DR. J. D. HUGHES
C HICAGO, May 10— Not being
swayed by any prejudices of see-
\ tion. color or previous condition,
we should figure John Robinson. Bat
Nelson’s hustling manager, in a fine
position to judg** of the merits of a
fighter, big or little, and when John
says that Luther McCarty is the real
thing in the heavyweight division we
are inclined to think that John’s opin
ion is worth considerably more than
mere passing mention. Robinsori was
in New York the other evening when
Luther lambasted Frank Moran, the
Pittsburg heavyweight, for ten sharp
rounds, and he got an excellent line
on Luther's ring work. John’s opin
ion is all the more .valuable since he
isn’t friendly with Billy McCarney.
Luther’s manager, and hasn’t been
for some time.
* * *
J OHN isn’t exactly ’’all smoked up”
over Luther, hut he figures him to
be easily the bert of the while heavy
weights of the day, says his record
proves it and sincerely believes that
the future of a year or so will dem
onstrate it beyond the shadow' of a
doubt. Listen to some of John’s
chatter about the big man from Ne
braska: “We had been told for
months that Frank Moran was one
of the very best of the latest crop of
big fellow?, and thf* Eastern friends
of Dan McKetrlck. who manages him.
believed it. Naturally after being
matched with McCarty his work was
watched with the closest attention.
+ * •
uiVTOW comes one of the interesting
4-v parts of the whole tale. After
McCarty had bested Moran, and had
done the job up beautifully, as I
thought, he didn’t get a bit of credit.
He was scolded and nagged for not
actually disposing of Moran more de
cisively. and that, too. in the face of
previous boosts to the effect that
Moran was fine of the very best of
them all. Not a bit of consistency
to that line of work, if Moran was
one of the best, then McCarty, after
beating him. must naturally be one
of the very best. Catch the line of
reasoning 7
• • *
si’T’n my way of doping it out. Mc-
1 Cartv is a man who needs a
lot of actual fighting to keep him fit.
He is a lazy big fellow and inclined
to slow down if lie isn’t punched con
tinually. couldn’t have been at
his best vmh Moran for that reason,
because he had been idle for some
little time previous to that encounter.
I watched the battle carefully and
In common with many other? at the
ringside tried to pick the flaw's in
this big fellow’s work. I couldn’t
find many. Of course he is still a
bit unpolished, but take it from me.
he is picking up the inside stuff rap
idly and i? getting better every time
he works.
* * •
<»DURING the tenth round I saw
him pull a K1d McCoy trick that
enlightened me more than anything
about him. Joe Jeannette, who was
handling Moran, seeing the hopeless
ness of the cause, sent Frank out
to do and die. Frank sailed in and
slammed away like a threshing ma
chine with both arms going wildly.
Luthef* would have been a cherry ripe
sucker to have mixed with him right,
there. Instead, he stepped in close
and let go with his right exactly onto
Moran’s waist line. The punch didn't
travel a foot, but it sunk in and in
stantly Moran was slowed down to
a walk. I doubt if a dozen people
in the crowd saw the punch or real
ized its importance. But Moran did.
It was exactly the right thing at the
right time and convinced me fully
himself in any kind of company."

CHICAGO, May 10.—John J. Mr-
Graw. of the New York Giants,

tour which two big league teams,
made up w holly or partly of Giants
and White Sox. are to make next fall
and winter by signing the contract,in
New York last night. It had pre
viously been signed by President
Comiskey, of the White Sox.
The trip will be on a bigger scale
than the famous baseball tour of
1888. and may carry* 75 or 100 per
sons. Tentative plans have it that
the teams will leave Chicago about
October 15 and play games in the
South and West until they reach Van
couver.
They will sail from Vancouver on
November 5. Japan will he reached
on November 15. and a stay made in

The Reds got an even break in their
series with the Giants, anti if they
continue to play the same kind of hall
they did in Gotham town it’ll be only
a short time before they climb out of
the National League cellar.

The suspension of Stovall has weak
ened the playing strength of the Browns
fully 20 per cent, and the Naps and
\Vhite Sox are moaning because the
Eastern aggregations will have an easy
lime trouncing the St Louis boys.
* * *
But even without Stovall the Browns
can grab off an occasional victory. They
fractured the winning streak of the
Athletics yesterday, driving Pitcher
Houck to the cooling shed in the first
round.
Luderus, the Phillies’ first sacker. aft

cracked out a homer yesterday, which

TECH SECOND
M AR I ST College won the an
nual Atlanta prep track meet
Friday at Marist field with a
total of 52 1-3 points. Marist was
especially strong in the distance runs
and the dashes. Three teams were
entered in the meet—Marist. Tech
High and G. M. A. Tech High was
second with a total of 25 1-3 points,
while G. M. A. brought up the rear

cleared the bar at 9 feet 6 inches.
Meyers, of Tech High, was second
in this event and also beat the for
mer record. Meyers made 9 feet 4
and just barely missed the next
height. Smith, of G. M. A., and Be
dell. of Tech High, were tied with j
10 points apiece for third highest
point winner. Smith had things hifi
own wav in the broad and high i
jumps.
Charlie Alien must have had a. I
grudge against Fowler. In the quar
ter mile run Allen was easily leading,
but held back toward the finish in
order to lot his teammate. Lewis,
who was running second, pass him.
This gave Lewis a total of 16 points,
just one more than Fowler had.
