LOU DILLON IKES WORLD

RECORD OH Readville, Mass., Sept. 4. Over a track fully two seconds slower than when the great Lou Dillon startled the world with a mile In two minutes thereon, the trotting gelding Uhlan defeated Hamburg Belle in straight heats at the Readville track yesterday in the second meeting of the pair to decide the championship of the world. As Uhlan is a locally owned and bred horse the victory was decidedly popular, the crowd of 10,000 cheering vociferously at the conclusion of each of the heats and also when the victor returned to the wire for Driver Robert Proctor to welgh in. Hamburg Belle was favorite before the start at odds of to 35 because of her success last week in the initial meeting of the cracks at Cleveland, when she earned the world's record of 2:014 for trotters in a race, two seconds better than the previous mark, which had stood since the Cresceus-The Abbot race at Brighton Beach in 1903. In drawing for position Billy Andrews held to his usual run of good luck in securing the pole. This was rather disheartening to those following Uhlan. On the second score ."Walker sent them away to a fine start. Immediately Andrews opened a gap of a length GU6S BURY DODGERS, EBBETS HAS PROTEST Brooklyn, N. T., Sept. 4. There never was an opening too small for the cubs to crawl through. "With the score 4 to 2 against them at the beginning of the ninth inning. Chance's huskies began an attack on Harry Mclntire's high-grade pitching that netted eight runs and turned the conquest Into the laps of the eager champions by a 10 to 4 count. All this did not happen without a flare-up on the part of Charles H. Ebbets, president of the Brooklyn club, who filed a protest. Mr. Ebbets insisted that there was an iron-clad agreement between the managers of the teams which provided for calling the game at :15 to allow the cubs a chance to catch an early train to Cincinnati. During time when the supposed ending was in sight the cubs were in the midst of their run-making Jubilee and Umpire Johnstone refused to end the game and have the score revert to even Innings, which would have landed the dodgers in front. "I am not making the protest because of any benefit that the Brooklyn club will derive," said Ebbets, "but in justice to the Pittsburg team I think that my action will be supported.' The cubs had no chance to get eight runs if the boys had been playing a game upon which there was no time limit" Without stealing any theatrical thunder it might be fitting to remark, "Be that as it may." The public does not delve into the mysteries of time tables and train schedules and when a neat little parcel of good citizens flock to a ball yard, suppers, dinners and lunches can get cold and musty, even If the game goes beyond the allotted nine innings. Mr. Johnstone appears to have In mind the wishes of the faithful, who gathered to see the cubs cut up. GAMES TOMORROW. Gary vs. Crown Point, at Crown Point. Hammonds vs. Boilermakers, at H. A.

St. Josephs vs. All Saints, at Harrison park. Toung Blissmers vs. Kamradt Colts, at White House grounds. Both teams have met before and in both of the games it has ended in a shindy. Tomorrow's game will end all dispute as to which team are the best ball players.

NOTES

s A SLOV maintaining this advantage clear to the three-quarter pole, when it was seen Proctor was driving for the first time in earnest in attempting to overtake the leader with the black son of Bingen. Rapidly Uhlan closed in on the mare until at the end of the home stretch he had her lapped, his head being at her saddle. Andrews apparently had confidence in the finishing ability of Hamburg Belle and never made a move until he saw Uhlan had reached her neck. Then, thirty yards from the wire he tapped the trotting queen a couple of times, but she failed to respond, and Uhlan qulokly went into the lead, winning easily by two lengths. The fractional parts of the mile were 0:31, 1:02. 1:33 and 2:04. After a couple of warming up scores for the second heat the contestants turned for the word and got it the first time down. The pole, the backers and admirers of the Boston representative had concluded, was a big help, bujt just before reaching the quarter pole Andrews surprised every one by fairly Jumping Hamburg Belle Into the lead, so that It appeared from the grand stand as if Uhlan had met with an accident and had been forced to stop stock still. SOX DASH TO THE FRONT Hurray for the sox recruits! Messenger started a rally in the eighth that overcame the three runs of the exultant browns and brought the Sullivans home rejoicing with a 4 to 3 victory stowed away in their Jeans. Just by way of comment. Cole drove home the second tally with a single to left. Oh! You have to give it to those new hands. The South Side has staged few batltes this season that beat yesterday's drama. For a thoroughly satisfying episode it equaled Dr. Cook's recent capture of the pole. Upon Barney Pelty fell the brunt of the shock. For some reason or other Barney had the feeling that the sox were easily mystified. During seven innings he had held the Sullys down to two hits, and both of them did about as much good as a fishhook on the Sahara desert. Then came the brutal awakening. "With the twilight shadows dropping and with the chill of near night penertating the very bone, those sox suddenly found their eyesight. It was about time, for the browns had a 3 to 0 lead on the home guard. KETCHEL lil N.Y. FOR BOUT WITH LAflGFORD New York, Sept. 4. The doubting Thomases took a long breath yesterday morning when they saw assassin Ketchel's broad shoulders looming up in the crowd which had just tumbled down from the Twentieth Century limited at the Grand Central station. The middleweight champion looked as big as the proverbial house. He has taken on a lot of weight since we saw him last. In fact, his face looked a little too round and there was the slightest suspicion of a double chin. "That's not so much fat as It is sunburn.' offered Ketchel. 'I'm In splendid fettle and it will take but a few days for me to get into great fighting shape. I'm as hard as nails. The trip to the mountains did me a world of good. I'll be ready and I'll whip Langford. I've seen him fight. That's enough. It was seldom that I had that advantage over the other men I have met. And just to prove that the os magnum story wasn't a yarn, I want to show you these hands.' There wasn't any denying that the right had been badly broken across the entire top of the wrist. The bones after they mended didn't settle back into place and there Is an ugly ridge of bone marking the break. "It was like this," said Ketchel. "The Sunday before the fight I was boxing MY EVE'G

I couldn't close It nohow and the first good crack I hit on old Bill It snapped on me. If I had been able to close that fist I would have knocked Papke out. And I hurt the left, too.
