YOU'VE jot to rive It to Tip O'Neill
at that. He doesn't propos9 to
allow any little thing liko a
meeting of 'club owneri to In
terfere with his rlans for running the
"Western league. He has plans, for he
says so, but he hasn't told anybody any
thing about them, not blnce June, when
tie made his proposition to the players
that they finish out the season at half
pay. What eUe he proposes he keeps
itrictly to himself, and may never let U
te known. However, five of the eight
team owners in the Western have de
cided that Tip s term as president Is at
an end. and no It Is pretty certain that
he will go, peaceably er otherwise.
Frank Iirbell and Jack Holland did not
attend the Omaha meeting, and they are
looked on as O'Neill's sole adherents.
Kbrlght of Wichita wag expected, but
lid not put In appearance. It Is well
understood, thouph, that Wichita will go
nlong with tho majority of the clubs In
thin matter. What Is wanted It a
president who will pay some atten
tion to the needs of the league, who
will be on the Job during the play
ing season at least, and who will
Hive something In service for the salary
lie receives. This, the owners assert,
O'Neill did not do. For example, ho waa
not Inside the Omaha ball park once
during the last season. He knows prac
tically nothing of the local situation, ap
parently cares less. Other towns fared
.bout the same. When the owners of
six of the eight teams sent him a peti
tion, asking him to call a meeting of
the league at Omaha, he declined to mako
the call. It was this that led to the ulti
mate action of the meeting here. The
next president of the Western league
will" be the executive officer of the or
ganization. ,but he will also he respon
sive to the men who employ htm.
Three blistering hot battles at Boston
between the Bed Sox and the Tigers, on
the outcome of which to a large measure
depended the final leadership of the Ban
Johnson league, will do away with the
assertions that the race was not hotly
contested. It may be true that changes
made during the summer resulted In the
lAmerlcan becoming a three-team league,
with only Boston, Petrolt and Chicago
as contenders, but it surely did make
those teams contenders. While they havo
disposed of the lower class opponents
with something of ease, they have had
Dome titanic contests among themselves,
and the fact that both Detroit and Bos
ton were aWe to win from Chicago Indi
cates that the league Is really a two-club
affair. Tho Boston fans acknowledged
the Importance of the match by turning
out Saturday afternoon the biggest crowd
so far soon at a ball park this season,
and almost equalling any World's series
attendance at Fenway park. That Bos
ton has won two of three games In th
closing and apparently deciding series
Justifies the belief of those who have for
weeks been pinning tholr faith to the Red
Sox, and seems to assure the big series
for Philadelphia and Boston again.
Emll Klank has permanently retired
Frank oOtch from the mat and thereby
awarded the championship belt to Hus
sane, but he's pretty decent about It, at
that. He says he'll let Stecher wrestle
with Hussane for a title that changed
hands at Rourke park on the evening
of July 6. You really have to give It to
the promoter, at that.
The roar that has been heard of late
Is .not an echo of any European battle,
but la merely the echo of the Brubdlgna
glan belch emitted by the "red-hota" who
packed the motordome at Brighton Beach
last Saturday to watch Mike Gibbons
and Paokv McFarland stage a very
ordinary boxing contest. ' Some declare
It was a hippodrome, pure and slmplo;
several of the best known of New York
sporting writers. Including "Tad" Dor- j
gan, do not mince their words In calling I
It a fake show. About the beat any of
them give It Is a tame sparring match,
and the division of opinion as to who
should be ueclared winner Is another fac- j
tor that adds to the big gob of dlsap-
potntment that must be swallowed by the j
X.000 who made up a fat little gate of j
167.000 for the promoters, from which tho I
foxy boys who toyed with one another
in the ling received $32.Gi)0, leaving only a
paltry JK 000 for Urn promoter to pay all
his expenses, which must have reached to
something like $7,000. P. T. Barnum
surely was right, and they are so numer
ous now that one wonders If the birth
rata hasn't Increased.
Jert Curley was at the motordome last
Saturday night to watch the fanning bee
between Mike and Packy, and h!s heart
must have sunk when he compared the
crowd with the one he fsced at Chicago
on that famous Labor day.
Down m New York they're trying to
find some one to go against Jess Wll
lard. Anybody will do. If they'll Just
hurry up, before the producing public
finds what's going on.

with the White Sox. He had them up
there fighting most of the way, and

Crawford of Wahoo Always Fit,
Declares Tuthill, Tigers' Trainer
By DtMOS BCXYOIT.
"Of all the athletes I've ever had any
thing to flo with base ball players, foot
ball players, fighters, track men, and
all the rest I think tho greatest for
keeping himself In physical trim la that
old boy up there at the plate," said Harry
Tuthill, trainer of the Ifetrolt Tigers, and
of the Army foot ball team, at the Polo
grounds yesterday afternoon.
He pointed to Sara Crawford, fight
fielder of the Tigers, who stood swinging
a heavy bat hands close together at the
very tip of the email end legs straddled
well apart, and his burly shoulders drawn
well back; an attitude that is the em
bodiment of the greatest batting force,
so far as driving power Is oonoemed, that
Is known to base ball.
"I've been handling athletes) of one kind
and another for over twenty-five years,"
continued Tuthill. "I was with some of
the greatest fighters the ring hasi ever
known. Including Jim Oorbetti Oeortre
McFadden, a boy who never got all the
credit he was entitled to Young Corbett,
and scores of others. I was with tho
