Chicago, May 23-From a reliable
source very close to President Co
miskey Of the White Sox it has been
learned that unless his team shows
marked Improvement in the next fort
night or three weeks there will be a
thorough reorganization which will in
clude the resignation Of Manager
Rowland and the sale or exchange of
several players.
The owner of the White Sox, It is
said, believes his men are not deliver
ing the goods of which they are cap
able Although at first inclined to at
tribute their poor showing to a general
slump from which they would recover
if given time, Comiskey has been
forced to admit there are other rea-
sons, chief of which is the lack of fight
ing spirit.
Whether Comiskey has considered
promoting some of his players TO the
management or will seek to infuse the
winning spirit from outside was not
disclosed.

Tom Carey Returns to Chicago From
Coast and Calls on Promoters
of American Derby.

Chicago, May 23.-Tom Carey, mas
ter of Hawthorne, last night gave his
sanction to the proposed Is days con-
vention of the gee-gees on his race
track, beginning July /, under the aus
pices Of an organization of business
men composed chiefly of South Water
street commission merchants.
This means that boss racing really
is to be revived in Chicago, with a new
American Derby" and other ghosts of
better days. Until Carey gave the word
the scheme was nothing more than a
scheme, for on every previous occa-
sion when a similar project was
preached the master of Hawthorne
simply said NO" and that ended it.
Arrangements for the present affair
were made while Carey was out of
town. summing himself in California. A
few days ago he returned to Chicago,
busted into his Office in the Stock EX-
change building, threw his Overcoat on
a chair and demanded: Whats all this
talk about race meet on my track
Then for As hours the South Water
street business men were on the grill.
They had to show Tom. for he knows
the ms and outs of the racing game
better than any man in town. The
cards were placed on the table and
Carey inspected them, one by one. Last
night he announced that the meet
would be held.
They've met every objection | made,
and | advanced a lot of them" he said.
I wanted to be sure that this thing
would be on the square | don't want
any shoo-in races or sure-thing games
played on my property. l don't want
the newspapers of this town giving me
hell as the proprietor of any gambling
game
Il found that the hackers of this
meet are earnest, sincere men, who are
willing to risk lot of money in an eff
fort to convince the public that racing
is possible without betting.
Il told these men that there would
be no racing at Hawthorne unless !
myself could name the officials. They
agreed to that. | am departing for
Louisville tonight to get the best pos
sible men for judges and starter.
Furthermore, throughout the meet
ing, the PinkertOns will be in charge
of the track Billy Pinkerton knows

gregating place for crooks, I'll tell YOU
