This was part of a vigorous statement
made today by President Harry A. Pulliam,
from his office, two floors above that of the
New York baseball club in the 8t. James

their checks for yesterday’s game that

a few things In regard to the notion of the

JUDGE TYSON INDORSED
FOR SUPREME BENCH.
By Private Leased Wire.
Boston, Aug. 8.—Al Kaufman, of Callfor*
nla, was given tho decision over Fred Brad
ley, of Soxbury, In tho fifth round of their
15-round bout at the Lincoln Athletic Club,
Chelsea, last night.
After about a minute of boxing In the
fifth round Kaufman droT© Bradley Into
hla corner with a scries of left and right
gwlugs. Bradley did not know how to get
out of the corner, and be was hurt euough
to convince Bradloy that he wanted
more, Flo went down on allfonrs and did
not get up within tho count Bradley's
qnlek defeat was a gernt surprise. It wss
apparent that Bradley hod a bad attack of
stngo fright, either because of Kaufman's
greater sire or because of hts reputation.
Hod Bradley put up £a!f the battle he
made against Jerry Gaines the result might
have been altogether different. But poor
as his showing was, his admirers Insist It
was better thnn Kaufman's.
Kaufman failed to show cleverness, gen
eralship or hitting strength.
IJarry Boker, the amateur lightweight
champion, earned a decision over Frankie
Nell at the end of twenty rounds In Los
Angeles last night. His cleverness won
him the battle, which was almost an exact
duplicate of the Attell. fight.
From tbo fourth round to the end of the
fight >*11 was bathed In blood, and his
right eye went out of commission after
tho tenth.
While Baker lacks the punch, he has the
ability to tnke one, and he weathered
oral terrific swings between the ninth and
twelfth rounds.
Nell was a favorite at 1 to 2, with no Ba
ker money In eight.
Bennie Ynnger nud Kid Herman are In

Is to take placp at Indianapolis Friday
