LOWE WOULD AGAIN
TAKE ON SULLIVAN
But Not With Hitting in
Clinches Allowed.
KID YEARNS FOR DESHLER
Wants Chance to Massage His Ribs
by Infghting-Also After Briggs
or Hosey.

Tommy Lowe, the Washington light
weight boxer, has become 50 impressed
with his own qualities since he won
handily from Joe TIpman and Tony
Moran that he thinks he should have
another go with Kid Sullivan
He has a hacker who says he viii
bet $500 TO $500 that Tommy can out
point Sullivan in a fifteen round bout
If they fight clean breaks and no HIT
ting IN the ciinches. Unless this STYLE
Of fighting is stipulated Lowe will not
undertake 10 meet Sullivan. as he
knows that his fellow Washingtonian
can hammer him to pieces with those
terrific shOTt-aTm JOlts while they are
hanging to each other.
Has it Figured Out.
Lowe and his hacker figure that he
has improved very decidedly in his
knowledge and application of the sci
ence of boxing since he was beaten by
Sullivan in Baltimore in eight rounds
and that with the clean style he would
be able TO prevent Sullivan from bat
tering him down, and at the same time
land more blows than Kid.
This is quite a proposition. Harry
Scroggs figured on the same basis and
his total was wrong IN three rounds
Sullivan has also improved in his box
ing 10 a marked extent, and while his
defense is not the best ever, he is
much faster and more dangerous on
the Offense than he was formerly
Suilivan's ambition at present is to
meet Dave Deshler again, but it is a
hard matter to set the New Highlander
TO talk business His unexpected victory
over the Kid was undoubtedly due to
the fact that although straight rules
were specified in the articles, when the
men were in the ring the club insisted
that no hitting in the clinches should
90. Sullivan argued around the point
at length, as did Joe Cans, who was
with him, but they had forgotten to
carry the articles, and were practically
helpless. They accepted the situation,
and Sullivan accepted a beating.
Yearns for DeshIer.
Straight rules are the only ones under
which Sullivan would meet Deshler
again. and If they come together in that
manner he should win. Jimmy Briggs
got the decision over Deshler a few
nights ago. and the reports state that
the victory was entirely due to might
ing. by which he beat down DeshIer.
Sullivan would also take on Briggs If
the Boston man would come anywhere
near $50 pounds.
It has been suggested that good man
for Sullivan would be Willie Hosey. of
Albany, \. Y. Hosey has taken part in
a number Of vicious private fights in
New York, and has gained a big repu-
tation in them His latest feat was to
go twenty rounds TO a draw with Jimmy
Briggs in a private engagement near
Albany lest Wednesday night Al Her
ford says he would match Sullivan with
Hosey if the Albany man is not too ex-
travagant in his financial demands

CANADIAN BREEDS

RULE MAY BE CHANGED
Present Stipulations Causing Dissaris-
faction-American Kennel Club Now
Controls Canadian Organization.

NEW YORK, March 3.-The ruling Of
the American Kennel Club against per
hitting a dog bred in Canada compel
ing as an American bred dog has
caused considerable dissatisfaction
one Of the arguments advanced in
support Of the claim that Canada must
be treated as foreign, is the English
Kennel Club has recognized the Cana
dian Kennel Club as in control Of the
dominion. That is true, but some Of
the men who are laying so much stress
on this point know something else.
They are aware that a committee went
to England q few years ago 10 bring
about reciprocity between the kennel
clubs OF America and England. They
also know that the primal feature of
the agreement which the American
delegates were TO insist upon was that
the American Kennel Club was to be
recognized as in control Of the entire
continent They further know that
in the legal agreement, signed by the
three Representatives Of each club,
this stipulation is the first point in
the protocol That agreement was then
referred to each club for ratification.
a. K. c. Dropped Matter.
The American Kennel Club consid-
cred it in two executive sessions, and
never agreed to it because of some min
or technicalities which should have
been cleared up and settled. but never
were. The facts remain, however, that
the American Kennel did succeed in
getting the concession Of the right to
control over Canada on the claim that
the Dominion was part of the con-
tinent and the club was the CONT
mental Club, not being confined to
the United States
If that possession was right a few
years ago IT IS rather surprising TO find
the persons who really know the facts
from personal connection with the com
mittee and the action Of the club should
not be the strongest urgers of the claim
that America means the United States,
and that the English Kennel Club should
not have recognized the Canadian Ken

ROCKEFELLER TRUST.
Have Got a Monopoly on the Rubber
Business.

John d. Rockefeller, Jr., and his
brother in law, E. D. Aldrich, son of
Senator Aldrich have startled the
financial centers of the world with a
coup which rivals the feats of their
respective fathers in the handling of
money and poiI,ics and the extermina-
ton of competitors. The two young
men have followed the Standard Oil
example in that they have selected the
product of nature-rubber-ab
which to build powerful monopoly
by controlling not only the source of
supply, but the means by which it
can be refined into an article of mer-
chandise.
Already they have caused the loss
of many millions to the rubber trust,
their rivals.
The Continental Rubber Company
Of America is the concern of which
young Rockefeller and Aldrich are the
heads. 1t has come into the rubber
business with such a weight of money
that the price Of rubber has been
driven down so that the estimate Of
last years crop, SIG. $4,000, would
dwindle to $e2.O00,OOO If sold at the
last price quoted under Rockefeller.
