PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. I4.-Gus
Rubin. Billy Msdden's protege from
Akron, Ohio. who so far has fallen
short OF exhibiting the top-noth fight
ing qualiti which his friends claim

in six-round bout for q decision. The
only interest which the bout has Great
ed arises from the fact that if the
Australian succeeds in knocking out
the Ohio man within the limited num-

heavy weight aspirations of Rubin.
The fight will be pulled off under the

A BROKEN CABLE
May Give a Clue to Where
abouts of the Portland.
Cable Steamer is Searching for Break
OFF Peaked Hill Bars.
And Will Carefully Drag Section Where
Steamer is Supposed TO Be.

Boston, Dec. 19.-The breaking of the
Angio-American cable during the fore
noon of Nov. 9th, the day of the
storm, which break has since been To-
Gated miles off Peaked Hill bar, Cape
Cod, is regarded as another clue as TO
the location of the wreck of the ill
fated steamer Portland.
The cable steamer Minia picked up
the oft-shore end of the break, this AT
ternoon, and after buoying it left the
work of getting the in-shore end of the
cable, and splicing the two, until to-
morrow. 1t will not therefore, be sur
prislnS If, when the steamer finishes
her work there may be some new de-
Velopments as to the whereabouts off
the cape OF the remains of the much
sought for steamer.
The point where the off-shore end of
the break in the cable is buoyed is
miles east northeast of Peaked Hill
bar, a point at which the majority of
the life savers and the old sea captains
on the cape seem TO agree that the
Portland foundered. The water here Is
between So and 40 fathoms in depth
and the ebb tide runs about one knot
faster than the flood tide comes in.
The break in the cable was undoubt-
ediy the work of some vessel. IL must
have been broken by the sharp blow OF
some heavy body, such as the pom
derous machinery Of the Portland. al
though it is hardly probable that the
machinery at that time was in motion
The above theory of the wreck, there
