BRADY & SAXTON, S i icket Scalping War Manifesto Tabled—Frank Navin Buys Providence Club For $70.000~Montreal Owner Declines to Sell. New York, Dec. 14—The Am league's “declaration of war" was plg- eon-holed for at least two months and ly for all time by the National leazue today. It Was not even serious- Iy considered, President Lynch said at the close of the session. None of the magnates. could undersiand its purport, he said, so they tabled it. At the final session today of its three day meesing, the National league adopted two resolutions, one calling upon the six states containing cities on the circuit to make ticket scalping punishable by fine and imprisonment, the other declaring war on baseball | Pools and. offering $100 reward for the conviction of persons gambling on the game. The orgenization also vested President Lynch with power to act for it in dealing with the request by the thiree principal mizor leagtes for high- : er classification. Recommendations Approved.

The score at 7 o'clock tonight was eight teams tied at 1,772 miles 5 laps; four teams tied at 1772 miles 4 laps; Galvin and Wiley, 1,772 miles 3 laps. The record for the 91st hour is 1,774 railes 9 laps, made by Root and Fog- ler in 1908. Passed the Record. From the fast pace fregently set by the leaders during the forenoon and carly afternoon hours it was appar- ent that they would again reach rec- ord figures today and they did. Ex- actly at elght o'clock in a wild sprint begun ten minutes earlier by Jack Clarke, the 92d pour's reccrd showed that they had gone 1,798 miles 2 laps, Deating the old record by 3 miles 4 laps. A 'series of spurta led up to this re- sult and two minutes after the scorers had made their report there was @ crash on the northern side of the track, caused by Cameron’s bicycle throwing a tire. Cameron fell heavily and Pye, Wells and Wiley piled on top of him. Wells and Cameron placidly insisted on remounting, but they rested for a while, Pye and Wiley were able to g0 right on.

New Haven, Dec. 14—John Shea of Waterbury lad little trouble in se- curing the popular decision over Alf Lynch of New Haven in a ffteen- round bout before the Amazon Ath- letic club. Shea opened up in the fr: and second rounds, reaching Lynch face and body with short-arm blows and in the third landed two heavy jabs on the face. The seventh and elghth rounds were Shes’s, and he had all the better of the last five. The last round found Lynch holding on to Shea, who was strong. The preliminary was stopped in the second round when Jack McLean of Fhiladelphia was sent to the floor for the count of nine by Young Bosse of Bridgeport. McLean was bleeding from the mouth and the referee would not let himr go on. The semi-final, scheduled for twelve rounds, stopped in the seventh, when Al Ketchel of Bridgeport was knocked out by Dodo Maher of New Haven, who landed a short-arm Jjolt to the chin. Up to the tims of the knockout Ketchel seemed to be having the bet- ter of the fight, BURMAN’'S NEXT ASSAULT ON FATHER TIME. “Wild Bill' Has Special Car for Indi- anapolis Speedway—Fitted Wit Left Hand Drive. Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 14— Wik “Bob” Burman, the world’s Speed King, will _make the Indianapolis Motor Speedway the scene of his next attempt on Father Time. Burman will be here within a few days to try out a new speed creation which has bsen manu- factured for him. Burman just visited the factory and accepted the car as satisfactory while in Cinolnnati He advised the company to ship the car to the Speedway, so that he would be able to give it a thorough tryout It the machine come up to the expecta- tions of the builders and of Burman, it is belleved it will be one of the fast- est American cars ever constructed It 1s bullt especially for track work, hav- ing an exceptionally short wheelbase and a 600 cubic inch motor. If the car shows up in a satisfactory manner, it 1g probable that it will be entered in al sweepstakes race to be run at the Speedway next Decoration day, with Burman at the wheel. The car has a special lefthand drive, so that” the driver is at the inside rail in all track events. CHIEF MEYERS IN FRONT RANK OF CATCHERS. McGraw Taught the Big Indian a Lot in 1911 Season. As flelders the Giants were not the smoothest of performers in 1911. That was one reason why the manager of the team worked every combination to get the best collection that he could of base runners and batters. If we were to relapse into football jergon, which is preity good at this tme of the year, the defense of the Glants would be put down @s weaker than their attack, and it would not be far from the center of truth. By far the greatest improvement shown by any player of the team, and, perhaps, all things considered, the greatest improvement shown by any piayer in the Natlonal league, was that of Chiet Meyers, catcher of the club. The chief, because of his splendid work last season, ousts John Kling from the big star All-American nine, which is cne of the features of the Spalding record book. It's mo ordinary feat to beat a catcher of the caliber of Kling, and the modest Indlan never had the of chances accepted which was almost equal to the world’s record. A1 things considered, thers are compli- ments coming to two men. The first goes to Meyers, because of his work, and the second to John J. Mc- Graw, who made a catcher ful, cleanly manner, “The kind that Mother used to Make”’ Modern mothers and wise-acre cooks use Cottolene, instead of butter or lard, for frying and shortening. The reason is plain as the nose on your face. Cottolene is a vegetable product, made from purest, refined cotton oil. It contains no hog fat or impurities, is made in a care- never sold in bulk, its (o (f /e purity and freshness are absolutely guaran- teed, and it makes food which is free from grease and indigestion. Imitations of Cotfolene are thicker than blackberries in season, so be sure to ask for and take only Cottolene, the original pure food shortening. It is economical because it goes one-third farther. | Made only by THE N. K. FAIRBANK COMPANY Shortens Your Food—Lengthens Yqur Life strength and determination to perse- vere. Merkle was seventh among first base- xmen, but as a flelding first baseman he ran away from all of his contempora- ries. He had 117 assists to his credit, and the next best first baseman, Hob- litzell of Cincinnati failed to get up to the century mark. His record was 91. Merkle and Luderus of Philadelphis had exactly the same number of er- rcrs, and strangely enough, the same number of putouts within two, Merkle having 1,375 and Luderus 1,373. Doyle Wwas down mear the boitom of the second basemen, but usually is, for he managers to accumulate a large number of errors, although in 1911 but few of them were really disastrous in games, and the errors can well be for- given in view of the manner in which he hammers the ball. Devlin was the best of the third basemen who played for New York, being sixth in the list, and Fletcher, who played third base in a few games, tled Authur with exactly the same per- centage, Herzog was below both of em. At shortstop Fletcher made a credit- able showing in his first year. Becker and Snodgrass were the best outfield- ers of the team, and Murray and De- vere ranked In the second division, al- though Devore {s third in the number of outfleld assists, showing the value of his throwing arm. Sheokard leads in that respect and Snodgrass is sec- on but his arm isn't in the best of shape. We need a loft fielder. Drake didn't show anything startling und it is doubtful If he W Davy Jones' condition is do not know of any player on the team who is able to fill the bill.
