Reduction to mere three games of New York's National league lead ership marked the Giants to l de- feat by the second-place Pirates in Pittsburg Wednesday.

LUIS FIRPO SAYS. TELL TEX HE WILL
 DO AS HE PLEASES.
Challenger Will Not Heed Richards Order To Start
 Traininu

OMAHA, Neb., August 1.-LulS An gel Firpo, the enterprising South American heavyweight, who has thus far swept all before him in his cur rent American tour, has contract with Tex Rickard to fight Jack Dempsey for the title September IA, but meanwhile Luis Angel is going just as he jolly well pleases.
 The wild bull from Pampas" served notice to this effect on Rick ard Wednesday, in answer to what he said was an order from the big pro- moter to return to New York after his Indianapolis fight August s, and start training for the Dempsey mill forthwith. This order, or whatever, it was-dispatches from New York say it was just a suggestion-is not agreeable to Firpo because he is cleaning up lot of jack, and some experience too, in a string of set ups in various parts of the middle west and the east. Firpo will fight to the last set-up.
 Just tell Tex that" his acting manager, Hugh P. Garland, said, speaking for the challenger.
 Firpo recently intimated that he didn't care to fight Dempsey this year because he wasn't quite ready for a crack at the title. He wanted to learn more about the tactics of American fighters, he said. Richards s message followed this outburst.
 Before returning to New York" Garland said, i've will fight Homer Smith here, August 3, Tom Cowles at St. Louis, August 6, Joe Downey at Indianapolis, August 8. Charley Winert at Philadelphia, August IS and probably at Boston August 20 with an opponent to be selected later"
 Firpo barely avoided meeting Dempsey Wednesday, when it looked as if the champ had given him the slip, for Dempsey had wired friends here that he would arrive at noon and Luis Angel Firpo was at the sta- tion to meet him. Dempsey, how ever had taken an earlier train from Denver and passed through the city at a. m. Firpo was visibly disap- pointed at his failure to meet the man he will fight for the champion ship.
