Hanlon Defeated bj Battling
' Kelson at San Francisco.
Fight Was a Stubborn On For
Fifteen Koundsl '
ONESIDED AFTER THAT
In the Eighteenth Round the
Callfornlan Weakened.
Police Signaled for Bout to End
In the Nineteenth. -,
San Francisco, July 29. In one of th
fiercest battles, ever -witnessed In this
city "Battling Nelson" of Chicago, last
eight defeated Eddie Hanlon of San
Francisco, 'the end coming in the.nlner
teenth round.- From the time of the
ringing of the signal for the commence
ment of the fight the-youngsters began
mixing matters In the liveliest manner.
Hanlon fought in his usual fashion but
the Chicago lad. early penetrated the
guard of the Callfornian who bore sev
eral facial marks before the tenth
round, testifying to the accuracy and
force of his opponent's blows. It -was
almost an even thing until the fifteenth
with the boys fighting fiercely. -After
the fifteenth the tide of battle began to
go toward Nelson," who throughout, al
though very heavily punished about the
face and body, had manifested his us
ual powers of endurance and assimila
tion of nunishment. The sound of the
gong in the eighteenth saved Hanlon
trom defeat at that period, but in the
next round he came up so badly dazeu
that Nelson had him at his mercy and
was battering him around the ring un
til the local lad became eo helpless that
tha sDectators made a protest against
the continuance of the now one-sided
fleht.
Simultaneously with a signal from
the police captain to the referee, to stop
the contest, a towel was thrown into
the- rins: from Hanlon's corner and
Referee Billy Roche pronounced Nelson
the victor. Throughout the affair the
blows of Hanlon did not have any ap
parent effect whatever upon Nelson,
who came up gamely and stubbornly to
the firing line and always carried the
battle to the other man's territory.
At the conclusion Nelson displayed
few bruises, while Hanlon's face was
bleeding and cut.

DID GOOD HITTING.
Durbin Was Batted Hard from
the Start.
Spectacular Work of Olson Is a
Feature.
The four runs which the Saints made
in their first inning at the bat, served
as a. corkscrew to pull the cork out
Of the ginger bottle in the game witii
Fort Scott on Friday afternoon, and
led the way to the triumphal arch.
Then Olson aouble-crowrted ' the vic
tory in the ninth inning, when the
score was 10 -to- 8 in favor of the Ce-
lestials, by climbing up- on Jacob's
ladder and pulling - Jones? i line drive
out of the ozone, with two men on
bases and one out. and completed a
pretty double play, which rung down
the curtain. The little Swede was
made the object of an impromptu re
ception in front Of the grandstand by
the overjoyed fans, and incidentally
they lined his palm with silver, when
they stretched out their fins and
yelled "Put her there."
Shiriners Scores the First Run for
- Topeka.
And while the praise Is being scat
tered around, a sheaf of palms must
not be denied Cole for his brilliant
work at center and to Carter for his
pitching. The big Adonis of the Saints
was in good trim and incidentally mad
from Thursday's horror. Before going
into the fracas he shouted to his team
mates: "If anyone says anything to
you, cuss 'em." And then he went In
and pitched one of the best games of
his season with the celestials. Nine
were found off .his slants, but at least
half the runs followed errors.,
White on third. 'Is- still an experi
ment, as is Shinners on short. The
big fellow mixed up with three errors,
and the little sorrel-top had two fast
ened against record. The trouble lay
with their- .throwing rather than
fielding.

Armsthong Has . Little Argument
with Mr. Cusack.
An infant, named Durbin was in the
square for Ft. Scott. Armstrong had
to continually feed him from a nurs
ing bottle, labeled "Advice From An
Old Head." When the supply ran out,
the whole Ft. Scott team would come
in and hand the kid teething rings to
cnew on. Let mm alone: Let him
alone!" yelled the fans and they were
right. He was hit safely 12 times and
was execrably wild. Six free passes
were his contribution to Topeka, with
a ball planted in Olson s slats. This
same cherub pitched nineteen innings
the other day against Pittsburg and
gave but three hits. - It is a case of
Off agin, on agin, Finnigin" with
him.
Harrington Slams One Against the
Left Field Fence.
Armstrong met with a broiling mass
of roasts from the fans. His attempt
to bluff Umpire Cusack in the fifth
inning over a decision at first, came
nearly costing him his privilege of be
ing on the grounds. The big indicator
man gently waved his hand at him, a
la, "Back to the timbers" and Army
sought the bench. His mouth bubbled
over again a little later, and Cusack
handed him another bunch much like

Where they play Sunday:
' . Topeka at Pittsburg. - .' J
f lFort Scott at. Springfield. '.
Leavenworth at Sedalia.
Iola at Joplin.
Jack Frell.' whose eye was hurt in
practice on. Wednesday, will not be
able to play until at least the middle
of next week. White will take care
of his sack at third. Olson will go to
second, and Shinners to short. Liming
will play in the left field and one or
the, pitchers in the right garden.
Sedalia Democrat: "The names of
Abbott and Schrant would . look well
in the Sedalia line-up." There Is one
thing abont it all anyway, fie Sedalia
ana Topeka newspapers can sympa
thize with each other just now.
Captain Abbott would like to get
Murray, Pittsburg s center fielder, to
Topeka. But he might as well knock
his head against a stone wall. The
Pirate "syndicate," as the manage
ment there is known, will not let the
little middle field gardener go under
any circumstances.
There will be no Sunday game in To
peka tomorrow. The syndicate at Pitts
burg played the part of the poiana
Chinas and wants (193 to come here.
At first the Pirate agreed to make the
trip to Topeka for $85, which represent
ed the railroad fare. To that tne to
peka management accepted. But Fri
day night a telegram reached Secretary
Logan from the 'Syndicate demand'
ing J193 or no game in Topeka. 'rne
claim was Itemized in this way: Rail-1
way transportation, 186; hotel bills, 149;
street car fare, $18; loss on grandstand
because of not playing at home, $40.
Then on top of all of that the "Syndi
cate" wanted one half of the gate re
ceipts.- For genuine, wholesale, hog-
gishness, the Pirates have them all
skinned a mile and then some. Topeka
must certainly look easy to those people
down there. The management at once
refused the demand and- wired back
that it-would take the Saints there to
play Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, ac
cording to the schedule as first made,
But getting right down to it, this busi
ness of trading Sunday games is prom
ising to prove a loss to the association.
Last Sunday Leavenworth was guaran
teed $150 as Its share of the receipts,
and all of the receipts above the guar
antee of $25 which was taken in at the
Oriole-Saints game at the soldiers
Home in Leavenworth on Tuesday.
Figuring up the receipts of both games,
and dividing them on a 12 per cent
basis, it lost the Topeka management
about $35. If Leavenworth's and Pitts
burg s action may De taken as an indi
cation of what the other clubs of the
league will want for bringing Sunday
games here, the association mignt 3ust
as well cut out all idea of having Sun-
on v baseball in Topeka. It does seem
strange that such a spirit of "wanting
the earth" should prevail oyer the cir
cuit. ,
A telesrram was received Friday af
ternoon bv President Sheard from Sec
retary Codding of Sedalia offering Rohn
and Lee for Abbott and Schrant. It
didn't look good to Sheard ana ne Turn
ed it down.
Frank Merriwell Speer is back on
duty with the Midgets again, which

that youngster, Towers, Craig and Hor
ton.
A clipping from the Sporting News
On Harry ivane, raprmisiieiu a iiata
pitcher of 1902 and 1903: "Harry Kane
rithprl -52 innings for the Clarksdale
club of the Delta league and the game
in which the first or nis opponents
made the circuit ended in a 1 to 1 tie.
If the Delta were a more important
lensnie Kane's performance would be
accepted as the record. Chesbro went
41, Wiggs 44 and Young 45 innings with
out yielding a run. Chesbro's feat was
against Pacific-Northwest and Young's
against American league sluggers. Kane

ble. He belongs in better company and
will get another chance. He turned
down several fine offers before he Join
ed Clarksdale. He has an arrangement
by which he is not to be reserved for
1905. Smith wants him back in Roch
ester. Clarksdale patrons consldei
Harry the premier of his profession
and want to match him and his team
mates against the Memphis Southern
league team for a big amount. Their
challenge has not been accepted."
It is probable that Dolly Gray, the
Miners', first baseman will go to tha
right garden and Crum, now number
nine on the score book, will be brought
to the initial Back. Both of the players
want to make this change. Gray was
Sedalla's crack outfielder last year and
likes work in the garden.
Evidently Umpire Owens also made
a hit at Joplin. The News-Herald ex
presses itself in this way concerning
his initial appearance: "Not a ripple
of discontent at Cox park, either from
the grand stand or any of the players
during the four games that have been
umpired by Owens. He has put a new
phase on the baseball situation in Jop
lin. No more do visiting players delay
the game with senseless or sensible
kicks and grumble over decisions at
bat and in the field. Owens Is quick,
accurate, reliable and positive and has
always been exactly right, according
to universal sentiment. President
Shlvely cannot possibly improve upon
Owens. Joplin wants him to call every
game that is scheduled to be played
here."
The baseball team will be back next
Saturday to open a series of four
games with Iola. According to the
original schedule they were to have
played here with the Gasllghters on
Thursday, Friday, Saturday and then
to have gone home with the Iolans for
games on Sunday, Monday and Tues
day. Herman Tholen, who owns the
Lamplighters, is willing to give To
peka a Sunday date, without askinr
for the railroad line between Topeka
and his town for condescending to
come here. It is assured that To
peka will have a game here tomorrow
a week.
