Umpire Swartwood gave ua the worst of a couple of decisions in the first ihnin? and it put us out of the game. Chummy Gray, who was pitching, last heart and all the rest 'lost their nerve.

The result was an awful beating when we should have won easily; After the game I told Swartwood that he had put us out of the game before we got started but all the satisfaction I got from him was: 'You're like all the rest; when you get beat you look for some excuse and you generally light on the umpire."

GOOD RACES FOR TONIGHT BEST CARD OF THE SEASON ARRANGED BY THE PRESS CYCLING CLUB.

Club enthusiasm is liable, very liable to run rife at the electric light races at the Buffalo Athletic Field this even, ing when Kay Duer, the sturdy Park-sider, and Al Newhouse of thi Ramb-lers, meet in a 20-mile motar paced race, the event marking particularly the advent of Duer into the professional ranks. Buffalo always has been a dity with club sentiment unusually well de veloped and when two suchj populai men as Dutr and Newhouse meet there is bound to be something doing in the line of rooting. The friends of Duer are confident that victory will beihls and I are wagering considerable on pis pros-! pects. Newhouse has secured; six-uay Miller to take a seat on the mijitor tan-I dem and this will make the rice more interesting-. Miller's riding mate wi.l be E.

The first heat of this great match will be put on promptly at o'clock and this means the opening of the evening's sport.

N. Aug. 2. "It hard lines." remarked Willlaim Brady; "that I cannot be left alone fjr a little while. I have come all the Tay down here for the purpose of getting ajway from the thousand and one people whp want ta see me regarding the coming fight, and what we are going to do wheri Fitzsim- i mons and Ruhlin have gone through this little act on the 10th." Great bi Jim Jeff- ries sat smiling beside his chief.

"Well, I anyhow. Mr. Brady," remarked the re i portsr, "what do you think the outcome of the Fitzsimmons-Ruhlin boud will Mr. Brady's blue eyes did a sidestepping, blinking and other things, and for reply took a coin out of his, pocket; and said: "Heads. Fltz: tails, jSus." It came heads.

Brady, "wp intend to be ready for anything that may happen; Jim has been a good boy during my absence, and is in fairly good iforro now, but I have brought him. homei a present from Paris that will please him." Here Jim's broad, good-humored iface did ai grin that could be heard for ai mile, and looked cautiously around, but there was no one about, so the reporter waited anx iously for an explanation. He had not long to wait, for Brady dug djDwn in his pocket and raked out a picture of a genr tleman in full fighting war paiht. "That's him," he said, and made a dive for the bit of pasteboardi "I won't do a thing, to him," he almost shrieked. Then Mr.

Brady revealed his isecret. one he has closely guarded for! four days (since his return from "I have brought Jim a French boxer, arid he is hot stuff. He can kick like mule, and still keep my boy going like a windmill to keep clear from his long legrs. When Jim gets used to the froggy way fighting we shall go to Paris and take bn all comers at any game." i "There is one thing." said Jirfi, "I would like on contradict.

He fixed the place up, ut good people on the stage, furnished them with his Broadway orchestra and substituted a ladies' orchestra jhich he discovered ir New- York and jwhich is certainly "making good" at thi?

Nate Fenton loaned his orchestra (men) for the occasion and the meifry jingle of the cash register and harmjonyfrom the orchestra blended sweetljy on the bar of the ex-champion who as made many warm friends in Buffalo. He deserves his success, and mor, too.

JOHN T. DOUGHERTY, THE former manager of Jack O'Brien, was much pleased when he saw G-iorge Mc-Fadden battering the face ora O'Brien, who' deserted to join Tom Ojj'Rourke's stable. The Knocker tells aJxjut it like this: "If any one could get a look at Jack Dougherty's face after O'Bf-ien had been defeated by McFadden on Mon- day night they would see the most pleasant smile that Dougherty has ever shown in his life. It was nfo, wonder that Dougherty felt happy, fjbr it just tickled him to death to see Oj'Brien re ceive the Dealing ne aid, ana wun a loud yell he shoutetd out: 'That's what O'Brien gets for leaving (He never lost when he was in my and Til bet he. feels sorry now that he left me." This is not the first time tht Dougherty has been able to laugh -at fighters who left him.

for he had the laugh on 'Matty' Matthews, 'Kid' McPartland and Tommy Wrest when thejt were defeated." Dougherty lost O'Brien all right but he evidently hasn't lost any b( his self esteem. "I WAS MUCH INTERESTED IN what THE TIMES had to sayjj ibout the Buffalo players losing their njerve when they see Umpire Cantillon onfthe field," said Jack Rowe yesterday. 'ISome people may not believe 'here is) Anything in it, but there is a great deiai in I have played ball and I know it- I remember when I tvas with the Buffalo team we in Providence one We, had i His Debut N. C. A.

OFFICIALS HAVE COME out (f their trance and something, (orr.ethlng that "has- or will create a sensation over the country. They have discovered that at least two of th- ir riders have-been faking races and getting bets down oh the one fixed to win. If the N. C. A.

officials keep their eyes open they may find se-vera! ether cases that will afford sensations when they are investigated. The N. C. A. board of control met at Hartford, on Tuesday, and did a lot of things.

They discovered that Jay Eaton Orlando Stevens fixed their recent irnkt oh at the Vails-burg, N. track so that Eaton was to win. and all on the inside were to bet their money that way, but Eaton seeing a chance to make more money so he quietly tipped off a few choice friends and told them to, bet on The race came off and each won a heat as planned. Eaton was to win the deciding: heat, but he hung back. Stevens refused to cross the tape first, but Eaton foxily fouled him and the rereree awarded the race to Stevens.

It was one grand double cross. After an investigation the X. C. A. board suspended both Eaton and Stevens pending a hearing.

If the charge made against them can be proved they -will, of course, be blacklisted. Both riders are now on their way to Paris to -represent America in the world's championships. They will hear of their suspension as soon as they arrive. They cannpt ride in Paris until the ban' is lifted by the N. C.

A. The board fined Floyd McFarland and he cannot ride until the money is paid. It is charged that McFarland, with or without the consent of the American Racing Cyclists' Union, arranged to have several riders of. the professional class appear at meets recently at Washington and Baltimore. McFarland agreed that Eaton, Stevens, Cooper, Taylor, himself and others would race-at Baltimore, on July 20th and at Washington on the following day.

McFarland failed to ful-fiir his pars of the contract, and it is said that the promoters who had charge of the meets in these cities lost heavily. J. C. Kennedy, the manager of Jimmy Michael, was also fined $100 for reprehensible conduct in interfering with the instructions of the referee and using improper language toward the same official at the Michael-Munro contest, held at the Hills Grove, R. track on July 29th.

Babcock and Vetter, the pacemakers inJthe Michael-Munro were also fined $25 each for refusing to obey the reeee's instructions. These fines must be paid before August 6th. The tangle among the racing men reminds veterans of the old fight between the racing board of the League of American Wheelmen and Sanger, Titus and Cabanne. The assertion was made that the men had "fixed" a race at St. Louis, and suspension followed.

All of the men were in the employ of Spalding at the time, and the fight was a bitter one. The National Cycle Association board also made the. following rulings: Voted, that the national amateur championships for the season of 1903 be contested in Buffalo, the arrangements attd supervision of the same to be placed in the hands of N. E. Tur-geon.

member for District B. Voted, that water jackets are permissible on motor pacing machines within regulation width. Also voted that pedals on pacing machines need not necessarily revolve. Voted that a referee may use his discretion about taking action against riders who delay a program by not promptly appearing on the track. William Smith of Buffalo is transferred to the professional class for selling a prize.

F. Roecoe, Pittsfield, 'and Dave Coburn, Newark, X. J. Applications for reinstatement to amateur class efused: Harry J. Ruble, Buffalo, N.

Broad Brook, T. E. Tarment. Foxboro, and Daniel Daley, Taunton, Mass. AFTER THINKING IT ALL OVER .1 am 'forced to declare that I do not take much stock in the fight arranged take place between Corbett and McCoy.

The manner in which the match was made, convinces me that the Kid and Jim are not on the level and then I don't believe that McCoy can get into shape for a fast, bruising" battle. Even if he could Corbet would still have a pnaue otst ot tiie argument, yet there are many who have watched both ters who say the break is even In. the matter of hitting powers, McCoy's record shows more actual knockouts that of Corbett, this almost proving that he can hit harder than fhe ex-champion. Corbftt's treat Showing against Jeffries has virtually puilled him Oct oi the slrma-h nf "ha' and has won for him merited plaudits of those who pay court to- King Fistiana. If all that has -been said of Corbett and McCoy during ihe past ten days is half true (1 suppose it is) Mc Coy is a pretty cheap sort of a sport.

A -clever writer on tiw Chicago Journal sized the thing up pretty well when he wrote this version of the recent encounter between the Kid and Jim: I'1: Smooth Tim to Mr. Wise Kid 'Now, wait till everybody is looking this way and then I'll begin to talk loud. We 11 abuse each other for a few minutes and when the gang crowds around 111 call you down hard for telling peo-pie we're matched tc fijrht. Then you must tell me I've been smoking and 1 you liar, and then you can call me one right back. Then 1 11 turn loose a swing with my right for -our head.

It'll come slow and be easv to Af'er I miss we'll go to a clinch and tip over a fable or two. Then Johnny Considine will split us out" Break away easy, for Johnny isn't very Bing-, ur ends will keep us apart take us away. Of course we will j-still, want to fight but we must listen tr reason and go.

Sam, what are you g-oing to do about it? There is little chance of that A neu st 18th opening being postponed to satisfy McFadden, and Terry mustn't be accused of cowardice, either. What an effect fig-hting must have on the brain! There's poor Tom Sharkey who, before the fight with Ruhlin, was as rational a thinker as existed in pugdom. Now Tom says things almost incredible. He has told of his trotter being able to go in on me peea w'ay Tom, don't you know there notning on the Speedway that can do it. Become extravagant if you like, but dem't make such guesses.

When hard luck fallows a man, no matter what business he may be attached to, it generally sticks to him fo. some time and in a great many cases results- in the unfortunate getting gray. This might be applied to Tom O'Rourke, who has certainly grown numerous gray hairs during the past few months. These gray locks have been caused by the misfortune which O'Rourke has had in that time by having three of his fighte.s, namely, Sharkey, Jack O'Brien and George Dixon, all defeated. This is; certainly a hard blow to O'Rouike, and if his only fighter left, Joe Walcott, should meet with a reversal there is no telling what O'Rourke might do.

Don't iet a little thing like this worry you, Tom, for you'll be a long time dead, so enjoy life as well as you can until your time comet. REMOVAL OF THE N. CITY TICKET OFFICE. Beginning August 1st, the city office -if th" W. N.
