If the comumission recognizes a third major league it cannot help but give the pen- nant ner a chance to fight for the world’s championship, which will mean a three-cornered world's serfes. With three contenders, the only absolutely fair way would be to have the teams vlay a ‘round robin,” each team play- Ing each of the others a certain num- ber of games, the winner being the one securing the greatest number of vic- tories. If the merles were made an elimination affair it would mean that one team would play twice as many games as each of the others. Whether a three-cornersd serles would add to or detract from the keen {meresl which has always been wn n the games for the championship is & question which will probably cause a conflict of opinion. ith but two teams competing the interest is con- centrated and the whole year of base- ball is brought to a climax in seven fames. The stretching out of the se- les might take the edge off the inter- »st, although It might e argued on the mer side that with three teams play- a wider field would be intimately BOTH FIGHTERS IN BESTOFCONDITION Frank Moran Hopes to Wrest the World’s Heavywei Pugilist Title from Jack Johnson Today—Doctors Think the White Hope Has Marvelous Physical Development. rarls, June 26.—Jack Johnson, holder of the world’s heavyweight pusiiist championship, and Frank Moran of Pittsburgh, who hopes to wrest the title from' the big Galveston black man, were early to bed tonight in their training quarters for a restful sleep before their 20-round battle in the am- phitheatre of the Velodrome D'Hiver tomorrow night. Each man today de- clared himself physically fit for the fray and each was highly optimistic that victory would rest with him. Ex- perts who have closely watched them while in training bore out the asser- tions of the fighters that they were well prepared for the battle. Moran had only light exercise early this morning and spent the remainder of the forenoon lolling about his quar- ters at Merici-on-the-Oise and in picking wild flogvers in the nearby wood. This afternoon he came into the city for a thorough examination by physicians, who decided him to be physically perfect. The doctors ex- pressed great admiration over ;the marvelous muscular development af the white man and the regularity of the action of his heart and lungs. Johnson did his usual morning run on the road near his training camp at Asnieres. Afterwards he rode into Paris In & new automobile to cash a check. Entering the bank, he was surprised to meet an old acquaintance, an attorney from his home town in Texas, to whom he said he never was in better condition. This afternoon be- fore a large crowd of spectators in his gymnasium Johnson donned the gloves with hie trainers. He purposely ex- tended by several rounds his custom- ary five-round training bout in order to test his form thoroughly, taking on successively three boxers for several rounds each. He also went through part of his regular indoor exercises. In the betting tonight on the result of the fight Johnson remained a 3 to 1 fayorjte. en Johnson and Moran put up their fists, it will be close to your dinner hour. According to the pro- gramme, the boxers will enter the ring at 10.80 p. m., Parisian time. That means about 5.30 p. m. in this city. SPORTS ARE SUSPICIOUS OF JOHNSON-MORAN BOUT Reported That It Will Be a Moving Picture Affair—Johnson Likes the Title. The fact that there is but little talk about the coming battle between Jack Johnson and Frank Morsan in the Vel- odrome in Paris next Saturday shows | that the fans in this country are not greatly interested in the contest. | Reports that have come from Parls to this country that it is going to be a moving picture affair have diverted the attention of the sports, although the battle is really fo the world's championship, which title Jofinson still -holds. If Johnson is half as good 2s when he defeated Jeffries it is fg- ured that he can easily defeat Moran The talk that Johnson is likely to lay down to Moran and get a big pot of money, while ridiculous, has caused suspicions. Johnson loves the title of champion, however, and he is golng to hold on to it as long as he can. Then thers is that 330,000 he will probably get for boxing Langford in England, and he 1s not going to let any chances get by him at a stage of his career when he needs money. There have been many conflicting Teports regarding Johnson's condition. The latest is that he looks well, but is fat and has a paunch. Many of the sports in France figure that if Moran will work to send his blows to the paunch he would have a good chance affected by the result. All over the country, however, the annual clash between the National and American league pennant winners has been ac- cepted as the crowning event of the baseball season, and it is extremely doubtful if there could possibly be any more interet displayed in the past. It seems almost certain that the new major league will be formed if the Fed- erals refuse to break up or make over- tures of peace, but the change may be deferred until next eeason. Even if a new league were formed it is possible that no change would be made this year in the world’s series arangements. The commision has not as yet gone {ar enough in its plans for the thira eague to take up the world's series Phase of the sftuation.

They are evidently over- {and are in line for the city champion- looking the fact that Johnson is a ‘wonderful defensive boxer. Moran has made the same plans that others have who have fought | Johnson. Moran believes he will make Johnson come to him with the fight- ing and then he will be able to get #n- side of any defense Johpsci: may have More experienced boxers than Moran have figured the same way, but they were in the ring but a short time be- fore Johnson had them coming to him, when he would wallop them with his deadly right uppercut or _left hook, Moran, too, is nervous, which is a bad thing for a boxer, as it generally acts against one in the ring. Johnson will take his time, as he always does in a battle, and on that acount it is expected to last more than ten rounds, \ The latest odds in Paris on the bat- tle are 10 to 4 on Johnson, with few takers. JOHNSON STAKES $5,000 ON HIS CHANCES Al g Champion Pugilist Confident of Vic- tory. Jack Johnson and Frank Moran, the American heavyweights who are to fight for the championship in Paris on Saturday, appear to be equally confident of 'victory, as their train- ing draws to a close. Johnson is so satisfied he will win that he has $5,000 to place on his chances, but so far has found no taker. Moran, at his train- ing quarters at Meriel-Sur-Olse, a few miles outside of Paris, asserted that he was sure he would defeat Johnson, Both men go through the customary exercises, covering several miles on the road and engaging in boutst with their training partners. Moran had bouts with Tom Kennedy and Willie Lewis, in addition to bag punching. Moran has recelved few visitors, while Johnson, who has been doing a large part of his training in public, is an object of interest to considerable crowds daily. So far there has been little betting on the results. BUSINESS MEN OPEN THE BASEBALLgSEASON On N. F. A. Grounds — Other Fast Games Téday and Tomorrow. In the initial game of the season the Y. M. C. A. business men will clash | agalnst the New London business men on the Academy campus this after- noon. They expect to play games ev- ery Saturday on the Academy campus ship among players in the city. Dur- ing the last week the players had some stff practice and have all kinds of confidence and see nothing but victory. A large bunch of rooters are expected and New London is sending a delega- tion to get the local men's goat. The battery for the locals will be Nicker- son; Fletcher and Dean. All Stars. The All Stars journey to the State Hospital today and open the series with that team. Manager Hughes has promised to bring one of his usual tip- | top lineups and expects to take the game, hands down. The series between these two teams last vear was consid- ered the best seen on the hospital dia- mond. As the Hospital team is stronger than last year, a game that the fans should notf miss is expected. Benjamin and Brickley, Hourigan and | Chase will be the batferies. A special car will be on hand before and after the game. 3 ! Sunday, Manager Hughes has signed the Bear'Cats to play on the Cranberry FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKET WAS FIRM. General Advance in Prices Was Main- tained to the Close. New York, June 26.—Judging from the reiative firmness of today’s stock market, much of the apprehension pro- duced In various quarters by the Claf- lin failure has been dispelled. Following London’s lead, stocks opened at general advances, the gain in many standard issues extending to over a full point. Much of this was lost before the end of the first hour, when fresh liquidation, due to rumors dealing with Iehigh Valley and the government, caused a loss of about half the advance In the later session moderate buying of the leaders at more or less steady advances imparted the best tone of the day, which was maintained to the close, the rise in the most important ‘shares ranging between one and two points. A factor of some assistance in making for more cheerful sentiment ‘Wwas the announcement that the Owen &tock exchange bill had been re- referred to committee. Bome of the epecial stocks which have been subject to unfavorable con- @itions were again depressed. United Drygoods preferred, the holding cor- poratfon of the Claflin company, fell another 12 points to 53, but recoverad more than half its loss before the close, Wells-Fargo FExpress, which terday suffered a severe reduction n its dividend, lost § points, and Amer- ican HExpress 1 1-2. There was an- other gold export engagement of $i.- 900.000 in spite of n‘fnrt‘hor rise in exchange, and forecasts of the weekly meetings indicating a lows of 96,000,000 to 38,000,000 more directly on this wit- uation.

Philadelphia, June 26.—Both games of today’s double header here with Washington were victories for Phila- | delphia, the visitors forfeiting the first in the fourth inning by 9 to 0 and the second being decided in the tenth in- ning by 8 to 5. Umpire Chill repeat- edly called balls on Pitcher Engel of Washington, thereby sustaining the claim of Captain Thomas of Philadel- phia that the twirler was delivering the pall unfairly by having both feet off the rubber when he pitched.

Chicago won the first contest by hitting Douglass hard, two triples and a home run being made off him in the fhird inning. The second game was a pitchers’ battle between Humph- ries and Ames. The former had the better of it, for in the fourth inning Schulte’s double and Corriden’s single, two of the three hits made off Ames, brought Schulte home for the only run.

Dubue.p Totals Score by i -2 The selection of Georges Carpentier to referee the Moran—Johnson as- sault-at-arms has a decidedly pecu- Har look. On the face of things Car- pentier appears to be totally unfitted for this very Iimportant position. Aside from the advertising to be de- rived from his connection with the fight, no poorer selection could have been made than this 20-year-old bo; That the wily black should be wili- ing to place his title at the mercy of this excitable, inexperienced young- ster is most surprising.
