KANSAS Cry, Mo-, Feb. 2.-Local
sporting men are endeavoring to push q
scheme which they assert will furnish q
permanent fighting ground where all
prize fighters can perform without fear
OF molestation. Just opposite Kansas

the projectors aver prize fights may be
pulled off without legal interference.
1t is claimed the state authorities have
no jurisdiction ON the island, and the
United States authorities would not
likely interfere. 1t is the purpose of the
projectors, who are actively pushing
the scheme. to bid heavily for the Cor
