Joe Cans. the lightweight champioa
boxer. is to be matched TO fight Young
Corbett the nominal featherweiEht,
if the efforts Of Manager Al HEREFORD can
bring about that result. Recently Her
ford issued q challenge for Cans to
meet Corbett Nothing came of this.
and now Horford viii take up the mat
ter personally with Corbett and prob
ahly bring about the bout.
The bout that is 10 take place March
II between Jimmy Britt and Young Cor
bett has brought about the especial de
sire with Herford for the battle between
Huu2g Corbett and Cans. The feather
weight limit is conceded 10 be I'D pounds.
and yet Corbett proposes to weigh 100
Pouncs at 8 O'Clock of the evening of his
battle with Britt
Weigh in at Iss.
This would make him scale lSS pounds
riugside which is the lightweight limit.
SO il is manifest that Young Corbett is
a true lightweight. and not a feather
weight at all. Cans can make 1S3 pounds
ringside. although he would have TO be
trained down fine To, do IL. while Corbett
at that weight would &c az the pinnacle
Of his rugged strength
However. HEREFORD proposes to make
the battle tat 1913 ringside. The report
from San Francisco that Corbett is

between him and Cans can be brought
about.

suits is said 20 be that the 50. 900 that he
won in his night with Hanlon has gone

BASEBALL MAGNATES
MAY POOL RECEIPTS
Scheme Planned to Equally Divide Money Taken in at
Holiday Games-Not "Syndicated" Ball

Club owners Of the National League
are seriously considering the PROPOSE
ton to pool" their receipts from hol-
day games, and among American
League men who havl discussed it the
idea meets with favor.
For the sake of the uninitiated il may
be explained that tins involves an equal
division OF the gate receipts on holidays
between the eight clubs of n league. the
idea being to divide only the gate"
and not the extra money for grtndstand
seats. which would be retained by the
home clubs as heretofore The pur-
pose is TO prevent the hardships which
often fall on one or two cluUs which
are prevented by weather conditions
from playing on a holiday date or from
drawing the usual holiday crowd. and
also TO prevent the existing strife among
the magnates TO secure holiday dates at
home

QUIET YET UNBROKEN
NO DISTURBANCES AMONG THE
 STRIKING MINERS.
Coal Companies Have Not Attempted to Begin Work, Hut Are Holding Conferences Looking to
 That End.

Birmingham, Aug. 1.-(Special)-- While no definite steps were taken by the coal operators to resume work at the mines where unioE miners are out on strike, there was consultations for some tune this morning between officers of the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Rall- road Company. the Sloss Sheffield Steel and Iron Company, and the Republic Iron Company. and il is believed that arrangements are being planned te start work.
 One of the officials. when asked when the start would be made, said that # would do no good to make any state- ments and that 1t was purely idle curi osity that prompted the inquiry. How ever, negroes and other labor is being collected to be used in the mines if the old miners do not return to work in the next few days.
 There was no move made today in the Blue Creek regions in the south ern portion of the county Tho miners did not leave the houses of the com panies, though notified two weeks ago to vacate. if they did not return to work today. The miners have with drawn all their tools from the mines fin the Blue Creek region. The sheriff of the county has sent out no more men. but has n number in readiness.
 President Ed Flynn of the miners Orga nization. when seen today said there were no indications of assertions from the ranks.
 Another conference of the operators was said to be on this afternoon. hut no particulars were given out nor can any statement be obtained from them. There has been further curtailment In the production of pig iron. the Re- public Iron and Steel Companv blowing out a furnace at Thomas. leaving but one running there.

 First. to have the Lusk bill killed.
 Second. not to become involved in politics.
 A short collquy between P. c. Bow man and Dr. J. s GilIepsy. the clerk and register of the city court, was the most exciting feature Of the meeting.
 MT Bowman was speaking to a res- oiution which had been introduced to the effect that it WIZ the consensus of opinion of the bar of Jefferson county that it would be an unwise precedent for the Democrati" county executive committee to nominate for judges and clerks of the courts. when he made some reference to the office of clerk and register of the city court

PROPOSITION TO DIVERT IMMIGRA.
 TON TO THIS SECTION.
nies Take Up the Matter of Bring ing Italians to Southern
 Ports

Washington, August 1.-Frank P. Sargent. Commissioner General of Inn migration, had a conference today with the representative of big transporta- tion company regarding the coming to this country of immigrants who should take up agricultural lands in the South. particularly in Texas.
 scarcity of labor in the South. par ticularly in the cotton raising States, has induced some of the trans Atlantic transportation lines to investigate the matter of diverting a part of the immi- grafton. to this country to the cotton growing States. Mir. Sargent said that the immigration bureau had nothing to do with the part of the country into which immigrants should go, but said he had heard of the proposition to es- tablish a steamship line between Italy and New Orleans, the idea being to supply Italian immigrants for the az ricultural regions of the South.
 The conference he had today related tu the establishment in Texas of colo nies of Italian farmers.
