When Matty Mclntyre went back into the dark recesses of right field last night and made a spectacular one handed juggling ; catch of Shotten's long drive, termtnat- j ing a long day's toil, he completed a double victory for the White Sox at the! expense of the St. Louis Browns and hoisted Chicago into fifth place, if that is any satisfaction. The scores were 7 to 6 and 2 to 0, seven innings. Darkness terminated the battles, which were grouchy scrap's all the way. Both teams were delayed in getting here, a railroad wreck near Springfield forcing their train to make a long detour and to finish on the rails of a rival road. They were five hours behind time when they got here and had to hustle like blazes to get to the grounds In time to start their double header twenty minutes after the advertised hour, and there was only a broiler buf fet on the train to furnish., food for forty-five hungry athletes. Everybody went practically without either break fast or luncheon, and it was no wonder the players yapped at the umpires,- at each other, and everything else that happened to cross them all afternoon.

New York at Boston (two games). Cincinnati, O., Sept. 12. Ed Reulhach was In form when the Cubs and Reds resumed warfare yesterday, and the Reds couldn't score. The Cubs made two brief but spirited attacks, getting one run each time and won the game nicely, 2 to 0. It was the second time in a week that Big Ed has blanked the Cincinnati team. All the ginger they displayed in the last two games up in Chicago died before Kd had pitched to them three innings. The only time they really threatened the big twirlcr was in the eighth, when a couple ot scratcli hits were made in succession with only one man out. Kd pitched himself out of that hole nicely -without letting one of the men get to third base. . It now seems probable that the erratic pitcher who has won such renown in other years but who was on the verge ot collapse this season is going to hold his old time form for the finish of( the Nationalleag ue race and probably pitch the pennant into Chicago. By Reulbach's clean cut and decisive victory the champions gained a half lap on the proud New Yorkers and are again only a game and a half from the top. None of the batters bothered Reulbach much, not even "Hobby" Moblitzel, whose home run clouting busted up the two final games of the Chicago series 'Hobby" died tour times yesterday on easy fly balls. SAYLOR AND TROTT SIGNED Milwaukee, U is., Sept. 12. Young Sayior of Indianapolis and Sammy Trott of Columbus, O., were matched here today to meet in New Orleans Sept. IS for ten rounds.

Mulkera Explains WhyContest Will pe Staged. Milwaukee,, Wis.. Sept. 12. The following statement was issued by Promoter Frak Mulkern last night: The ntalenients made in the newspapers as to giving the cxblbition on Sept. 15 have arisen as tbe result of a nei-ie of mlHunderMtandlngn as to the facta. Klght'ag for priaen Is prohibited In Wiseonain and always has been. The late Judge Brazee, In test ease brought before him to establish a working rule, held that a ten round. no-deHsion boxing; exhibition with nothlnjg contingent on tbe result was not In violation of the law. This Is what we orlerinally proposed to, give In the way of an entertainment and we hare taken the matter up wrlth the various authorities concerned, expect no Interference. The show will be held as scheduled. U. S. NET TEAM LOSES DOUBLE, TO BRITONS Dixon and Beamish Take 3 Straight Sets from Bundy n and Little. New York, Sept. 12. By outp&yingj the American players, Bundy and Little, the British team, Dixon and BeaTT ish, this afternoon won the third event in the international tennis preliminary series. Three sets only were played, as the Knglishmen won In straight sets, 6-.1. 7-r. c-4. ' This leaves the point score of the series 2 to 1 In favor of the Americans. "Though it was generally conceded that the Knglish team was formidable in doubles, it was a great surprise that the Invaders should have won as easily as they did. Not that the match was entirely at their disposal at any time. Little and Bundy were playing hard all the time, but their combination work did not approach that of the Britons. ' AVhat occasioned the most surprise of all was that Dixon and Beamish, who were reputed to be entirely Inexpert at the volleying and net game, displayed superior and unexpected ability there. They were more accurate in their driving and placing, but above all excellent in "getting the batl hack." What little betting was done was nt S to 5. with Bundy and Little favorites. Little and Bundy can attribute much of their loss to costly nets. Little's offenses were Especially noticeable in this department. The deciding matches in singles will be played tomorrow. CARL MORRIS MAKES A HIT New York, Sept. 12. The Carl Morris-Jim Flynn contest, which will be held at Madison Square Garden Friday night, is attracting much attention among fight fans. The Oklahoma railroad engineer is training at Jimmy De Forest's camp in Allenhurst, N. J.-, and several hundred sporting men from New York are present dally to see him go through his paces. Morris was seen in action today, and everybody present agreed that he Is just about all that has been said of , him and may be some more. He went three rounds each with Morris Harris and Al Benedict, and both men were all in before the last rouAl was finished. A large crowd went to see Fireman Flynn at his camp at Johnson's roadhouse. The Impression he left was that if Morris survived his attack the Oklahoman must be regarded as the fellow Jack Johnson must

Promoters Hopeful of Staging Go, But Sheriff Remains Obdurate; Both Sides Confident.

Milwaukee, Wis., Sept. 12. Doubt and uncertainty prevail, in sporting circles as to whether the Wolgaat-Mc-Farland ten round bout will be staged Friday night as scheduled. Just why there should be any doubt is not apparent in view of the statement of Sheriff Arnold that he will arrest the fighters if they attempt to enter the ring and not ai they leave it. But the sporting enthusiast naurally is a hopeful bird and still thinks everything will be "fixed up." Gov. Francis McGovern. who is at Spring Lake, N. J., will not interfere with the local authorities. Acting Gov. Morris at La Crosse says that he thinks the bout would be a violation of the law and that he will be in Milwau fight at some time near at hand. Flynn made a veritable chopping block of his three sparring partners, Walters, Williams and George Smith: U. S. SPRINTER WINS TITLE; Milwaukee. Wis.. Sept. 12. Word was received here today from Australia that Charlie Holway, an American sprinter, won the world's professional i championship, beating Trembath in the quarter mile in :50 4-5. and defeating Arthur Postle, Australian, in the 120yard dash in 12 7-10 seconds.

The promoters make positive statements that the affair will take place and that no law will be violated.

The advance sale already has reached $50,000. Then there Is the mysterious person who has "inside information." . An official statement that everything -Is all right is scheduled for tomorrow.
