admirers by his great fight against Tim O'Neil last Wednesday night. It seems that Promoter Burge of the Hammond club planned to put Schlossberg and O'Neil right back on the afternoon of Independence day in an open air ring. But the Irondale mauler smashed up one hand so badly trying to beat "Steamboat Phil" that it is doubtful if he will be able to mix it with anybody on the big holiday. So McCoy, who has been building himself up with ,a new system '"M breathing exercises for over a year, has put in his bid for the match. The fighter who invented the famous corkscre wpunch talked with Promoter Burge yesterday afternoon and was
promised the match if O'Neil could not
take It. McCoy Is In Chicago now and
will start light training soon on the
prospect of getting the match.
"I am the best "white hope' In sight right now," said McCoy. "Don't laugh at that. You will be surprised at the wonderful improvement I have made in
my physique and stamina by this new
breathing method. I am almost as good
as I ever was and you must admit that
is pretty good. I honestly believe
can stop Schlossberg if I get this
match."
Managers Nate Lewis and Frank Mulkern, representing Knockout Brown
and Jimmy Clabby, who are to fight
next Thursday night at Hammond, posted forfeits of $100 each yesterday
and Promoter Burge put up a like
amount.
Brown started his training at O'Connell's gymnasium and Clabby has been hard at work In Hammond for several
days. The K. O. scrapper boxed six rounds and did a lot of gym work. He
is working with might and main for

over a fighter like Clabby means fame
and coin for him.

In a regular fence busting contest the White Sox excelled the Speed Boys of Boston yesterday afternoon, driving their star pitcher, Joe Wood, to the shed in the fourth round and winning the battle by the excessive count of 13 to 8. A total of seventeen safe hits were made by Chicago, most of the stampede being confined to the fourth inning, when eight safe drives netted seven runs. Such a result was hardly expected

WELLS MAKES A TAME DEBUT AGAINST CROSS New York, June 3. Matt Wells, the English lightweight, made his debut as Britain's champion in this country last night at the Madison A. C, when he beat Leach Cross In ten rounds. He beat a tough trial horse in Cross, but It was the general verdict that a champion should have shone more brilliantly. All through the battle th Englishman used his left exclusively. It was a good stiff Jab and hurt Cross when It landed. Leach left the ring with two dark-hned optics and a wellbattered Jaw. The boys agreed not to hit in the breakaways, but mlnuta after they started Cross sent one over in direct violation of orders. Referee White was busy throughout the ten rounds

With a full grown lead of six runs and the scalp of one pit i ter dangling from their bats the Cubs tossed off the opening game of the Giant series yesterday by some of the punkest pitching ever seen outside of Punkville, which, for the sake of those whose geography is indefinite, may be localized as a rural free delivery station on a narrow gauge branch of the Pea Vine railway. For four innings it was a giad and Joysome homecoming for Chance's circuit girdling tourists and a fair sized crowd that could not be scared away by threatening weather was in a gleeful mood, because the Cubs had driven Arthur Raymond, nee "Bugs," off the rubber in legs than two innings after an exhibition that was not even near pitching. Also, thes' had accumulated a total of six runs in the aforesaid innings, while King Cole was holding the enemy down to nothing in spite of a rather vague idea of the location of the plate.
