Tigers Were in Much Better Shape and Piled Up an Even Dozen Tallies.

COLTS SHOW UP WELL 'Allemang Escaped Without a Run Carr, Dickev and Ortlieb Plav Well. Fellowlrg so clo.dy after a hard winter, terrific rains and disastrous flood it Fccmed like a dream to sit at Washington Park yesterday afternoon and witness a baseball game between the candidates for positions c.a the Indianapolis team and the Detroit American League team. It was the third day that the Hoosiers had donned their uniforms and the work of most of the youngsters showed that they will have to buckle down to hard practice in order to get into good 'playing condition within the next ten days. Detroit was In better shape because the team has had the advantage of a few weeks training in the South during which the winter kinks were worked out. After nine innings of interesting ball for so early in the season, Detroit trotted off the field with a victory by a score of 12 to 6. Eareball fans were given an opportunity in the fifth Inning to awaken from their six months' slumber when the Hoosiers sent five men around the circuit, the result of a combination of bunts and the very generous gifts of Pitcher Streit. The quintet of talHes placed the fans in a good humor, and although the visitors had a big lead at the ktlme, the scoring made the spectators baseball hungry, and it is quite pafe to aiert that their appetites will not be appeased, until the coming championship season is completed. Detroit's victory was largely the result of the effective manner in which the Tigers did business with the delivery of Foulkes in the fourth Inning, the tirst inning that the young southpaw was on the slab for the Hoosier eolts. The Tigers opened on bis curves and three doubles and four singles gave them a bunch of five tallies. Foulkes. did better during his remaining two innings, and the Tigers did not score. They seemed to be resting to take the measure of Dunbar's delivery, which they did in the seventh and ninth innings. Dunbar is a graduate of Spring Lake l'ark, out on the Greenfield line, and while he was piKnetl to be given a try-out with the twirling staff, he told Manager Phillips confidentially' that he was a letter third baseman than a t wirier. Killian did mound duty for Detroit during the first six innings, and it was not until the sixth that the Filipinos" succeeded In chalking up a tally. Three singles did the work in that inning. Streit was sent to the slab in the seventh and five were added by the Hoosiers. Marshall beat out. a bunt, and when Powell bunted Streit made a wild throw to second. Ortlieb bunted and tilled the bases. Streit passed Carr and Lindsay, forcing in Marshall and Powell. Hess's single sent Ortlieb and Carr across the rubber. Hess stole recond. Lindsay scoring on Buelow's wild throw.; Biery and Strader were easy outs. In the seventh and eighth the Hoosiers could do nothing with Streit. Detroffs runs in the fourth were the result of a cluster of hits, but errors by Biery and Strader helped the visitors in the seventh. In the ninth Crawford started by lifting the ball over- right-field fence for a home run. Hess's wild throw, a passed ball. Donovan's two-bagger and another wild throw by Hess gave the visitors three in the ninth. While Detroit was In much better shape. than the local lads, vet Manaeer Harrows cnpiiiTTi jusi at this time. First Baseman Carr is not with the Detroit team, having been sent home with a broken nose. Gilroy has a badly bruised wrist, and McManus is suffering a very sore linger on his throwing hand. Durham Is not in good shape, and it. Is claimed that Crawford Is suffering from ä bruised elbow, but his batting yesterday would not indicate that he is in very bad shape. LINE ON THE, YOUNGSTERS. Interest In the contest centered in the work of the young men who are trying lor places on tne Indianapolis team. Magoon was not In the game because of a slight Illness, and Lindsay was sent to second. He had four chances and accepted them cleanly. Carr's work at third showed that he will make good with the fans, while Hcis played a good .game at short. Had Hess beeh properly supported at first base, his error column might have contained a cipher at the conclusion of the game. Jle is Just a trifle too heavy to play fast ball now. but he says he is rapidly getting into playing form. Dickey was at tirst for four innings, and his work impressed the crowd. Biery succeeded Dickey and let a couple of bad throws get away from-him. Stnrder had a poor day in center, nid and also at the bat. The tans fear that he is not strong enough for the team, but are willing to give him a fair trial before passing final judgment. Marshall had nothing to do in right, but he showed that he U somewhat of a bunter by beating out two inrield chances. Powell's work in left shows that he might develop into a first-class man. The fans were well pleased with the work of Ortlieb, who did all of the backstop work. Ortjelb threw well to second and cut ofT three runners who attempted to steal. -Allemang pitched the first three innings, and only one scratch hit was made off him.- His arm is in good shape, and. imi tht MrfcTÄi nttf r Vä will 4. , ww a y ' fr- f' vav. v HV ill Ail gUtiU (condition in a few days. Foulkes pitched the-next three innings, and. notwithstanding that he was batted all over the lot during his first inning, he escaped the last two without a run against him. Dunbar did the twirling in the last three sessions. The core: Indianapolis. A.B. R. II. O. A. E.

Last Night's Scores. Bichmond, 8; Indianapolis, 3. Marion, 9; Elwood, 4. Games To-night. Kokomo at Lafayette. Until near the close of the second period in last night's game with Richmond it looked as though the Indians would stop the pennant march of the Quaker quintet, but the visitors won by a score of 8 to 5. The home club was strengthened by exCaptain Farrell, of the Muncie team. Farrell played a magnificent game. The pace of the Indians was too fast and they slowed down perceptibly in the final min-: utes of play in the second inning, while Bannon, the local captain, played with a don't-care-whether-school-keeps-or-not spirit and allowed the Bichmond team to hang three1 tallies in slightly over one minute of play. This was the start of the balloon ascension of the Indians' defense, as the third score was sufficient to even up the count, and Richmond scored three more in the third period while Bannon's men were unable to tally, although the rushers and center worked hard. O'Hara has a very excellent excuse for plajing a poor game in the third period. Hl.s ankle is still la bad shape and every moment of play was torture for the plucky Indian half back. In the' first period he played the polo that has won him a lasting home in the hearts of the Indianapolis fans and in, the second he was relieved by Coggshall. Both Doherty and Jessup played dirty polo again last n!ght. the. latter being penalized once by Referee Waller where several black marks would not have been enough. Bone was lightning fast and his shots for the cage went true to the mark. Cunningham, jr., played the game that put the elder Cunningham on the bench in face of the fact that he scored but two of Richmond's eight markers. Both clubs heard the gentle ring of horseshoes. Two of Richmond's tallies were nukes pure and simple, while the local quintet scored one, this being the first ball driven home by Farrell in ten seconds of play in the first period. The first counter was scored by Farrell In ten seconds, the ball glancing off Mansfield's shin protectors. Mansfield hung the second, the ball carromlng gently from O'llara'3 skate and rolling into the Indian cage, while Bannon was engrossed in counting the spectators. Warner then hooked one of Farrell's drives in 5:55, and the first inning closed with Indianapolis one ahead. Bone shot one through Coggshall's lower extremities for the first tally of the second period, tying the score. Pierce then rustled the Quaker draperies by giving Jessup two stops on short drives and scoring on a short scoop. Pierce scored again, this time in 1:42. catching a rebound from Ferreira club. Coggsnall scored his only mar.:er . after taking the sphere through the Quaker defense and counting on a short drive from the center. Then the skyrocketing began. .Cunningham scored for Richmond on a pass from Bone in twelve seconds. Bone then hung one of the greatest tallies ever seen in the local ring. He won the rush and scored in :04, after hurdling the opposing defense. Mansfield hung the third tally during the airship ride in one minute, taking a pass from Cunningham. Bannon's work had assumed a tinted hue by this time and he allowed Cunningham to count while he was engaged in watching for a shot from another direction. Bono put the ball into the nets behind Bannon's feet, after he had coaxed the Indian goaltender away on a scoop play. Bone scored the last one in 2:16 on a short slap. Richmond played the best polo during the last twenty minutes of the game and fully deserved the victory. Indianapolis had one m-and-out goal. Line-up and summary: Indianapolis. Position. Richmond.

HIGGINS 1$ CHARGED WITH THROWING GAMES Special to the Indianapolis Journal. MUNCIE, Ind., April 5. Charles Farrell, ex-captain of the Muncie polo team, who probably will finish the season with Indianapolis, claims that he left the team because Higglns was "throwing games." He says that he did not resign until he saw that it was useless to attempt to win the pennant. . Recognizing the local popularity of Higglns, he says he told Petty that he would quit the team to avoid trouble. Farrell states that he was not released, but resigned. The same statement was also made by Petty, manager of the team. Petty expects Canavan, of Fort Way ne, here to play the remainder of the season with Muncie. ' ONLY ONE FAVORITE WON AT THE JENNINGS TRACK St. Juvenal Ran Well for Talent, Remaining Events Going to Second Choices. WASHINGTON, April 5. The card was an ordinary one at Bennings to-day.

M'COY WAS XOT TOUCHED

Before First Round Ended Plackc Was Covered with Blood and Eves Closed. PHILADELPHIA, April 5. Herr Tlacke, the champion of Holland, made a sorry spectacle of himself to-night In a fight with Kid McCoy at the Lenox , Club. Standing six inches taller and weighing over seventy pounds more than his pale-faced opponent. he was beaten almost insensible in less than four minutes. Placke never laid a glove on McCoy except when the men clinched, and the cool, calculating McCoy darted Inland out and around his burley opponent almost like lightning. He would feint with his right and then drive his left to the face viciously, scarcely ever failing to bring the blood. Before the first round ended Placke was covered with blood from his neck to his waist and both eyes were almost closed. Just before the gong sounded announcing the close of the first round McCoy drove .a vicious left Hush to the chin, dropping Iiacke like a log. The gong saved him from being knocked out. He was carried to his corner, only to be knocked down ten seconds after the opening of hostilities In the second round. McCoy feinted with right and then drove left to liacke's nose. The latter Intuitively placed his left hand over the damaged organ and dropped tc his knees. The blood was running troni him in a stream. As he knelt the police appeared at the ringside and stopped the bout. DESCRIPTION OF BATTLE. Round 1-Iiacke led with his left, but fell short. McCoy landed a right on Placke's jaw. McCoy landed a left on the Jaw and repeated with his right. McCoy sent Placke down with a straight left on the chin and the latter took the count of eight. McCoy landed another left flush on the mouth, drawing blood. McCoy drove a hard left to Placke's nose and the latter was all but out. A left and right to the face made Placke look like a piece of raw beef. He was hanging on to avoid punishment. McCoy dived in with a right and then with a hard left on the mouth. Placke was blinded. He could not see. A vicious left dropped the Hollander, but the gong saved him. McCoy had not been touched. Placke's exhibition was miserable. He was bleeding from the mouth and nose. Round 2 McCoy drove a vicious right to liacke's mouth and the latter dropped to his knees and refused to get up. liacke's face was a horrible sight and his right eye was closed completely and his lips were puffed up to four times their normal size. As he knelt upon the floor the police walked to the ringside and stopped the bout. The second round lasted less than twenty seconds. BASEBALL NOTES. Detroit here again to-day. Game called at 3 o'clock. Newlin will be given a trial against the Tigers to-day. Crawford's home run hit cleared the fence by several feet. Magoon is on the sick list, but will be able to play in a couple of days. Biery's work at first needs much training. He does not seem able to get throws that are a trifle wide. . Hess is' busy taking off a few pounds of superfluous weight, and as soon as he gets in shape will be able to play faster ball. Detroit's team is not in the best of shape, as a few of the Tigers have experienced slight injuries since coming North. Dickey somewhat resembles George Carey, the old first baseman. He promises to make good at the initial bag for the Hoosiers. Hogriever sat in the grandstand yesterday. He has made no overtures to sign, but it is safe to say the fever is taking hold of him. Without joking about the matter, it would be safe to bet that Indianapolis will finish better In the American Association than Detroit will in the American League. Rnschnll for Richmond. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. RICHMOND, Ind., April 5. The first game of baseball to be played in Richmond this season is set for next Sunday. It will be between the local independent club and a picked team from the players of the Western Roller Polo League. The polo players will be: Jessup, catcher; Lewis, pitcher; Bone, shortstop; Bannon, first base; Hart, second base; Cunningham, jr., third base: Higglns, left field; Lyons, center field, and Cunningham, sr., right field.

WORTH WILL XOT OPEX

Turf Officials Anticipate Xo Interference from Outside Tracks. CHICAGO, April 5. "The American Derby will surely be run. The quarrel over dates does not affect us." This statement was made to-day by Lawrence A. Young, president of the Washington Park Jockey Club. The sentiment among the Western Jockey Club leaders also was that the prospects of a turf war coming from the Worth Jockey . Club sources were very slight and not to be feared. It was believed by them and admitted that the combination of the Western Jockey Club and the Pacific Coast Jockey Club formed an obstacle which cut short all possible combinations to combat the local organizations. Worth's course was said to-day to be still undecided, but officials of the track declared positively that Worth will not open on the dates assigned. Speaking of the racing situation about Chicago. Secretary Harvey T. Woodruff, of the Western Jockey Club, said: "I do not think local turf officials anticipate any pronounced interference from dissatisfied tracks. The schedule for all tracks around Chicago, including Worth, is exactly the same as last year. Being leap year all dates are moved forward two days. What St. Louis might do is entirely a matter of conjecture." WEIGHT MEN MAKE EXCELLENT SHOWING Hurley and Thomas,- of Purdue Track Team, Throw Hammer 135 Feet. Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

"Sacrifice hitting is one of the best run-getters In the business, but there are lots of times when It will not do to sacrifice WlSilr th Yt anl run ! mt if tvt1 1 - t-1 j is a better proposition and one that 1j more admired by the spectators. Sacrifice hitting is all right when one. run will win the game or when the score Is very close and the pitchers are working In first-clafd shape. At that time, with a man on first, it may be better to advance him to second with a Kacrince In order to have him In a place where he can score on a hit. "With the hit and run game well carried out It is possible to advance the runnT without sacrificing the batter. If the team should be two or three runs to the bad It is necessary to do some - hitting to win Samen. With a man on first and a good man following who can hit to right field our chances are better with the hit and run than with a sacrifice. The first baseman Is held at- his base wltb the runner, th second baseman might have the fdgnal to cover second on an attempted steal and the shortstop, of course, would back up stcond. Then a pood hitter would only have to meet the ball to get a hit. I will train the men to meet the ball and try to hit for one base rather-than to try and knock the cover off the sphere. "You have noticed that I have placed Carr at the top of the batting order in the exhibition games and the chances are that I will keep him there If he continues to show a good man to get to arst on any kind of a chance. Magoon will follow Carr, and Magoon is a good man to carry out my idea of hit and run. Other good batters will follow Magoon and I believe we will be able to win many games with the hit and run play." If Phillips can perfect his idea there is no doubt of it proving successful, but Facrifice hitting is one of . the greatest plays in the game and he should train his men to bunt and run out the hits. Phillips Is well-pleased with the work of the men who are to look after the infield positions. Ho acknowledges that the outfield recruits have shown no great amount of speed but it is quite likely that the outfield will be cared for by an entirely different set of players than those who are now trying for positions. The delinquent players are expected to report to-day. Ebrnod Player Have Signed. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ELWOOD, Ind..
