert in loud tones that. the negro's greater expe- rtence, masterfuI boxing, agility, ring generalship and powerful, punches Twill win for the black, but they want better. odds than are offered.
 The ticket sales are increasing, but so far there is no scramble for the higher priced seats There is a, fair promoters are depending onI the in coming Americans to buy up the more expensive tickets.
 Johnson offered to bet $20, ,o0O tc $1 5, 1000 that he would defeat Willard He declared that the offer was open to anyone, but refused to accept any longer odds. f
