bled National and American league Of

men as they unfolded their tale of woe
they looked at each other in surprise
An official of organized baseball
said; They estimate that the Federal
league lost 100000 in this venture.
| tell you that $450O.0OO or 100000
would be nearer the mark 1t was the
biggest piece of folly | ever heard of
to imagine that any baseball league
could live and pay the players such
salaries"
1t is estimated that more than sew
enty-fve of the ball players whom the
Federal league enticed away from or
ganized ball with the big offer Of
money received more than twice as
much as they received with organized
ball. This item alone would represent
an annual expenditure of $225,0OO.
1t can readily be seen now why the
big issue in the peace negotiations is
the seventy or more players whom the
Federal league has under iron bound
contracts at these inflated salaries
Organized baseball has told the Fed
eral league club owners that they can
not hope TO pay these salaries. even
If they take the players back It is
believed that the compromise wifi be
effected by organized ball paying the
greater part of the salaries TO the
players they take, while the Federal
league must make up the balance.

The question asked most in pugilis-

ever champion of the world?" This
has been answered in the affirmative
as well as the negative, noted critics
disagreeing as to whether or not Sui
Ivan really held the title Tom An
drews of Milwaukee, a well-known
sporting authority, declares Sullivan
was in reality the champion. An
drews burrowed into ancient pugilistic
history and unearthed the following
facts to uphold him in his contention:
In 1869 Tom Allen, heavyweight
champion of England and Mike Nc
CoOle, an American, fought for the
worlds championship near St. Louis
and McCoole won on a foul in the
ninth round In 1873 Allen and Nc
Coole staged another batrle and on
that occasion Allen was the victor
That victory restored the champion
ship TO him.
Late in 1873 Joe Goss of England
came to America and fought Allen
nea Covington, Ky. Goss won on a
foul in the twenty-seventh round. In
1880 Paddy Ryan fought Goss at Col
Her, w. Va, and won the decision in
the eightyseventh round. February
Z, 1882, John L. Sullivan met Ryan at
Mississippi City for $4,000 a side and
Knocked out Ryan in the ninth
round
Goss beat Allen, Ryan beat Goss.

shouldn't Sullivan be looked upon as
the worlds champion after his victory
over Ryan? asks Andrews.
