Extra Sporting Page White Would Have Won Title If Not For Early Distractions
The article argues Willie White could have defeated Willie Ritchie in a championship bout if not for refereeing and weight disputes. It critiques the 133-pound limit, notes White weighed 133 1 2 pounds, and discusses the lack of a universal world weight standard for title matches. It predicts future moves, highlights Ritchie’s advantage, and mentions Freddy Walsh as a possible challenger.

COMMENT ON FLAG RACE IN BIG LEAGUES
Profitable week last week with Phillies and Cardinals. Marquard and Demarcé struggled, Math ewson won both his starts, and the Big Train gave up 26 hits. Luderus Wilson and Wingo homered off the veteran. Reds and Pirates look to the future with Marsans shining as a top NL outfielder. The Pirates’ slide continues but they remain in reach of the lead. In the American League the race tightens as Washington pressures the Macks and the Tigers rejoin the fray. Ty Cobb returned, boosting the lineup in extra innings. the Yankees keep hitting but need more reliable bats. Frank Farrell openly bets on finding real batters.
