New Orleans. I**.. Auir. 30.—There
are ore more cripple* to be added to
the list, nnd Hilly Smith In thinking
about adding a surgeon, a chest of
medicine* and ambulance and a litter
to his traveling equipment.
Morse's absence lx not new*, but Sid
Smith Is about two-thlrda sick t«Hlny—
malaria, maybe. And then Hoffman
has a badly bruised Anger, which ren
ders his work (Milnful.
Manager Smith expects Morse to
show up In time for tomorrow's game,
but the prompt appearance of Whltey
Doc Childs has been sent home. The
big fellow appears to be about all In,
so far as pitching Is concerned, thin

yesterdny early In the game.
The Jordan case Is due to come up
today, the charge being netlt larceny,
brought by C. Prank because of that
now celebrated rubber ball Incident.

Goldfield, Nev., Aug. 30.—The camp
today Is talking of tho way Manager
Hilly Nolan contrived to pare nn ex
tra pound or two off the fighting weight
of one Joe Gans.
The sports here, who, by the way,
aTe not tossing bouquets at the mild-
mannered young man who guides the
ring destinies of the "Terrible Dane."
They considered him too unbending.
They think- he crowded Gans a little
too far and Incidentally ran n monu
mental bluff on the enterprising ath
letic organisation at the Goldfield Ath
letic Club. But Billy don’t mind this
temporary evidence of dlsfAVor. "I
am In this business to do the beat I
can for Nelson, and I am not over
looking anything," he said.
Well, It's all over now, and maybe—
maybe—the Goldfield promoters will
have no more stumbling blocks to hnr-
rass them between now nnd Labor Day.
Of course I*arry Sullivan Is holding
Guns and Is beyond doubt loyul to the
colored lad’s Interest, but the trick of
piloting a pugilist Is not learned In a
week or a month. What Gans wantef
In the present Instance was some one
of trained intelligence In prlxe fight
manipulation. You may cause a shud
der to link the names of Al Hereford
nnd Gans, but If Hereford hnd as
sisted Gans In the innklng of this
match the negro would not have to
knock under on almost every point.
Neither would he have been made to
attend meetings lasting far In the
night nnd subject himself to the ner
vous tension Involved In bitter wrang
ling while his prospective opponent was
curled up In the blankets asleep. The
question now Is how will a new ar
rangement about the weight affect
Gans?

ASSAULTED
Special to The Georgian.
Jacksonville, Fin., Aug. 30.—Umpire
Byron was assaulted at the Aragon

The trouble arose over a decision
In yesterday’s game here. Augusta
lost.
Both players were fined $25 by Pres
ident Boyer, of the league.

rylng 133 pounds of fighting weight,
133 pounds of muscle, gristle and bone,
as Referee Siler called It.
Instead, he will have to weight at,
least a pound and a half less, and
even at that. It will exercise hla In
genuity to devise a costume that, to
gether with a pair of ring brogues, will
weigh as little as a pound and a half.
He will do It, of course, for he must
protect his forfeit of $6,000, but what a
lanky, rlbby specimen of human fight
ing man he will be. The change will
not affect his strength to any octant,
but It will surely affect the betting.
There Is no doubt of Nelson's ability
to do 133 pounds and n pound or so
less, but considering that Gans has
much more to lose, the betting will
probably change.
Gans, while angered at the turn of
affairs, has not lost heart. He says It
means a little harder work and closot
figuring, but he will do 133 in battle
array and whip Nelson to a frazzle.
Nolan professes to believe that the
difference, whatever It may he, will
not Jx* bearing on the result of the
fight It Is simply a matter of making
the best terms, says Billy, and he does
not mind taking the whole world Into
his confidence and declaring his belief
thAt Nelson can whip Gans at any
weight.
"I make a study of this business."
said Nolan, "and I know that Gans has
weighed as low as 131 |n other fights.
Of course he will be stronger with a
few more pounds on him, nnd I am
free to confess that Battling Nelson
would be stronger ut 136 thnn at 133.
That aside from the question.
"Championship rules call for a ring
side welghln, a fact which Gans' man
agers might have overlooked," sold
Nolan.
"1 know Nelson could make the notch
without trouble and I was determined
that the other fellow should also."
Nolan says he figures on the defeat
of Gans by what happened In hla fight
with Walcott.

Bcralr McCay, for two years star
utility worker of the Southern League,
nnd one of the most popular players
that ever wore an Atlanta uniform,
pitched a no-hit came for hie Baton
Rouge team Tueeday against Vicks
burg. For nine Innings he worked out
In great shape, winning by the ecore
of 3 to 0.
Not only wa, his pitching remark
able, but iterate also got four hits out
of ss many times up, stole a baee,
scored two runs, handled live fielding
chances without an error and started
off a double play.
All that was In the flrst game of a
double-header. In the second game
Heroic played second base, where he
handled ten chances without an error,
got a double and a single out of live
times up and scored a run.
It was the greatest day of baseball
MrCay has ever known—greater even
than the time he got two home runs,

DEFEAT WEST END.
PIRA TES GET ONE OF SERIES,
SPLITTING DOUBLE-HEADER
By PERCY WHITING.
Shreveport. La.. Aug. 30.—Atlanta split even with Shreveport on the
double-header yesterday afternoon, thereby taking the series, three games
to one, just as at Memphis and Little Rock.
A loud outburst of swaU by both teams In the first Inning of the first
game tvas followed by an encore on the part of the Atlanta team In the
third, giving the Wanderers the battle by the score of 9 to 4, Both Beeker
and Sparks were shot to pieces and dragged from the field by the Red
Cross Society, Frits and Hughes replacing them on the firing line. Each
was effective.
The second game was a contest almost devoid of swatlets. Hickman
held Atlanta safe at all times, while Doc Childs allowed two hits and one
run In the first Inning. He was replaced In the third by Baxter Sparks
and after that the Pirates got only one hit.
It was a queer thing—the Influence Sparks had over the Piratical
swatsmen. In the Initial Inning of the opening game he gave up three
hits and tu'o bases on baits, yielding four runs, and was yanked out.
when only one man had been retired. Then a couple of hours later hs
was absolute master of the field. But baseball Is a game of queer things.
Atlanta's run getting In the first game waa as follows:
First Inning—Winters singled. Crosier filed out. Smith tripled: Winters
scored. Fox singled; Smith scored. Hoffman singled and stole second.
Fox scored on a passed ball. Jordun walked. Archer filed out to center,
Hoffman scoring. Jordan out In attempt to steal second. Four hits: four
runs.
Third Inning—Fox safe on error at first. Hoffman out on bunt to
first. Fox to second. Jordan singled. Fox scored. Archer safe at first
on error. Jordan to second. Evers Hied out. Hughes singled. Jordan
and Archer i scored. Winters hit by ball. Crozler walked. Bases full.
8mlth singled. Hughes scored. Fox walked. Winters forced In. Hoff
man groundered to short. Fox out at second. Three hits: five runs.
The second game was a hoss of another color. Shreveport scored the
only run of the game In the following manner:
Qvans singled, but was forced out by Kennedy. Absteln walked. Oraf-
flus groundered to short and Absteln was retired at second, but Kennedy
got to third, and scored on Daley's single.
Atlanta's only chance to score came In the ninth Inning. With two
men out. Sid Smith singled and went to second on a passed ball. Then
Fox walked, but Hoffman Hied out.

American team for Great Britain. The
accident resulted In the loss of a finger,
and prevented Wright, then the atrong-
