has been playing a very senrutlonul
game til the iirsl corner for Frank
‘i‘ullHW. .\lr. l’nrrcll announced yew
'terday that he would retain Mullen tor
the time. lint it is understood he will
not keep hitn long.
Mullen was obtained from Lincoln,
New. during the New York's first
swim: around the Western wing of the
American League. He came to (‘hancc
for thirty tittys' trial. The understand
ing was that Mr. Farrell was to pay
$5.5m! [or the youngster if he made
good in fast company.
Mulicn's lute, of course. rests upon
Kraft's ability. The new first base-
man comes with the reputation of ti
slugger. \But he is an untried quan-
tity in the major leugtte. Should he
prove :l disappointment the team will
have Mullen 'to full buck upon, its it is
understood that Mt Furrcll now is
making nrran: ,emcnts to have Lincoln
extend the option pet iod long enough
to permit of limits llltlrtlllf—‘ll trlnl.

Frank Chance is making a serious mis-
take in experimenting turther with
first base material. Mullen is as lino
a fielder as can be found anywhere in
the American League. lie is an unus-
ualiy fast fellow too.
Mullcn’s hittin‘iir hns improved witlt
nimbst evcry gnme. Against Detroit’s
best pitchers yesterday he had three’
hits in seven fillies at bat.
Organized baseball is getting its
bumps regularly of late. The Federal
League won mo impoftant court deci-
sions, the Pla‘yers‘ Fraternity made the
salons back up sndatow the Baseball
Writers' Association of America has
struck the war ti‘stl.
In Philadelphia, Tuesday, the man-
: 'nfiemont’of the Athletics refused to
recognize the writers’ card of two
newspaper men whose paper bulletin-
ed the home game On a scoreboard in
front of the office. After these writers
paid their way into the grounds they
were barred frofn the press box by a
special policeman in the employ of

Just what the terms of L‘ollins’

to discuss. The lull 'i‘iogan,however.
ut‘lirmed the report that L‘ollins‘ hntl
b‘iknod “for a term of years" when he
returned train the special meeting ot‘
the Antcrienn League in New York.
What transpired at the American
League meeting, broguht about as a
result of the slriko threatened by the
fraternity, Manager Muck re-
frained from mentioning. lie, how-
ever. hinted that he was in high nc-
cord with l’rel-‘idcnt'llan Johnson‘s
views on the players' trutcrnity.
Collins, i. is said. is one of the few
mombgrs of the Athletics who had not
ahivcd his signature to u contractthut
assures his playing ih l’hilndclphitt

A majority of the other members of
the team are said to be under con-

BOXING NOTES.
Figtht experts who viewed the John-
son-Moran bout, in Paris. recently, are
unanimous in their opinion that John-
son is practically through us champion
of the world and that the time is ripe
for a, ctlpuble while hope to step in
[it this respect tltm-
mun who can bring the heavyweight
crown to the white race. The gunner
is hardly big enough to wrestle
around the ring with Johnson, forthut
is Johnson‘s only ully now that his
former physical endurance has been
ssppsd by dissipation. A big man who
is ail strong as Jack and who knows
enough about boxing not to go to
sleep in the ring would have more
than an even chance with him. it is
believed. in .hls battle with Moran,
.loltnson'wns logged out before the
bout, was half over. and bud Moran
saved some of his exertion he might.
have knocked the cpnnwion out. As
it wits, he was so intigtted from push~

had all he couldrdo to keep his own
