Charlie Mckeever In Hard Luck

AS the situation at EI Paso has quieted
down, confidence in Dan StUarts ability
10 pull off his grand pugilistic carnival
as per arrangement, has returned. For
time the sporting fraternity lost faith in
him, but his calm statement to the effect
that the action OF Congress in passing an
anti-prize fighting law had in no manner
whatever affected his plans, again gave
them confidence.
1t has been felt all along that the Texan
had something up his sleeve in connection
with the battle ground for the five big
fights, and the stand that he has taken
since the passage OF the Cafron bin and
the subsequent signing of the same by the
President has strengt hened this idea.
His offer TO wager SEQ COO at cdds of

as scheduled was first thought to be a
bluff. pure and simple, but when an Eastern
sport offered 10 take part of 1t he was

thousand simply for a bluff, his confidence
in his own ability to carry out the car
niya1 appears 10 be bona tide.
True, IL might be a coed plan for him TO
explain why he wanted FitZ and Maher

confident OF pulling off the entire list
