O'Loughiln.
Minneapolis lost one of those flossy eleven
Inning games to Milwaukee yesterday after
noon by a score of 2-1. The game was dropped,
primarily, because Kord, after pitching a fault
less game, Insisted on taking the chance on a
high lnfleld fly when be should have let
Greminger have it, the battleship being rat
poison on this variety of pop-up. He dropped
the ball and a second later Bateman landed
for a tbree-bag-g-er. driving In the winning run.
The game was really lost tuo on acoount of
the failure of the club-swingers to win it, in
almost any inning, with a hit. Time after time
the millers could have won by a proper clout, but
asjpften as the chance was offered it was de
clined. In no less than- six of the eleven in
nings would a single additional hit have given
the game to the locals, or tied It. Ford had
the brewers lashed right up to the home plate,
but the failure to massage Mr. Curtiss at the
opportune time lost the game just as much as
Ford's error and Bateman's hit.
Curtiss, the man who walloped the millers so
badly at Milwaukee was out to do the Harry
Thaw stunt for the brewers. Ford was sent In
for the millers. The long chap was at his
best and had everything all of the way. Not
until the fifth inning did the brewers get a hit.
The locals were touching up Curtiss, in spots.
all of the way. They scored hits in eight of
the eleven Innings and in two of the eleven they
landed for two. It should have been Kelley's
game by long odds, but the pinch hitters were
not pinching to any remarkable extent.
The brewers scored first In the fifth inning.
Barrlmore McCormick singled and Curtiss sacri
ficed. Rabbit Robinson stung Ford for a single
and Barrlmore came home. This ended it until
the eleventh -when Ford dropped HyneB" high
fly and Bateman's ripped off- a three-bagger,
Davis misjudged the ball and started in. A
stiff breeze buoyed it up until it went over
Lefty at a tantalizing height.
The millers scored In the sixth when Jimmy
Hart singled and Oyler sent him to second on a
sacrifice. George Xaeger, who, by the way,
Is one of the most dependable in a tight place*
slammed out a drive that went far enough away
to let Hart come home. Never again did the
millers score, altho they made an abortive bid
to. t*e eleventh.
The luck of the game-4s best shown when It
Is considered that in the first inning Davis was
on second and could have scored oh a single. In
the third Sullivan got to second and waited for
the hit to corns home. In the fifth Ford was
marooned at third tor the lack of a Jolt,- with
Suntvan again on second- In the eighth Gtaemln
ger waited in vain on thjrd for the hit that
nerer came. In the ninth Davis singled and
reached third, only to remain anchored there.
In the last half of the eleventh Yaeger hit
again and reached third thru an error and a
sacrifice. Davis, who followed, struck out and
Sullivan went out at first on a dinky infield lob.
At any of the points mentioned a stiff single
thru the Infield would have cooked Milwaukee's
goose to a rich, brows. But the stiff sing, didn't $
come.

GANS IS TOO FAST
J. BLACKBURN
Champion Does' Lively Foot and
Head Work, All to His
Great Advantage.
Philadelphia, June 30.Joe Gans stepped
faster than he ever did in. this town in the
wind-up at the National Athletic club last
night. He had to, for Jack Blackburn, who
was his opponent, Is a pretty rugged customer,
and, besides, he really thought he could best
the champion.
The result proved that Gans is still Black
burn's master. Both were in fine condition.
Blackburn had the advantage of height and
reach but1
Gans more than offset this by superior
cleverness and knowledge of the game.
Time and time again the champion cleverly
evaded swings, any one of which would have
put him away had they landed, but he was
uever there to receive them, in clean punching
Blackburn appeared to have something on Gans
In the first two rounds. But after that the
champion took his opponent's measure and altho
the local-boy was shifty op his feet the Baltl
morian landed ou him hard and often.
The last round was a series of terrific rushes,
both trying their hardest the one and only
punch. Gans had the better of these exchanges
and in the last minute had Blackburn badly in
distress. Had there been any decision it would
have been, Gans'.

Journal Special Service.
St. 'Louis, June 30.Fred Clarke, manager
of the pirates, mentions Comiskey In his
charges against Chairman Herrmann of the
national commission.
,fWere it not for Comiskey," he said,
"Dougherty of the outlaws would be wearing
McGraw's uniform, and there Is a' chance that
he will be wearing it before the end of the
season. Ban Johnson Becured waivers to
Dougherty from every manager In the Amer
ican league except Comiskey and had every
thing ready to give Dougherty to the giants
when Comiskey blocked the deal.
"You see. .Herrmann thinks the giants would
have a better chance to win the pennant and
he is thinking of that $12,000 bet against
Pittsburg. Johnson has Herrmann hypnotized and
Herrmann is doing all he can to keep Pitts
burg from flying the flag."

Chicago.
at
Chicago, June 80.The track meet of the
Amateur Athletic union, held today on Marshall
field, the athletic field of Chicago university,

athletes than has ever before entered in any
thing of this kind in Chicago.
The feature/ of the meet was the Marathon

in the afternoon. The course lay thru the city
by the most direct route to Marshall field,
where eight times around the track completed
the twenty-five miles of "the race. The entries

as It was expected that the pace would be
severe from the start the officials of the track
meet caused a number of..physicians to be sta
tioned in automobiles at various points along
the route.
The other events were of the regulation order,
the number of entries making necessary a num

pitched my last game with the cardinals. I am
friendly with McCloskey, but I am not counting
on remaining with the cardinals. I have been
accused repeatedly ot knocking, and I am tired
of it. The accusation is untrue and I think a

I am worth enough to keep me well for ti

worth a great deal in itself and other moneya
are coming to me from investments."
The luckiest strike that Baldwin ever mad
was in the Nevada Comstock mine. He took it
up after two companies had gone to smash over
it and after ""indefatigable efforts In which h
was forced to mortgage bis country estate, h*
made a strike which nude him one of the rich*
est men of the western states. During the past
fifteen years it is estimated that at least $20,-
000.000 has passed thru his l.-...^
On the race track he has accomplished a teas
which has never been equaled by any man it
the world, winning the American derby fotnr
times. His first win was of this premier race
of the turf of the United States Jn 1884,
when Volante went over the historic course at
Washington park, Chicago, in 2:49%. The next
win placed to Baldwin's credit was in 1886,
when Silver Cloud did the mile and a half
race in 2:8714. Two years later the Emperor
of Norfolk came in at the bead of the bunch.
The last race for this cup von by Mr- Saldwis
was In 1894, when Bey el 8anta Anita crossed
the line a winner by a big margin with a mack
of 2:86 to her credit.
His Great Sorrow.
The one great sorrow of Baldwin's life was
the destruction of the Baldwin bote! anA
theater on Market street, San Francisco, about
four years ago.
"I was pretty near my uppers at that ttoe,**-
said Mr. Baldwin. "It was only my horses
that saved me. Everything I had was tied up
in the hotel which was only lightly insured.
However, a wire to my manager In New Or
hjans put the jockeys wise to the fact that It
something was not done they would be looking
for new jobs shortly. My horses came in first!
the next ten races in which they were com
peted. I came out about $400,000 ahead of ths

then I swore never to jeopardise It again-**
Mr. Baldwin was very restless Thursday night
and Dr. Pease decided that something must b*
doner so changed his location, coming to the
twin cities. His present plans have not bees
divulged, but it is supposed that the veteran
of the coast will rest for a few weeks at soms
of the many quiet resorts near the city.
