FRANCE and Russia are carrying on a
desperate filtration and so ostensibly
preparing for future military union
that they may provoke some kind of
retaliatory measures from those who

that the military systems of the two
countries are to be so modified and har-
monized that their respective armies. if
called upon to do SO, may act together
with the least possible friction.

Young Mitchell Settles Reddy in
Thirteen Rounds.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 23.-The fight
tonight between Johnnie Herget.
known as ''Y Dung Mitchell" CALIFORNIA;
representative middleweight pugilist.
and Freddy" Gallagher, the Den
verite, attracted more interest here than
any similar event which has taken place
in this city since the Corbett-Ja Jackson
contest, and the rooms of the new Occi-
dental club were crowded at an early
hour in the evening. The fight was for
a $1,000 purse, of which $3.50 to loser.
The betting was Dri k, and from
it veered to nearly even money
before the fight began. Mitchell Sweight
was announced as 154 pounds His sec
onds were Jack Dempsey and Sam FitZ-
patrick. Gallagher weighed 153 pounds,
and was seconded by Bat MasterSOn and
Jimmie Carroll. Peter Jackson was the
referee. Both men appeared to be in
the pink of condition, Mitchell being
somewhat fleshier than his muscular
opponent.
The battle opened at $3.50 with Gallagher
felnting for an opening and Mitchell break
ing ground. Gallagher got in two hot let's
III the wind and one in they eye. His blows
played havoc with Mitchell's head and wind.
the latter being unable to counter effectively
The second round was also marked by rush
ing by Gallagher.
from the third to the sixth rounds the
tactics were much the same. Gallagners
long left usually reached its mark as he
maintained a position near the middle of
the ring, while Mitchell played around him,
taking every opening that presented, but
in ducking almost invariably catching
a terrific left full in the face.
AT the close of the fourth round Gallaghers
left eye was badly swollen from a right
handler. Mitchell, playing for the ribs,
scored twice effectively, but Gallagher's
vicious drives for the chin kept him from too
frequent repetition.
The sixth was marked by hurricane fight
ing. Gallagher scored straight lefts on Nit
chells chin. but lacked a shade of knockout
effect. Mitchell also scored Two hard ones
on Reddy's jaw, and the close of the seventh
found Gallagher lacking steam.
From the eighth TO the end of the twelfth
round hOnors were about even, though Mitch
ell was apparently the more confident of the
two. Both men were now exchanging blows
for the muzzle, and Gallagher's injured optic
was bleeding freely at the end of the twelfth
from frequent left-hapd visitations.
In the thirteenth Gallagher came up a
tritie daZed, but landed two straight lefts
under Mitchelrs chin. Mitchell suddenly
came back at him with a right on the neck
and left on the chin. Gallagher reeled and
fell on his side, made a slight effort to RISE
but fell back and was counted out.

A young man about twenty-five wears

him with smile of pity on his face and
Queried:

''Oh-um-I see," muttered the fat
man. who got over feeling tickled all at
once, and in his vexation he crossed the
room and kicked dog which a farmer
had tied to one of the seats with piece
of clothes line.
