CHICAGO, July 90 CR)-Chicago put
over a thrilling tenth inning rally
today to subdue the Giants by to 9
before $4,000 fans, the largest week
day crowd of the season. The at
tendance was boosted by the obserV-
ance of Ladies Day.
The New Yorkers tied the score
in, the eighth and took a one run
lead in the tenth, only to have the
enraged Bruins push over two tallies
int the, last half of the inning
Stephenson singled through Reese
with the bases full to drive in the
deciding run after Adams had diveo
headlong to the plate with the tying
run. Adams bumped into Catcher
Cummings so hard that Cummings
got bloody nose and dropped the
ball. Cummings had to leave the
game.
Stephenson also hit a home run
and a double. The Giants used Ben
ton. Henry and Barnes in the box
while Root relieved Carlson in the
TENTH. and was credited with his 18th
victory of the season. Captain Grimm
of the Cubs was banished from the
game for disputing Umpire Quigley' S
decision on a strike in the ninth.

How They Stand

The Mohawks won another pitching
dual in very good game Of baseball.
Lupe started the game and pitched
five innings to be relieved by Jacks
because his arm got sore. Alvarez
pitched good ball for the Bull Dodgers
but tired in the fifth as this was the
first game of ball he had pitched
in a great while. He was relieved
by Andres but he couldn't get control
of affairs soon enough to save the
game.
Every member of the Cubs team
was working in perfect harmony. The
Wild Cats were going better than
average but couldn't seem to stop the
aggressive batting of the Cubs. Har-
old Warnock umpired strikes and
balls and Frank Shropshire the bases
and everybody was well pleased
Warnock will propably be so much
in demand as an umpire in the near
future that he will have little time
for play with his team. 1t is rumored
that Captain Shropshire is rather
worried over this matter.

RICHARD DENIES
REPORTS FIGHT
Will GO TO N. Y.

CHICAGO, July 29 R-Persistent
reports out of the east that New
York, and not Chicago would get the
Dempsey Tunney fight, for the world S
heavyweight championship in Sep
tembel, kept bobbillg up today while
Tex Rickard hobnohbed with Chi,
cago bankers and newspaper pub
fishers.
Rickard, sent the reports reeling
to the ropes with verbal denials, but
they kept bouncing back, leaving
very much clouded the issue as tI
where the battle ground ultimately
will be.
TITS Chicagos fight, if Chicago
wants it," Rickard said.
Commenting on the announcement
by James A. Farley, chairman of the
New York state athletic commission
that Rickard had promised the COM
mission June 30, that the fight would
be fought in New York and nowhere
else, Rickard said: 'I made no such
promise. Nobody knows where 1 am
going to hold the fight any more
than 1 do, except that I am very
strongly in favor of Chicago"
Rickard went on shipping from
luncheons to conferences while the
disturbing reports, groggyy but never
theless garnely hanging on, con-
tinued to pursue him. Rickard met
the bankers and newspaper publish
ers at luncheon at the ChicasC
club and they placed the stamp Of
approval on the proposal to bring
the Dempsey Tunney fight here

RICHMOND, Va, December 49,
Judge Prentiss of the State Supreme
Court of Appeals today refused to is
sue a temporary order suspending the
Alexandria-A Arlington County anneXa'
ton proceedings, and ruled that appli-
cations for writ of prohibition lied
by Arlington and Fairfax Counties
must await converting of the court on
January 10.
Counsel for the two counties, who
had come here hurriedly last night in
a desperate effort to halt the trial,
returned to the Arlington County
courthouse to prepare for resumption
of the proceedings tomorrow at 10
am. before the special annexation trl-
bunal hearing the case.
In the applications for writ to
stop the proceedings, filed with the
Supreme Court, counsel for the coun-
ties alleged the annexation law OF
1924 is unconstitutional, challenged
the competency of any tribunal APP
pointed hereunder and questioned the
qualifications of the presiding judge,
cuniary interest in the outcome OF
the case.
Temporary Stay Asked.
In filing the formal petitions for q
prohibition writ, the legal representa-
tives of the defendant counties re-
queSted Judge PrentisS to stay the
proceedings until the petitions could
be heard in open court on January ~.
The justice held, however, that such
a request amounted to a writ or pro-
hibition and that it must therefore
be heard by the whole court In reg
ular session.

Notice of the intention to apply
for the writ previously had been
served on the annexation tribunal,
which consists of Judge Brent, as
presiding judge; Judge Don p. Hal
sey of Lynchburg, and Judge Fred
erick Coleman of Fredericksburg.
The claim of personal interest in the
case is directed only against Judge
Brent. and is based on his residence
in Alexandria and his financial con-
nections there.
The papers question the constitu-
tionality of the act Of 1924, provid-
ing for appointment by the governor
of special tripartite courts for the
hearing of territorial annexation
suits. 1t was under this act that
Gov. Byrd designated Judges Halsey
and Coleman to sit with Judge Brent
in the Arlington County Court for
the hearing of the annexation suit
filed by Alexandria against the coun-
ties. The counties charge that this
act is contrary to the Virginia con-
stitution in that it attempts to
create new courts and tends to strip
the regular circuit court of it's full
powers.
Judge Brent's qualification to serve
in the proceedings is challenged on
the grounds that he acted as chief
