Crown Point larruped Ham-j mond at the county seat and Manager, Kelser has already cut a pole for the pennant. Crown Point has three l games to play one with Gary and two1 with those Rockefeller boys, and feels' like one game sure out of the three, which will annex the rag for the Hub. East Chicago is practically out of it and Indiana Harbor, by winning two games, can give the Kaiserinos some
stiff scrap yet. Indiana Harbor, Oct. 2. East Chi
cago was eliminated from the North-1

Gary won the first game, 11 to 7, while in the second game the East Chicagos quit the field in the fifth inning with the score 5 to 0 against them.

Even Keene, who at Morgan's request had marketed reams of the stock and turned the proceeds of $75,000,000 or $80,000,000 cash over to the Morgan interests seven years before, thought that the duties on steel would be severely cut. And no man paid more for information about such things than Keene.
But Morgan In the winter of 1909 knew perfectly well what kind of a steel schedule would be adopted.

Those Giants played like the Ing champions, all right, in the
game of the series with the Cubs yes
terday afternoon, winning a decisive
victory by a score of 5 to 0 and In
creasiner their lead to a Doint where
they need only three more victories to clinch the flag, even if the Cubs should
win everything left,xn the schedule.
It was a terrific struggle for seven
rounds, neither team being able to get a run, though both were working in
desperation. It was only a question of which one. would weaken first, and in the eighth the break came and it was the Giants who were on top. They drove In two runs and then came back with a still stronger attack In the ninth, getting three more. The Cubs couldn't get one man home during the
entire battle. Rube Marquard completely retrieved himself for his fall in the first game
of the series, for he pitched In magnificent form all the way, giving the Cubs only six base hits all told and keeping the runners far away from the home plate until the closing rounds. On the other hand, "Lurid Lew" Richie, who shut out the New Yorkers in the first game, could not come back, although he did some game and admirable slabbing for seven rounds, holding his own with the tall New Yorker in actual results, even If his work was not as brilliant.

JOHNSON AND WELLS
TO BOX ON STAGE TO DODGE ENGLISH LAW Black Champion and Briton Will Appear in London Music Hall. London, Oct. 2. Jack Johnson and Bombardier Wells, whose battle for the world's championship was called oft by
the government authorities, have arranged to appear in a sparring exhibition at the Weft End music hall. The champion complains that he is the victim 'of race prejudice.

New Y'ork. Oct. 2. Miss Rose Pitinof is only seventeen years old, but she can swim better and farther and faster than most men. The remarkable young woman attracted a good deal of attetion when she attempted what probable was the longest swim ever taken In or around Manhattan. She entered the Hudson River at 232nd street and landed at Coney Island, clear down the
lower bay eighteen miles from ner starting point. She wore a one-piece bathing suit for the swim. Rose learned to swim almost before she learned to read and write, and ehe' has been passionately fond of the water all her life. She Jumped Into fame last summer by the easy manner In whlclt she negotiated a long distance swim at Boston. 1
lng card with him after all' the publiclty their proposed bout was given.". Nothing more has been said about taking the fight to Paris. Evidently, the plan has been abandoned, else Johnson and Wells would not appear In a friendly sparring bout. x "I am a victim of color," said Johnson today. "The real reason they won't let me fight -Is that everybody feels sure I will win. It's a fine thing to be champion under those circumstances. If the English believed Wells could beat me there would have been no opposition. Over In America It's coming to the same thing. I suppose they are waiting for me to get old, so they will be sure I will lose. That Is why I am going to quit."
