Chicago's proud Cubs regained their championship stride yesterday and hitting the ball in bunches gave the ambitious Giants a decisive beating, atthe same time tear- j ing McGraw's men out of first place and climbing back there themselves. The score was 6 to 2 and the Cubs gained the victory In two distinct attacks, "one in the first and one in the last inning. Each onslaught netted three runs. It was the best game, in one way. that Chance's champions have played on the trip and the boys looked much more like the team of old. There was splendid hitting and base running and a perfect defense at times that was startling. "Lurid Lew" Richie came back a-fter losing Monday's game and he Just breezed through. He was in two or three tight places and twice Jimmy Archer came to his rescue with some of the snappiest kind of Pugging around the bases. He broke up a determined rally by the Giants in the second inning' by picking a runner off second baseband in the next round caught one at first. After that the Giants clung close to the base lines and their daring style " of play was abandoned.

But Boston and New York clubs are bidding for services, and the Dane may go east in a few days to fight. The Armory A. A. at Boston wants to put Bat on with Jimmy Britt, his old rival. Krone and Lichtenstein are eager to land Nelson for a match at Kenosha, and Bat may agree to take somebody on there. The Dan would draw a big crowd at the "Wisconsin town, as it has been years since he showed his tow head in a ring around these parts. , "I am working right along in Hegewisch," Bat said last night, "and am in great shape now, though a little heavy. I'll show these fellows when I get started. The Dane is a long ways from a dead one." They are trying to reopen the game at Racine.

Goshen, Ind., Aug. 24. Thoso ambiti ous White Sox came to the land of Goshen yesterday and went away with a 4 to 2 victory. The margin would have been much .larger, but careless base running cut off at least a half dozen tallies. One-third of Goshen's population, which is around the 9,000 mark, saw the exhibition viewed with delight the fence busting of Ping Bodie and the brilliant Hurling of Olmstead and Young. Ping was made the recipient of a diamond ring on his initial appear ance at the plate. W. J. Galligan of Chicago delivering the presentation speech. Whether or not the, Frisco clouter knows the value of the ring is not known, but it is expected that he soon will learn how his team make have treated him to a cruel joke. Bodie Stars with tfat. ' At any rate, Bodie showed as much appreciation as if It came from a South African mine, for he started In the afternoon's work, poling three doubles in as many times up. On his first ap pearance Pitcher Nelhan , evidently jealous hit him amidships. After that it was slam, crack and swat. , Five dyed in the. wool Sox fans boarded the train at Enjlewood, in eluding Controller John Traeger m Packey McFarland, the latter ace rr at umpire on the bases. The pugilist, however, proved to be as great an at traction as the ball club, for when the team reached Goshen several hundred youngsters yelled out inquisitively "Where is rackey?" At the park McFarland was wildly cheered. Goshen was the first to break Into the run column with one tally in the open ing round. Laru started with a single and took second when Mclntyre heaved the ball to the grand stand in an effort to get him at first pase. Vance hit through, Zeider for a single, Laru stopping at second. Pratt rolled to Olmstead, who got Laru at third. C. Wysing hit a slow one to Olmstead who failed to get the ball In time to retire his man. This put Vance on third and Pratt on, second. Then V. Wysing bounced one to Zeider, wha fielded it cleanly, but was too late to get Vance-a the plate. Williams filed.

AUTO DRIVERS Car Skids Into Official's Ditch on Way to Elgin. SPEED AROUND COURSE. Fast Time Set in Tryouts; Ireland's Body Sent to Parents' Kansas Residence. Two racing drivers and an official of the national races to be held at KIgin tomorrow and Saturday were imperiled yesterday In accidents. Chief Timer Joseph P. Frisbie's ma chine was thrown into a ditch beside the road when he attempted to 'straighten out" after turning to one side. Frisbie was thrown on his back in the mud. "Johnny" Jenkins swung hl.s Cole car wide comln-g; into the back stretch when his steering wheel collided with a mal'i box on a post. His steering wheel was cut in two. Spencer Wishart had just thrown off the speed of his racing Simplex car at Hornbeek's corner when his flywheel broke and smashed the floor to splinters. Frisbie was speeding toward Elgin In a Staver-Chicago, and just before reaching Ontarioville, nine miles outside of Elgin, he ran into a "side road" to pass by John G. Delone, who was running about thirty-five miles an hour. A short distance ahead was a culvert, which compelled Frl6bie to steer up onto the main road at a sharp angle. His speed was such that in attempting to "straighten out" his wheels skidded, throwing the machine into the ditch on the other slde-of the road. The machine mussed Frisbie in the fall, and when Delonsr reached him Frisbie was rubbing his head. He had only strained his forearm. Delong brought him into Elgin in time for the morning trials. ; Wishart had just thrown oft his engine when it struck the pan below, knocking the pan loose. Then it crashed upward against the floor, smashing the wood into splinters and breaking oft the exhaust pipe. The driver found that his pedals still worked, and, rounding the corner steered into the grass at the roadside. Jenkins when swinging into the back sj.retch was unable to avoid the mail box hung on a post, just the height of his steering wheel. The wheel struck It and the post also hit his arm, para lyzing It for the time being. Hisj mechaanician attempted to seize the! half of the wood and aluminum circle that remained, but Jenkins, with his' left hand, still had control, and shutting off his power, stopped at the roadside, f HUGHES A 'WHITE HOPE': TOM HAS A FIST FIGHT . "Long Tom" Hughes, the Chicagoan who pitches for the Washington 'baseball team, broke training yesterday, While drinking in a Clark street cafe Tom became involved in a brawl with an artist. Kdward Johnson. They agreed to go out behind the New Sherman hotel and fight it out. a la Marquis of Queensberry. They" took off their coats and hats, appointed Charles King, another artist, as referee, ffhd went at it. Soon the referee got into the mlxup and assisted his brother ar tlst. The fight attracted so much at tntinn that lice that a big fellow was killing two smi 1: fellows behind the hotel. The poiice arrived in due time and took the trio of battlers to the Harrison street station. A lieutenant there re - marked that he never saw three fellows so" badly mussed up In his life, and that Hughes' right hand looked more like a ham than a pitching mitt. Hughes gave a $50 cash bond and left last night for Detroit with the Washington team. King and Johnson were held. ,. MORRIS SEES "HOPE" LOSE New York. Aug. 24. Joe Jeannette, the colored heavyweight, proved a real dark cloud to the "white hope" aspirations of Dummy Maxon at the Fairmont Athletic club last night. Before the pair of big bruisers had fairly got Into action In the first round the voiceless white invader 4from the middle west was prone on tye canvas, vigorously shaking his head at Referee Joh in intimation that he had quite enough of the dusky boy's game. While the bout was a great disappointment, those who journeyed to the Bronx bad a chance to look over Carl Morrl?, the Oklahoma "white hope." who is hre to meet Jim Flynn in the near future. Morris Is a typical farmer, boy. as bashful as a Bryn Mawr maiden. and blushed a Tegular spectrum when introduced.

In the eighth, ninth and tenth Bronson cut loose and chopped Deshler considera bly, battering his eye and drawing the claret. The best bout on the program was a, ten round affair between Earl Denning of Chicago and Young Hayes of Memphis. It was a good draw', but had a close decision been rendered Denning would have been entitled to a shade because of his clever blocking. Johnny Creely of Brooklyn outclassed Battling Ryan of Chicago, the police stopping the bout in the eighth. CHICK FRASER FANS 14 MEN! Danville, 111., Aug. 24. 'Chick" Fraser, ex-Cub and ex-Pelican, established a new strike-out record for the ThreeI league yesterday, fanning fourteen Rock Island players and winning the game for the home team, 4 to 2. Frank McNichols, owner of the champion west end team of Chicago, who came with Fraser to aid the locals win the pennant, startled the fans with his daring base running. He beat out an infield hit and stole seaond, third and home. A steady drizzle marred the game. YOST SPRINGS GLOOM STORY Coach Fielding H. Yost of the Michigan football eleven, was in Chicago yesterday on a business trip. Yost had the following to say on Michigan's prospects. "Prospects are not of the brightest at Ann Arbor Just now. We will have only five of the old men back this fall, and that isn't much of a foundation on which to build anything. Of course, I wouldn't go so far as to say that I am actually discouraged, but the outlook is gloomy, to s'ay the least." PACKEY MUST CANCEL FIGHT Milwaukee, Wis., Aug. 24. Frank Mulkern of the National Athletic club, which is promoting the Wolgast-Mc-Farland boxing contest scheduled for Sept. 15, today sent word to McFarland that he would have to cancel his bout with Kelly at St. Louis Labor day or give up his chance at Champion Wolgast.
