Tommy White. who knows some
thing Of the ferocity of the attack Dix
on can make, was telling some friends
few days ago some "reminiscences of
the ring. During the conversation ref
erence was made to Dixon and White
was asked why it was Dixon had gone
back, if he has, at such an early age,
for Little Chocolate is now only %.
You will have to show me- about
Dixon going back" White said, with
a meaning smile. 81 don't think he
has. He is just as good to-day as he
was when he first won the champion
ship. l will tell you why he does not
appear to be. The young, or, more
strictly Speaking, new, fighters who
are coming to the front are of better
grade than they were five years ago.
That is why Dixon is not having such
an easy time Of it with his battles
1t may be that he has been drinking
heavily lately, but I know that the last
time he entered the ring he looked
the picture OF health and fought with
much of his oldtime dash and spirit
He certainly can punch as hard as
ever" Ard then White added i'm
pressively, And that is good and hard,
let me tell you.
'Dlxon's best move in the ring is a
peculiar half uppercut for the short
ribs and ightning-like cross for the
head with the right. He is the best l
ever saw at using this punch, and
many and many time he has brought
down his man with it. The blows
come SO fast and hard that it is hard
to figure them out, and usually Dixon
has his man whipped before the other
fellow can tell what has happened.
When l was first matched with
Dixon l met George Siddons, the old
Western feather-weight, on the street
one day and he told me he had heard
l was going to meet Dixon. WELL
he said, come in here and l will show
you in two minutes how you can knock
his head Off I am always ready to
listen to tips, and Siddons put me onto
this move of DiXon's. l tried it in
my training quarters and had all sorts
of boxers try to get the same blows
in on me. [ became so skillful in
blocking the leads that when I met
Dixon it was no trick at all for me to
stop the move, and, more than that, to
put in a stiff counter. l did not knock
his head off. as Siddons thought I
would, but guess 1 gave him a pretty
stiff punching.
q know this man Gardner, and Dix
on will have to be in the shape of his
life to get the money from him. Great
fighter? Well, I guess he is. He will
be as strong as bull at 116 pounds
and will set the liveliest kind of a
pace for George. I wouldn't be sur
prised bit to see him win handily."-

He Thinks q sound Currency Would

Country.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 16.-At the meet
ing of the Indiana Bankers association this
afternoon the following resolution was
unanimously adopted
Resolved, That this association has
watched with interest the efforts growing
out of the Indianapolis monetary convention
to obtain conservative and comprehensive
monetary legislation that will place our cur
rency system upon sound and enduring
basis. We respectfully urge upon congress
the necessity Of taking up this matter at
the earliest possible moment and enacting
such a measure as will unity and fortify our
currency and make the credit Of the United
States the best in the world for all time.
The following officers were elected: Presi-
dent c. T. Lindsey, South Bend; vice presi.
dent ID. A. Coulter. franklin secretary, s..
A. Morrison. Indianapolis; treasurer, e. l..
Mckee, Indianapolis. Executive council:
Hugo C. Rothert, Huntingburg; ]. L. Bay
ard, Vincennes; Hardin Roads. Muncie;
Oliver G. Soice, Plymouth; Mord Carter.
Danvile. Delegates to national convention:
c. T. Lindsey, South Bend; Mortimer Lever
ing, Lafayette; S. A. Morrison, indianapolis,
and A. G. Lupton, Hartford City.
This forenoon the association was ad-
dressed by the bankers, James H. Eckels.
ex- comptroller of the currency; John Farso on
and Orin Taft. jr. Mr.. Eckels. in his speech.
declared against expansion. He said:
1T may be possible, though consider 1t
extremely doubtful and highly improbable,
that this nation may be benefited and evils
at home remedied. by assuming grave duties
and grave dangers abroad and letting alone
the things at home, which most affect the
people. Let the currency Of this country
be placed on footing that 40 cne will
doubt the integrity of the country and we
shall have contributed something to the
forces Of civilization which cannot help but
work out results as beneficial as the occu-
patton of new territories and undertaking
new responsibilities"
The convention wound up tonight with Z
reception and banquet at the Grand hotel.

Telegram THE interview
which | had with NJ. Picard regarding
Americas space at the Paris exhibition was
absolutely authentic and was accorded per-
sonally by him Friday morning, November
4. at his office in the French exposition
headquarters. Quai dOrsay, and after he
had himself seen the cable asking for It,
The statements are all exact
This is so true that Monday, November
IA, at 1 o'clock NJ. Picard officially sent me
at my home one Of his secretaries, NJ. Henri
Fagniez, 10 ask me II I could kindly give
him the paper in which his interview had
appeared as he would like to see his inter-
view. l replied that the paper Of that date
had not yet arrived in Paris. but l gave
him paper Of October 90. containing one
OF the first assertions in regard to American
space. / also showed NJ. Fagniez a Paris
Herald containing Mr. Peck's interview upon
arriving in America in which appears the
phrase, more than other nations"
He said It was absolutely false and would
bring about complications with other foreign
nations After the secretary's visit went
to the foreign office Of the exposition and
was there informed that America certainly
had not the greatest amount Of space; that
Russia had been accorded the most and
that America would come third or fourth
in quantity as a result Of Picards inter-
view.
Peck cabled to his American commission
at Paris asking them to request Picard to
confirm his Peck's) statements which he
had made upon reaching America. This
Picard formally refused to do, saying that
such statements must remain exclusively
those OF Mr.. Peck's. l am mailing you

announce his official visit and important
documents, particularly upon the entrance
Of honor Peck is having constructed for
himself at the American headquarters and

penditures and those of other nations

but Peck's bluff and exaggerations are
