HORSES ARRIVE AT EMERYVILLE: DAN PATCH GAMELY PACES MILE IN 1:56*1/4: PORTLAND WINS FROM SEALS
Champion Cubs and Angels May Play Series
DETROIT, Oct 13. — If the present plans of Henry Berry, manager
of the Los Angeles team of the Pacific coast league; CalEwing, presi
dent of the league; Manager Frank Chance of the champion Cubs and
Battling Nelson, champion lightweighi of the world, carry, the Cubs
and the Angels will meet soon in a series of seven games on the coast.'
Ewing and Berry believe that Los Angeles can " beat Chicago and arc
willing to bet $15,000 on them. Nelson and Chance will take the other
end of the bet.
All Detroit and Chicago are talking over the prospects of the
series, and it is believed that the games will be arranged if everything
goes well. Chance and Nelson have already deposited forfeits of
$5,000 to show their good faith, and they will meet Ewirig and Berry,
tomorrow morning, when the latter will show the color of their money.
If the games are arranged they must be played on the Pacific coast
for the reason that the cold weather in Chicago would not permit of
their taking place there. Berry seems as confident of victory as Chance,
and Ewing says he will back him to the limit.
Chicago Takes the Third Game From
Detroit in Championship Series
DETROIT, Oct. 13. — Chicago crept one game closer to th£
world's baseball championship today by defeating Detroit, 3 to 0.
Chicago has now won three games of the series, as compared with
the one annexed by Detroit at Chicago yesterday. Eddie Summers,
Detroit, and Mordecai Brown, the premier pitcher of the Chicago
team, opposed each other and the latter had all the better of the
argument, although Summers pitched excellent ball in all but one
inning. In the third Summers passed two on balls, some of which
seemed to the crowd to be very much like strikes. He was cutting
the corners in whirlwind fashion, and an inch either way would
have changed the umpire's verdict.*
Chicago got two men on bases in the
first and one in the second without the
situation growing precarious. In the
third, after Sheckard and Evers, as a
result of the sprightly efforts of Cough
lin and Schaefer, had been retired. Sum
mers wavered ever so little, and Schulte
was presented with standing room on
the initial bag. The tall Chicago right
fielder promptly concluded to try out
Schmidt's throwing arm. Said arm
was tried and found wanting. Schmidt's
unsuccessful throw to second was the
first of four similar failures. Chance,
the next man up. was also allowed to
walk despite the strenuous objections
of the Detroit battery, to say nothing
of j the crowd. Singles by Steinfeldt
and Hofman- followed, sending Schulte
and Chance across the plate. Stein
reldt took third and Hofman second
during the process of run getting, but
the best Tinker could do was a ground
er to O'Leary. who threw him out.
CHICAGO'S FINAL Rfx
Chicago's next and final run occurred
in the ninth, when Winter took Sum
mers place in the box. The change in
seasons made no difference to Chicago.
With two out, Evers singled to left
and stole second, coming home on
Chance s single to right.
Detroit threatened to score only
once - Jn the fourth inning Brown
found himself in a pretty hole when
s ngles by O'Leary and Crawford placed
those men respectively on second and
first bases with none out. Captain
Chance left first base, and Joe Tinker
came over from short to confer with
Brown. If the conference concerned
the handling of an expected bunt It
was sueesstul. Cobb. the Detroit right
fielder, who batted so strenuously yes
terday, came to bat and bunted. The
ball rolled steadily toward Brown, who
rushed up to it and without even loffk
ing at first shot It on a line to third
just in time to force O'Leary out.
Crawford meanwhile had taken second
on the play. He is known locally as
the "Old Reliable." It is said of him
that he may be depended on to do the
-right thing at the right time almost
invariably. Taking a lead off from
second, the "Old Reliable" for once in
his life did the wrong thing at tho
wrong time. He chose this occasion
to refresh himself with the traditional
40 winks. This was some 35 winks too
many. Kling observed the runner's
somnolent expression and the violent
efforts of Joe Tinker to attract atten
tion without making a noise.
CRAWFORD IS RETIRED
The Chicago backstop swung his arm
powerfully and the ball shot down to
Tinker on a line, rudely disturbing the
rest of Crawford, spoiling Detroit's
only chance to score and perceptibly
depressing the spirits of the spectators.
Crawford retired to the "bench very
crestfallen, for where there had been
men on bases with an excellent chance
of scoring, now were two out. with
only Cobb at first. Cobb started to
steal second at the same time that
Umpire Connolly called a third strike
on Rossman. Presumably Kling did
not hear what the umpire said, for he
threw to Evers and Klem called Cobb
out The play, however, did not count,
as Rossman had already made the
third out.
In the fifth inning Coughlin was hit
by a pitched ball, but. got no further
than first. In the sixth. O'Leary got
his second hit, but was- immediately
doubled. In the. next three innings
Detroit •went out — one, two, three.
The pitching of Brown was clearly
up to his usual standard. His only
wildness was in hitting CougbMn. He
allowed four hits, two of -.which \u25a0 went
to O'Leary -and two to Crawford, one
of the latter's being a double. He
struck out four men. besides accepting
four fielder's chances in perfect style.
While the crowd today was larger
than that which turned out to view
the opening struggle of the series here.
It was not so large as had been ex
pected in view of the Detroit victory
yesterday. The, turnstiles registered
J2.907 paid admissions, from which the
. gross receipts were . 119.231. The
ground - immediately In front of the
grandstand was still muddy from Sat
urday's play, but the diamond was In
good condition and the weather was
ideal for spectators and players. The

Bat Nelson Says Chicago
Cubs Spell Class
Battling Nelson
DETROIT, Mich., Oct. 13. — Class,
class, class — that's just what the
Chicago Cubs spell. They certain
ly showed in Bennett's park today
that they had an off day at the
West Side park in Chicago, when
they allowed the yellow striped
animals to wallop them into sub
mission. r '~ '-::'
The Cubs shied their castors in
the ring, sending Sheckard to the
plate. Summers led at Sheckard,
who pummeled a right over to
Rossman and was put out at" first.
Again Summers led to Evers, who
hammered him hard to Cobb, who
put him down for the count. By
the way the Tigers started to eat
up the Cubs it looked as though '
they were going to repeat the
class they showed at Chicago, but
Shulte stepped to home and coun
tered on the first lead and went
flying to first and stole second on
the first move. Then again on the
next advance he stole third. Hero
it commenced to look as though
the class was becoming evident,
as the om reliable Frank Chance
toed the scratch and walloped
hard through short, making first
cleverly. Steinfeldt danced up and
sent a hot shot right square into
Rof sman'.-s midsection and was
counted out. ]
In the second round the . Cubs
took things easy. Hoffman stepped
up, sparring for wind, and "blowed
up" after a couple of punches and
was counted out at first. Tinker
led hard to O'Leary, who 'blocked
splendidly and smothered him at
first Kling landed and drew first
blood, making a nice single. The
wonderful Brown went to the bat,
the timers/ boing apparently grog
gy, but landed a hot blow on
Brown and put him down for the
count. Evidently the Tigers were
showing class at this stage or* the
game. Sheckard stepped up ap
parently fresh, made one lead,
which was cleverly blocked, and
he retired for clever littlo Evers,
who sparred for wind, but landed
light to short and was cleverly
blocked and counted out at first.
Big Shulte toed the scratch de-
termined to do or die. Stammers
eeemed somewhat nervous and
feinted about a bit, and Shulte
walked to first. Now the old re
liable Captain Chance stepped up
more determined than ever to
grasp the championship, but Sum
mers also, seemed afraid to let him
land. While Summers was spar
ring, big Shulte did a hotfoot for
second, while Chance was trotted,
off, to first without >an effort.
Then Steinfeldt cantered up and
smashed a hard ope to left, and
the Tigers again became groggy
at. this stage of the game, while
Shulte trotted home,^ Hoffman
came up and nailed a beauty, over
to left, assisting Chafice to his
corner, making the second score
for the Cubs. After this round
Summers did very clever.work and
had the Cubs sparring for, wind
and apparently very tfred until
the ninth and final round, where
he began to break ground. Then
the. ; cubs. commenced to bore in
toward the end' of the round.'. lit- ,
tie Evers scoring the knockout,
running up' another score for the
day, and practically clinching; the
gamis.^and the world's.-champion-
Bhip, r*>night say,': for 1908.
The Tigers seemed to be utterly
outclassed, with" only one excep
tiont which . was in the : fourth
round, when they . danced around
rather cleverly, - blocking jabs,
swings, hooks and even the deadly
uppercuts, but the Cubs seemingly
a bit /worried,* took the' Tigers by
the tail, gjving it a quick twist
and making' them squeal for help.
From this time on they were out
classed from start to finish, .J and
apparently never had a look in
with the ; champion Cubs.

toss it away and -consequently Portland
managed^- to grab -all its runs very
easily. \u25a0, ~
lt,was;a clean blank for San Fran
cisco ; save in the eighth- inning, when
an unexpected rally netted three tallies.
Griffin led this with ~a two. sacker to
left, advancing on Mohler's -Tfly out to
right. < Hilde was passed and Zeider
registered the Seal pitcher by- wallop
ing safely to left. Both the others ar
rived after Bodie met the ball for a
neat single to left. SmBI
The Beavers. started early and were
on. the Job most of the time. They got
their first two runs without the assist-,
ance of- anything that • bore close re
lationship to *a base hit. Ryan landed
on Zeider's . error and ' McCredie bunted.
Curtis .'heaved: the -ball ".to the, most re
mote corner, of right and Ryan came in.
A sacrifice fly by. Bassey put McCredie
over from third. ..'' •:.'
The fourth "produced three more for
the slugging -.Beavers.'. -Madden, opened
with a single and Garrett drew a four
spot. Casey forced the : latter, at sec
ond, butCooney made , up for this de
ficiency i with' a triple, to right: that- was
good enough. .^ to chase both men
through. While-Griffin was still pon
dering; Johnson stung him. for a single
and-.the third run.was there \u25a0- '
Portland^ sustained .its gait in . the
fifth by adding another one. With one
down,. McCredie -walked and breezed
around ' to ; third .on . Bassey's • single.
Madden' laced a fast one down to Grif
fin and while, the "latter was busily
engaged in fielding; his' man out at
first I ; the " Beaver, captain sneaked- in
and the score was. 6 to 0-ln favor of
his henchmen. • . ,
After the Seals had "managed to put
th ree across V, in the eighth. McCredie
gave his men "the distress , office and
they soon -landed' .with another, run.
Danzig. .started, it, off with a. clean
single' to - center field.. On the' next
ball hit to center Beck made a. poor re
turn toss in and Mac, advanced to
second. • Ryan's bingle \u25a0to \u25a0 center a mo
ment later aided him in scoring. ' . - '
San Francisco had a grand chance to'
ftitho.r: break.' it ; .:up .or .make- it a' tie
in the last half of the ninth, but Mohler
hitvinto^a double: and crabbed- the .lay
out. .The sacks: were", loaded with -but
one .'down when the Seal captain laced
a -hard- liner -right into ''the mitts, of
Ole: Johnson, who quickly touched .third
base and then everybody. went home.' .
'^Portland' played far and away the
better.baU atevery angle of the game
and the victory was nothing more than
the 1 due of * the- northern 'aggregation:
The iSeals were slow and dopey all . the
time and did notiseem to care whether
they gotiinto the: game or not. Out

man's Fast Division
J. R. Jeffery
-The' San Francisco division of the big
stable that R..L. "Thomas, the wealthy
Kentuckian, will^r'ace in California this
season reached Emeryville yesterday
from Arcadia in charge of George Reed,
who will train and race the horses here.
The shipment consisted of 12 horses,
mostly' of good class. Besides threw
yearlings the string includes, C. .W.
\u25a0Hurt. Aunt Aggie, Pops, County Clerk,
Lady Irma, Chipmunk, Priceless Jewel.
Hampass. and Billy Bowlegs. Light
Woot, the best horse in the Thomas
stable, -will be shipped here later, on.
Thomas' Arcadia string is made up of
about 25 horses and is in clrarge of
Henry McDaniel.
\u25a0becretary Treat of the local jockey
club received notice yesterday from
Albert Simon that he would be obliged
to abandon his proposed • California
campaign for the reason that his best
horse had gone wrong on the Xew
lork tracks since he made application
tor *_ stable room., at the Emeryville
Frank Weir, who will bring the great
sprinter Roseben , to the coast, wires
that luv will have 12 horses In his
Emeryville string instead of the 10 that
he had previously planned to ship.
\u25a0\u25a0_ Handicapper Martin. Nathanson ,has
finished his missionary work in the in
terest or the Emeryville meeting in
£.ew York and has returned to his
home in Chicago to spend a few days
before returning to the coast. He plans
to arrive here next Tuesday to take up
the work of getting ready for the open-
Ing of the season.

Siii !k that he bad Pnrchased Angelas for him.
Hildreth wired back instructing Taylor not to
take the horse unless the deal was actually and
irrevocably concluded. Nothing further has been
heard from Taylor. Angelus is a mighty good,
horse, but Hildreth figures that he already haiT
as many mature horses on. the coast as he
can use to advantage this winter
Several of HUdreth** good horses were breezed
along at the Emeryville track yesterday morning.
Dandelion covered a quarter In 24 seconds, with
little . apparent effort and acted as , though he
could have done appreciably better had the
<X ' ( ; i as ' on required. If fast track conditions pre-
J"' 1 Dandelion, may be Hildreth's dependence ln
the Opening handicap. - Meelick also breezed a
Slow quarter. There Is no chance of this horse
or Lnele being ready for the opening^ Both of
them are • being given a " slow, careful "prep"
after their summer's let up. ' Tony. Fausfs legs
have filled up somewhat as a result of his recent
fall, but Htldr^th has hopes that it 'ls only a
temporary condition and that the horse will be
available for early racing.

T,, Tra [ ner^ \u25a0 TV - E - Co «on has added Woolma.
Blanche C. and a brown yearling colt by Hamil
ton-Cricket to the string that he has in train
ing at Lmeryvllle. These horses spent the sum
mer, at- Brentwood. and like others that have
come from that place look exceedingly well.
Trainer Cotton » has been advised that Colonel
Applf gate will immediately ship to the coast
the /horses he has been buying in Kentucky.
The shipment will consist of six I mature horses
and - five yearlings. Wool Sandals, which sbas
been winning on the Kentucky tracks ln the
colors of W. J. -Young. Is In reality the property
of Colonel Applegate and^,wlll be Included ln
his big string here this winter. -

mile with Dick Welles and Klamesha 11, has re
turned, to his home in -Oakland from a success
ful hunting trip In th« wilds of northern Cali
fornia, whither " he went at the close of the
Seattle meeting. On Saturday Jackson will de
parr for_ Arcadia.' where bis -stable Is already
quartered. Fern L probably will be shipped here
from the sonthera track to run in several of
the. Lmeryvillo' stakes if she retains the nigh
class form that she displayed ,at The Meadows.
W?J? TEd<lleT Ed<lle D 0D 0 ? 811 will spend the winter In

Joyner of the Whitney sUble to England. With
his brother Willie, the former jockey, and his

On account of . the suspension which his rough

Unholz Selects Training
Gamp in Alameda
Cyclone Thompson Will Arrive
Today and Begin Work
for Coming Battls
T. P. Msgilligan
For the first time in at least two>
weeks, Charley Lercari. match maker
of the~ Pacific rathletic club, rtssted
easy yesterday. With perfect assur
ance that his card was secure, Ler
cari wore a smile that indicated peace
of mind that he has not known before
since taking up the, rather precarious
labors of a tight promoter.
Lercari s«nt,.lJoer Unhotz over to
Croll'a gardens in Alameda yesterday,
and tho South African champion will
do his training at tu.it camp. Unholz
will begin Hgnt training today, when
he will do roadwork, but he wili hardly
start to box for -several ttuys. The
JBoer believes that his wind is a bit
to the bad and needs sharpening: aud
he will do a lot of roadwork uurins
this week .to improve his bellows.
Thompson, Unholz's opponent, is 011
his way and ..should arrive tomorrow.
The Cyclone has not selected his train
ing quarters, but he will work at either
Shannon's in - San Rafael, ©r .Milled a
at Col ma.
Lercari had a chat with Ed Xolan,
Murphy's manager, yesterday and the
latter said that his protege should ar
rive today. Powell Is training at the
Cornell athletic club, so that the tight
game here Is taking on a hu© of life
again that has been lacking in tbe
sport for some time. -.^
Around the sporting headquarters theY
fans are beginning to look with more
leniency on Lercari's card. One would
have to stretch his imagination to tho
straining point to see any real class
in the Thompson-Unholz '\u25a0 fight, but
lacking class It is promising In a more
interesting feature, inasmuch as a
struggle worth the while is predicted
Lercari said that he would bill -the
46 round show at popular prices, and
$1 for the gallery will be all that will
be asked for the seats from the fans
who cannot afford or do not care" for
more select locations, while %'i and $2
will be the price of entrance on the
main floor and boxes will be held. at $5.
Interest is taken In the Powell-Mur
phy fight. There is keen rivalry be
tween this pair. They met twice in
Oakland, but as they were only asked
to go six rounds on each occasion, a.
really good line could not be secured
on the respective abilities of the local
lightweights. Murphy \ has a decision
and a draw in his two fights with
Powell, but the latter has always
maintained that over a longer routo
he would surely conquer the aggressive
and popular little harp..
Lercari 13 confident that the card
be is offering the fight fans of the city
will prove a good drawing magnet, and
he says he believes the worst he can
do from a financial standpoint is to
break even.
The match maker is not sure whether
he will stage the fights* on the nlsrht
of October 29 or SO. The 30th falls
on "Friday, and as that is a big day at
the skatinj? rink, it may be that Char
ley will have to hold the fights on
the 29th.
