Tobacco.

Tobacco.
HAVANA, June 25.-The sugar grinding
season is now nearing its end over the
whole island. The yield this year is gen.
orally regarded as satisfactory, especially
at Cienfuegos, where the crop is said to
have been the largest ever taken off in
that district. Most of the other sugar pro-
ducing localities also show an increase of
more or less Importance in the yield as
compared with that of last year.
The Havana Report, in an article on the
tobacco trade, says: Intelligence has been
received that all the Vultua, Abajo and

MONTREAL, June 25.-Five of the crew

and word was sent to the police station

officers were looking for the sailors the
latter returned to the steamer under the

obey orders and the captain telephoned
for the police, and ten men were sent

mons. If he takes good care of himself, he
ought to be able to hold the championship
for ten or n dozen years. / have heard it
said that he would be likely to increase in
weight SO much as to take him out of the
class, but do not think that that will hap
pen. He does not look like man who
would gain much weight. He has that sort
of nervous temperament which keeps man
down. In my opinion he will stay in his
present class as long as he remains in the
ring, and he is likely to resign the honors
before they are taken from him.
He was too big man for Dempsey. The
Brooklyn boy had not only height and
reach against him, but he had weight. 1t
is true that when they entered the ring
there was only difference of about three
pounds; but Fitzsimmons was 150- pound
man at 15O, and Dempsey was a 142-pound
man at 1E. Jack was no stronger for the
extra five pounds. while every ounce on the
Australian counted.
Going outside of this country, there does
not appear to be any middle weight in
Australia likely to improve enough III the
next few years to make winning fight
against the champion. Pritchard the
English champion of that class, is good
man from all accounts, but / do not think
that he is built to stand against Fitzsim-
mons. He hasn't the height or the reach.
No; the niddleweight honors to the best OF
my view, will remain where they are for
some years to come.
Who is the coming heavyweight? There's
an interesting question. At present we
have no champion. Sullivan has retired
from the ring. A champion must be always
ready to defend his bslt. He must come
into the ring within six months after re-

ceivine challenge properly given and sup
ported. If he does not do SO. the challenger
becomes champion by default. I do not
think that anybody is in the position to
claim this honor from Sullivan at present.
Joe McAuliffe challenged him to glove
contest, and Sullivan ignored the offer, but
that, in my opinion, did not give McAuliffe
any grounds for claim to championship
honors.
jackson challenged Sullivan Just after
the Mississippi affair. but the conditions of
the case were such as to prevent the cham
pionship from passing by default. John L.
couldn't accept. II he had he would have
found himself in no end Of trouble down
there in Mississippi. 1t was unreasonable
to expect him to agree to fight under the
circumstances.
Neither can Slavin claim on account of
his challenge to be champion OF this coun-
try. In reality, as l have said, the 6rst
honor is in dispute. Sullivan is the retired
chamE ion. Il cannot be said that the
honors have been taken from him: nor can
he be properly called the active defender of
the belt. This, of course. does not involve
any criticism of his present ability as
fighter.
But the coming fight between Corbett and
jackson will be for the championship Of
this country.
Who will win its There is no doubt that
somewhat similar. They are about equal in
height, both being very tall men-thsy
stand six feet, one and one-half inches, il /
remember rightly. jackson has the lar
ger frame and is the heavier. He would

styles of hitting. jackson reaches avav

have been asked to discuss certain
questions relating to pu2ilism and especial
ly the men now at the head Of their several
classes in that department Of athletics. In
sports. as in most other matters, people are
not satisfied with knowing what has al
ready happened; they want to know what
is going to happen. That is why some of
the questions laid before me deal with the
future. In answering, / have no gift of
prophecy to help me. but only long ex-
perience.
Is there a middleweight who can wrest
the honors from Fitzsimmons? That is the
first of the questions which have been put
to me. must answer that do not know
any such man. We have some clever mid
dleweiRhts, but Fitzsimmons is at least as
clever a. the best Of them, and he has tre-
mendous natural advantages. There are a
number Of fairly good heavyweights who
are not, good enough for him. Above the
waist Fitzsimmons is a heavy weight. His
body looks solid and strong. The slender
waist is not necessarily a sign of weakness.
1t is by NO means SO in this case. His sho I
ribs stand out we'll, and he has good mus
cular development III the lower part of his
back. His big chest and powerful, flexible
shoulders give him tine proper backing for
a haid blow. Where he saves weight is in
the legs; and the value of big leg has been
greatly overestimated. Men who are very
heavy below the waist are almost always
slow. slender leg made of bone and

the way with jackson; it will take a good
man to get in an effective body blow on
him. That isn't the way in which he will
be knocked out-if he meets with that cat
astrophe. The way to knock him out is to
his him in the he I'd.
As to Corbett, it takes An exceptionally
good man to hit him anywhere. He is as
quick as flash in getting out of the way as
we'll as putting in blow. He has that
certainty of judgment which tells him Just
how far away his opponent is. In striking
an effective blow it is the elasticity of the
muscle which counts most. It gives the
quickest blow, and speed tells. Shoot a
bullet out of gun and it kills man; throw
the same bullet, and it may bruise him a
little, perhaps, but no more. It is the same
way with blow. In this matter of speed.
l think Corbett has the advantage over
Jackson. ! believe that he will win the
fight, and the heavyweight championship.
The best man whom the winner of that
fight will have to face. is Slavin ueayinp
Sullivan out). now heavyweight champ ion
of England and Australia. He is man of
remarkable physique, and surprising
80 far as can learn. According to ali sc-
counts his style of fighting is very unusual.
That was what Joe McAuliffe thought about
1t. In conversation with him and with
Billy Madden ] learned some facts about
the fight in which McAuliffe was beaten.
Both Madden and McAuliffe said that Slayin
hit harder than any man they had ever seen.
/ was looking at a fine picture of Slavin the
other day and could ses where this power
comes from. The muscles of his arms are
smooth and round and apparently possessed
of that hexibility which is so important.
He has particularly heavy, strong forearm.
and that il good place to look for power.
With such an arm he should be able to drive
his powerful fist through wall. And his
style, as have said, is peculiar. He comes
out at a man in unusual ways, at unex-
pected moments and with surprising force.
