WOLCOTT AND WEST.
Two Old Timers in the Ring Do Battle
Tonight.

New York, August 27.-Tommy West
and Joe Walcott are both in excellent
condition and ready for their fight at
Madison Gardens tonight. These men
have met four times in the past. Each
has learned by nard experience the fight
ing qualities of the other. Walcott' S
desperate rusnes and random blows are
familiar to his opponent. He has stud
led these dangerous hooks of the bar
BADGES Demon" until he believes it i'm
possible for one of them to land hard
enough to do him harm but he has pro-
vided for chance landing of one of them
a deal of punishment.
Walcott thinks of the fight much the
same way. Four contests have taught
where the danger lies. and which style
of lighting he has the best chance to win.
For years these fighters have been meet
ing men out of their class. They have
knocked out middle weights, welter
weights and heavy weights, but in their
respective careers neither has ever met a
tougher customer than the other.
West has prepared himself for this bat
tie in his Brooklyn gynasium and in
his training quarters at Bath Beach.
Matty Matthews and Harry Fisher nave
spared roughed and wrestled with him
every day for three weeks and he will en-
ter the ring as we'll as he ever was in

dition and he has announced he Will WIN

Good Trade with Quito, Ecuador-An
Excessive Price.

San Francisco. August 27-Gen. Archi-
bald Sampson, United States minister
to Ecuador, has arrived here on visit
to his home in Phoenix, after three years
residence at Quito. He says that he has
just concludede a reciprocity commercial
treaty with the Ecuadoran government,
which he declares will be of decided
advantage to both countries. The ex-
port of flour will be especially fostered
under the treaty Wine is in excellent
demand and flour is S25 per 100 pounds
This excessive price is due to the high
duty and difficult trail 316 miles up into
the Andes to an altitude of 10000 feet
There is great promise for the develop
ment of a large export trade from this
port to that country.

ARMY KNA!PSACKS,

London Express: When the Germans
heard of the recent enormous casualty
list ON the fatal Aldershot field day,
about which official inquiry has been
head wagging and many unkind things
We're said regarding the stamina. and
marching capacity of Thomas Atkins.
AS a matter of fact, any body of troops
under identical conditions would have
had an equal casualty list; but the Ger
mans do not realize these conditions, be-
cause in their maneuveis they-and, in
deed all the crack continental armies,
without doubt-"do these things better"
But the Germans can march, and SO can
the Frenchmen and Russians, and more
over. the two former in marching or
der" carry a bigger load on their backs
than the British soldier Marching with
them is an important accomplishment,
and not one to be taken for granted.
The German recruit after he has had
his parade drill ground thoroughly into
him, is taken out to stretch his legs.
First, he marches in uuniform only. then
sa is given rifle to carry, next his
knapsack, and so until his marching
order is at full weight.
During all this the distances are being
gradually heightened, and finally the
pace is increased. When trained, he is
going his 20 miles regularly twice a
week, and he may be called upon to do
a 30-mile march occasionally, and fit as
he is he accomplished it ION his head -
That Tommy Atkins can march, too,
nobody will deny, but when comparing
his comparatively spasmodic pedestrian
efforts with those of the foreigner, gen.
eral conditions must be taken into ac-
count, and here he does not, as a rule,
compare too favonalbly, except after a
fortnight or less in the field.
Then, again, though some OF our, au-
thorities differ on the point, he must
have a breakfast to march upon, and a
small amount Of food every five hours or
SO, and an occasional mouth OF water to
wash the dust out of his throat.
They get all these things on the conti-
mental maneuvers, as matter of course.
In ours it is now always so; In fact, an
officer writing from the front has said
| that SO far as hardships and lack of food
are cncerned. the Transvaal Is para
| disc compred to Salisbury plain as II
| formerly was.
The continental soldier carries heay-
| Ter kit ON his back than the British SOL
dier because he relies less upon his trans
! port, and no matter where the baggage
| train is he can always pitch his tent a,
night and roll himself up in his blanket
When in heavy marching order Tommy
Atkins carries a coat and cape. mess
tin comprising plate, frying pan and
kettie), a valise holding spare uniform
shirt, socks. boots, brushes, etc.. a can
canvas haversack for small articles and
a water bottle. This weighs complete
with rifle, pouches. bayonet and 1O(
