H. Had-cock as Bupervlsor. Collins, Baker, Barry and Mc Innis as Good on Offence as Defence Draw Many Passes The value of J. Franklin Baker, Jack Mclnnis. Jack Barry and Kddie Collins to the Athletics Is strikingly shown by the number of runs these tuur men have baited home this season and by the number ot passes they have secured.

To last Thursday the Mai knien had totalled 702 tallies, of which BJJ had been batted In either on saletles, sacrifice Hies or Infield outs. The lour inlielders had hammered home 6S per cent, of their teams tallies, Baker batting in lis runs, 90, Barry KS and Cullins 71. To the same date the American league champions had acquired 6'io pastes. Connies big lour claiming 4.1 per cent, of the gratuities. Collins Is (he champion walker ot the he having walked to first S3 limes this year over the four-ball route.

Kcldle Murphy, the Athletics' lead-off man, has been passed 71 limes this year, while Baker has obtained transportation 57 times and and Barry each hae 4 i walks to their -refill. cf the 11S runs batted in by Baker I his season, lu4 have been on sate hits, six on sacrifice tins and eight on Infield outs. Once this season J. l-'ranklin baited in live runs In a game and twice he batted in tour. He Is the one White Klephant who has manufactured two that cleaned the bases of their three itn-ants.

The Mackmeu who have ilune the clean-up act this year are as fol-ows: BAKER. Singled off Weilman, of St. Louis, jn 21 and tripled off Scott, of Jhieago, on Aug. 11, each hit scoring three men. COTTRELL.

E. ML'RI'HY. Tripled off Williams, of Detroit, on Sept. 21, hit scoring three men. Mclnnis has raised more sacrifice flies than any of his teammates, having ten to his credit.

"Stuffy" has batted in 7a runs on hits and live on infield nuts. Barry's total of runs batted in Is fc, t3 of these on Buletles, eight on hacritice lllcs and 17 on Inlleld outs. The reason Barry has put so nianj tallies over In the latter way is that he is the main performer In the double squeeze, which Is a play the Mackmen are featuring this year. Barry has scored two men on an intteld bunt eight times this senson, the play having been worked fiKainst Detroit three times. Boston twice, St.

Louis twice and Washington once Collins has batted In 71 runs this ear and (Udrlng 6'1, no other White Elephant having passed the half ii-n-tury mark. TASSES RECEIVED. Collins 83, E. Murphy 71. B.ikor Mclnnis 43.

WINTER 5 ON MACK'S INFIELD SCORE MANY RUNS! Picking a fieo. StallliiBS, manager of the Boston Nationals, is conversant with the methods of Connie Mack and the Athletics as well us John Mcfiraw and the Giants. In his opinion the (liants will beat the Athletics for several reasons. Mc-Giaw's men ale f.ister on the bases and outclass all the other National league leanu at the hit and run K'ime.

Stalling believes that the (Hants have the (Strongest pitching Ian with Mathewson. Marouard anil Tesreau, seasoned veterans, and I'emnre, a phenomenal newcomer. StnlhnRH also thinks that the New York player will profit by the experience of last year and will not be over-confident. Napoleon Lajole of the Cleve- RANDOM THOUGHTS When the two chocolate drops, Clarke and are In action it the Amphltl In this city on Friday night two more of the colored mltt-s'lngers and whlto hope destroyers will be In action at New York Sam Latm'ford and Joe Jeanette are to box ten rounds at the Garden. Tyrus Ruymund Cobb, hold out, sick man, bunk director, auto salesman, cotton merchant and last but not least, the hlKhest priced ninn In baseball, Is aguln tho leading Hlugffer In the big ring.

Ty's best days are his sick ones, and his best years are tho ones In which ho appears to be handicapped. Like the brook, the more alls and obstructions it has, the harder It run and the more fish In it. Connie Mack may break up his high priced inlleld In the world's series. It la likely that Harry Davis will be on the first bap when hits are necessary. Stuffy has not the ability to hit when hits mean runs.

Then again Connie Is a real live press agent, and he may be only kidding. He is confident that Tlaiik and Bender will be there with the stuff that wins games, but will switch in Sbawkey and Bush. Lapp will do the bulk of the catching, Schang being used for Bender's bat- 1 tery mate. This Is the advance dope. What Mcilillkuddy will really do in the series will be known when the series Is over.

Joe Rivers Is following In the footprints of Jack Johnson. Some footprints, too. by the way. Like the big smoke, Joe has an auto, one of those fast ones. Like John Art, he also gets pinched for speeding.

Now, Tom Mo-Carey has called off his bout with Leach Cross, billed for next Saturday, and barrcj him from all future bouts at his club. Rivers has had quite a lot of attention and has been getting good money in the game. Now he Is getting the reward of the rest of the bunch that do not know enough to keep the buttered side of their toast uppermost. The Driving Club matinee races are always the source txf great Interest among the horse lovers of the city. There Is a lot of good natuied rivalry unions the owners and drivers.

They are Just as jealous us professionals in the matter or t-'ettiiig any advantage possible uer each other. There will be the usual trotting race on Friday, and it is to be enlivened this time be DeWltt. driven by Dick Roche. It Is rumored that- Danger told Etonla fair stories, all the way in from Stonewall, and she promised not to break this time, anil so beat out Irene Dudley.

I ERG 1 THE WINNIPEG TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2, 191 Winner in World Series lands, figures that the Athletics will outclass the Giants.

Lajoie, when last In New York, sized up the rival pennant winners In this way: "The Athletics have six .300 batters and the (Hants one. In 1911 Mack's men hatted Matty and Manpiard successfully. The Athletics are stronger than two years ago and I cannot tlx lire where and the Rube have Improved. I batted agalnBt Bender and Plank recently and I found them Just as effective as ever. I think -Mack has something up his sleeve In the pitching lino.

The Giants may win. mind you, but they've got to Improve In batting at least 50 per cent, to do the trick." SERIOUS UPHEAVAL Claimed Clubs Are Violating Amateur Rules Players Jumping From Team to Team Ottawa, Oct. 1. A serious upheaval la threatened in eastern football. Charges have been flung back and forward to the effect that some of the clubs are violating the amateur rules, ami It la probable that Investigations will be required.

After the Alert game on Saturday last, according to Hamilton papers, Father Stanton and other officers of the otiawas approached Dutch Becker and others with view of having them come to Ottawa. Toronto papers have made capital out of the story with the result that all clubs may be asked to explain. It Ls alleged that IN EASTERN UG One of Mack's scouts who saw the Glunts shut out by Nap Rucker and the Dodgers said after the game: "The Giants seem unable to hit good pitching. I'ay no at- I tentlon to stuff you hear about how Mender and Plank have gone back. They are ready to pitch as well as ever.

But don't forget that we have other good pitchers Whaw-key. Brown. Bush and Houck. Look at the pitching records and you will see Houck rates not far be- hind Walter Johnson in winning percentage, yet he is our poorest pitcher. We are stronger than ever before in batting, fielding and base running.

It would not surprise us to win four out of the first five games." CHARLIE ROBINSON'S RECORD INTERESTING TO BOXING FANS The appended record of Charlie Robinson, the local colored boxer, is pub-: lished for the first time. The big smoke ls very reserved about his ring work and It was with the utmost dlf- Acuity that the record was secured. It is a rather Interesting list. He has had sixty-one bouts, of which he has lost two and has six draws. Of the total only eleven of the bouts have gone ten rounds or over.

The number uf bouts that have terminated in short order are remarkable. To be sure there are no world beaters In the list. There does not appear the names of any of the champions but he evidently took them as they came, having travelled quite a lot In the six years he haa been in the game. He ls a young man yet, being only 24 years of age. There is nulte a contrast between his development and that of his opponent in Friday night's bout.

Robinson is built on proportionate, lines from his heels to his head, whllei Clarke ls more on the boxer's lines, with light legs and heavy shoulders. Roth have the punch and It appearst that they will have equal trouble ir getting in close enough to keep up their past reputation in the matter of short bouts. Charlie "Spike" Robinson.

Idnlio. clubs In the Inter-provlnclal league have coaxed players from town to town through offers of good positions, while the Inter-colleglate clubs have held out free tuition as the bait to their football stars. The lnter-provlnclal governors will likely look into it.

Saturday afternoon will see the Canadian rugby season officially opened. Of course, the city leagues and the Junior O.R.F.LI. settled down to do business lust Saturday. The Big Four senior season opens the same day with Argos ut 'tigers and Ottawa at Montreal. The Senior O.R.F.U.

and the Intercollegiate Seniors hit the trail to victory or defeat a week later. Argos are up against their toughest game first crack out of bux. If they cun defeat the "Jungle Terrors" In Hamilton, their chances of another championship are. decidedly bright. Ottawa Amalgamated, originally regarded as the learn to beat, has not produced anything which looks like championship calibre on paper and the papers down that way have shut up their anle-seasun championship talk.

In fact, the teum nt the capital looks only passing fair, Montreal even looks a little better than Ottawa, because the winged wheel outllt was coming along at a nice clip lust fail, and there were Ujts of good Intermediate' players coming up for them to strengthen up with this year. From all reports they have taken full advantage of the material. Right now the Tigers look to have the htrongest hand in the Big Four. Argos have a great rear guard, and If the wings are up to last year's standard they will! have to be reckoned with at all stages. Varsity looks very strong In the ln-i tercolleglate series.

McGIU'h championship team seems to be pretty well shot to pieces, queen's and Royal Military College are unknown quantities. DIDN'T RECOGNIZE PACKIE The New York World tells a new and rather good story about Packie McFarland. It seems that Packie was paying a visit to some friends In Say-ville, L.I., and while there went Into a local gymnasium. Two youngsters with pugilistic aspirations were box-4ng, and he was invited to don the gloves with one of them, neither of the boxers having the slightest Idea as to his Identity. Packie, without hurting the lad, put on the speed pedal and showed them some of his dazzling work, but he almost dropped dead when the bout was over.

His opponent said: "Say, young fellow, why don't Sing Her you bo In for boxing. I'll bet ynu coma lick some of these regular professionals." Packie admitted the Joke was on him, and he never told the Savvllle boys Just who they had seen at work. CREATES SENSATION BY FAVORING DIVORCE Southampton, Oct. 1. The Very Rev.

Herbert Henson, dean of Durham, created a sensation at the Church of England congress tonight by a speech In which he openly approved divorce. He declured that the full significance of the growth of the movement In favor of divorce was not to be explnlned by an outbreak of licentiousness. Its strength lny In the fact that It gave expression to the distinctly "Christian factor of Belf-respect that would not acquiesce In a situation which actually became degrading." It was an error, he said, to fasten attention on divorce statistics, as if any considerable Importance attached to them. What really mattered was tho slanders ot personal purity. The audience listened with some show of uneasiness to Dean Benson's views nnd were manifestly relieved when he concluded.

Other delegates Insisted that the church must maintain the doctrine of the permanency of marrluges. AGAINST COMMISSION GOV'T. Minneapolis, Sept. 30. Minneapolis 1 Pnlai'tuH lh form of government by an overwhelm ing voie.

Try it I FRISCO PUTS LID ON "BftRBARY COAST' San Francisco, Oct. 1. The Bnrharj Coast of San Francisco, known to tourists the world over, celebrated Its final passing last night with a revel that packed Its resorts to suffocation and thronged its streets with thousands of lookers-on.

Promptly at midnight the police commissioner's ruling preventing the further sale of liquor by women went Into elTect and In a liiBt effort to prolong the night life that has made the "coast" notorious since pioneer days, there was a sudden switch from cocktails to grape Juice. The police permitted this subterfuge last night, hut the word went forth that hereafter only "straight saloons" from which women will be barred either as entertainers or as visitors, are to be permitted, regardless of the nature of the drinks served. Resort owners themselves admit that few of the thirty or more prententlous places will survive this onslaught. Between five and eight hundred women and girls suddenly thrown on their own resources affords a problem that the reform forces that forced thn closing of the Barbary Coast are striving to meet. Club women petitioned the police commission to postpone the execution of Its order until work could be provided for this army of unemployed, but the petition was denied.

Homes have been provided for a number, but majority must solve the problem of maintenance for themselves. OKI us i ness. iclann. x. jm vV-' George Nichols, K.O., 1 round, i Grangevtlle, Idaho.
