BLAMES SAILOR FOR
 ABSOLUTE ACCIDENT

The first explanation of the accident that cost the Resolute the first race for the Americas Cup was told yes- terday by a member of the New York Yacht Club, who had the story direct from an officer on the American de- fender.
 Published accounts said the Reso- lute parted her throat ha1yard, the rope that supports her mainsail, but did not enter into detail. What &C., tually happened was that a sailor on the Resolute, who was ordered to slack off the steel rope when it start ed to rain, let it slip off the winch around which it is coiled.
 The end of the halyard is Ieaded into a steel drum and at least three coils are taken around the drum to secure it. When the order to slack off came the sailor at the winch let it out until only one loop held it. Un- der the tremendous strain the rope worked loose and just after the Reso1ute had rounded the turn well ahead of it's rival her mainsai1 fell to her deck, rendering her helpless.

hams team in the past several days. Walsh has Stauffer and House ready for the league champions though.
 Plans of the Bridgeport Amusement ing shows every Saturday night. This arrangement looks pretty good for there is no place for the fans to go on the night before the holiday. A box ing show should fit in very nicely.
 There are a large number of first base prospects for the big league this year, according to the scouts. Players go in streaks. One season produces it's wealth of infielders, then comes outfielders and this season seems to be first basemen. Rodriguez with Rochester and Frank Brewer, star home run hitter of the International league, seems to be the cream of the | lea gues this season.
 
 Getting down to the Eastern, Ray | Grimes looks like one of the best bets in the league. He can dig them up al around and he can hit them when he wants to. Yesterday he was passed Intentionally twice so the visiting pitchers know what he can do. l
 | Babe Ruth is such an attraction fo1 | the New York Yankees that he pulled | a great many baseball fans out of this | city today for the game this afternoon | against Cleveland. Ruth draws then in every city in the circuit.

Those three ten round bouts at the open air arena tomorrow night should furnish plenty of fireworks. Three of the boys are going to show they are worthy opponents of Louis Bogash and want to be picked by George Dwyer to toe off with the champion.
 George Dwyer says Jimmy Kelly is one of the toughest fighters in the game and Steady Steadman will nave his hands full in keeping away fror the receiving end of their mill
 Last winter the ba seba1l fans were amazed at what Babe Ruth had to say about his salary, but the New York club must be satisfied with him. This is judged from the way the Yam kees are drawing the crowds. With Ruth as the banner attraction, the Yankees have drawn 725,ooo paid ad- missions to the Polo grounds.
 Row Grimes was one of the umplree in the game at Newfield park yester- day. Grimes will report to the Giants next week.

GOLFERS RESENT
 ADMISSION CHARGE

A very serious rent in club fellow ship at the Fox Hills Golf Club on Staten Island may result from the action of some of the committeeman yesterday in charging an aGs-. .ssion for the Vardon and Ray exhibition match. Spectators who ferried over to see Tom Boyd and George Fother- ingham oppose the British pair found the entra nee to the grounds barred by a ticket seller who was purvey.ng admittances to the match at g each Just as the golfers were ready to tee off the gallery was combed with view of getting the fee from any who might have hoped the fence. No war tax was collected, and, according to some, the club officials, in charging an admission for an exhibition, held themselves liable to a collection of the tax. Many of the leading Fox Hills members were emphatic yesterday in denouncing the practice and the crit icisn was loudly expressed.

No definite date or place has been decided upon for the big event but there will be three baseball games featuring the day and one of these will in all likelihood be a con- test between the Bridgeport and New Haven clerks.

JACKSON-TENDLER
 BATTLE A HUMMER

A real, old-time grudge fight was witnessed by 3O0o0 roaring fans in Philadelphia last week, according to all accounts. Just who had the better of the bout is a matter upon which opinions differ considerably, but every one seems to agree that it was some fight-slam, bang from start to finish.
 Both Willie Jackson and Lew Tend Ter, the contestants, are deemed ex- cellent. lightweight championship tim Der, and each of these boys was ex- tremely anxious to eliminate the other and boost his own stock The result was a real fight, with each striving from start to finish to land the elusive k. o. on the jaw of the other. When the bell rung at the end of the eighth round, both fighters, were standing toe to toe, hur1ing wicked rights and 1efts at each other.
 Philadelphia seems to be a unit in awarding first honors to their boy Tender, while New York could only see it's favorite son, Jackson.

UNCOMMON
 IN EARLIER DAYS

t'Shutouts are not uncommon things these days" remarked the old-time sport fan, 'fbut in the old days when sluggers who corkl make Babe Ruth look like crochet hound were mighty common, shutouts were very rare in deed. The first shutout in the history of professional baseball occurred on July g, 1870, when Pitcher Wolters of the old New York Mutuals was the hero of the contest. In this case the Mutuals defeated the Chicago team g to 0, with Pinkham doing the hurling for the losers.' For some time after this the expression ito Chicago" a team came into popular baseball use, meaning to shut out a team.
 .'F'ive years later the first 1 to 0 game was played, and this time it was la team from Chicago-the White |Stockings-which "Chicagoed'' the op- posing nine, a team hailing from St. Louis. It was these same White Stockings who won the first National Lea Sue Dennant.'

BOXERS TOSHOW
 ABILITY TO FANS
 SATURDAY NIGHT
Four of Them On Program Want Chance to Meet
 Louis Bogash Next

Fight followers will have the op- portunity of witnessing what. looks to be one of the best programs yet ar ranged by the Bridgeport Amusement & Athletic Go. at the Arena on State street, tomorrow night, when three ten round bouts will be staged. These have been arranged under the direc- tion of Matchmaker George Dwyer, who knows what the fans want and tries his best~to give them what they are looking for.
 One of the features of tomor- row nights card is that four of the boxers, Steady Steadman, Jimmy Kelly, Red Allen and Bobby Lyons, want chance to show their wares against Louis Bogash, the welter champion of Connecticut. In the case of Red Allen, Red said some time ago that he has given Bogash | if the welterweight leader in this sec ton would give him a chance. In connection with the wishes of these boxers it is interesting to read what Ty Hettinger, who has followed these boys closely, says about their chances: Here's what Ty says:
 Judging from past performances of Steadman and Allen, the latter is more likely to eventually get the oou' eiioil HIS fl'dl. oteduHlan may be the more clever of the two, but he has thus far failed to show a punch which would bother Bogash in the least. Allen, lacking much in the scientific part of the game, yet swings aSMary Ann of deadly power
 which might be more than a little trou blesome.
 Less is known hereabouts of Kelly and Lyons, though both are rated we'll They will have to show some thing to the fans Saturday night be- fore they can be seriously considered as opponents for the local cham pion

and Bonagara were on the paths at the time.
 A hit over first by Ray Grimes sent Bracket home with the first run in that round and when Skiff forced R. Grimes at second, Martin, who walked, went home with the second tally Pitcher House relieved Glynn in the seventh and held the visitors without run, but the damage had been done.
 Features of the game consisted of a fine running catch by Raya Grimes in the second inning when The gob- bled a foul fly over near the right field bleachers sent up by Sweatt Lai made a beauty play on Damer- on's grounder in the second also The hitting of Tamm, who obtained four hits out of four times up, was the chief offensive feature of the af- ternoon.
 Catcher Myers got three hits out o1 ] four times up.

COCHRAN OFFERS BIG
 PURSE FOR BATTLE

Charles B. Cochran, the English promoter, yesterday cabled through his representative, William A. Brady, an offer of fifty thousand pounds for a Jack Dempsey-Georges Carpenter title bout to be held in London dur ing November or December of this year.
 Mir. Brady said that MT. Cochran was ready to post in New York twenty thousand pounds as a guaran- tee that the battle will take place if Dempsey will sign the articles. Coch. ran already has the signature of the Frenchman to an agreement for the contest.
 At recent conference between Carpentier and Jack Kearns, Demp- sey's manager, Kearns refused to al. low the fight to take place in Lon- don, insisting that it be held, if a, ell. in this cnnntry.
