WILL TY COBB
ASK FO!
His Three Year Contract, Galling
For $27,000, Ends Soon.
HE MAY DEMAND $50,000.
It Is Asserted That Detroit 8tar Wants
This Amount For a New Three Year
Agreement He Is Greatest Drawing
Card In Baseball.
Dy TOMMY CLARK.
Thta Is Ty Cobb's last year under the
$27,000 contract which he signed three
years ojjo with the Detroit club. Bo
foru tlie great ball player dons a uni
form next spring he will have to bo
signed to a new agreement, and It Is
needless to say that this will cull for
decidedly more salary than he Is at
present drawing.
Tlerc Is considerable speculation
among ball players and baseball men
as to the amount Cobb will demand
TmtEB vtira-a op rr oocc
la Ida next contract, but th.it It will
call for a formidable Incroaso Is gen
erally amended. Cobb kj Just do good
ft ball player now ae ho wiw threo
yoara ago. In fact, ho- fa pxobaUy bet

tt la not hla ulJllty wtilch dlrocUy de
mands an lncreaws, but tho fact that
Cobb la today tha grwitout drawing
card to baoobnll. Thoro la no donbt
that Cobb as an indtvidunl draws Bonio
thing like fOWJO Into tho coffers of tho
Detroit dob during a ccason.
Cobb Is mum mi tho Hubjoct, only to
pay that If ho pluya next year ho will
I bo Will paid. While thero in nothing
authentic about it, it fa aeaertod that
I ho propoBoa to domand a throo yonr

In tho lust ngw-AthleOcB ncrles In

NATIONALS ARE A SENSATION.
Washington Club Is Fighting Every
Inch of the Way.
The one big feature of the year hn
been the flashy stand Griff and his clan
nro making for Washington, a cltj
without flnit division tradition. Hur
led In seventh place through an aver
age of eleven seasopH and Jeered as
another lizzie, this club lias already
furnished one of the greatest of tho
gamo's surprises. There has been noth
ing like It In baseball, and you can
delve back to the day when Cy Young
was bat boy for the Holl Hornets.
The Senators have caught the vital
spark. Griff has pumped the old nm
blah Into their throbbing bosoms, and
this explains the mystic problem above
tlio worth even of a Johnson nnd a
Groom by tho adding of a Moellcr or
a Gandll.
The vital spark Is the one secret of a
pennant tight. I-et It fade out and tbo
argument Is over. The Senators have
shown consistent ability nnd above all
the heart to rally after losing ground
nnd again to rush the line which hurl
ed them back. They have made his
tory and deserve the highest pralso
which tho Fjiortlve Hock may have to
give.
FOREIGN GOLFERS COMING.
Braid, Vardon, Taylor and Massy, Pro
fessionals, Will Vicit America.
Former Massachusetts Champion
JohnG. Audcrson, now golfing abroad,
writes home that tho Culled States
links are to be Invaded before the end
of tho present season by four famous
professionals from tho other side.
These players nro tho former British
champions, James Braid, J. II. Taylor
and Harry Vardon, and the French
crnck Arnand Massy. As Harold n.
Hilton has promised to come over with
a band of amateurs to defend the
American national title he won against
Fred Ilerreshoff at Apawamls last fall,
It Is seen that American followers of
the royal and ancient game are in for
some rare treats.
The Invasion will lo a welcome one,
as Americans can still learn a lot from
tho giants from the other side. How
ever, tho visitors from tho professional
ranks will get nomo rude surprises.
The native born pros, have improved
wonderfully during tlie iast few years,
and more than oixs could now make a
game interesting to the best of tho
Britons.

Hirers begged Promoter Tom McCnrey'

the day before a boxing contest at tha

After calling attention to the remarka
ble manner in which Sam Paul, the Ram
bler, has escaped the clutches of tho law
during tho laBt year, when ho was nrrest
el Bcvcral times, l'ollco Commissioner
Waldo of Now York made public a list of
thirteen of Paul's arrcets from June 2,

LITTLETON TO DEFEND BECKER?
Congressman Has Been Urged as Coun
sel For Accused Polioeman.
New York, Aug. C It seems likely
that Congressman Martin W. Lit
tleton will be asked to take charge of
Lieutenant Pecker's defense. Friends
of Pecker in the police department who
nro raising n defense fund of approxi
mately $50,000 are urging tho lieuten
ant to retain Mr. Littleton.
The news that Littleton, whose last
big criminal caso was the defense of
llarry K. Thaw in Thaw's second trial,
will bo the lawyer for Becker leaked
out after Hobcrt II. Elder, who ap
peared, with John llart, for Becker
when the lieutenant was arraigned be
fore Judge Mulqueen today, withdrew
from the caso. Mr. Elder, it is known,
was not satisfied with his position nnd
decided to get out
Tho rtory that waa told after Mr. El
der withdrew was to this effect the
money to pay for Becker's defense Is
to come not from tlio accused police
man, but from friends of his in the io
lice department who haro decided for
whatorer reason to stand by him.
Some of them wanted Becker to retain
William T. Jerome. But Becker bucked
at Jeromo because ho had been told
that Jeromo was a close friend of l'o
llco Commissioner Waldo. Becker
knows that he can expect no assistance
of any sort from the commissioner.
