RAIN STOPS RED HOPES FOR WIN OVER NEW YORK
Three Games to Be Played in Series, Weather Permitting One Contest Today.
NEW YORK. July 22. Ratn, of the hard and steady variety, continued to hold the Reds out of first place, when It spoiled the double opener at the Polo grounds here Monday afternoon with the Giants. In spite of the downpour, which started before noon, more than 20,000 fans and two eager ball clubs were on the field, clamoring ior sunshine and a game. Manager McOraw called the first Fame out at two o'clock, but ordered that the clubs stay In uniform In the hope that the second contest might bo staged later In the day. The rain showed no signs of stopping, however, at three o'clock, and the fans were disappointed in their desire to witness the league leaders. May Finish Protested Game Red players and fans are still anxious about the decision of President Heydler In regard to the playing of the Pirate game of July 6 over again. Although President Heydler announced that he would not make an official decision concerning the game until next Wednesday, he Intimated that the Reds would be allowed to finish the game from tho 6lxth inning, where It was called on July 6. If this is done, the Reds will be given an opportunity to take an easy step forward in the percentage column. That the Giants are greatly concerned over the work of Pat Moran's crown was noticeable when It became Impossible to play Monday's game. The Giants have been eager to get a peek at the Reds in action since their miraculous climb up the ladder, and were disappointed when old J. Pluvius stopped the contest and all practice Monday. Three Gam; In Series. Manager McGraw announced after Monday's game that he would probably make three games out of this series. He will 8tage a single game on Tuesday, and close the series with a double header on Wednesday. In case
of rain on either of these dates, the gamcsi1'l be played on the Reds' return series on August 13. In case all of the games have to be postponed, some of them will have to be transferred to Cincinnati, as there are not enough open dates, or double header games available on the Red's calendar to stage them all In the east. Newspapers of the east are unanimous in the opinion that the greater part of the credit due Cincinnati's club should go to Pat Moran, manager of the team. Pat has been putting the Reds through their paces in fine t-hape, and has won the admiration of all the league for his clever work in making championship contenders out of the Reds.

Soda Water Tax Repeal
to Save City $40 a Day If the national soda water tax Is re
pealed, eoft drinkers of Richmond
will save approximately $40 a day, in one to four cent lots. No soda tax re
peal petition has been circulated in
Richmond, but according to opinions
expressed, such a petition would not
lack for names. Druggists and ice
cream parlor proprietors insist that Richmond people are not complaining much about the tax. "I have very few people even mention the tax, although occasionallysomeone forgets to pay it and when I jog them up, they pull off a pun on the subject," said a druggist. Doubtless Richmond would rejoice if released from the annoyance and trouble of producing a copper or two extra for each drink, but it soems evident that as they did with other war measures", the people of this city are showing splrlL

Australian Feather After Title; Will Meet Kilbane NEW YORK, July 22. Jimmy Hill, the Australian featherweight champion, who came to this country a month or bo ago for the special purpose of mooting Johnny Kilbane, the American title holder, in a bout for the world's championship, Is taking
things ea3j- and becoming acclimated.
Hill has not pressed KLbane for a
match since bis arrival, for the reason that he does not care to bother the champion as he realizes the terrible
blow suffered by Kilbane when he lost
his little daughter and will not ask
for a match with the featherweight
champion until the latter announces
he is ready to again appear in the ring.
In the mealtime, nothing would suit
the Australian featherweight cham
pion better than to take on any of the stars In the lightweight division, including the champion, Benny Leonard.
Johnny Dundee, Richie Mitchell, Lew
Tendler, Joe Welling or any of the other lightweights would be suitable to Hill, who has taken on a few pounds in weight since his arrival In the city.
The American sporting public is
sure to be treated to an agreeable surprise when it sees the little antipo
dean in action. Hill is the greatest
featherweight Australia has had since the days of Young GrifTo, who is con
ceded to have been the cleverest ex
ponent of ihe art of scf-defense the prize ring ever developed.
