Spokane has not headed this season, but tt is more than likely that Cohn's crew will follow pace, while either Tacoma or Vancouver jumps into the lead. Seattle and Spokane and Portland and Tacoma are having a hard fight this week, while the Beavers have fattened off the Islanders. It will be different next week. Seattle and Portland play, and Spokane clashes with Vancouver, Tacoma playing Victoria. This should place the Ben’ gals in the lead, for they can hardly fail to trim the Begs, while Van couver and Spokane are pulling each other dows. GIANTS ARE PLAYING BETTER BALL Although Seattle is in fifth place, the local fans have no real reason to feel discouraged over the showing of the team. The Giants are but 009 behind Portland, and any day may see them back at the head of the second division. A few more victories and Seattle will be close to the .500 notch. This season ix yet young, and with good luck Tighe's men may yet finish near the top. Seattle has been playing great ball in the last three series. Next week they go on the road, and this may make a difference, There is no denying the Giants appear to best ad vantage in the “band box” park. K. O. BROWN SHOWS YELLOW STRIPE. Fight fans throughout the country are beginning to believe more and more that Knockout Brown of Chicago is one of those Eastern hot- house champions. Packey McFarland and Emil Thiry, between them, guaranteed Brown $7,000 for bis share, win, lose or draw, for a i0-round fight at Milwaukee. This is a juicy bunch of coin for such a short ult in which no decision is to be rendered, but Brown refused flatly to tackle the pride of the Chicago stockyards. The K. O. person was present when Packey McFarland made Owen Moran look like a monkey for 10 rounds, and also saw him defeat Jack Goodman and Leach Cross. This was a great plenty for the little Dutchman, who decided he wanted none of Packey’s game. If you will notice, Brown never fights outside of New York city His only battle outside the jurisdiction of Gotham was his six-round mix with Ad Wolgast in Philadelphia Brown and his manager, Dan Morgan, are trying to hide behind the excuse that Packey McFarland has no reputation, and that the Knockout person has nothing to gain by fighting him except the money to be derived. Any scrapper who can show up Owen Moran for 10 rounds has good enough reputation to mingle In the choleest prise ring society. Brown is an awkward fighter, and depends upon his slugging ito win. He stands with his right foot and arm out when boxing, and ts & shine so far as boxing ability is concerned. What McFarland would do to him in a 10-round bout would be a sin and a shame, Brown. and Morgan know this, which is the only reason why they will have nothing to do with the clever harp. It was charged after the two fights between Wolgast and Brown that the champion boxed under wraps on each occasion, and judging from the tactics which Brown has pursued in dodging McFarland, there is something to this talk 4 Se with Tony Caponi at Winnipeg, and with his manager, Joe Woodman, is anticipating some good matches.
