OMAHA, SUNDAY, JT'LT I.
THI'B fur Preatdont O'Neill ha re
fused to be atamperlod by the whlm
perlna: of Pucky Holmes, who
threatens to break up the league
unless Riven permission to run It
aa he sees fit. Of course, no one. who
knowa Ducky ever gave a serious thought
to hla protests, any more than to stamp
them aa the rankest sort of sophistry, but
at the aame time If the president of the
league were to give countenance to the hue
tnd cry raised against Pueblo the matter
would force Itself onto the sorloua consp
iration of all concerned. ' go long as the
:hlef executive maintains the firm attitude
he has taken on thla and elmllar situations
so long will the league continue to be
Itrong and powerful enough to defy all such
Incendiary utterance aa those emitted by
Holme. President O'Neill has struck a
responsive chord In his eprnclatlnn that
Holmea cannot break up the Western
league and that the sooner the league Is
rid of such character the better and the
preldent may be sure of the most hearty
co-operation and support by other cities In
any move on his part to back up uch a
courageous utterance, should auch a thing
ever become necessary. President O'Neill
needs only to atand by the course he so
firmly avowed In hla letter during the
week to The Bee to receive the most
cordlaJ aupport of evi-y decent man In the
Western league. The Western league Is
today admittedly the peer of any other
Class A league, but it could not long re
main so If the Ducky Holmea method were
allowed to prevail and dominate.
Up to Saturday there waa a striking
llmllarity In the National and American
league races. Pittsburg, leaders of the
National, had won fifty-two and lost
thirty-five and Detroit In the American
had won fifty-three and lost thirty
four game, giving It a little the
higher percentage. New York and Chicago
were cloer by a alight margin to Pittsburg
than were St. Louie and Chicago to Detroit,
but the apace between Phlladelohla in the
National and Chicago were slightly wider
than that between Cleveland and the third
team, Chicago, in the American. The firet
team In the last division of the National
la ahead of the corresponding American
team and from" on down there is little dif
Terence In the corresponding standing.
History will be searched In vain to show
'.wo better and more Interesting races than
these two and you make It three by adding
the Western league. '
On the value of a batting team too
much stress cannot be laid, but It Is easy
to go atray In pursuit of the argument
lhat a batting team will win above all
sther elements of strength. Denver Is a
hlntng example of thl. Denver outbata
ill teams In the league away yonder. In
Slvldually and collectively It has the
slugger, but -Denver has' a constant fight
on Ita hands to remain In first division and
haa not once this season proven a danger
ous contender for the pennant. Denver
might easily trade some of Ita powerful
hitter for atronger pitcher. It Is hard
to beat the team that haa the mot effec
tive ' pitcher. Undoubtedly the Chicago''
Cuba would never have won the two pen
nant It did In 1906 and 1907 had It pitch
ing department been weaker and it
batting stronger. ,.'.-.
For the first time since the National
league rank were wrecked by the base
ball war fan of that circuit are enjoying
the experience of a real pennant race.
The remarkable run of sickness and
affliction of the Cubs has so weakened
them that they have dropped down to
ordinary contenders, going a low aa third
place and this makes the race most In
teresting. Ergo, It makes the gate re
celpt more Interesting. But the World's
Champions show signs of recovery from
their wounds and their friends bellve that
when they come back to normal couditlon
and the old fighting spirit asserts Itself
they will not be long In regaining lost
ground and will cinch the third successive
pennant. But they must fight to do It.
Cincinnati haa dropped from the first
division after making auch a sensational
lash to the front, getting within a few
. points once of the Cub when they were
leading. Thl 1 no surprise, although
Clncl will be Conceded much strength. It
has not, however, what appear to be a
pennant contender.
War Bandera haa made himself one of
the moit effective pitcher of the league.
He never pitched better ball than he la
doing this aeaaon. He haa remarkable
control- and that coupled with his cool,
ateady headwork and excellent fielding
make him one of winning alabman of the
league and a tower of atrength to the
Champions.
Detroit, tf It la not going to win that
penant, I certainly making ome oth-r
American league teama feel uncomfortable
on the subject. The Tiger have struck
a gait which aeems desperately difficult
for other teama to match.
After all the Cuba have had scarcely
any worse luck In their pitchers than the
Sox. The Cubs have Brown and the Sox
Walsh and they are the only pitcher who
have been In real winning form.
After those seven rounda with Mr
Kaufmann at Los Argele wonder If
"Battling" Johnson won t change his title
to "Battled" Johnaon.
If Ootch really stays with hi announced
. Intention to retire you may be hearing
soon that one Russian Hon Is raging for
a return match.

CALL OF THE CKiSD CIRCUIT
National Trotting Whirl Begin! To
morrow at Detroit
SEASON LOOKS GOOD AT START
First Stop Down the Mne for Ike
Nqnare stepper and Pacere
Highball and Leghorn's
Faat Mile.
Today the light harness horsemen
drivers, stable hands, owner and grand
stand patrons ere uttering prophecle a
to how fast their favorites may trot or
pace this year or fighting over again the
great race of last season; tomorrow fore
casts and reminiscences will be put away
with mothballs and ell hands will greet
the making of new records at Detroit and
the advent of the Ortnd Circuit of 190X.
Trying to make good will keep the drivers
busy and there will be no more chin music.
The Orand Circuit of 1907 stands out
by the 3-year-old world's record of General
Watts. 2:0, and the 2-year-old marks of
Trampfast. 2:12. and Helen Hale, 2:13'4.
with the development of green trotter,
seven of which entered the 2:10 list
Sonoma Girl, 2:06; .Highball. 2:OR4; Gen
eral Watts, 2:K: Tempus Kugit, 3:07V.
Claty Latus. 2:0R'i: Lotta. 2:vt. and Mar
garet O., 2:04. Three that were prac
tlcally unraced and began the aeason
eligible to the 2:28 class also entered the
2:10 list. They were Carlo, 2:08; Toklo.
2:09, and Beatrice Bellini. 2M, all owned
and bred by W. B. Dickerman, a former
president of the New York Stock exchange,
at his Mamaroneek farm.
What the Youngsters Did.
Eleven 2-year-olds trotted better than
2:30 at Lexington last fall, and with Tramp
fast already Jogging mllea In 2:15 the year's
crop of 3-year-olds should equal Blsa,
who ruihed General Watts In his record
race; Belle Bird. 2:11V4; Miss Densmore.
2:124, and Bonnie Way, timed aa fast.
Many of the 4-year-olds, among them Gen
eral Watte, 2:08, the champion, will not
race this season for lack of Inducements.
There will be enough good ones of that
age In the game, however, to put Into
Jeopardy Cordero's 2:09, the fastest mile
trotted by a 4-year-old last season. Thu
tar. though, to Judge by the way the nags
have been shaping up on the Great West
ern circuit, the horses of developed speed
re to guard the plum from the novice
trotters In the year'a campaign.
Highball, 2:0ii, who reached hla mark
on July 4 at Llbertyvllle, 111., last season
In hi maiden race and took Sonoma Girl
Into camp, has again early speed. At the
Peoria. 111., meeting with Ed Oeers on the
reins Highball won the free for all race
In 2:0fii and 2:03. Geera sent him to the
first quarter In 0:29, the second In 03OV4.
the third quarter in 030. and the fourth
In 0:33, the horse beaten being Margaret
O. and Oro, owned resnectlvelv hv th.
New Yorker. W. E. D. Stoke and Will
lam Kelly. No other horse haa ever trotted
so fast In public before the middle of July,
the second heat being the fastest ever
made In a race, except the first heat
trotted by Cresceus. In 2:03, In hi race
with The Abbot at Brighton Beach In
August, 1901. Highball 1 a high strung
and flellcate horse, Jbut if he keep on his
feet Geer expect to gain 2:01, or better
with the gelding before the fall.
Almost New World's Record.
A seasoned campaigner of 1907. Jack Ley
burn, 2:084. on July 16, at Terre Haute,
also did some .record-breaking. The geld
ing won the 2:09 class, trotting, in straight
beats, with Margaret O as the contender,
in 2:074, 2:06 and 2:04. The latter wna
the fastest third heat ever trotted In a
race, and Lcyburn also gained credit for
the fastest three heata ever trotted by a
gelding. The average was 2:06, only one
third of a aecond slower than the world'a
record established by Allx on the Terre
Haute track In im. Two green horse
to reveal a wonderful flight of apeed at
Peoria were Fleming Boy, who trotted In
2:07V4. and Minor Heir, a pacer, to take the
record of iM. Quite as sensational for
the early Peoria meeting was the consist

rectors came to the sportln decision to

accept a financial loss rather than declare
off the meeting. Six of the early closing
avents. aggregating In value $23,000, will
be made good and a complete four-day
program that may be extended will be
made up. There have been Grend Circuit
