Flooded Ball Park and Much Bunch From Battling Very Bad 'President Murphy yesterday declared that , not only was the story that he had an understanding with Johnny Evers by which the star second baseman was to rest this season untrue, but further, that he expected Evers to report soon sooner than June' 15 and whenever he was badly needed. President Murphy said, however, that he never will insist that Evers play unless his little star feels that he is able to play, and that if Evers insists it is a question of health he never will insist. The report that Evers intends to remain idle all season and not play any ball is old, and President Murphy says there is nothing new to indicate that Evers will remain away longer than he said he would. Neither is there any indication that he will return sooner than ho said. In fact, Evers' case remains Just where it was. Game With HHnl Called Off. Rain stopped the final practice game. Del Howard and his fearless freshmen were to play with the Illini, the unwhipped champions of college baseball.

Hi TO" SAYS HURPHr

Rain Prevent Del Howard's the Illini; Grounds in Conditionand it will require a lot of work on the infield to make the grounds presentable even if the rains cease and the floods subside. The grounds have been allowed to go to rack during the winter and the outfield is lumpy and hilly, while the infield is mushy and uncertain. The grounds will require a lot of working over before they will be fit for good baseball and excuses will have to be made for both sides during the early games this year. Brown and Overall Here. Brown and Overall reached Chicago yesterday morning to rest up, as Overall is scheduled to pitch the opening game against St. Louis. Both pitchers are in grand shape and both are confident that the Cubs will run through the league this season. The sub Cubs were out for brief practice yesterday morning between showers, but the wetness drove them off the grounds and before noon a steady downpour set in which made a game impossible. As to the appointment of Billy Sullivan as manager of the Sox, the Cubs in town were enthusiastic, for with them Sullivan is extremely popular and they rejoiced over his selection. SULLI1J WILL JMMGE SOX Old Roman Relinquishes Dream of Jones' Return at Eleventh Hour. CHICAGO LAUDS HIS CHOICE New Boss of South Siders Is Idol of Fans and Best Catcher ' ; In League. William Jerry Sullivan, catcher and Irishman, will lead Chicago's White Sox in the pennant race this year. Comiskey yesterday announced Sullivan as the manager of his team, vice Jones with sincere regret at the loss of Jones and equally sincere belief that Sullivan will lead the team to victory. Chicago applauded Comiskey's choice for no greater ball player or more popular, ever wore a White Sox uniform, and when Comiskey finally relinquished his dream that Jones would return at the eleventh hour and fiftyninth minute, the fans cheered. The selection of Sullivan, whether it be good or bad. meets the approval of the baseball cranks of the city, and settles the dispute. Whether the managerial duties will affect Sully's catching, whether he possesses the guiding genius necessary to success, remains to be seen. Personally I think Sullivan a greater leader than ever Fielder Jones has been, a man possessing more of the qualities and generalship necessary to lead, and more magnetism. He has the respect of the players, he has their confidence, ami he possesses that fighting spirit necessary to win. The weak point will be that Sullivan cannot be in the game every day and he cannot do as much execution from the bench as behind the bat. Jim"' Chief Anxlntnnt. Sullivan has been Jones' chief assistant for three years, and the presiding genius of the pitchers. lie is popular with the players. Arm, and commands respect. Anyhow, managing the White Sox consists more of carrying out intelligently the orders of Comiskey than anything else, and Sully can do that. Besides he knows Comiskey's ideas of baseball well enough to carry the mout without orders. FIGHT MANAGERS I!! . BOOTLESS CONFAB Powwow of Impresarios Fails to Settle Question of Opponent for Johnson. New York, April 13. The rolling mills of Pittsburg never dreamed of kicking up the noise that Napoleon Willis Britt did here yesterday afternoon at the meeting of the champions and near-champions that crave the crown of one John Johnson. J. J. was present. The colored champion wandered into the office flanked by an army of newsboys, cowboys and bewhiskered and nonwhiskered boys, too. Billy Delaney came as spokesman for Kaufman, Britt chinned for Ketchel, Joe Woodman dipped In an oar occasionally for Sam Langford, and Abe Arends defied the world for Johnson. The human clgarholder took the floor Immediately without invitation and held

Said Willis: "Gentlemen of the padded fist, we are assembled here, I take it. to bring about a definite understanding as to which of us has the prior claim on the gentleman from Texas. "Johnson practically has agreed to meet Ketchel in October before Coffroth's club, and that is what the public demands. Ketchel has made a tremendous sensation, and I say, as does Coffroth. that he is the greatest drawing card in the world, next to Jeffries, when a battle for the title is considered." Then Delaney got up on his toes. He was mad clean through. In a jiffy the whole flock of managers were Jabbering away like a Chinese convention. Then Britt came to bat with this: "Jack, listen. Here's my plan. You sign right now to meet all three men and let the matches be submitted to the promoters of the country and let them in turn select the match they consider the greatest drawing card. I claim that it is a question of which fighter will draw the biggest crowd, and that ought to be your one concern, Johnson. Delaney yelled: "Why, that fellowwill never draw again, since, being knocked out by Papke." PACKEY Ai NELSON UNABLE 10 AGREE Have Final Conference and Fail to Come to Terms Over Pictures. The old saying that there is nobody as stubborn as a pugilist when it comes to making terms for a match again is proved in the case of Packey McFarland and Battling Nelson. The fighters held a final conference last night at the theater where McFarland is appearing this week and simply could not agree. Manager Harry Gilmore Jr. did the talking for McFarland and the Dane made his own conversation. The little thing they have been haggling over for two days still keeps them apart. The Dane does not want McFarland to cut in on the picture privilege. Gilmore insists that McFarland secure his bit. Gilmore made one concession. He offered to split the fighters' shae of the receipts of the pictures on a winner, and loser basis and friends of Nelson thought he would agree to this. But the Dane said "no" more firmly than ever. 45,000 SEE THE ATHLETICS WIN Philadelphia. April 13. Forty-five thousand, persons. babail record
