HAUGHToN AT WEST BADEN.
Local Pugilistici Promoter Visits In
diana Spa to Locate Abe Attell.

Charley Haughton departed yesterday for
West Baden. Ind. his mission being the To-
, cation of Abe Attell.
That young man has shown little dispo-
sitlon to answer kilograms concerning his
fight with Regain, and It was thought un-
likely that dispatch would produce any
results, after Regan's good showing last
Monday.
The general impression among local
sports seems to be that Abe is inclined to
back away from fight with his former
stable mate. He has persistently refused to
set a date for his battle with Regan, and.
enjoying Himself in vi Ways y'S which, do 1 not in
dictate that he is any great danger.
When messages were sent In rapid sue
cession to him he dropped completely out Of
sight and his whereabouts was a consid-
cradle mystery for time. Haughton de-
cided that the only way to round him up
was to take trip to West Baden and see
how matters stood for himself.
In case Abe can be located an early day
may be set for his contest with the Brook
lyn bantam.
Brooklyn Tommy Sullivan is much re-
lieved over the improved condition his wife
has shown in the last week. Though Mrs.
Sullivan is still in the hospital she has
gained in strength. and 1t is likely that
she will be entirely recovered in the near
future.
Sullivan and Hart have several plans on
taking things rather easiy these hot days Sse
They had a fourishing gymnasium last
season, and it proved quite a profitable ven
ture Both laid BY enough to be entirely in
Sullivan Is ready to fight any one in his
class. however. and has standing offer
to meet ss anyb9%dy that will do the
enthusiastic over, their battle, scheduled
for Memphis. as the boys have been friends
throughput their lives, and do not feel at
/. No lack Of matches is likely for either
boy. as both Regain and Tommy have re-
eeived several offers of late One Of these,
not be noticed on account of recent devel-
opments In that city. Each has a standing
Sfts sr from +b Doc Hottum at Memphis to
good guarantee for such bout.
According to Nal Doyle, Tommy Sullivan
is thought to be about the best candidate
in his class by the Management of the Kan
sas City Club before which the bantam fight
was pulled of last Monday. Claude john
son. manager Of the club. made fiattering
marks it was decided that a fight will be
offered to Tommy in the near future
From the size Of the house attending the
City would be good Held for pugilism an Ths
sports there know. fight when they see
1t. apparently. as they turned out in great
err numbers than the same battle would
have drawn here. A man of Sulliyan's
standing in his class should prove a great
attraction there.
Secretary Genslinger Of the Missouri
Athletic Club stated yesterday that Tommy
Ryan. the middle-weight boxer. would be In
this city early next month. Ryan has re-
tired from the ring for good. his retirement
being compulsory this time. Examination
of his stomach has shown that It Ii IN no
shape to stand more fighting.
He will assume his duties as boxing in
structor at the institution as soon as the
gates are opened next month.

ton in favor of restricted Chinese labor
for unskilled plantation work.
This Exchange, through it's represen-
tatives. persistently urged on the U. S.
Commissioner General of Immigration
the desirability of restricted Chinese
labor for Hawaiian Plantations
This Exchange realizes that Hawaii
affords the Oriental an opportunity to
vastly improve his fatherland condi-
tion through plantation labor, domestic
service and corresponding employ
mentS.
This Exchange. in so far as it can in
fiuence public opinion, demands that
the Oriental shall thus be content and
cease to attempt to force himself in
to all avenues of business and en-
ployment on a scale of civilization ut
terly destructive to all the social aud
economic standards established COR
American civilization.
This Exchange re-affirms it's asser-
ton that the moment the Oriental de-
mands for himself and his family the
same standard of living as the white
man he ceases to be a menace or i'm
This Exchange believes every in
dividual who, with his family, is sus-
tanned in his high standard of living
by American civilization should be true
to that civilization and true to those
who enjoy its advantages with him.
The individual who unnecessarily
throws his patronage to lower stand
ard of living and civilization than ne
is willing to accept for himself and his
family is seeking an advantage over
his fellow citizens and EQUALS.
There is point where selfishness
ceases to be judfcious. 1t needs only
a minority to act on similarly selfish
lines to begin to break down American
civilization, and the moment maiori-
ty act on identically selfish lines the
whole American economic civilization
on these Islands will fall to Oriental
standards, so far as individuals are
concerned who depend on daily en-
ployment and American mercantile
patronage.
Persons of wealth and special ability
can escape, but their environments
cannot fail to be degraded.
This Exchange recognizes the fact
that labor, organized and unorgan-
lied, has done much to compel and has
not yet ceased to afford some excuse
for the employment of Oriental labor.
Any mechanic or laborer who cannot
be depended upon when needed, who
is hostile to his employer or who will
not give full days conscientious work
for full days pay is surely throwing
his example and influence in favor of
the Oriental
