McFarland Too Demanding For Lewis Bout
New York May 25 Packey McFarland and Lewis match may be discussed soon but unlikely. McFarland’s demands are far beyond the attraction’s value though he would accept for enough money. He is not short of money and earlier talked with Willie Ritchie for Milwaukee bout but vetoed by promoters and due to boxing in Wisconsin. Packey claims a grievance with the Commission and is heavy at over 170 pounds after the Gibbons and Britton era.

Giants Win Streak Among Top Western Tours in Baseball
New York May 25 Historic runs show the Giants’ 13 straight wins rank among major league records, though eight longer streaks exist. After a rough East start the club swept western games beginning May 9 in Pittsburgh, matching a rare feat of winning every game on a western road trip. The record notes similar western triumphs by Washington in 1912 and a 16 game run that ended June 11 in Philadelphia. In official baseball history the Corsicana Fish of the Texas League in 1902 logged 57 games as a landmark minor league standard.
