BOXERS TRAIN
FOR TRY OUT
SEVERAL WORK AT MAUD JUNO
TloN PAVILION
Montana Kid Goes Four Fast Rounds
With Kid Dalton, Who Is to
Meet Caesar
AtteII

Several of the boxers who are pre-
pairing themselves for the next try-out
card which will be staged September
IA, have been doing their training al
the Maud Junction pavilion of the Pa
cific Athletic club and every afternoon
numbers of the fans go down to see
them go through their stunts.
Montana Kid, who is scheduled to
box Jimmy Burns ten rounds donned
the gloves with Kid Dalton and the two
went four rounds. Montana tore into
the Italian, but the game little young
ster would not retreat an inch and ex-
changed blow after blow to the face
and body.
Dalton will go ten rounds with Caesar
Attell and the scrap promises to be a
good one. Dalton holds decision
over Attell, but as the two have been
clamoring for another match, Manager
McCarey signed the boys for the semi
windup in the coming tryout.
Montana and Jimmy Burns mus
make 1873 pounds at O'Clock the after
noon of the battle, and Montana states
that he will reach the weight easily.
After his workout yesterday he tipped
the scale at 1S4h pounds, and as the
go is still a week off the weight ques-
ton will not worry him in the least.
Burns is at the Arcadia camp of his
cousin, Tommy, who is preparing for
his fight with Jim Flynn. Burns is a
new conner from the east and this will
be his first appearance between local
ropes. He has the reputation of being
hard hitter, but many of the fans
doubt whether he will be able to stand
the whirlwind style of Montana.
Darkness was much in evidence when
Manuel Torres and his bunch of fol-
lowers gathered at the ring side to do
their boxing Torres will meet Eddie
Menney and the bout is scheduled to
go six rounds.

WILL FINISH IT'S WORK.
Congress VII Not AdjOurn Pre-
mdtureIy, House Leaders Decide.
IBy The Associated Press.


Washington. June 26.-Congress will stay in
session until its work is finished. This is the
dictum OF Speaker Cannon and his lieutenants,
and II is being emphasized at this time 10
counteract any impression that the Pure Food
BILL at least, might go over until the next ses-
sion. The Speaker regards the work of the
House in satisfactory shape for adjournment,
and IS confident that the session will end this
week, though he has not agreed to sign reso-
luton fixing the date of adjournment, for the
reason that unforeseen difficulties might arise
over the bills in conference, and measures still
pending would be subjected to the danger Of
being talked TO death In the closing hours.
There is still trouble on the meat inspection
amendment and the Railroad Rate bill The
immigration bill is also in conference, as are
several of the appropriation bills. All of these
things must be worked out without any date of
adjournment being set. according to the decision
Of the House leaders. When the work is done
an adjournment resolution will be forthcoming
in short order.
Members said tonight there was no need Of
proIonging the session beyond Friday If the
conferrees made up their minds that the work
must be done, that agreements which would
meet all demands could be arranged on all mat
tiers before that time, and that if the idea of
prolonging the session for the purpose of killing
certain bills should be abandoned this week
would the end.
