THE WORLD KELLEY MEN RETURN EROM SUCCESSFUL TOUR OF THE EAST Saints Come Back With an Ex cellent Traveling Record- Louisville the Only Team to Win Series-Club Only Lost Four Games.

The Saints come back with an excellent record and this despite the fact that Manager Kelley and Huggins have been out of the game. Kelley was car rying his leg in a plaster cast when the team left for the trip and Huggins had his knee injured before the team had fairly started its winning streak. The Saints came home with a record to be proud of and the fanatics are hardly fair to the team when they complain of the three lost in a row to Louisville. The Saints lost their first game of the trip to Columbus, but after that they pulled two in a row from the Columbus team, took a straight series of three games from the Mud Hens and annother series of four games from Indianapolis. This gave them a record of one defeat against seven straight ■wins. Considering this showing the series dropped to the Colonels should not arouse the fanatics. These last defeats were merely bunched. Had the Saints spread the four lost on the trip through the four towns of the trip, even the few who now complain would be ex pressing surprise at the good road work of the St. Paul team. Back at home the Saints will play series with Columbus.. Toledo. Indian apolis and Louisville, and will then go to Kansas City and Milwaukee. AMERICAN LEAGUE. STANDING OF THE CLUBS. Played. Won.

PAUL PLAYERS Miller Huggins Tells Redland Paper of Two Who May Go Up. Miller Huggins dropped into Redland most unexpectedly yesterday. The little Saint is out of it with an injured leg, but expects to return to the game on Monday. He made his appearance on the Rialto during the afternoon and dropped the re mark: "Don't be surprised if you see dne or two of our boys in Cincinnati next sea son. I think we will win the American Association pennant. We have the pitch ' ers. That Stewart is a corker." Huggins did not discuss the rumor that he would be one of the Saints who would swap a Minnesota halo for a pair of red stockings. It is known that the St. Paul infielder has been keeping in close touch with the Red chief, and if his advice is taken Larry Stewart will be one of the pitchers to "be bagged. "The Saints," said Huggins. are a bit crippled just now, with two of the infield ers disabled. Mike Kelley and I are both out of it." Huggins ran home to rest up. He did not see Garry Herrmann, for the Red chief is still at the Laughery club.—Cin cinnati Enquirer.

PAUL GLOBE, TUESDAY AUGUST !i, 1903, OF SPORT DELffl CONFIDENT CORBETT WILL NOT LAST MANY ROUNDS Trainer Insists Jeffries Will Not Permit Bout to Drag Along- Former Champion Is Ready for Fast, Hard Fight—lt Will Be Science Against Brawn. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Aug. 10.— The latest news from Harbin Springs is to the effect that Champion Jeffries weighs close to 230 pounds, but does not appear to be fleshy. Trainer De laney is confident that the mill with Corbett will be comparatively a short one. "The champion," he said today, "does not intend to permit the bout to drag along to an endless length. Jeffries wijl fight with such strength and speed that he will early bring Corbett down to his level of agflity. When he once gets hjm, the battle can be considered as over." When this statement was repeated to Corbett the latter said: "So Jeff expects to make the fight a short one, does he?" he inquired. "Well, I hope he tries to, for if he does he will find me on hand. He will not have to chase me either, for I have invented a short-arm defense which I believe an enigma to him. I am much stronger in punches than I have ever been, and firmly believe I will be able to put force enough in my blows to knock Jeffries down and put him out." The big fight has narrowed itself down to a contest between natural prowess and inspired training. If Jef ries wins, it will be because of his phe nomenal strength and hitting power; if Corbett should be returned the victor, it will be owing to the remarkable course of preparation he has under gone. The actor is undoubtedly working: much harder than the boilermaker, and he has been working harder not only since the two men forsook the East and set up their training camps, but for the last two years, long before the articles of agreement were signed. While not suffering from overconfl dence, the champion seems to think he has no need to go through an arduous course of training. He feels morally certain that he can win from Corbett. As he does not expect to outpoint the monologuist, he has not wasted much time on fancy boxing. All he has done is to assure himself that his strength remains unimpaired, and that he is not going into the ring overweight. It is the knockout punch on which "Jeff" relies, and no matter .how clever his opponent may be, he says that some stage of the game he will be able to get to him hard enough to end the fight. Jeffries has been officially pronounc ed ready for the fight by Dr. C. T. Till man.who was sent here by the Tosemite club to see the champion's physical condition complies with the require ments of the law. Dr. Tillman saw Jeffries stripped in his training quarters and went over him with stethoscope and tape line. The big fellow submit ted patiently to the operation. His heart, stomach, lungs, liver, spleen and kidneys were examined su perficially and declared perfectly nor mal and sound. Then the following official measurements were recorded: Chest, normal, 43% inches; chest, ex panded, 48 inches; height, 6 feet 1% inches; neck, 18 inches; left forearm, 11% inches; right forearm, 11% inches: reach, 76% inches; hips, 42 inches: calf, 18 inches. Dr. Tillman then said: "I find that Jeffries is physically fit to enter the ring at a moment's notice to defend his title with his usual force and determin ation, and in my opinion if he makes an aggressive campaign the battle will be short and decisive. I dare say that he is the most perfect man from a physical standpoint in the world." Returns from the Jeffries-Corbett fight will be received by special wire direct from the ringside at DeWltt & Redetzke's Cafe, 15 East Fifth street. OPINIONS OF SPURTING MEN ON COMING FIGHT Jeffries Is the Favorite but Corbett Has His Admirers. With the big Jeffries-Corbett fight but a few days away, the fight followers of the country are advancing their opinions of the chances of the two men. Being the champion, Jeffries Is naturally the fa vorite of the large majority, but the former champion is not without his admir ers and a number believe that Jeffries, like Sullivan, Is to discover that he fought once too often. The following is a list of the opinions of sporting editors, fighters, retired sports and fight managers: Jeffries from 12 to 15 rounds sure. —John L. Sullivan. Jeffries in 15 rounds. —Tom Sharkey. Jeffries will win. Corbett will make him step for six or eight rounds very live ly. —Gus Ruhlin. Corbett will win. —Tommy Ryan. Jeffries when he gets ready to force it. Only question is number of rounds. —Joe Jackson. Jeffries will win if he can land Corbett a clean hard punch on stomach or jaw. —Billy Madden. Jeffries. —Bert Crowhurst My letter to James J. Corbett read: "Determination and a cool head, mixed with the proper training, will win for you the heavyweight championship of the world." —Charles Henry Genslinger. Missouri Athletic Club. Corbett's chances look rosy to me. —E. H. Mcßride. Jeffries sure to-win before the limit. —James (Red) Mason. Jeff will win, for he is faster than ever and has youth and speed, and is in good shape. —Alex Greggains. I shall be surprised if Corbett lasts over 10 rounds against Jeffries. —William A. Pierce. If Corbett's condition is a shade better than when he last met Jeffries he will win on points easy. —George F. Considine. Jeffries should win in fifteen rounds. Too tough for Jim. —Billy Considine. Looks to me like it will be one of the best fights of the century,,' making it too difficult at this date.to. nick the winner. ■—John Considine. Jeff and Corbett toii evenly matched for me to try picking the winner. ; *--Yio<ung Corbett. I believe Jeffries will defeat Corbett in about fifteen rounds [ -pTohn. T. Corbett. - I thing Corbett ought to win. —Robert C. Gray. In my opinion Jeffries will win. —Thos. F. O'Rourke. Corbett will win in twenty rounds. He outpointed Jeffries before in twenty rounds, and is in better shape now. and Jeffries has not shown that he has got any faster since. —Joe Macias. Jeffries should win within fifteen rounds. He is in a cla-ss by himself. —Charley Houghton. Jeffries ought to win. —Kid McCoy. Corbett's science will come pretty near winning for him. —George P. Gardner. Jeff should beat Corbett again. —Peter Maher. It will be a great fight if both men are in shape. —James Kennedy. I cannot give you my opinion on the outcome, but it will be a good fight. —Charley White. I think Jeffries will win, but to win he must knock Corbett out before the limit. I saw their last battle In New York, and if the bout had been a twenty-round bout instead of a twenty-five affair I am posi tive Corbett would have got the decision, as up to the fatal twenty-third round the mill was Corbetfs. : —Al. Herford. I think Jeffries Wilt win. Barring knock outs, he shouldibe tlje strongest at the finish, and should- |<yin, unless the referee should decidp tlse championship on boxing ability against fighting quali ties, in which case Corbett has a chance. v -IJack Monroe. If referee will prevent too much wrest ling in clinches, I think Corbett has a good chance. —Sam H. Harris. I like Jeff to win ihsfcle of ten rounds. If it goes over that/- look out for Cor bett. t—Terry McGovern. I like Jeffries best? but admit Corbett has a great chance. . —P\ H. Sullivan.

Aug. 10.—"Rube" Waddell. the star pitcher of the Athletics, whose work brought tfce'championship of the American league to Philadelphia last season, has been suspended by his club. Waddell has deserted his bride, has been threatened with arrest, and is now tending bar in a saloon. This escapade is the ■ first that has brought a serious break between the er ratic left-hander and Manager Connie Mack, but at present, at least, it looks as if he would be of no further service to the Athletics in this season's race. His absence may put them out of the running and leave the pennant to Boston. The actions of the great pitcher, pecu liar as they are, have led some to be lieve that he has begun an early cam paign as a press agent for the show with which he has been advertised to appear as a star the coming winter. Connie Mack is quoted as saying that he will not take Waddell back under any circumstances. STRATHCONA AGAIN AHEAD OF IRONDEQUOIT Defender Finishes In Front More Than Eight Minutes. TORONTO. Ont, Aug. 10.—The second race for the Canada's cup was won by Strathcona. the defender, by more than eight minutes elapsed time, Skipper Jar vis got the better of Bdrr'at the start and crossed the line two minutes and three seconds ahead. At that time the wind was about eight miles an hour. The Canadian yacbjt'sf superiority in windward work was a. t once shown and she led all through. Strathcona swung ar6u,nd the first mark at 12:54:43, and when 'the Irondequolfc turned she was almost seven minutes astern. The American skipper had trouble in setting his spinnaker, the' stops refusing to part, thereby losing a minute or two. The wind had lightened and the yachts, squared away, made comparatively slow time. At the finish three quarters of a mile of water separated the two boats. Summar ies: Name. Start. First. Finish.

There has been much speculation with respect to the selection of the White Bear representative of the A class for the interlake regatta ta be held at Oshkosh the latter part of Au gust. The regatta committee which has had charge of the work named Seeress, of Class A, and Pluto, of Class B, but the excellent showing of Knight Errant in the big class on Saturday afternoon altered the situation and left the supremacy of the two boats in doubt. It was learned yesterday that the re gatta committee still stood by its first selections, and it looks now as if See ress would be the boat to go. William Rees, the owner of Seeress, stated that he is willing to abide by the choice of the club; that he wants the fastest boat to go, and that if it can be shown that the Ordway craft is an all-round better boat than his, he is willing to remain at home and yield to the club's wishes. The aftermath of the Saturday races shows that the Seeress was not in the best of tune, while Knight Errant was in fine fettle.' A comparison of the time of the A class boats with the other classes shows that neither Knight Er rant nor Seeress sailed a remarkably fast race, as there was only a differ ence of five or six minutes between the larger and smaller classes, whereas on other days the difference has been fully twice as great. It might be argued, therefore, that the boats were not sail ing as fast Saturday as they have on other days in winds of equal strength. Thus far this season Seeress has won five of the official championship races and Knight Errant four, and three out of the five official trial races have gone to the Rees boat. The Seeress, which is a foot and a half longer than is permitted by the rules governing boats entered in the Interlake Yachting association, has been put into the hands of the builder, John Johnson, with instructions to re duce her length to the proper meas urement, after which further races will be had witfi the Knight Errant the latter part of the week with a view of putting her into tune, and she will be shipped with Pluto in time to get to Oshkosh in due season. During the Oshkosh regatta there will probably be no race on White Bear in the A class, as Crusader and Min nesota, two of the large boats, have recently been sold off the lake, the former going to Clear Lake, lowa, and the latter to Chicago, RACE SEASON OPENS AT EMPIRE CITY TRACK Monte Carlo, the Only Winnjng Favorite, Has Narrow Escape. NEW YORK. Aug. 10.—The* Metropol itan grand circuit season opened today at the Empire City track with 5,000 spectators present, a fast track and Weal racing weather. In the opening event, the £:18 pace, Funston sold at $50 to $30 to the field, but was only a moderate second to the big California gelding, Mush, who won in straight heats with speed to spare. The talent lost again in the 2:15 trot, for which the gray geld ing, Jim Ferry, sold at $50 and the field at $70. He proved to be counterfeit, as George Muscovite took the lead in both heats, winning by a length from Norrie. The 2:09 New York stake of $5,000 brought out a strong field of eleven, Monte Carlo selling for $50 to $70 for the field. The favorite got the best of a flying start, led all the way, but only won by a neck from Dan T. who came with a great rush in the stretch. Dan T won the second by a fine drive in the stretch, but broke in the third, Monte Carlo winning by two lengths. For the 2:12 pace, Frank Yoakum sold at $100 to $90 for the neld. The speedy but erratic Beauseant went off with a rush, winning the first heat, only to be distanced in the second, which was won by Donna McGregor. In the third heat Dart won from the mare by a neck.

BALL PARK ACCIDENT IS BEING INVESTIGATED Philadelphia's Mayor Will Attempt to Fix Responsibility. PHILADELPHIA, Pa.. Aug. 10.—Mayor Weaver today personally interested him self in the Investigation into the cause of the collapse of the promenade at the Phil adelphia National league baseball park Saturday which resulted in the death of nine spectators and serious injury to nearly two hundred others. The mayor, accompanied by Director of Public Safety Smyth, visited the ball park today and later the two officials held a conference with Coroner Dugan. At the coroner's request Director Smyth will not issue a permit for rebuilding the walk un til after the inquest. The bureau of build ing inspection, under orders from Mayor Weaver today appointed a special com mission of epert builders to examine the broken promenade. Their report will be submitted to the coroner. Mayor Weaver, after his visit to the baseball grounds, said: "I can readily see how the accident happened. The floor of the promenade was covered with tin to keep out the wa ter, but instead the water leaked in and rotted the wood. As for the responsibil ity It rests with the people who con structed the walk and with those whose duty it was to keep it in repair." John I. Rogers, who was principal owner of the Philadelphia baseball club when the present pavilion and "bleachers"' were built, was in conference today with Presi dent Potter, of the club. Later in an in terview, Mr. Potter said: "I feel that no precaution was omitted on the part of the company to protect the patrons of the park. It was one of those accidents that occur when a large number of people actuated by a common impulse do something unexpected." Two actions at law were instituted to recover damages for Injuries received in the accident. The suits are directed against the lessees of the grounds to de- termine the liability. The remaining two games of the series with Boston were postponed. The schedule will be resumed on Wednesday. Faribault Wins Game. Special to The Globe FARIBAFLT, Minn..

Doheny has announced his determina tion to return to Pittsburg. but he may not have the say about the matter, as Manager Clarke is inclined to think that he can get along without his southpaw if he will not listen to reason.

Tin present weighs eight pounds and may be named Mary. "When the pitcher Is right yet the team plays B«od ball already" ia one of tlu- pc cultar phrased but nevertheless truthful baseball aphorisms of "Pretzel" Schmidt. Al Buekenberger was largely responsible for the developing of Ed Delehanty as a ball player, he being the manager of the Wheeling team at the time Del played there. It was Bruckenberger who nego tiated the sale of Delehanty to the Phila delphia National League club, the price paid for him being $1,800. Manager Watkins. of the Indianapolis club, denies that he will sell the release of Southpaw Kellum to the Reds this sea son. Next spring, however, the Hoosler twirler will undoubtedly be a member of Kelley's Southern training party. "Speaking of odd names of bail play ers," says King Kelley, the booze distrib uter, "if you go to Jersey City you'll see a Bean, and at Springfield. Mass., a Berry, while Atlanta has Pease, and Kingston, lowa, has Rice. B;iss flourishes at New London and St. Jon at Crumm, After you're done with these you can get Coffey at South Bend. In the line of rolling stock, machinery and similar things, base ball contributes Carr, of Detroit; Ferry, of Buffalo; Mills, of Baltimore; Drill, of Washington, and Gear, of Kansas City. Speaking of scientific bunting, an East ern authority says: "The wily pitchers of today have learned how to fool the slug gers, but the best of them are helpless be fore such bunters as Thomas, Fultz. Keeler, Jones, Bay and Pickering. The bunt deftly placed Is almost impossible to field." 5
