The Cleveland Naps fired a couple of
broadsides Into the pennant hopes of
White Sox fans yesterday when they won both games of the Labor Day bill here. The score of the morning game
was 6 to 0 and that of the afternoon 5 to 2, with the Sox on the short end
of each.
Walsh was the Sox pitcher In the morning game, but he was not the
Walsh who shut the Naps out on Sat
urday in Chicago. He was taken out after he pitched five innings and Manuel was sent in for two rounds. Jones
wanted to send up a stronger batter than Moxey in the eighth, and so he was replaced by Altrock In the last
Inning.
Birmingham shone with the bat In
the morning game.
Carl Anderson yesterday lost his ten round bout with Young Mahoney of Racine, but the fans are satisfied never
theless. He put up a splendid fight and will meet Mahoney again in the near future at Racine. All In all, the boxing carnival which was held under a big tent just across the line in Illinois was the best one in many years, that has been pulled off in this neck of the woods. A good orderly crowd of fans gathered from the region to witness the bouts and after three hours of sport went away satisfied. Anderson and Mahoney. Anderson and Mahoney, the star attractions were late getting into the ring and another two-round rounds would have ended their conteston account of darkness. From start to finish they "milled" and "grP'ed" each other until the fans were wild with excitement. After the first round Mahoney developed a big bunch of admirers. Mahoney was the stronger man of
the two but he had nothing on An-
erson In the way of aggressiveness.
Both went to it willingly, but the Hammond boy did not have the steam that the Badger displayed. Anderson went
o the mat eight times, but only twice
was he In any danger. He made good
se of the time to snatch a moment's. Ninth Anderson's Round. The ninth was Anderson's best round.
He was stronger then the earlies In the game and his backers were satisfied that the . end of the tenth round would find him on his feet. And It did.

CUBS BREAK EVEN.
Exchange of shutouts between Cubs and Reds yesterday In the Labor Day double bill was no robbery and neither was It a boost for those champeens,
who had a chance to progress a little as New York lost a game. It Isn't al
ways an easy task to beat dub teams
if they happen to be favored with
strong pitching. Such was the case in
the morning game, when Dubuc allow
ed the Cubs only one swat and blanked
them, 6 to 0. Andrew Jackson Coakley, debutting in a Chicago uniform
smeared the whitewash over his former
pals in the afternoon pastime, 4 to 0
The say Dubuc went to college, but his pitching didn't have any of the
rah! rah! frills to it. He didn't seem
to be handicapped in the slightest by a
higher education, but went on and
pitched like blazes.

CARL ANDERSON.
worthy of mention being that by the
ten-year O'Hern twins of South Chi
cago, who went three rounds for a pot
to a draw.
The negro bout by "Texas" Brown
and "Wild Bill" Langdon of South Chi
cago as light heavyweights promised
some scientific work, but Texas Brown was too heavy for the South Chicago
black and in the second round the lat
ter took the count.
Tommy Livingston and Oro Nichols
were the first to go on in the prelims.
The decision went to Livingston as was
expected. He was heavier and rangier than his little opponent but the latter
showed up remarkably well. For excitement the six-round preliminary by Tim O'Neill of Irondale and Hahlweg of West Hammond was nothing short of the main mill. Hahlweg had the staying powers but he did not have the punches. While O'Neill was cleaverly entitled to the bout, there were many who thought It should have been a draw. Still where It Is taken into consideration that O'Neill 313 the train work combined with his agressiveness the decision was fair. Xotea of the Fight. Jimmy Clabby refereed the preliminaries and gave good satisfaction. Tom Green proved to be an excellent master of ceremonies. Young Mahoney will try to get a fight with Papke. Frank Chllds, colored heavyweight ex-champion, was among the fighters at the ringside.
South Chicago was well represented by a bunch of live ones. C. E. Baker was Carl Anderson's manager, and It Is due to his activity that the fight was made a go. "You're a good fellow Anderson," said Mahoney to Carl after the tenth round. "I want to meet you In Racine." "You're on," answered Anderson.

won the second by the score of 3 to 0
Ebner and Hudson were the batteries
for the Hubs and May pitched for the

When the Hammond team was so badly walloped on Sunday the players
made up their minds to put up their best article of ball. They did It and
the score shows the result. Sunday game: Hubs 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 03 9

Los Angeles, Sept. 7. Billy Fapke
of Illinois is middle weight champion of the world.
In twelve furious rounds today at the
Vernon arena he conclusively proved his superiority over Stanly Ketchel,
and when Referee Jim Jeffries held Bill's hand aloft In token of victory
Ketchel's second were hearing him, a shattered and bleeding mass, to his corner.
Although the result will go down
on the records as a knockout, and al
though Jeffries did not pronounce the fateful ten above him, the former
helgh-welght champion stopped tolling off the second at the count of nine, after Papke had knocked Ketchel down
twice in the twelfth, and ordered Ket
chel carried to his corner. Stanley was
reeling about with bent knees, with his gloves touching the floor and his face streaming blood from mouth, nose and eyes. Another blow might have resulted too seriously to be risked. It was one of the fastest battles ever! witnessed here and was remarkable for the fact that conditions were entirely reversed from the last meeting between the men. In the fight at Milwaukee Ketchel knocked Papke down with the first punch and had the lead throughout. In the fight today Papke knocked Ketchel down three tlmejS in rapid succession and had him groggy at the end of the very first period. From that time the bout was Papke's.
BOY BREAKS STATE MARK. Valparaiso, Ind., Sept. 7. Tom Hend erson of Hebron defeated Charles Schneck of Valparaiso In a mile race here today for schoolboys. His time of 4:41 breaks the state record for the time distance.
CHICAGO DISCOVERS A NEW PLAYER.
M0RAN-ATTELL BOUT A DRAW.
Featherweights Go Twenty-Three Rounds to Even Break at Frisco. San Francisco, Sept. 7 Abe Attell of this city and Owen Moran of England battled twenty-three fast rounds to a draw at the Colma arena today. Referee Jack Welch holding the hands of both men In the air as the gong clanged to mark the end of the battle. While the decision was popular and was loudly cheered, most of the applause seemed to be for the little Briton, who gave Attenn one of the hardest fights of his career. Moran himself was bitterly disappointed at the verdict and claimed that he would surely have won had It not been breaking his hand In the second round. He said that even with this disadvantage he more than beat Attell, claiming he had a lead "by a mile." As proof of his Injury he displayed a badly swollen right hand. Attell also has a disjoined knuckle as the result of the bout, but otherwise came out of the mill without a mark. Moran's face was bruised badly and one of his eyes was closed as the result of Attell's cease1" abblns.
Ruminating among the football cobwebs yesterday Director A. A. Stagg and Capt. Walter Steffen discovered a player whom they had forgotten. Like the Little Boy Blue's tin soldier, the athlete had become only a memory. He was a promising candidate for the team several years ago, and now Is not only eligible but likely to brace up the back field. Harry Scott Is the resurrected player. He is an experienced player and at one time was a half back with Iddings on the freshman team. At that time he weighed 160 pounds. Now he has grown to weigh 180, and It is believed he still retains the speed and nerve which he showed at one time on Marshall field. Steffen counts on him as a certain back field regular.
