Club— Dallas, Tex., July 17.—Rube Mar- quard’s crown for the consecutive vic- tory record is being disputed and Bax- ter Sparks’ record of 21 conseculive games is in danger of being smashed. And by a right hander, too! Baxter Sparks climbed to the top by 3/ his left arm, when he pitched for the Yazoo, Miss., club and won 21 games in a row in 1904. So did Marquard when he rung up the major league record with 19 consecutive victories for the New York Giants in 1912. But here comes John “Snipe” Con- ley, of the Dallas club of the Texas league, and brings home a record to equal, if not surpass, that of Richard In fact, he claims the record for right handers. Conley's right _hand won him 19 con- secutive games this season for the Dallas club, and he is relying on it to hang up a new record for all leagues. Conley came to the Dallas. club from the Baltimore Feds. While pitch- ing in an exhibition game with the ‘Baltimore club, he fell and injured his pitching arm. For a year he was un- §|,able to use an overhand delivery. Last year he used nothing! ‘but a sidearm motion. He is rapidly re- 2) gaining his, overhand delivery, which has brought him much of his success. He is alsova spit ‘baller, with a de- ceiving change of pace. yas Dallas management recently ha an offer for Conley from the Phil- adelphia .Americans, but, refused. it. Dallas is hungry for a pennant and so long as Conley.is rushing them to- ward it at a steady pace, the club doesn’t want to lose him. Nearly all the games won were re- markably close. Four were shutouts Equals Marquard’s 19-Game Record; ___ Is After World’s Straight- Win Mark ! and in-one he allowed-no hits, fanned nine men and only onc man reached first. 6 Conley is a young chap aad shows signs of remit ‘Kable control and in- telligence on the mgund. He has self- confidence, but shows he hasn't an overdose of it. Porro Chicago... BoB Batteries — Tesreau, _ Benton~°and Rariden; Vaughn, Douglas and.. Dil- hoefer. ey St. Louis at Brooklyn.

MINOT LOSES BUD FUSNER WHO GOES TO WICHITA TEAM Star of Magicians Sold by St. Joseph of the Western League Sold to Kansas Minot, N. D., July 17.—“Bud” Fus- ner has quit us. ‘He gave the sign to Manager Brau- tigan yesterday. But he didn’t quit in a huff, for he rather likes this old town in the Northwest, but the bigger | ¥ company is calling him to come back ~—back where the players stage fast- er baseball and where the base run- ners have no respect for a fellow’s shins. Yes, Fusner, who was the property. of thé St. Joseph Western League club, has been sold to Wichita of the same circuit and, after playing both games today against the New Rock- ford aggregation, Fusner will kiss. good-bye to Minot.

Evans is the support of his father and mother, and although registered for military service under the con- scription act, hopes to be permitted to remain at home and care for his par- ents. At the same time he plans to “do his bit” by raising funds for the Red Cross. e * 8 Des Moines, fa., July 17.—Fully re- covered from an operation for the re- moval of his tonsils, Earl Caddock of Anita, Ia. claimant of the world’s heavyweight championship, is settling down for a summer's vacation. Cad- dock believes he needs a complete rest before starting on the winter's. campaign. That the champion is in earnest not to do any wrestling until fall is evi- denced by the fact that he refused two offers of $5,000 to wrestle on the Fourth of July. He also has declined other matches which would net him about $20,000. . Caddock said that before he would agree to meet Joe Stetcher, the big; Nebraskan, from whom he won the title, in another finish match, Stetcher would have to meet John Olin, the Finn; Ed “Stranger” Lewis and Wal- “GOSSIP dek Zbyszko, the Polish wrestler. Cad- dock contends that Stetcher failed to throw any of these men. “It took me ‘two years to get a match with Stetcher, for I was told that 1 was of unknown quality and it would be necessary for me to go, out and wrestle some high class men,” Caddock explained.’ “Now it looks as if Stetcher should clean up some of the wrestlers he failed to defeat hbe- fore 1 shall consider him entitled to a return match.” ee St. Joseph, Mo., July 17.—RP: n four ‘and five hundred trapshooters, many of them, of national reputation, are expected here to participate in the twelfth western handicap tourna- ment of the Interstate association on July 17, 18 and 19.

The shoot will be directed by Elmer Shaner of Pittsburgh, manager of the Interstate association, and James L. Head of St. Louis. ee % Madison, Wis., July_17.—There fs a strong probability that John R.

The gridiron situation in Madison is in doubt.

The attendance on Sundays and holidays has exceed- ed that of the larger cities in the league. * This is the home of Charles Weegh- man, president of the Chicago club of the National league, and he is said to have contributed largely to the suc- cess of baseball here. Patrick Donahue, a brother of the famous. “Jiggs,” is one of the new players signed to strengthen the team.
