Doctors who have had similar cases
say the general breaking down OF the
Senator physically, with the congestion
of the left lung, is a bad omen, and they
say his chances for recovery are very
slight unless the lung clears Immediate

Mr.. Hoars lung is partly filled with
products that tho blood does not take

surely filling up the air spaces.

POLITICS is in THE WAY.
Probably Reason for Breaking OF the
Jimmy Britt Young Corbett Go.

Back of all the talk of Young Cor
bett and Jimmy Britt there seems to
have been political vein that may ac-
count for more of the trouble than
has generally been accredited it, That
Jimmy Britt is correct in the stand he
assumed has been generally acknowl--
edged but the Denverite's reasons for
signing with Dave Sullivan, when he
undoubtedly understood it would mean
war with the Britt faction, have not
been so thoroughly investigated.
One writer is bold enough to declare
that it is because Morris Levy, the
impressario of the Hayes. Valley Attn
feuc club, which had signed the two
little fellows to give the bout, is
close friend of Mayor Eugene +.
schmitz. So far, SO good Often It's
we'll to be close tillicum with the ex-
ecutive head Of a city. but in this IN
stance the rule seems to have worked
the other way
Schmitz has not a good stand Win

Tor this reason, it lis limited, close

friends Of the former musician don't
md their paths strewn with roses
when they go before the board OF SUI
pervisors asking favors of that au-
gust body. One Of the favors they
can hand out is the granting of per-
NIT month to some boxing club.
Now Morris Levy is not the only man
in the world who has a petition be-
fore the supervisors Of San Francisco
county asking for leave to give a box
ing match in March. It is declared
his progress has been materially him
dered in the way of getting that pre-
cious bit of paper, and it is also de-
clared that Young Corbett was as
sured that it would be impossible for
Levy to pull of the fight on the
scheduled time.
So, goes the story, with shrewdness
he does not possess when it comes
to saving his money, Rothwell COM
cluded to get he best he could, by
signing to meet Dave Sullivan, the
last day of the month before the Yose-
mite club.
1t is practically admitted that for
the time being the prospects of a
match between the two men is of.
This feeling is strengthened by the fact
that Manager John Hertz received a
telegram in Chicago recently from
Manager Levy, acking him at what
weight he would match Jack O'Keefe
to go against Britt. This undoubtedly
means that the Britt Corbett go will
not take place March Is as was
planned.
But it cannot keep them apart for
long. They are legitimate opponents
the most evenly matched, so far as can
be told. and there is every reason in
the world they should come together in
the ring. But it may not happen in a
hurry, for club managers in San Fran
cisco are keeping a close eye on one
another. Those who have lost are
Jealous of anyone who has chance
for the plum, and there will be a lot
of fighting on the side before the Call
ifornian and the Colorado man can
hope to meet.
