CUBAN TREASURY RULING,
American Cotton Manufacturers
Protest Against 1t

Havana, Jan. 3l--rhe United states,
on behalf of the American Cotton Man
ufacturers association, has protested
against ruling of the Cuban treasury
department rendering ineffective Presi-
dent McKinley's order Of March IS, 1901,
giving admittanoe 10 cuba at prefer
entail rates to cotton fabrics Of cer-
tain weight and width manufactured by
American looms
British manufacturers are now given
the same rate. It II asserted. The
American compliments point out that
the Plat amendment and the genera [
treaty obligate Cuba to maintain and
operate all the rights acquired by vlr-
ture Of the acts Of the intervention gov =
eminent.
Importers of Porto Rican coffee roast.
ed IN the United States allcge undue re-
quirements Of proof Of the place of orr
gin of the coffee. The general COM
plant is that Of the Cuban customs re-
aurements are unfair 10 United states
interests, Notwithstanding the work.
ings Of the reciprocity treaty, while
proving highly favorable TO cuba, are
not particularly so to the United States,
compared with the interests OF Euro
peans. Treasury officials have denied
to the Associated Press that there is
any unfairness IN any Of the rulings OF
which Americans complain.

FIGHTERS LOVE PONIES.
They Go Daffy over the Racing Game
And Lose Money.

ITS queer thing how pugilsts become
dafty over race horses said a local
sport follower this morning. kid Broad,
me best boxer ever turned out in Cleye-
land, might be champion Of his class to-
day but for his weakness for betting on
the horses. That boy got so that no
never would train properly as long as he
was within reach OF a race track or pool
room. He had a few thousand dollars
saved, but lost II all on the horses
Then there's Kid Mccoy He threw
up his match with Twin Sullivan for no
other reason than because no Is running
a book with his brother-in-law at Los
Angeles and doesn't want to take the
time 10 train The KIDS health Is all
right, but he is infatuated with the rae
ing game.
There's Jack McAulfre, the retired
lightweight champion, who has always
been a crank on race horses, and is today
a bookmaker
IKE Weir, at the top Of his class about
the same time McAuliffe was In his
prime. would talk more horse any day
and has owned horses in this country
FRANKIE Neil, recently defeated for
the bantamweight title by Jem Bowker
In London, was at one time a jockey His
father Is a race horse owner IN California
and Frankie has an interest IN the stable
George Gardiner, the former light
heavyweight champion, was brought
up midst horsey atmosphere In Ireland

and then dropped all his money.
"Billy Thompson at one time manager
OF Charley Mitchell, has lost thousands in
his endeavors to pick winners. The old
middleweight, Dan Creedon, also likes to
be near the ponies and for years worked
as hookmaker's clerk,
"Other scrappers who have dabbed In
the racing game with varying success are
Young Corbett, Terry McGovern, Danny
Needham Denny Lynch and Jim Hall
Joe Vendig formerly a close follower OF
lighters, is now paying strict attention to
racing.
"Billy Meyers known years ago as the
Streator Cyclone, quit the ring without n
cent, He Is now superintendent of tho
Harlem race track, and has the proverbial
fortune put away FOR a rainy day.

FRANKIE NEIL TOO
MUCH FOR HYLAND
Come Little Amateur Stood Up

Knocked Out.
BUT He LACKED EXPERIENCE.
TX Champion Showed His Old Time
Form aud Was Cool aud Deliberate
During the Fight.

San Francisco, Jan. 3l.-It TOOK frankie
Neil, bantam eX-champion, fifteen rounds
TO knock out Dick Hyand, who made his
debut tonight from the amateur ranks,
II was fight between a seasoned ring
general and a youngster game as pos
sibc strong and willing, but lacking in
experience.
Except for one or two Of the earlier
rounds Neil held a good lead on points,
Throughout the fight Hyland, however,
would brighten up and land some telling
blows, often rushing Nell to the ropes,
But Nell's GOODNESS was never in jeop-
ardy, and his clever foot work carried
him out of danger. Beyond a bruised
eye, which each Of the lighters accumu-
lated early in the contest, no particular
damage was done up 10 the last round,
In this round Nell went at his man
deliberately but relentlessly A left
swing to the jaw sent Hyland TO the floor
for the count. When he arose he was
practically helpless and was sent to the
mat again. Game to the last he arose,
staggering blindly and faced his antag.
onist There were cries Of stop it,
from all over the building but Hyand' 8
seconds refused TO intervene, and Nell
sent him down and out.
After ten rounds Of terrific milling the
preliminary between Jack Cordell and Joe
Angelli was declared a draw.

Logan, Jan. SO.-A very ctycr fencing
contest was witnessed In the IS. Y. college
gymnasium Friday evening between PrUf,
A, b. Wright OF the college and Prof,
Lucien M Christol Of Paris, IL was evil
dent from the iirst that Mr. Wright was
the better man, though the contest was
pretty one, and both men made touches.
Cbrlstol had difficulty In keeping within
bounds, and, indeed, he was over the lines
and lost half a point seven times during
the match. The referee, Capt, Styer OF
the A. &. u permitted these, fouls TO
pass, however In giving his hnal decision,
and so the official score was announced as
10 to a instead Of 10 to ]g OF one point.
Mr.. Christo made an unfortunate guard,
and was scratched on the back OF the
hand, which brought the contest to a
close
Prof Chrlsto addressed the audience
briefly and said he was clearly not 80
skilful a swordsman as Mr.. Wright, who
he said was younger, quicker and better
fencer every way, He IL what | have
been" was his way OF explaining MS
defeat. Notwithstanding the bout was
short one, 1t was in every respect q
finished and pleasing exhibition, ana tho
200 people who witnessed II were fully
satisaed. Prof. Wright was seconded by
Mr.. Bishop, and Or. Smlse acted as sec
ond for Prof. Christol,
Prior to the principal event Of the even
ing John Christensen and DR.. Emise,
pupils of Prof. Chrstol, had a go with
the foils, which resulted In victory for
Christensen.
Prof. Wright has received a challenge

In the Utah Athletic club of Salt Lake,
for a fencing contest TO take place here
at an carly date, Mr.. Wright today ac-
cepted the challenge and date will BE-
agreed upon very soon, Both men have
defeated MIR. Christol, and will now con-

Mr., Wright holds, IT Is probable that

POLICY ON THE
SALT LAKE ROUTE
Following Election Of New Board
OF Directors Numerous Changes
Are Scheduled.
CONSOLIDATION OF OFFICES.
Auditing Department Of San Pedro TO
Be Merged With the Short
Line,

Now that the Salt Lake Route is an
accomplished fact to all intents and
purposes there is considerable specula-
tion as to how the road viii be operat-
ed. Ii is generally conceded that there
viii be no announcements forthcom-
ing for 60 days or more, but when they
are made It win be found that there
win be a representation OF the Harri-
man interests I'm the executive, traffic
and operating departments. The first
move will follow the election Of direc-
tors when some members Of the exist
ing board step down to make room for
the Hartman holdings. Senator Clark
II goes without saying, viii have a big
representation, also Messrs. Kearns and
Keith, who are credited with Jointly
owning half million dollars worth Of
stock In the new road will have a
voice I'm the change. The rest Of the
directors will be Hartman men.
1t is understood that the policy OF the
road will be In the direction Of up-to-
date economical management In this
connection there will be a merger OF
offices. In Los Angeles, where the hand
Of the southern Pacific is being already
felt at the helm, It is current gossip that
the auditing department Of the San
Pedro road will be merged with that Of
General Auditor McNitt OF the oregon
Short Line. While there will be a small
force Of clerks and perhaps an assist
ant auditor at Los Angeles headquar-
ters, the balance will come to salt Lake
and work hand in hand with the Harri-
man department.
Indicative Of the policy II is also stat
ed that the general manager OF the Salt
Lake Route will also hold the title Of
vice president
There are also numerous other stories
going the rounds Of Railroad Row as to
what will be done, but It is early yet
for mere speculation,
