Fight fans are won dering what show Terry will make Everybody who saw him in the ring knows what he was, but many things haye happened since he iintrOduced the solar ulexus system to the vision ot Edward Hanlon in four rounds Tn Philadelphia about year ago. Terry has been i'll and he looks it. However the Terrible is one of your surprising boxers He kept everybody guessing before the Hanlon fight. and then re Iieyed the anxiety of his friends by yadinR into his man with four rounds of the most furious punishment that ever man gave to man. One thing IS certain. no matter what hls condition may be. Terry has friends by the hun dreds. and many'a good wish for his victory will follow him to PhiladeE phia. Tommy Murphy is clever lit tie fellow and is mighty anxious to win this fight. Poor old George Dixon was chiId.s play in his hands a week or two ago. and. of course. one can't tell the extent of his prowess from that en- counter. However. Murphy is quick and has shown fin previous fights that he has good staying powers. 90 1t is dollars to little red apples that there will be some boxing when be and Tarsv face each other.

THE SPORTING NEWS.

had game tied on him. Two balks have been called on him during the year. A comparison of records be- tween Mathewson and Waddell, the crack southpaw of the Athletics of the American league, shows that Waddell has surpassed Mathewson in only one thing, and that is in the strike-out record, the Philadelphia star having 280 to his credit, while the New Yorker has but 169. Waddell has won 25 games during the year and has lost ten, was taken out of three games and tied up once and had one balk called on him. He has participated in 4S games all year, having finished out four games for other members of Connie Mack's staff. Mathewson par ticipated in 38 games, having finished four games for other Giant pitchers. This comparison of the leading pitch. CTS of the Giants and the Athletics. the two prospective contestants for the honors of the worlds series, shows the advantage somewhat in favor of the National league team. A compari- son of the records of McGinnity and Plank, the next pitcher of importance of the two staffs, shows a slight ad- vantage in favor of Plank. as he has won 22 and lost Il during the year, while the "Iron Man" has won but 20
 and lost IA.
 Columbus captured the American as. sociation pennant for the season of 1905. The team has 100 games to its credit, with only 52 lost. The other clubs in the association finished in the order named: Milwaukee, Minneapo- lis, Louisville, St. Paul, Indianapolis. Toledo and Kansas City.
 Des Moines won the pennant of the Western league, which has also closed it's season. Denver is in second place, Omaha third, and Sioux City, Pueblo and St. Joseph in the order named.

A ring was formed and when the bout ended Steinfeldt looked like the product of a paper mill while Corcoran was un- scathed.
 Garry Hermann, the baseball mag nate, who Is a principal member of the Laughery club. arrived on the scene too late to stop the fight. George B. Cox and Mayor Fleischmann were present at the festivities. whose end ing all concerned tried to keep secret.

IS BRIDGEPORT AFRAID?


 Manager Lou Cronin of the All Wa terburys was in Bridgeport yesterday trying to arrange for the playing of series of games between the All Wa : terburys and the Acorns of Bridge port Manager Dan Walker of the Acorns was seen by Manager Cronan and the proposition was made that the first game be played In Waterbury. the second in Bridgeport and the third or deciding game, if 1t was necessary, would be played where the winner of the toss up of coin so decided. Manager Cronan wanted the first game in Waterbury as last season he gave Bridgeport her choice. Manager Walker objected to those arrange ments and also stated that as the games had to be played in an open field in this city there would not be much money in it. Manager Cronan offered to pay the Acorn's manager $10 more than he would receive in Bridgeport but this was not accept able to Manager Walker. The All Waterburys played three games in Bridgeport and won two out of the three. The people Of Bridgeport want to see Waterbury play down there for it is the best team that comes from any city in the state. However 1t is up to Manager Walker of the Acorns. If he wants that series of games he can have them but it is more than likely that he does not for he even said he would not agree to a toss up for the final game because he would refuse to play in Waterbury. This challenge is open to Naugatuck un- der the same conditions, with one ex- ception however, and that Is that Naugatucz can have the first game at home Bristol will be here Sunday, and Manager Myers has twenty-four players coming over with a band of rooters.

HANGED FOR MURDER OF
MOTHER AND DAUGHTER

THE DALLES, Ore.-Norman Will
liams, who murdered Alma Nesbit and
her mother on March 8, 1900, was
hanged on Friday at the Wasco county
Jail. He made no statement, his last
remark being, "My lips are sealed to
the world"
Mrs. L. j. Nesbit of Omaha and her
daughter, Alma, were murdered near
Hood River, Ore. The motive of the
crime was the desire of Williams to
secure a homestead adjoining his own
in the Hood river country, upon which
Alma Nesbit had located at his in
stigation.
Williams two hapless victims were
both from Omaha, while the murderer
himself was a Nebraskan with an afro
cious record in that state.

scendent of the house of Potemkine

THE CHINESE BOYCOTT
HAS BEEN INAUGURATED

WASHINGTON.-The state depart
ment has been informed by it's consuls
that the Chinese boycott against
American goods, which was instituted
Wednesday,, vas organized by the
trade guilds in five ports, Shanghai,
Canton, Tien Tsin, Hankow and New
Chwang. 1t is believed the boycott
will not be successful or do any par
ticular injury to American goods, ex-
cept in Canton and Shanghai, where
the guilds are stronger than else
where. There is no official action
which the United States government
can take as long as it remains a single
boycott or refusal to purchase Ameri-
a goods, but it is thought the boy
colt will be discouraged by the Chi
nese government as far as possible.

Russian Envoy Talks of Pending Ne
GotiationS.

ST. PETERSBURG-M. White, the
senior Russian peace plenipotentiary,
received the correspondent of the AS
ISOLATED Press at his villa on Yelagin
island. In according the honor of an
interview to the Associated Press, he
said he expressly desired it stated
that he had declined all previous re-
quests of journalists for interviews
and would decline all future requests.
He further said that he made an e.
ception in the case of the Associated
Press, as it was the representative OF
the press of the United States, and as
he was about to become the temper
airy guest of the United States, and
also as a mark of the particular SYM
pathy he felt toward that country.
M. Witte spoke in French. After
greetings, which were cordial, the con-
versation gravitated to the high mis-
sion with which the Russian states

the foreign press to interpret his ap-
pointment as an indication that Rus
STA had desired to make peace at any
price.

in his chair and speaking slowly and
distinctly as if weighing the value of
each word. "In the first place l have
been designated by the emperor as
his ambassador extraordinary for pour
parlers with the Japanese plenipoten-
tiaries to ascertain whether it is pos
sible to conclude a treaty of peace.
My personal views are of secondary
Importance, but my ideas are in entire
accord with those of my friend, Count
Lamsdorf.
"In serving my emperor I have re-
ceived precise instructions from his
majesty and shall follow them.
'The Ultimate decision remains in
the hands Of the emperor and it is for
him to decide the destinies of Russia.
The emperor is the friend of peace
and desires peace, but l very much
fear that the Japanese terms will be
such that we will be~unable to reach
an accord.
Secondly, the world should dis
abuse it's mind Of the idea that Rus
