CUB SECONDS DEFEAT EVANSVILLE IN 11 INNINGS, 4 TO 2 Foxen Keeps Central League Men off First Base For Five Rounds. Evansville, Ind., April 4. Chicago's sub-Cubs engaged in a mighty warfare with the Evansville Central league team In the mud yesterday afternoon and after two hairbreadth escapes, and the timely arrival of Joe Tinker as re lnf orcements, they managed to win, "-to" 2, in eleven innings. Twice during the harrowing events of the closing rounds Evansville hit ters banged the ball almost over the left field fence, and in either case bit of luck would have turned the tide and given them the gameX Indeed, it was a day eventful In the history of the Cubs. They played like the St. Louis Browns, getting twenty six men on bases and being lucky to score enough runs to hold the score even, until finally In the eleventh In nlng Steinfleldt jarred the balance downward with a terrific line drive over the left field fence and broke the tie. After that the defense crumbled a bit and the Cublets got onto the fact that Myers, a little left-hander who could pitch well in spots, could not pitch at all with men on bases, and they ran circles around the bases. But even . atter that these upstart Central league bushers, who have not been on any expensive training trip, refueed to surrender and fought back until it required a rather nice catch by Jimmy Doyle to prevent another tie after two men were out. and that on a drive that looked as if it would clear -the left field fence and give Grant's Grabbers the game.

J. McCarey and Referee Charles F. iyton, charged Jointly with having promoted and participated in a fight at ernon, March 17, he bound the de fendants over to answer to the charge before the superior court. His honor wasted no time in feinting or sparring. The punch was landed in record time, the . entire proceedings lasting less than ten minutes. McCarey, as- soon as he had taken the. count, asked for a return battle -Application for a writ of habeas corp us had been prepared in advance by ringmaster t.ari Kogers. The scene switched to the private office of Judge George H. Hutton, of department 10 of the superior court.

JOHNSON

BEGS

STAY 18 JAIL," IS AWSWER

San Francisco, Cal., April 4. Attor neys for Jack Johnson, the negro pug ilist,"1 filed a petition with District Attorney Fickert today for Johnson's parole. Johnson claims that he must be in New York City before April 10 to appear in a civil suit or he will lose $4,000. According to Fickert, Johnson stands a good chance of losing the $4,000 and of serving out his full twenty-five day term in 1 he county jail, where he now Is. The district attorney and Sheriff Thomas Finn think that by the time his sentence Is over Johnson will be cured of hla fee- for autoaiofclle speeding in San Francisco at least. "Will you grant the parole?" Fickert was asked. "I think Johnson will stay in jail," was the answer. "I make It the rule never to sign a parole until it Is asked for by the committing judge. I don't KOEHLER STAYS TE!i ROUNDS WITH PACKEY Ohio Fighter Is Outpointed, But Gives Chicago Man a Lively Battle. Canton, O.. April 4. Paul Kohler stayed ten rounds with Packey McFariand last night. Packey had a shade, but was given a lively battle. In the first round Kohler was timid. Packey's reputation apparently ' frightened him. In .the second Kohler recovered his nerve, played hard for McFarland's face ' and landed several times. The Chicagoan was evidently leading him on. The third round made it look for a while as if the stock yards lad was not fighting, but toward the end he sent a couple to Kohler's face. The fourth was easily McFarland's. He hooked over several to Kohler's face and knocked the Cleveland fighter through the ropes. v 1.. .tftdfcW (Mij-JjtHHyl-1viiiiifii- """ ""fl '"Hr"' t" vTQ ,iimflttiTttltti. ff':Msw --T.7w-aw

think Judge ' Treadwelr will ask ' for Johnson's release and he certainly will not get It otherwise." Johnson did not leave the jail today. Sheriff . Finn said that the negro was being treated the same as the other prisoners who have money enough to send out for their meals. He has been allowed to leave the Jail, he explained, only when a written order from the court has set forth the reason. "He was allowed to visit his brother, who was said to be very ill In the German hospital," said Finn. "He had an order for the visit. I don't know how sick the brother really Is. Johnson' will set no privileges i from me npt accorded other prisoners, I would Hka to talk with the guard who declared Johnson was allowed to do as he pleased out here. I think Johnson will serve out his term and that wo will not have, any trouble with him for speeding in the future." The fifth was tame. Neither man struck a telling blow and the crowdwas restless. The men spent the fifth feinting and clinching and It was so uninteresting the crowd kept crying for a fight. Packey slammed his left to Kohler's stomach at will, with liohler trying to evade punishment. The crowd by this time was hissing the apparent laydown. . In. the ninth the men mixed it freely, with Packey hitting Kohler at will.McFariand opened up for the first time Jn the tenth, using a right hook effectively on Kohler's Jaw. He followed this with left and right shortarm swings to the stomach. Kohlercame back fighting hard and got past McFarland's guard for two good blows to the face. The rest of the round was spent In clinching and. feinting. RED-YANKEE GAME IS OFF Cincinnati, O., April 4.
