WHITE RETURNS , FROM SYRACUSE
Charlie "White, fresh from hia triumph over Owen Moran, received a hearty greeting from Chicago admirers on his arrival home yesterday. Charlie said that Manager- Nate Lewis stayed in Xew York in the hope of arranging a champion featherweight match with Johnny Kilbane, the Cleveland colt. "I would have stopped Moran had he not persisted in fighting a foul battle," said White. "He was outclassed from start to finish and did everything but kick In his effort to injure, me. He took
a fine lacing Just the same, and will carry marks of the encounted for some time to come. "I wonder what they think of me now out in Loa Angeles, where they have been panning me ever sice I made a poor fight against Danny Webster? They were figuring on getting Moran out there to box my brother Jack, but I guess they won't send for Owen now. "If I can't induce Kilbane to mingle with me In the east, I would like a chance to Jump to Los Angeles and take a crack at Joe Rivers. Out there they declare Rivers is good enough to send against Wolgast. Well, if Rivers gives me a fight first, I'll get the Wolgast match. Just say that Charley White is in the race for two championships, the featherweight and the lightweight." We'll have to hearken to White's - talk, all right. It took Wolgast thtrteen rounds to beat Moran, and McFarland failed to hurt him much In ten.
White had Owen all but in when the foul blow came In the ninth. Charlie
. Is boxing like a champ and no mistake. f - - - THE HOME NEWSPAPER OF LAKH COUNTY IS THE COMPLIMENT BEBTOWED BY ITS READERS ON TH1 TIMES,

"BAN JOHNSON EGOTISTICAL AND
STUBBORN" COBB
Detroit, Mich.. May 23. "Ban John
son is the most egotistical, the most
overbearing and the most stubborn pet
son in baseball today, and his attack
upon the Detroit players and myself
was most unwarranted," said Ty Cobb upon arriving home from Washington
today.
"Johnson cannot harm me by keeping
me out of the game. He only harms the Detroit team," continued Ty. "My salary goes on Just the sama. He said that had It not been for the strike I
probably would have been reinstated In time for the Saturday game. That
was only a bit of byplay.
"Johnson haa no intention of reinstat
ing me. If he had done so he would
have demonstrated that he was wrong
in first action, because he would not
have had time to Investigate the merits
of the case."

Indianapolis, Ind., May 23. The mys
terious No. 26 In the list of entrants in the coming five hundred mile race at the Indianapolis speedway, whose iden
tity has been the cause of much con
jecture among the followers of the
speed cars, has been uncovered. Mysterious No. 26 Is another privately owned Buick, although U has been reconstructed to such an extent that the name may be a misnomer. Charles
Shambaugh of Lafayette Is the owner
and redesigner of the car. which Is expected to arrive at the speedway today
or tomorrow for Its first speed trials. Even now Shambaugh is not certain the car will be ready for the big race.
The reconstructed car his six cylin
ders, while the racing cars, when the
Buick company was In the game, had
only four. It was Shambaugh's original intention to put two motors In his race car, one for the front and one for the rear wheels, but he found that this arrangements would cause him trouble
In steering, and the plan was abandoned. He Is an expert mechanic, and In his automobile repair shops at Lafayette he has spent months on the car.
Nine months ago he decided to build
a race car, using an old racer as a nuc
leus. He received no encouragement from the Buick factory, however, which
made every effort to dissuade him. He
made several trips to the factory at
Flint, and on his first trip was refused
six connecting rods, when, he says a
carload could have been placed at his disposal. As a result he made patterns and constructed many of the parts In his own shop. For one piece of machinery he spent $1,600. Shambaugh's car has the appearance of an old model 16 racer. Its radiator was taken from a model 17, as were also Its cylinders and cams and Its rear axle was used in a former model 16 racing car. Its valve levers and brackets are from a model 26. The performance of this Lafayette car will be watched with Interest in its trial work and in the big race if Shambaugh gets
it ready to face the starter. It is not
known who is to drive the car.
If this car Is started two privately owned Buicks will be in the race. Billy Liesaw, with his privately owned model
16 racer of the vintage of 1910, is satisfied with his practice work and believes he will cut some figure against the newer cars. He also entered the contest against the wishes of the Buick
company, which has prmanently quit
the racing game. Ralph Mulford, who has been drlv
lng overland from Springfield, Mass., In the Konx car, which he will pilot In the
race, telegraphed here last night that he expected to arrive In Indianapolis late this afternoon. He stated that he had already knocked the kinks out of
his car on the road and was ready for some fast work on the speedway after his arrival here. Mulford Is expected
to make a good showing In the race.

the game was in such an unsettled stat
