CANADIAN oUTPoINTED.

Fred Vaunch, the Canadian light weight champion. was outpointed in 8 rattling ten round bout at Wilkesbarre, Pa, on Monday night, by Jack Bennett of McIxeesport. The go went the dis tance and there was no doubt of Ben nett's superiority, although Vaunch proved himself to be a game fighter. Bennett took all the fight out of the Canadian in the first round by smash ing his man in the pit of the stomach. But Vaunch was gritty and kept at it, although in q pretty bad way.
 In the second, Vaunch almost put Bennett out with slashing left in the wind. Vaunch went to pieces in the third and Bennett cut his eye with q left swing. There was nothing of mo- ment until the sixth. yaunch smashed Bennett twice on the jaw. but the Ca- nadian had both Of his lips split with a straight iab. Still he kept at it. Tn the seventh. Vaunch almost put Bennett down with q swing. After that Bennett pummelled Vaunch for keeps, and the latter's display of grit was remarkable. Just when it seemed that he was going. he would recover and come back for further beating.

ROOT FOR GOVERNOR.

If Ex-secretary Consents to Run
 There VIII Re No Contest.
 NEW YORK, July 20.-Republicans have expressed much gratification over the prospect of securing Elihu Roots consent to stand as a candidate for governor.
 The conference that the ex-secretary of war had with President Roosevelt at Oyster Bay was responsible for the renewal of She talk about MT. Root as q gubernatorial possibility. Among Republicans there was a firm convic- ton that MT. Root is the one man who ought to be nominated, and determine ton was expressed not to quit booming him until 1t is certain that he cannot be induced to accept the nomination.
 Friends of the half dozen prominent Republicans who aspire to guberna- torial honors concede that if Mr. Root will consent to run there will be no contest in the convention. But if MT. Root will not permit his name to be presented the rivals will fight 1t out, and, according to Senator Platt, the best man will win. So it is highly sig nificant that all those who are second choice' in the consideration of the governorship are willing to combine on the former secretary of war.

HELD UP RACE NEWS
New Move by New York Po-
 lice Tn Poolroom War.
MONOPOLIzED ALL TRACK WIRES
For Hours During Racing at Brighton Beach Track Detectives Prevented Pool Sellers From Sending
 Any Messages.

NEW YORK, July 20.-Police In- spector Brooks and forty detectives went to the Brighton Beach race track and blocked all racing news sent over the Western Union wires by filing scores of messages after each race Between o'clock and o'clock the po- lice had filed over 400 telegrams and sent a similar number of telephone messages. The poolroom men were frantic over the situation, and what little news they received had to be sent from outside wires and was very late. The service for newspapers was also delayed.
 Many quotations from the Bible were used by the detectives, wiring from the track such as Il saw that the race is not to the swift. But time and chance happeneth to them all."-Ec- clesiastes, 9-11.
 ''I run with patience the race set before mel Corinthians, 9-24.
 "It was a chance that happened to us."-I Samuel, 5-6.
 Inspector Brooks declined to explain his conduct, but some of the detectives were more talkative. They said that complaint had been made that conner ciaI telegrams were being sidetracked by the Western Union in favor of rac- ing messages. No one but the pool rooms had chance at the race track telegraph office, it was said. A test was being made explained the detec- lives, to see how much there was in the complaint.
 The time of each telegram filed by the police was taken at the track, and the men at this end took the time that they received them. So far as could be seen no preference was shown by the operators. Each telegram was filed in it's turn, and all the poolrooms in town were held up in payment of bets by the delay.
 The poolroom men made a rush for the telephones when they saw how they were being held up, but in each booth they found detective. It was then that they went outside to send their messages.
 The Western Union people uptown were asked about the matter and this statement was made:
 sThere have been an extraordinary number of telegrams of commercial nature sent from the Brighton race track We do not understand 1t, but do not care why 1t is done. Each tele- gram is sent in the order that it is filed, and no exceptions are made to this rule."

BOB IS IN
 DEMAND
Dawson City Offers a Big Purse for Fitzsimmons to Fight Canadian Cham pion Whipped.

Bob Fitzsimmons's services are much in demand at present, and if the Cornishman cared to accept all the of fers sent him he would be kept con- stantly busy. The latest is proposi- ton from Dawson City, Yukon Terri tory. A club here has agreed to give Lanky Bob purse of $3,500 for q 20 round bout with Billy Woods, colored, of Los Angeles. Woods is clever middleweight and has a good reputa- tion in the west. The club wants Fitz to fight Woods some time next month. 1t Is not likely that the ex- champion will accept, as the amount is too small for such q long trip. He may consider it if it is increased and he receives good expenses. Woods is now at Dawson. His last battle was with Joe Miller. whom he defeated.

WRESTLING.
AN UNKNOWN
 AFTER HENRY CONRAD

The outcome of the Lawson and Conrad match in Oakville the other night was not unexpected by great many Of the sports who had followed the careers of both men, still there are very many who believe that Conrad was taken down to weight almost too quickly. It was said that he was at weight two weeks before the match and kept at that weight. If this was so it was a mistake, for no matter how small the amount of extra weight taken off q man. when that amount is kept off continuously for weeks it is bound to diminish the strength and staying qualities of the man. Conrad is good boy and fairly clever and with good coaching can be made q crackerjack at his weight, and if he had been gradually trained down to the weight, 115 pounds, he might not have succumbed so easily to Lawson's cleyerness.
 There is another Naugatuck wrest- Ter after Conrad now and will take him on at his own weight, 120 pounds. This wrestler's name will not be di- vulged unless it is really necessary, so says Jesse Foley, who has the wrestler in charge. He is not ringer, but has resided either in Waterbury or Naugatuck for number of years, per- haps all his life. He has appeared but once in public. but is willing to make match at 119 On 120 pounds. He will swrestle Conrad on the same conditions as he wrestled Lawson with the exception of the weight. Should such a match be made there are clubs in Waterbury that will make a bid for it, in fact some of the clubs ill this city were sorry they did not bid on the Lawson and Conrad match, but Mana ger Smith of the Oakville Social club stole a march and secured it. Wrest- ling between Naugatuck and Oakville with Waterbury as storm center ought to boom the next year.

He got the first fall all right after twenty minutes hard, clever, wrestling. but on the second trial, after battling in vain all over the mat, Kelly could not overcome the herculean de- fense of Young Sandow, and Referee a. l..

 NEW YORK, July 20-The hot wave which struck the city, bringing death and destruction, has increased to the highest temperature of the year and added more victims to the list. Five deaths from heat occurred in Brook lyn between noon and noon. Four of the dead were infants, and the other was an aged man. Tn Manhattan there were ten prostrations, but all the victims will probably recover The heat was greatest at o'clock in the day, when the thermometers on the streets reached the 100 degree mark. The humidity was 43. Since early in the day the parks have been filled with women and children seeking es- cape from the oven-like tenements, and every public bath in the city has been crowded, with hundreds outside wait ing tfleir turn.

StriIxiuE Meat Packers Send a Note
 to Employers.
 CHICAGO, July 20.-Leaders from all unions that probably would be af- fected by general strike at the stock yards have held a meeting and have drawn up note to the packers asking for another conference. The note was sent to the packers.
 The result was apparently a victory for the conservative element among them. The note dispatched to the packers, was said by Secretary Mock les of the Chicago Federation of La bor, to contain no reference to a sym pathetic strike, nor was it an ultima tun. It was a simple request" said Mir. Nockles, lin polite and peaceful language for a conference with the packers this afternoon
 There were present at the labor of ficials' meeting besides President Don- nelly and Secretary Homer ID. Call, Joh& Floersch, vice president of the Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen; Barney Cohen, president of the State Federation of Labor; George Golden, business agent of athe Stockyards Teamsters' union; Business Agent Jo- seph W Morton and Treasurer C. L.. Shamp of the Iiremen's union; John J. Fitzpatrick, organizer for the Amer ican Federation of Labor; Edward Nockels, secretary of the Chicago Fed eration of Labor, and James Kirby, president of the Carpenters District council
 The meeting was the largest one of gan Most of the officials present said that their men were ready to strike if the appeal does not bring satisfac- tory answer.
 The packers have expressed them selves as confident that there would be no important spread of the strike. They authorized this statement:
 "Joseph w Morton, business agent of the International Brotherhood of Stationary Firemen, International Sec retary and Treasurer c. l., Shamp of Omaha and Charles H. Wall of Kan sas City, chairman of the executive council, have met a committee repre- senting the packers at the stockyards with view to ascertaining the actual status of affairs.
 'The packers committee went over the ground thoroughly with them, giv- ing them the exact data from the com mencement of the controversy until the end of the negotiations. It is un- derstood that Messrs. Morton, Shamp and Wall indicated that they had not up to this time fully understood the matter and upon the showing made by the packers committee admitted that the right was on the side of the pack ers As a result of the investigation made by Messrs. Morton, Shamp and Wall 1t is not thought that the sta tionary firenen will strike"
 We still hope the packers will make a little concession in return for all we have made,' said President Donnelly. "Men still at work are anxious to go on sympathetic strike, but I will not ask them to strike until all means for a satisfactory arbitration of the dis pute has been exhausted"

Queer Place of Worship.

One of the most remarkable places of worship in the world is the miners chapel in Myndd Menigdd colliery, Swansea, Wales, where for more than 50 years the workers have each morning assembled for worship. The sanctuary is situated close to the bottom of the shaft. The only light is that obtained from solitary Dayy safety lamp hung over the pulpit from the ceiling, and the oldest miner in the colliery is generally chosen to officiate.-Boston Transcript.
