A KM XX UUVU liUllUi GOTCH NOT TO TRAIN IN CHICAGO Gotch, world's champion wrestler, last night surprised the promoters of the $25,000 wrestling bout set for the Coliseum the night of June 1 by wiring Emi.1 Klank, his manager, that he would not train In Chicago for his contest with Zbyszko. The big lowan also "came back" at the big Pole by ridiculing his statement that he would defeat Gotch in straight falls, saying the European would not get one fall and that the title would remain here. Aaccording to the champion, who has decided to remain in Minneapolis, where he has been training for three weeks for this contest, he has devised a new hold that he will spring on the Pole that will make his strength and wonderful defense futile. Zbyszko, meanwhile, ha begun his final training prepaartlons. The Pole Jogged twelve miles over the South Side boulevards yesterday, and plans working every afternoon at the I. A. C. gymnasium with Joe Rogers, Eugene Tremblay -and other clever mat men. He has sent to Buffalo forYank Rogers, another available mat partner, to gtve him the roughtest kind of a tryout BILLS BEST AT TRAPS. Dea Moines, la.. May 25. With a score of 174 out of 180, F. G.

CLARK STATION AT WHITING SUNDAY The Clark Station White Sox will play the Sutherland Colts at "Whiting next Sunday.

Batteries will probably be Wawrzyniak and Dutch Krueger for the White Sox and Mike and Sutherland for the Colts. (Special to Thb Times.) , East Chicago, Ind. May 25. The C., I. & S. Boilermakers retained their lead in the Calumet Industrial league Sunday morning when they defeated the Grasselli team at the North Hammond grounds by the score of 15 to 9, In a swatting contest. The game was marred by frequent fumbling, although It was closer than the score indicates as the Grasselli team gathered twelve safe bingles to the Boilermakers' thirteen. Score was as follows: Grasselli 4 0 0 3 0 1 0 0 1 9 Boilermakers ..1. 36300201 15 Batteries Goodfriend, Haugh and Murphy; Murray and Hudson.

Metals dropped a game to the I. H. Belt team at East Chicago Friday morning by the score of 8 to 1. It was a good game up to the fifth inning, both sides playing clean, fast ball, but In the sixth Jones, pitching for the U. S. team, ascended, looking CUBS CORRAL SECOfID 8Y SLAMMING ilOORE Perishing for the time much of his vaunted wildness( Harry Mclntire yesterday hurled the cubs, not quite, but nearly, to the top of the heap, crosscircuiting Dooin's live wires, making It two straight, 6 to 3. "Mac" and his salivated slants worked to perfection save in the second and sixth Innings, when ill-timed ascensions and either boots or wallops produced all the quaker tallies. Victory for the West Slders came when most desirable, for the redlegs had crawled uncomfortably near. Much of this pressure was swept aside, however, when the lowly Bostonese throttled the Rhinelanders and the pirates, lying Idle at the instance of the weather man, today find themselves but seven points above Chance's troupe. Sturm's consistent bowling on Cox's alleys last night put himself and his partner McFarland In first place In the two-man event. Leslie and Jaques dropped to second place. Sturm's three successive strikes in the last game won for the two men. Two other contestants will roll tonight, which will close the doubles. Some of the scores made on Cox's alleys during the present tournament have been good ones for this part of the region. Following are the scores made by the teams who figure in the money-getting: 1st. 2nd. 3rd Total McFarland .176 163 141 Sturm 1S7 193 210 1,070 Leslie 158 194 187 Jaque 176 172 167 1,054 Lowry 180 186 174 O'Rourke ...183 142 171 1,036 POLE DOES 12 MILES Oil ROAD FOR GOTCH 00 Zbyszko, who is matched to meet Gotch on the mat at the.

C. gymnasium with Joe Rogers. Eugene Tremblay and oth er wrestlers. He has wired to Buffalo for Yank Rogers, who is expected to bear the brunt of the rough work. Gotch, who is in Minneapolis, and who was expected to'arrive here today, has changed his mind and will do his training in the gopher .city. Gotch is reported to have conceived a new hold which he plans to spring on the Pole. Just what the new "squeeze" is Emil Klank, Gotch's manager, refuses to divulge. Whatever it is, it must be good, for Gotch is said to be thinking of substituting it for his famous toe hold against the Pole.

'Darkness put a stop to the battle between the White Sox and Highlanders here yesterday afternoon before the first game of the series was decided. Twelve long Innings were played to a 5-to-5 tie. The sox appeared in a new role by making a Garrison finish and pushing three runs over the plate in the ninth inning that caused the battle to go into extra rounds. If half the energy had been expended in the first eight innings that was shown in that ninth inning rally, there would have been no need for the tie count. Frank -Smith was on the mound for eight, Innings, and played the hero part in the tying rally, but he pitched one of his poor games and after the score was even Duffy sent Jimmy Scott to the front to hold down the peeved highlanders, and Scotty did so without allowing a single hit for the four in nings that he worked. 1ST IS BIG FIELD . FOR ELECTRIC CARS F. A. Babcock Jr.. of the Babcock Electric Carriage company, spent a few hours between trains yesterday visiting John T. Fisher, manager of the Chicago branch, while on his return to the factory from in extended western trip. Mr. Babcock reports an increase in the demand for electrics from all parts of the country, but that the west Is taking an unusually large number this year "California and Oregon are clamoring for Babcocks," said Mr. Babcock. "A few years ago an electric car was a curiosity on .the streets of some of the principal cities along the Pacific coast. Today they are as thick as the proverbial bees. In fact.Vthe competition on the coast has become so keen that we will have to increase our output next year to take care of the trade there if we wish to satisfy the demands." Mr. Babcock was pleased with the location and appointments of his Chicago branch. He congratulated Mr. Fisher on the success with which he has met in the sale of Babcocks this year, and was interested in the report that the sale of the electrics In this part of the country is not restricted to the large cities, numerous vehicles hav. lng been sold in the smaller towns throughout Illinois. Indiana and Iowa. DELAIJEY WILL BE JACK'S jl'F SECOND San Francisco, Cal., May 25. "I think I will have Mr. Delaney to second me In my fight with Jeffries." Such was Jack Johnson's declaration at the close of an interview with the veteran handler of pugilists, Billy Delaney, at the Seal Rock hotel yesterday. Delaney, to all appearances, simpy dropped in on Johnson with a number of other sporting men. who wheeled out to the beach camp in an automobile.
