CLEAN BREAKS FAVOR CHICAGOAN Faraoa Davles KaTara Xatloaal Baxlaar U(t Dlaelpllae the Walcatts aad Other Fakers Dasky One Haa a Coap la Stent. Jack Root and George Gardner are now both in BuiXaJo. Root reached the border city this morning and will put in fourteen hard days of work for hia meet ins with-George Gardner on the afternoon of July 4. Root haa with him Johnny Hogun and Hugo Kelly. Thla pair of middle-weights is giving the champion all the rough and fast work he deems essential to beat Gardner with.

The Lowell man has been in his camp bow over a week, and reports from there Indicate that he Is getting tn shape for the battle of his career. From Chicago there will go to Buffalo the biggest -crond that ever left the city to travel over a distance of ground to witness an encounter. The time and the conditions, as well as the attraction, are the drawing magnet. A special train has been chartered by the followers of the men to leave Chicago over the Wabash road on the afternoon uf Friday, July 3. By thus chartering the train outright, a round-trip rate of $10.50 was made possible, which Is less than the regular fare one way.

The party will iach Buffalo car'y on the morning of the Fourth, and up to o'clock the pugilistic voyagers will be enabled to take in Niagara falls. Then comes the fight. Those who elect to do so can come back to Chicago on any of the regular trains until midnight Sunday, though the busy ones will take the special back at midnight on the Fourth. The betting has already developed a lively state. It Is now even money and take your pick, though Root is likely to become a light favorite before the day of contest.

This principally because the rules at Fort Erie are largely 'favorable to the clean, lever style of the local man. To hit In clinches at Fort Erie is foul, not only by virtue of the rules of the club, but by reason of the laws of the police department of the dominion town. Though Root has demonstrated that he can mix It, having done so for seventeen rounds with Gardner when handicapped by a broken left hand from the second round on until the battle was stopped, and later on going In and mixing it fiercely enough with both Kid Carter and Marvin Hart these two a fortnight apart, and both decisively beaten Jack likes the cleaner sort of work. His forte is to stand off and peck away at his opponent, feinting, ing, and sidestepping, then pecking away some more, with an occasional right-hand wallop essay. This.

style of boxing is sot of the Gardner store. He showed this in Bun Francisco, when In seven rounds Root had the Lowell man stabbed Into aightless shape, groggy, groping, and helpless. Not once did he land on Root, except when, in the seventh round, he coolly and deliberately fouled himself out of the range of further punishment. The glove, guided low delib-' rrately, was held in this position long enough to enable the referee to vault clean around the men and see Its foul Juxtaposition. Ed Dunkhorst, the "human freight car," a fight the other day.

His backer now offers, to match him against any man on earth, bar Jim Jeffries. I can see Fitzslm-jnons. Ruhlin. and all the other heavies taking to the woods, to say nothing of a lot of light heavies, middle-weights, lights, feathers, and bantams. a.

The lightweight fight between Jimmy Britt San Frsncisco and Jack O'Keefe of Chicago at Butte. a week ago yesterday, a did much to advance the stock of the local boy. It demonstrated one of two things O'Keefe is either of higher class than he was credited with, or Britt is some shy of championship caliber. The twenty rounds fought found O'Keefe landing up and dealing out his best in shop against the two to one favorite In the betting. It was expected, and this expectation was reflected In the betting, that Britt would mother the local boy.

Willie Britt, the brother of the coast champion, wrote me after the Portland fight a fight that went to O'Keefe on a foul before the route had been half traveled that If Jimmy and Jack ever hitched up again It was sorghum right out the stalk for the pet from the far side of Oakland bay. No one takea little Big Hart seriously. The manager of O'Keefe is a sanguinary little cuss, overly enthusiastic at ail times, and so unconsciously prejudiced in everything he Is Interested in that his talk is taken for little better than twaddle. "Parson" Davles, however, who saw the fight, concurs In everything Hart claims for his man. and the astute and keen "Parson" goes so far as to state that he not be surprised soon to see O'Keefe champion of his class.

By this the "Parson" means that should O'Keefe and Gans xoeet the white boy will have as good as an even chance to win. There Is much in Davles' judgment of lighters to command re- spect. He has handled the best In the world, from bantams to heavies and in between, I and he has always demonstrated that he knew a lighter once he saw one. Aside from the Cght proper, O'Keefe should be gratified in 7 having won over so good a Judge of boxers as 'Tarson" Chsrles E. Davles.

The Denver Post prints stories of the fights let ween Jimmy Britt and Jack O'Keefe and Broad and Herrerra from the ringside at Butte, written by George Bller, last Saturday a week ago. George must fcavs RELIANCE. New cup yacht which, by yesterday's victory, seems likely to be the boat which will ducked Into his astral body and "covered" the lights for the Denver publication. I saw him on the streets of Chicsgo at the time he was purported to have been writing the story of the Butte fights. Reports from Chicago are to the effect that "Kid" McCoy is working out every morning in a gymnasium preparatory to taking on another bout in the near future.

He claims to have $5,000 backing against Root or Gardner. Buffalo Courier. As a matter of fact, the clever "Kid" is not looking for a fight with Root. Gardner, or any one else. What mostly concerns McCoy nowadays is the inner dope and stable information which abounds around race tracks.

a recent talk with a local follower of the sport. McCoy said in as many words that Jack Root had convinced him (McCoy) that his day as a fighter had passed. In the light of this confession, Jialf wrung from the boxer, it is hard to divine how the statement that he had backing for another battle ever gained currency. If McCoy electa another crack at Root, and haa the money the clipping credits him with, Root asks no easier task than divorcing him from that much. An American boxing congress, fashioned after the manner of the Jockey club, the Western turf congress, and the California Jockey club, or along the lines of the national agreement obtaining among major and minor baseball leagues, is the hope of "Parson" Davles.

Mr. Davies thinks that the gathering at Buffalo on July 4 next, say on the evening after the light heavy-weight championship contest, would be Just the time and place for the formation of the league. The idea is to perfect an organisation which would act as a protectorate over the game, enlisting under Its banners the club managers, the boxers, promoters, referees, and fight critics. Davles sees in this sort of an organization the reclamation of the sport. He would have the parent body issue franchises to clubs, appoint and hold accountable the referees, establish the proper weight divisions, weed out the fakers by a "setting down" or blacklisting system, and rid the sport of its Walcotts and others of that Ilk who fight for fleecing purposes.

It Is suggested that Jack Herman, the manager of the big battle at Buffalo on the Fourth, take the Initiatory move In the matter by calling a convention of those interested together on the first Saturday night In July, The cost of membership In the organisation and the acquirement of franchises from It are to bo purely nominal. Just enough to pay the cost of maintaining a centraoffice somewhere. Under, this system, a Wyatt Earp, as a referee, would be impossible, for a referee not already operating under a permit from the organisation could not go in and "scuttle a ship." simply because he had been selected for the function by the sharpers negotiating the' coup. He would first have to be passed upon by a board of governors, and unless a clean hill of character was established one a couple of dosea referees already in good standing would have to be selected. All "private agreements" under the provisions of which the poorer boxer of a couple was Insured against defeat by the better man would be summarily dealt with, and the (Continued on Fourth Page.) i f'- 5 If- 5 -'4 'i 1 i it BIG SCANDAL III THE TIDAL STAKES Goughacres Stable's Shorthose Wins Erent," and Full Investigation Will Be Made.

Special DUptch to The Inter Ocean. NEW YORK, Jane 20. The running of the $20,000 Tidal stakes, for 3-year-olds, at a mile and a quarter, today, at Sheepshead Bay, was, from every viewpoint, a scandalous affair. It afforded the most surprising reversal of form by both the Goughacres stable's Shorthose, who won in a gallop, and J. B.

Haggln's Charles El wood, who ran second. The race was the cause of no end of ugly talk, and when It was over the stewards of the meeting. F. R. Hitchcock, J.

G. Follans-bee, and H. K. Knapp, sent for Captain Fred Proesgrave, the trainer of Shorthose, and notified him that they intended to make a thorough Investigation. On Wednesday Shorthose made his first appearance since his magnificent victory In the Withers stakes at Morris park.

He was entered in a handicap at a mile and a sixteenth, with 113 pounds, Haack up, and the race was run over the Grsvesend track In precisely the same kind of going as that which prevailed at Sheepshead Bay today. The Athellng colt, because of his Withers victory, was made a hot favorite on Wednesday at 8 to 5, but the price went up In some books to 2 to 1 while the harses were -at the post, because of a plunge on W. B. Jennings'. Proper, the ultimate winner.

Colt's Aaklea Doetored. In the paddock before the race It was noticed that Shorthose's ankles hsd been lodined. and when he showed absolutely no speed In the race, running fourth to Proper, River Pirate, who carried 111 pounds, and Father Bill Daly'a Himself, the Impression prevsiled that the Athellng colt had gone wrong and would not be a factor in For the big stake today the Westbury stable's Whorler, winner of the Brooklyn Derby at Gravesend from Golden Maxim, was an odds-on favorite, with James Gaiway's big, striding colt Meltonian second choice at It to 5. Shorthose opened at 6 to but receded to eights, with River Pirate at nines and Charles Elwood at 20 to 1. It was raining hard and the track was a sea of mud with a hard bottom.

When Fitzgerald let them go to a good start Martin got Black Hussar away from the post first, but quick as a flash Bullman took the rail with Charles Elwood and rushed down past the Judges' stand, with Black Hussar at his saddle girths, and the favorite, Whorler, O'Neil up, close behind, taking the mud bath for They raced in this order into the back stretch, where Black Hussar dropped rap-Idly to the rear. Charles Elwood. who was a wild horse, continued his wild flight up the back stretch, with Whorler a length back, rol lowed by River Pirate, Meltonian. and Shortnose, stringing out tn a procession. Shorlhoae Loosaa Vs la Froat.

At the mile. Whorler was let down, but he could not reduce Charles Elwood's lead of a length and a half, while Meltonian. having his troubles in the going, had passed River Pirate. It was at this point that the crowd began to cry out in astonishment, as Shorthose was seen to overhaul River Pirate and Meltonian on the turn. The Athellng colt was running in wonderful form, and as the field swung into the stretch and he caught Whorler there was a roar of disapproval from one end of the track to the other.

At the last furlong pole Haack let Shorthose have his head, and the colt rushed past meet Sir Thomas Upton's Shamrock III. Charles Elwood with ridiculous ease. He had such a snap that Haack took him up 100 yards from the wire, where he galloped in two and a half lengths to the good In 2:13 1-5. Charles Elwood finished three lengths before Whorler, who. under a hard drive, managed to beat River Pirate for third money by three parts of a length.

Whitney declared to win with Mimosa, Burns up. Inflexible was ridden by Redfern, and the two youngsters were coupled In the bettlna at 7 to 5. first choice. At the last sixteenth Inflexible was leading by nearly three lengths, but Redfern rode the Hamburg-Berriedale colt clean to the wire, where he won handily by two lengths, In phenomenally fast time for the condition of the track. Burns rode Mimosa, who is a daughter of Hamburg-Castatia, out to beat R.

W. Wal den's Monsoon by a half length. The stew ards immediately called Redfern into the stand and asked him why he did not make an effort to allow Burns to win with Mimosa, according to Mr. Whitney's declarations. Redfern said that he did not believe Mimosa could win, and therefore did not dare to take the risk.

But the stewards fined him $200 for not riding according to orders and for violating the rules of racing. The other races were without unusual features. EASTERN RACING GOSSIP. Easliab Steeplechase Joekeya to Ride la America. Special Ilptch to The Inter Ocean.

Reliance won today's race of the ninety-foot sloops in-Long Island sound in the first twenty minutes of sailing and before turning the first mark, while the Columbia and Constitution were trying to outluff each other. By their sharp rivalry both older boats lost hundreds of yards, and any prospects they might have had of winning. After that it was a procession all the way around to the finish line, where Reliance beat Constitution by four minutes, and seventeen seconds, and Columbia by seven minutes and thirty-one seconds.

The course was twice around a triangle; a reach of three miles across the sound, a four-mile beat to windward, and a broad reach of four and three-fourths miles twenty-three and one-half miles In alt Captain Barr sent Reliance across the windward end of the line, blanketed Columbia, and dropped both the others astern, leaving them fighting for the indward position.

'eon a. Denver, ft. Mr. Comlskey's-Toung men hara no valid excuses to otter for the humiliation of yesterday. The champions from Philadelphia simply played rings around the South Slders from start to finish and won aa easy victory by a score of 4 to 1.

1 It was a pitchers' duel tbe flrst half or tha gam with honors fairly divided between Dr. White and the solemn-faced Mr. Bender. The Indian had the most speed and fielded his position In magnificent fashion, but at that White had a shade the best of it. The doctor mixed up a puzsling curve ball with a seductive low drop, and with anything like decent support would have won his game with ease.

But tbe White Sox fielded like raw amateurs and literally threw the game away. Tannehlll, Jones, and Ma-goon were the chief offenders. To make a bad matter worse the South Siders gave a weird exhibition of base running. The Quakers scored their first run in tha sixth inning on singles by Powers and Hart-sell. a fielder's choice, and Jones' fumble They scored again in the seventh inning on.

Davis' two-bagger and Seybold'a single. In the eighth inning Tannehlll's muff of Hartsell's easy pop fly and Davia' lone aingla to right yielded another tally. In the ninth singles by Murphy, M. Cross, a base on balls, and a long fly in the outfield gave the visitors their fourth and final run. The White Sox scored a run in the eighth Inning on Davis' muff of Jones' line drive over first, and Isbell's single to center.

Cornelius Mack, the wire and diplomatic manager of the Philadelphia champions, was at peace with all the world, and on speaking terms with hlm-v eelf ia't night. Speaking of Bender, the Indian. Cornelius aald: "The red man looks good to me. Aa a matter of course, a winning ball team always looks good, and tbe manager la liable to be prejudiced In their favor, but honestly I belleva that Bender deserved all tha bouquete which were tossed at him this art-ernoon. Ha nt only pitched good ball from start to finish, but ha fielded hia poiUon in masterly style.

Ha made a couple of stops on ground bit that "practically saved tha game for ua. It la a caae of Philadelphia again thla afternoon and If the weather la passing fair there will be a record-breaking crowd oat at the South Side park. I look for a close and exciting game. Plant wilt no tha Ditching for Philadelphia and the chancea are that little Pat Flaherty will be on tha firing Una for Chicago. Thla tnaa White la a great pitcher.

With even fair support he would have on tha game for Chicago yesterday. What tall Isbell doea not know about the my- teriea of base running would crowd the covers of a 200-page book.
