it will be with the Chicago team. Or It he doesn't rdav until the season after
that it will still be with the cubs. And when' he does come into the fold it will be at less salary than was offered him to play wit hthe team this season."
Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 1. John
Kling, the baseball catcher, former
member of the Chicago National base
ball club, will manage an eastern team
in either the National or American
league next year. This statement was
made by Kling today r.fter he had wired Clark Griffith, manager of the Cincin

"I have two propositions now before

JOBS IN FAST VICTORY
New York, Sept. 1. Chance's cubs swept the baseball platter almost clean during their stay in New York this time, for they won the final game of the series yesterday by the score of 2 to 0. which gives them four contests out of the five played. Wiltse was the pitching obstacle McGraw installed in the box. and the left
hander twirled well. It was a leak in his support that gave the champions their first run. The second tally was earned in the ninth inning when the bears achieved Wiltso's numeral and welded two hits and a sacrifice into their last run. Chance pitched Brown back at the
giants, and his support was as baseball
tight as his pitching was hitproof. The three-fingered pitcher allowed only five hits, but he showed keen judgment in
spreading these -safe swats over as
many innings. That pays in the end.
On the whole the giants played a
here and there game mostly there.
That is, they were not there when they should have been. Devlin had a bad cold in his chest and McGraw put Shafer in at the third corner. The recruit
handed the cubs their first run with a weird chuck. On another occasion Merkle gave Archer a life by neglect
ing to apply his foot to the first bag. Fortunately, from a Merkle point of view, the cub catcher never completed his journey. There were few high lights or purple patches in the game. It was rather slow and very businesslike baseball. The cubs were the better business men. There was a tang of frost in the air, and the crowd was comparatively small. After this cub series, indications are that the New York gate receipts will be decidedly on the wane.

JOHNSON SAYS JEFF WILL HEDGE ON FIGHT
Bent on nailing down permanent
jobs with the white sox, Cole and Mes
senger helped stagger the Athletics yes
terday at the South Side, 2 to 0. They were equally as prominent as Frank Smit hin the social affair. For, with
two down in the third inning and Man
ager Sully on second, Messenger beat out a hit to Baker and Cole drove them both home on as sparkling a single to
center as the season has produced.
All the praises that "Commy" has
heaped on Messenger were amply de
served by the big recruit. Although a
husky, powerful fellow, the raw hand beat it around the bases like an eightcylinder car. His exhibition of trying to reach third from first on Parent's sacrifice in the Inaugural inning was thrilling, to say the least. Only some highly elaborated tagging on the latter's part extinguished the late comer. He did steal second In the third, just to show that he has the "pep." This victory put the sox back on easy street, better known as the .500 mark. They have grown to like the position an dare determined to stick there, or above if possible. The naps are a little ahead ,but not so far but that a little fortune today will stick the Sullys in front. Moreover, the horn- guard enjoyed knocking the Athletics' pennant hopes a trifle. It helps a lot and is
exceedingly satisfying.

and the i oung Blissmers can't get
along together. Every game there is a gnashing of teeth and then the game
breaks up in a shindv.
Josh Billings was kept busy chalking up tallies for the St. Joseph club. It was rumored that he was up nearly
all night figuring up the scores, hits
and errors. Hard on the scorekeeper. Big Ed, the violin tickler, will pitch against the All Saints' team, and if he wins the purse it is probable that he wil lreceive his share of it. He will do his best, for the purso looks good to the winner. It is thought that the Kamra.lt Colts will come together In the near future. But they cannot decide as to what grounds they will play on. Hammond is certainly the baseball center of Lake county. More than a dozen teams and nearly every one owns
a baseball suit. Providence and Newark have started another rush for the Eastern league pennant. Ty Cobb looks good for the hitting and base-stealing honors of the American league. The Chicago Cubs hold fast at the heels of the Pirates. Keep your eye on the Windy City. Autrey, who has rejoined the Boston Nationals, is putting up a rice
article of ball at first base. Boston rooters and war correspondents make up quite a crowd taking the western trip with the Red Sox. I'mpire Bob Pender of the Virginia league, may get the opportunity of hearing what they call umpires in one of the major leagues next season. It is said the Tri-State league is considering the revival of outlaw baseball. Their present organization is too slow for the Tri-Staters.

38 MINOR LEAGUERS TO BE SECURED BY THE CHAMPIONS
San Francisco, Sept. 1. When Jack Johnson read in the dispatches that Jim Jeffries had indorsed Sam Berger's action in the recent match making conference at Chicago he murmured: "That looks like business.' Then Johnson went out on the road and thought things over as he trudged along the Piedmont highways. When he returned to his quarters at Cockrells' he was In a pessimistic mood. All his faith in JefTrles' good intentions had vanished. "Jeffres doesn't intend to fight me," said Johnson. "I'll bet $1,000 that I am right. He will come back to this country with bands playing and he'll work the theatrical game for all it is worth. He may sign articles and appoint a date for the fight, but mark my words, when the time draws near there will
be an accident or a doctor's certificate setting forth that Jeffries' health will not allow him to fight." All attempts to reason- Johnson out
of this line of thought were futile, lie says that If in the trend of events it should prove that he was wrong he will cheerfully admit the fai-t and if necessary apologize to Jeffries for doubting him.

Cincinnati. O., Sept. 1. President Murphy of the Cubs arrived here yesterday to be on hand at the meeting of the National Commission, which was to have been held at Chicago this week, but was transferred here at Carry Herrmann's request. Murphy said the Cubs would secure by draft, or purchase a small array of minor league players this fall, naming thirty-eight as the- probable num
ber he would land for consideration and try outs. Murphy said that there was nothing new in the Kling case so far as he knew, but there we're lots of rumors to the effect that the Reds were anxious to get Kling and that Herrmann had a phone talk with tho catch r this morning. The commission will go through a lot of routine business today, mostly concerning drafts and purchases and claims.
