THREAT TO CALL OFF CLABBY 60 BALKS SAILOR Petroskey Forced to Accept Ben Selig as Referee for Friday Scrap.
San FranciBco, Oct. 2.; The Sailor PetroskeyJlmmy Clabby match Is on again, and the middle-weights will swap wallops In a twenty-round battle at the Eighth street arena on Friday evening. Such was the statement issued this afternoon by Promoter Jim Coffroth and Louis Farente, manager of the former tar. They held a long conference, at the conclusion of which Par-
ente agreed to accept Benny Selig as referee. This ended the discussion, so j all Is well.
Yesterday Parente informed Coffroth ! wln be taKi-
that Selig would not suit the sailor. More than one reason was advanced. To begin with. It was stated that Selig had spoken disparagingly of Petroskey's abilities a& a pugilist after seeing him In action with Bob McAllister. Another reason was that Petroskey thought Selig showed poor judgment when he decided the Tommy Murphy-One Round Hogan contest a draw. In Petroskey's opinion Murphy should have been hailed as a winner. Coffroth rebelled at the Idea of reopening the referee question at this late hour and Parente remained stubborn, saying that some man other than Selig would have to be chosen. CofTroth finally decided that the match would be called oft unless Petroskey changed his views. The sailor and his manager were given a time limit in which to accept Selig, and if they had decided not to do so Clabby would have been put on with Frank Logan on October 10. However, they concluded not to balk.

TOLEDO TROUNCES WEARIED: TROJANS IFi SLOW GATtlc, 6-1 . . aaaaajaaaaaaaaaa .. - - - ' s Stack and Watson Prove Easy for Mudhens; Collamore Puzzles Cubs. it -
Toledo, O.. Oct. 2. Nothing could make the Cubs rampant yesterday. They played ball like a lot of fagged out tail enders. and Toledo simply gal
loped away with a victory, 6 to 1. The
j Cubs weren't much In the fight at any
time, and It could not be noticed that any of themcare d' a rip. Eddie Stack and "Doc" Watson attempted to hurl, but neither had anything that Toledo, hadn't mastered long ago in American association games. On the other hand, young Mr. Collamore. who was on the slab for Toledo, was dealing out just about the same brand of stuff as the Cubs face
! In an average National league combat.
The Trojans made only seven scattered hits. Then the' Cubs blew Into small bits in the fteldng end of the game for some unknown reason. Five times they were guilty of errors and never once pulled any of the sparkling stuff that the . natives expected of such famous
athletes. Plainly the Cuba are sick and tired of this mad little jaunt, riding every night in bumpy cars and picking up their rest In small portions.
MILWAUKEE HOLDS SOX CREWJO DRAW Game Ends After Overtime Sessions With Cals'Run- 5 ning to Catch Train.
Milwaukee, Wis., Oct. 2. The champion Brewers of the American association were given a big sendoff yesterday when they traveled to a draw with the Chicago White Sox in a burlesque exhibition game. , The final count, with the shades of night falling all around, was 3 to 3 in ten innings. The Sox had to run for a train to Chicago. The burlesque part of the entertainment . was furnished by Umpire Dunn, who proceeded to shut his eyes when making decisions. The , exact number of Dunn's boots were not totaled, and owing to the fact that this was' an exhibition game these errors are kindly omitted from mention in this story of the battle. The Brewer also did some booting, handing the major leaguers the first two runs scored by Callahan's men. .
ATHLETICS NOW 10 TO 9 CHOICE IN BETTING , Philadelphia, Oct. t.-r-Betting on the result of the world's, series became brisk ysterdjv with the Athletics on therlog end -ef -the odds of 10 to 9. Several bet ranging from 150 to 200 were -made 'at these figures . at the Bingham House- and at Green's hotel, the local bettors claiming to have inside Information that Mack has something up his sleeve In the pitching line that has not been revealed. What this something is they refused to say. Much of the local money has been sent to New York, where they can obtain odds of 10 to , wtth the Athletics on the short end. The "wise" money that always looks for a percentage apparently will not be placed on the series this year, so far as the Philadelphia bettors, are concerned.,

MICHIGAN CLEANS UP SCRUB TEAM Ann Arbor, Mich., Oct. 2. Disgusted by their recent showing, the members of the varsity squad in a short stcrimmage yesterday afternoon scored two touchdowns and displayed more "pepper" than they have shown at any time this season. Benton, the big full back, had to leave the game with a bag muscle bruise on his back, and Lyons was shifted to full. It is not thought that Benton's, injury is serious. , Quarter Back Hughitt scored both touchdowns after Benton, Catlett and Bentley had carired the ball within scoring distance by line plunges. Only one forward pass, was attempted and
it was a failure. Cecil Skinner of -Brookings, S. D., freshman quarter back, had his shoulder broken yesterday afternoon and will be out of the game the rest of the season. Catlett and Bentley both showed up well at half, while for the second team James, Luther, Lichter and Quinn starred.
PURPLE LINE WEAK; NEW COACH ENGAGED In a" last attempt to strengthen the Northwestern line, another coach 1 has been added to the purple squad. The new arlval is E. J. Moulton, who played tackle on the University of Chicago team four vears ago. Moulton was on the field yesterday, and, with Coach Scribner, gave the
linemen a long session with the charging maclne. Scrimmage with the freshmen has disclosed that the line would not hold enough to protect the plays which Coach Grady will use against Lake
Forest Saturday. The varsity was tinable to make more than one touchdown in twenty minutes. If the line can be strengthened before Saturday, Coach Grady hopes to be able to pile up a good score against the smaller school. The back field were practiced on the forward paMi during a good share of yesterday's practice. "Red" Whlttlo, who has been shifted from half back to end, shows the best In this line.
FEW WAGERS ON WORLD'S SERIES New York. Oct. 2. Betting on the world s series has been light In New York, but few wagers have been laid
at even money. One bet was recorded here at odds of 4 to 5 that Mathewson would pitch the first game. Another bet was reported at even money that Demaree would win his first game. A third bet was that the series would go six games. This bet also was at even money. One Giant enthusiast offered 1. to 4 that the Giants would win the first three games, but found no takers. -Infinite were the variations on which the early bettors laid their money. One man bet even money that the Athletics would make more runs during the total games than the Giants would. Another offered even money that the Athletics would lead In hitting.
