 25 Round Co.

San Francisco. July 2S.-The twenty five round bout at the Colma club to- night between Frankie Neil, the bantam weight champion and Harry Tenny, of San Francisco, ended in a victory for Neil, the referee Billy Roche deciding at the end of the battle that the cham pion had the better showing.
 Tenny proved himself to be a game and clever fighter and held his own with the champion up to the twelfth round After that period, however, Neil had a decided advantage in all most every round and several times had his man at his mercy, but was unable to land a blow that would have fin ished the fight. Neil did not appear to be in his old championship form but clearly was a better ring general

When the Japanese Think
 it Will Begin
WITH THE CONFERENCE
The Spokesman of the Jspaness En. vOys on the Subject Of China's Claim for Indemnity. His Country He Says Owes Nothing.

New York. July 2S.-Inquiry was made MT. Sato, the spokesman of the Japanese peace envoys, as to the at titude of the Japanese on the ques- tion of an armistice. He replied: "Ja- pan is perfectly willing to agree to an armistice after the credentials of both commissions have been examined and verified. I think an armistice will be agreed upon after the commission en- ters formally upon its work. It has been the custom in all peace negotia- tions to cease hostilities during the convention of peace pIenipotentiaries :" MT. Sato was asked as to the definite powers of the members of his commis- sion and he said: They have power to reject any proposal and commit the Japanese government to any document they may sign, subject of course to the sanction of the emperor"
 The report that China intended ask ing an indemnity, MT. Sato had read and regarding this he said: China would not ask any indemnity of Ja- pan. It was her inability or unwflI- ingness to keep Russia out of Man churia that forced Us into the war;"
 MT. SatO commented upon the re- ception to Secretary Taft in Tokio and said he had read the reports with deep interest. The fact that the his toric ChrysanthemUm gardens had been thrown open to the secretary. MT. Sato said, was indicative of the feel ing toward Americans in Japan These gardens are almost sacred in our country" said MT. Sato, "and this is the first time they have haau opar,- ed to foreign citizens. It is a marked and honor. They are open ed for our own people but twice a year."

Varying Reports hat the Optimistic
 Prevailed.

Chicago, July 2S.-The wheat mar ket was rather weak from the start,
 the initial quotations on September
 being a shade higher to 1Ac lower at S6% @S7c. One factor that contribut- ed to the bearish sentiment was an increase of local receipts. Liberal shipments from Argentine gave addi- uonal emphasis to the weakness tone. The weather was threatening in north west Minnesota, but clear generally through Dakota. Selling September eased off to SSL2c. The sentiment then became bulIish for time on the report by a Minneapolis crop expert regarding the damage to spring wheat by black rust This authority summed up the situation by stating that the already reduced one-haIf. both in equality and yielding. Reports from other sources, however, gave more op- timistic outlook for the new crop. The market soon experienced a sharp break and for the remainder of the session extreme weakness prevailed. The market closed at the lowest point of the day, with September off F @1% at S5%c.
 The corn market closed weak with prices at the lowest point. Septem- Der closed % down at 52Nc. Local receipts were 26O cars with 64 of con tract grade.

IMPORTANCE OF HISTORY.
Crcwth Of the United States Worthy
Of the Best Efforts Of His
torians.

With the coming Of true national
consciousness came the interest in the
past and in history 1t was apparent
writes Henry Cabot Lodge, in the Read
er Magazine. that the United States was
one Of the most considerable facts of the
age when its consolidation had once
been effected and all peril Of dissolution
had departed with the crushing out Of
the powers which aimed at separation
Anything which helped to explain this
great fact became, therefore, of intense
interest, As the years passed on the
fact grew larger. In due time a not very
serious war revealed the fact to the
world. and ii appeared that the fact was
that the United States had, and was des-
tined to have, a strong and increasing
influence upon all the other facts known
as the nations Of the earth. Thus did it
become more than ever obvious that the
explanation OF the United States to be
found in the history of the past four
centuries was worthy of the best efforts
of the historian. The pride in what the
country is spurs men on to pride in all
who shared in making the nation. FROM
the abortive attempts of the earliest ad-
venturers. from the feeble settlements
clinging to the Atlantic seaboard, on
through the confused and seemingly
petty history of the colonies and of the
scattered people and small states strug.
Cling out Of revolution and dissenslon
to a larger national life, to those who
saved the union from disintegration
and still on to those who have carried
her power forward TO the Pacific and
made great nation where there was
none before, all alike have come to have
deep meaning and importance. Hence
the rise Of American history, and, what
is more important, Of the general in
terest in that history, which may be
trusted to separate the wheat from the
chaif and give us not only knowledge.
but also something worthy to take a
place in literature by the manner In
which the knowledge is communicated
to men.
