walk in front of the East Chicago com

with each other. Fearing (?) that someone would be hurt, Esenberg ln tcrfered and, showing his star, ordered

Instead of taking his advice, they
began to take off their coats and sifd

stable. By the time assistance arrived.

CHAMPS
CHANCE MAY LEAVE
Manager of Cubs Has Spat With Murphy and Reds May Get Him.
GANS DENIES HERFORD IS
TO MANAGE HIM AGAIN.
Baltimore, Md., Nov. 2. Joe Gans,
sitting in his Baltimore hotel today,
had this to say for the benefit of the
local fans:
"I am sorry that my name has again
been connected with Al Herford. It is all a mistake, and I fear that my chances of getting on in New York
have been ruined because of the story that I was under his management. I know that 'I can't pick up with Herford again. He helped me, as you
know, at times, but I was the money
maker and there isn't any question to
who made Herford. I will never team with him as long as I fight."
Frank L. Chance may never again be seen in action as manager of the
world's champion Cubs. Chance left
for California for the winter last night, but before going he said unless certain changes were made he would
never again act as manager of the Cubs while Charles W. Murphy was
their president. Husk appeared de
termined in his stand and it is likely more serious developments may fol
low. Chance and Murphy have quar
reled over the handling of the club, and the manager says he wants no more
to do with Murphy.
President Murphy is ill at his home
in Oak Park and his physician refused
to allow him to be interviewed yester
day. Perhaps the attitude of Chance
Is the cause of his illness. The Cub fans may have to -wait several days
before Murphy makes a statement con cerning the difficulties.
Chance Determined in Stand.
Lnder present conditions I feel it
will be next to impossible for me to
continue as manager of the Cubs un
der the direction of President Charles
W. Murphy," said Chance. Husk is
known among his players as one who
will make a hard fight on any stand he takes and his declaration that he
does not care to continue as manager of the Cubs is not the joke that it
might seem.
It was rumored yesterday in baseball circles the break between Presi
dent Murphy and Manager Chance
might result in a trade with Cincin
nati, whereby Husk would go to" the
Reds in exchange for Hans Loart,
Hobby Hoblitzell, and a good sized bag of money. The owners of the
Cincinnati club have beem on the look
out for a high class manager for some
time. At first they tried to make
dicker for Johnny Kling of the Cubs
but apparently this effort has failed. Reds Eager to Get Manager.
Should the trouble between Murphy
and Chance come to a head, it is cinch the Reds would jumD at
chance to get a man like the Cub chief
to lead their club in another effort to
land the bunting in Pulliam's circuit.
As for Garry Herrmann, the shoe would
fit very nicely, and no doubt the Cln
cinnati politician would ship a barre
of gold to Chicago to close the deal
But the Chicago fans would not be as
well pleased.
Frank Chance is everything to th
Cubs his title of Big Bear implies. He
Is a popular manager. He has led th team to three straight victories in th
National league, and has landed tw
world titles in as many years. He has

are that next spring there will be two or more new clubs in it. Joe Carney,
president of the Milwaukee club, who Is building a new baseball park, wants to enter into a deal with Jimmy Calla
han, of Chicago, and get the Logan Squares into the league. Callahan had
conference with Carney regarding
the matter, but Jimmy prefers to have two Chicago clubs in the league with Milwaukee, Gary, Ind., and two other
good cities. Or he would be willing to make it an eight-club league and have four teams in Chicago. They will meet again before long and talk the matter over more thoroughly.

FORFEIT SECOND GAME
Fails to Meet the South Chi
cago Squad Last Sunday.
The football game between the Gary-
team and South Chicago which was
to have been playe din Gary and was later changed to South Chicago, was not played owing to the fact that the Gary team did not show up. This is
the second time that the locals have made a date and have failed to keep it.
and if they keep this up they will soon
have a very unsavory reputation in the vicinity. Although they have been practicing fairly well during the week
when it came to getting the men together to go to South Chicago they could not locate all of the men. Managere Savage of the Gary team has
resigned owing to the action of the men who have failed to play the games that have been schedud.

NELSON TO TELL GOTHAM
HOW HE WHIPPED GANS.
New York, Nov. 2. Hear that rumble? That's Battling Nelson fighting his way down Broadway with a howling mob at his heels. The Dane has arrived from Boston and will soon be telling us how he whipped the "Old master." Nelson comes to fill several theatrical engagements, to talk shop, to show the prospectus of his new book and tell Packy McFarland, Johnny Thompson, Murphy, Cross, Goodman and the rest to fight it out among themselves.

What Country Dwellers Need. A third of our population is urban; the rest is more or less rural. What the country dwellers need to make them happy are religion, education and material prosperity. The farms cannot employ as many laborers per acre as they did before the coming of agricultural machinery. Therefore they must either raise fewer children or export some of their population to the cities. Harper's Weekly.
Indiana Harbor, Ind., Nov. 3. At
torney P. A. Parks yesterday received
the articles of incorporation of the new Lake county department store company of this city. The capital stock Is fixed at $10,000 and is comprised of 2,000 shares at the par value of $5 each. Investigation among the directors of the company, revealed the fact that this stock is to be sold in blocks of not more than 20 shares to each buyer, to the foreign residents of Indiana Harbor and vicinity. L. W. Saric of the Farovid real estate agency, has charge
of the sales, and predicts that their first store will be in operation by December 1. This will be located at 3507 Deodar street, and, under the management of Nick Meyer, will cater to the foreign trade of the city.
Con roth Offers Date to McFarland and Johnny Thompson. San Francisco, Cal., Nov. 2. Packey McFarland and Cyclone Johnny Thomp
son may meet before Jimmy Coffroth's club at Colma. Coffroth has offered
these two lads a date and It now rests with the fighters. Thompson has an
nounced that he will meet Packey over
any number of rounds, and as mess
ages to Nelson have not brought forth any definite replies, it is proposed to
have McFarland appear here some time on December, if the Chicago boy will consent. The idea is to send the winner after Nelson some time next spring.

Schneider of the board of education yesterday mornfrom Dr. W. B. Pollard of Evansville, Ind., father of the young man of the ruined prospects. The letter ran in part: "My son, and only child, contracted that 'disease' baseball craze) while attending the Northwestern Medical school, and as a result, his prospects for a useful professional career are blighted." (
London, Nov. 3. Jimmy Britt, the
California fighter, defeated Johnny
Summers of England at the end of the tenth round last night at Wonderland.
The conditions of the fight called for
ten rounds at 133 pounds. The men
weighed in at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.
Summers had the better of the first two rounds and Britt, seeming to
realize his disadvantage, put more energy into his work and shaped up
much better In the succeeding rounds The Englishman showed great clev
erness, and the sixth, seventh, and Eighth rounds looked to be a winner.
Britt came back, however, and fought
his man to the ropes, having a con
siderable advantage in the ninth and
tenth rounds. The American was declared the win
ner on points, although a considerable
section of the spectators who filled the
big hall questioned the referee's decision. " For sereral minutes there was every indication of a riot, and it was with the utmost difficulty that quiet was restored. Britt and he referee were
loudly hooted as they left the hall. Much dissatisfaction is expressed in the newspapers and in circles where the fight is discussed at the referee having pronounced Jimmy Britt the victor over Johnny Summers in last night's bout, but. according to Sporting Life, although it was a splendid exhibition on both sides and Summers showed remarkable speed and cleverness at long range fighting, the referee gave Britt credit for an immense amount of infighting, the value of which the referee was in a far better
position to judge than a majority of the spectators.

"You'll never get the right swing wi' a thing like that on yer head," said Tom, and taking a club he showed the young man the proper swing. On trying it the neophyte just struck the back of his hat and knocked It off. A cap was afterward found more suitable.
