RESULTS ON CREASES

Maintaining the fine form shown in
Philadelphia earlier in the week New
York cricketers in the Halifax Cup COM
petition scored their sixth victory on the
grounds OF the Staten Island Cricket and
Tennis Club at Livingston yesterday
when the eleven Of the Philadelphia
Cricket Club. which was defeated at
St Martins on Wednesday, again met
with reverse, this time by the margin of
two wickets.
Philadelphia batted first and put on
the fine total of l73 runs. a score the
home team was barely able to surpass.
When II had been accomplished the New
Workers. still had two wickets in hand,
with J. l. Foyer, who saved the day
for them, not out for 70, tho top score for
the match.
This success enabled New York to keep
pace with the Germantown Cricket Club
the only team able to win from the
metropolitan players, and with which the
return match will be played next Thurs
day at Mannheim.

Ring Precedent Upholds
Ruling in Toledo Bout
Mccoy Choynski and Fitzsimmons-M aher Contests
Parallel Cases-Methods of Selecting Prob
able Winner Discussed
By CHARLES F. MATHIsoN.

The referee of the willard Dempsey
fight in his decision that the visitor
won by knockout in the third round
is sustained by notable precedent and
also by fact The fourth round never
was fought at Toledo and never was
called by the timekeeper. Even had the
bell rang for a fourth round 1t never
would have been contested. The only
way in which Willard could have been
defeated in the fourth round would have
been for him to face his opponent In
that round and either be knocked out
or have the sponge tossed while he was
in action.
The strongest precedent in favor OF
the ruling Is furnished by the Mccoy
Choynski bout at the Broadway A. C.
January ~. 1900. The record contains the
announcement that Mccoy knocked out
Choynski in the fourth round.
The knockout took place after the
bell had ended the fourth round. Choy-
| nski had fioored Mccoy toward the end
OF the fourth round. but the Kid got
on his feet just before the bell sounded.
When ChQynski heard the gong he
! dropped his hands, turned and started
for his corner. Like a fash Mccoy
shot right that caught Choynski be-
| hind the ear and knocked him fiat.
Referee Ignored Claim of Foul.
Choynski was dragged to his corner
and the referee ignored the claim of
| foul made by Choynskfs seconds. The
seconds worked hard over their man.
but when the bell sounded for the fifth
round Choynski's legs doubled under
| him as he attempted to rise and he
fell back helpless in his corner. The
referee declared Mccoy the winner by
knockout in the fourth. and It so appears
| In the records.
A similar case was that OF Maher and
Fitzsimmons in their bout at New Or
leans March 2, 1899. Fitz was ap-
parently knocked out In the second
round, but he recovered and gave Maher
SO severe a beating therea fter that the
perennial champion OF ireland refused
to come out OF his corner for the thir-
tenth round. The records show that
| FitZ won the hSht in the twelfth round
| When Jeffries and Rubin met in San
Francisco November Is, 1901. Rubin re-
ceived a heavy body blow In the nth
round and could not answer the bell for
the sixth. The records declare that he
was knocked out In the nth.
Naturally the bettors who lost money
are disappointed and irritated. but the
facts of pugil!stic history are against
! them.

enty yards away on his drive and yet
scored 3.
Mitchell frittered away chance also
at the very start when he drove with
in few feet of the Swilcan Burn
and then popped tho ball into the trap
much after the fashion of Gil Nichols
at Brae Burn two years ago in the
State championship. Then again at
the next TO last hole, when but eight
feet from the pin in 3, he took no less
than three puts for when
seemed reasonable. To cap the climax
from fifteen feet he took three more
puts at the home hole and tied for
the title with Duncan at 3l2
While this was going on Harry Var
don was striving to uphold the honor
of the Triumv;rate. II was his turn,
as Taylor and Braid had scored in
earlier contests. He played well until
| the fourteenth hole where he topped
his cleek shot second and took 7 for
| the hole. He finished but a stroke be-
hind with 313.
Then came Ted Ray, who OF all play
ers should have won, for he needed
but an 81 to win and an So to tie. What
did he do but literally go to golf1ng
pieces and score an So. Alex Herd was
next with 316. with Taylor at 31S.
! 1t appears. therefore. as II the young
er element with Mitchell and Duncan
as stars Is going to grasp the laurels
from tho brows of the oldtime warriors.
The men are well worthy OF playing
up to the standard set by their prede-
| cessors.
Played Well Here.
Duncan played wonderful golf in this
| country, better than any American pro
has shown over the same length of time
and averaged a trihe under "a for the
76 rounds. which included a double
! round over the very toying Myopia links
with an average Of "a and frac-
| ton.
We read in a contemporary the other
day that no two golfers in the world
could compare with the team OF Brady
| and Hagen. Sentiment there influenced
calm opinion, in our judgment for the
same ratio OF excellence prevails over
a couple when opposed to a slightly
superior duo as in singles matches. al
though we agree that the ratio is, OF
course, less discernible.
Duncan met Brady over the latter's
home course at Wolaston some few
years ago and Brady had II. We
wager even to-day when he is playing
a stronger game. that he would beat
that mark. Yet Duncan. playing on q
| strange course. went round in SO, and
he. too, is better to-day than he was
then.
Hagen and Brady cannot fail but
make their presence felt abroad next
year. but they would do better IL the
matches were to be played at home

ings and an equally fine game, max,
hard propositions for visitors.
Such a trip as is planned for the lead
ing pros by golfers who feel that the
dividing line is close enough for a try
at a decision will beneft immeasurably
all those who make the trip. II will
improve their game TO play over the
best OF the Scottish, English and Irish
links. and golf in competition with the
best OF those lands. Those who would
most properly represent America would
be the golfers who are termed "home-

Picking tho Winner.

The great national indoor and outdoor
pastime for the past three months has
been the making OF predictions as to the
victor in the combat at Toledo between
]. Willard, former heavyweight cham
pion OF the world. and ]. Dempsey, pres
emit possessor of that proud title. The
methods of arriving at conclusion have
been varied and In some cases weird.
Apparently there is ground for the
suspicion that some OF the oracles
reached a decision through the tossing
of a coin, heads Willard wins and tails
Dempsey wins
Pulling straws and drawing numbers
from a hat may also have been utilized
in enabling some OF the seers to pierce
the dark veil of the Queensberry future

ner of the contest,

Spanish Employers
To Lock Out Every
Workman in Land

Madrid, Oct. 26.-The congress Of
Spanish employers. sitting at BARGE
Iona. declared general lockout Of
workmen throughout Spain. The
lockout order will be effective Tues
day, November 4.
The minister of the interior, in
announcing the decision of the con-
gress, said it was an act of provoca-
ton against the workers and EEK
pressed the hope that the employers
would not carry out the measure.
"At moment when the workers
are asking nothing" he added, "the
action of the employers is foolish"
The congress also decided to
make its organization permanent, as
protest against the alleged crimes
of the syndicalists and take steps
looking to the protection of the EN-
ployers, a Barcelona dispatch says.
The employers declare that their &C
ton has been taken as a protest
against The governments failure to
protect the employers interests. The
employers are dissatisfied with the
new social laws granting workers
shorter hours and providing pen
sions.
The government is taking all nee
cssary measures to deal with the
situation. .-..
The governor of Barcelona has
begun negotiations with the employ
ers and workmen, with a view to
preventing the lockout.

BERNARD SHAW
ATTACKS GREY
AS ENVOY HERE
Noted Writer Fears Former
Foreign Minister Of Britain
Will Consider Us Outsiders
and Fall Into Jap Hands.
BY GEORGE BERNARD SHAW.

London, Oct. 26.-Now that Lord
Grey has been sent to the United
States to represent US there, I am
moved by Robert Del's allusion to
me to declare that though l have
called the policy of our foreign Of
fee during Lord Grey's secretary
ship a Machiavellian policy, | do
not regard Lord Grey as a Machia-
velli. heartily wish he were.
l think Mr.. Dell has hit him off
very accurtely, except that when an
English country gentleman is so
supplemented" that he never
knows what he is doing, and can,
therefore, at any moment assure the
country in all honor that he is not
doing it, his simplicity is not of the
kind called holy.
l should not myself have sent
Lord Grey to America, or even,
since our successes in the east, to
Jericho. As an English country
gentleman Lord Grey regards
Americans as outsiders and cars as
insiders. He made that clear in his
dealings with Morgan Shuster. He
may have been right.
But is not the point, which is that
as our relations with America are
extremely delicate just at present,
and likely to become more so, and
as the Americans do not regard
themselves as outsiders POSSIBLY
again quite wrongly, the appoint
ment of Lord Grey is hardly the
masterpiece of tact it has been
hailed as by the British press.
Well Received in Society.
As to what Lord Grey will do in
America, which is, after all, the i'm
portant thing, he will be we'll re-
ceived- in American society. The
part of him will respond
very agreeably to these attentions,
and his speeches will be reassuring
and quite intelligent and pleasant.
And the unconscious part of him
will fall into the hands of whoever
the Japanese equivalent of Isvolsky
may be, and will maneuver for
strangle hold on our most formid-
able rival, now that Germany is dis
posed of. What else is there for
Lord Grey to do. with his official
traditions and his instincts as "a
simple minded country gentleman?
Now, if there is one point more
than another at which the Ameri-
cans rnistrust and dread our old
it is the Japanese point.
The einkreisung is too obvious. You
will never persuade the American
diplomatists that Lord Grey has not
a secret treaty with Japan in his
