Philadelphia Is claimed to be hot after Pitcher Donahue, of St. Louis. Buck Ewlng says he belloves that Bal timore will win tho pennant with five games to snare. And now they claim that Cy Voorhls has signed with St. Louis. We'vo a claim on that lad. Wllkos-Barre Record. Olllo Beard has hypnotized everybody out west and they think he is simply a wonder at Detroit. Wilkes-Barro Record. Pitcher German says tho Eastern league first division teams aro much stronger than tho class B team in the National. Buffalo Times. It Is universally conceded that Anson has a Jewel in Callahan. He Is a good fielder, fair batter and very fast on the bises.-Now York World. Koriran duplicated Monday tho feat performed by McFarlan at Provldenco re cently. Although batted out of the first game he went In and beat tho Bisons in the second. Tho Phlladclphlas new second base man, Abbattlchlo, halls from Gettysburg, Pa., and Is pronounced a comer. lie broke a bone In tho first gamo und will bo un able to play again this season, Pitcher Eddlo Murphy, cf Auburn, Tues day becamo 1i censed at a decision, and throwing the ball over the grand stand he went to the bench. Later on he took a car and went home. Ho will probably be blacklisted by the management. Two famous old-timers are located at Paterson. Tho only Nolan, who was a ter ror to bastmen as a seigeant of pollco there, and Jim McCormlck. who has dropped tho 'horses, Is credited with own ing tho finest palate-moistening establish, ment In tho city. Mike Tleman has become accustomed to his goggles, and faces tho sun In New York's left field without flinching. Alto gether ho Is playing the best left field that New York ever saw, and the Giants' outor guard will comparo with that of any of the twclvle troupes In tho league. "Dummy" Hoy Is one of the handiest center fielders in the league, His Inabil ity to kick on a decision helps make him a model player. There are uinptros un kind enough to wish that some other lu minaries of tho diamond had been re stricted to tho "finger tongue" by a, wiso Providence, Von der Aho talks very emphatically of turning Billy Hallmon, the present man ager and second baseman of the St. Louis, loose upon the cold world before next sea son begins. There are ubout live other National league clubs that would tike to neo Billy guarding the second cornor for them. MoKoan and Child will go to Philadel phia at tho close of the noftson In ex change for Delehanty and Third Baseman Lave Cross, of the Quaker team. Tobeau will movo Wallaco over to short and play Cross at third. Delehanty will play In center for Cleveland, fiockalexls going to right and Flckertng being reserved for utility man. William Mains, released by Springlleld, will bo seen In a Buffalo uniform next season. Burns let him go to cut down ex penses and now ho wishes he had him again. But Willie will pitch for Toronto for tho remainder of this season. Mana ger Rowo says Mains is in poor shape Just now and would not strengthen tho Bisons. Buffalo Times. Do Wolf Hopper Is a. dally contributor nt the Polo grounds box office. Tho old fever was too Btrong to stay away very long. "When tho Giants win;" Bays old El Capltan, "I rejolco as a loyal New Yorker. When tho loso I also rejolco, be cause Frcedman got it in tho neck. So you oco I'm sure of a delightful state of mlpd, no matter how the winu oiows." watch Fred ClarKo's quick, nervous, encrgetlo movements on the ball field to day and you will easily understand tho Bceret of his euocess as a ball player. Ho never quits, seems to enjoy tho gamo for tho game itself, and has instilled a great deal of his spirit Into tho other members of tho Loulsvlllo tram. Fred's work stands out In bold relief when compared with that of tho other Colonels. Ex change. AMATEUR BALL NOTES.

"Lato' Fonton, Jumped Into tho Ring nnd Avers Tlint tho interference Was ProTl outly Arrnngnd'-ltynn Was Doing tho Most Fighting and Apparently Had tho nest of It Tho 3,500 Spectators Wero Very Much Dis-gustcd--ltofereo Slier Decides It Was a Draw. Syracuse, Sept. 8. Police interference put nn end to the Tommy Ryan-Kid McCoy fight in the fifth round here to night when Ryan was doing the major ity of the work and chasing McCoy all over the ring, inflicting a series of wick ed Inside upper cuts. Although by no means going, McCoy was having tho worst of the contest, when Inspector O'Brien rang the gong and Referee George Slier, of Chicago, sent the men to their corners and an nounced the bout a draw. McCoy play ed a lively tatoo on Ryan's Jaw with his left in the first two rounds, but after that "Tommy" resorted to in fighting and did much better at this method. WHAT REFEREE SILER SAID. George Slier said to a representative of the Associated Press after the. row had subsided: "Ryan had the better of the last round, but there was only one decision possible under the circumstan ces and I gave it. There was no neces sity of police interference, as both men were strong enough to continue the fight." Each man declared that he had the other whipped. "Late" Fenton, Mc Coy's backer, created a scone by Jump ing Into tho ring and shouting that the thing had bc-en fixed. "This man." ho said, pointing to Police Inspector O'Bri en, "knew at 6 o'clock that he wtos go ing to stop the fight and I knew it too." There was a scene of the greatest confusion, and had not a strong force of policemen been on hand trouble would have ensued. THEY BELIEVED FENTON. There were 3,500 people In the rink, with McCoy a strong favorito in the betting, and many of them thought that they had been buncoed and did not hesitate to express their feelings. The betting at the ring-side was ten to seven In favor of McCoy, the Mc Coy contingent refusing to come down to the odds wanted by the Ryan people of two to one. Preliminary to the Ryan-McCoy fight a bout between Norman Selby, Kid McCoy's brother, and "Patsy" Haley, was very short, lasting but three rounds. Selby had the better of it all through the fight, doing all the leading and knocking Haley down repeatedly. Haley was down for eight seconds In the third round and when he got up Selby was so much In evidence that they were sent to their corners by Referee Brooks and the decision given to Selby. Hoy Killed by ltock from ninstlng. Hazlcton, Sept. 8. Joseph Moranl, an Italian boy, this afternoon was stand ing near his home, when a large piece of rock descended from the sky, strik ing him.
