cago Today. =. 4ra ~ =
Journal Special Service.

journal Special Service. 'r;@ :.F@@EN -
Chicago, Dec. - Big Nine'' ,ath,
letic managers and coaches began the
preliminary work for the annual con-
ference faculty convention that is set
for today in their gathering at the
Victoria hotel yesterday afternoon to
Sswap dates'' for track meets and
basketball and to make tentative plans
for football games in 1907. rs d
Where there is more eagerness than
has been shown in several seasons to
bring about long and interesting schel-
ules for the football warriors none of
the college athletic representatives
cared to close negotiations for any grid
iron engagements until the result of
the conference meet at the Auditorium
annex today is made public.
If the revision Of the conference re-
form restrictions were left to the
coaches and managers of the various in
stitutions, it is almost certain they
would recommend the abolition of the
retroactive provisions which fell hard
on the men who were playing when the
regulations were put in force.
Gossip Yesterday indicated that there
was considerable hope of the confer
ence seeing the injustice of retroac-
tive rule and that it would modify it
so that several football men at the
Big Nine schools would get another
year of gridiron sport. The training
table has made friends since last year s
killing blow, but it is impossible to tell
from preliminary talk with the facul-
ty representatives whether the confer
ence Will re-establish this feature.

"ENGLISH GEORGE"
DEAD IN A SWAMP
SCION OF FINE OLD FAMILY A
VICTIM OF DRINK.
Stupefied by Liquor, He Lost His Way,
Wandered Into a Morass Near st.
Peter, and Perished Of the Cold
His Life Wrecked by Associations
Formed in Student Days.
Special to The Journal.

st. Peter, Mimi, Dec. 1.-George r. Gorle,
commonly known as English George" scion of
all old English family and character in St.
Peter for twenty years, found dead in
swamp a mile east Of the city yesterday He
had wandered off the highway, lost his way In
the darkness and frozen to death. -,
Gorle was we'll connected in England. His
father Rev. John Gorle, rector Of an Epis
copal church at Worcester, and a brother Rev.
tion at Whatcote. One of his sisters married
another Episcopaian clergyman, the late Dr.
John Barker. English George himself was
educated for the ministry, and under any and
all circumstances he invariably exhibited the
influences of his early training 1t was in his
student days at one Of the larger English univer-
stiles that he formed the associations that
wrecked his life and after an unusually lurid
escapade he gave up the career his family had
planned for him and came to this country. .~-
A few years after his arrival Gorle was Joined
by Fred Mansfield, of his boon companions
in the old days in England. Mansfield was a
remittance man. and the pair lived in luxury
and idleness on the checks from ''home'' Oddly
| enough Mansfield was frozen to death under
very similar circumstances five years ago, and
since that time Gorle had worked as a common
laborer and his existence had been q miserable
one. . t. - - -
l. On the day before his death Gorle~ came RI
st. Peter for of his frequent sprees. Earlv
In the AFTERNOON he was ordered out of town nv
Ch1ef Peterson, but returned later and was
seen on the streets about 10 O'Clock, IT is SIM
posed That he started to walk to the farm where
he was employed, lost his way and perished. -
his BODY was found by Oscar Rapp, farmer.
and after the case had been investigated nv Cor
oner Baxter Of LIE Sueur county, the Kasota
township authorities were ordered to take charge
of the remains - -

MANY ACCIDENTS
TO DEER HUNTERS
Seventy-f0ur Deaths and Serenity
Injuries Reported Up to
Date. -.
Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service. f t5tfzS p
Chicago, Dec. t. Seventy -four
deaths and seventy persons. injured,
some of them SO seriously that death
may result, is the record of fatalities
for the hunting season thruout the
country.
Northern Michigan and Wisconsin,
where the open season for deer closed
yesterday, went ahead Of the record
for deaths, twenty eight being reported
this season, against twenty six for the
previous one; but in the number of
persons injured this years. record falls
far below that Of the previous one,
having only twentysix accidents which
did not result in death. @%T--
The larger part of the deaths were
the result of accidental discharges of
,shotguns, many Of them occurring while
the owners. were cleaning the weapons.
In many Of these cases the victims
were children. - - 80. :, :.
Many Of the deaths were those of
boys who were hunting, and the mis-
taken for deer account for many others.
Michigan leads in the number Of dead
and injured, with Wisconsin close
second, the former having fifteen
deaths and the latter thirteen.

BURNS SHOWING
SURPRISED MANY
Few Fight Followers Gave the
Canadian Pugilist His Due
$50. Credit. -~..:. y: -.
Journal Special Service.

Milwaukee, Dec. 1.-The twenty
round battle between Tommy Burns
and Philadelphia Jack O'Brien for the
heavyweight championship of the world
at Los Angeles, CAL, was a big surprise
in some respects to many followers Of
the boxing game.
It was generally conceded that
O'Brien outclassed Burns in cleverness
and it was expected that he would have
little. trouble outpointing the young
Canadian, but the latter proved him
self stronger than even Jack had
looked for, and as a result made
splendid showing. 1t also proved that
:O'Brien; is not quite heavy enough to
remain in the heavyweight division, al
nor his ability to light and nd take AXE pun pun
ishment. He entered the ring near the
middleweight limit-where he really be-
longs-while Burns was strong as bull
at about IT'S to 178 pounds. It was quite
handicap at that and showed the true
value Of 0 'Brien as high-class fighter.
The trouble is that whole lot of
fight critics have never given the Phil
adelphian the credit he deserves. He
has met men of all classes and has
given away weight in most of his
matches, yet he has never been heard
w YIN - CHO icc1ot. liz was d.
ways willing to meet anyone near his
weight and never haggled over few
pounds. Jack won the light heavy
weight title when he defeated , Bob
Fitzsimmons and practically the mid.
|. dleweight title, as Bob held both, but
! they, did not weigh in for the contest
and: therefore it could not be termed
a championship middleweight contest.
However, the. contest with Burns
demonstrated that Tommy is better
man thar he has been credited with
being, that he is among the heavy
weights, and there is no reason why
he should not have good claim to the
title of champion, now that Jeffries
has really retired and O'Brien an
nounces that he will leave the heavy
weight class alone. Of course, o 'Brien
has just as much right to the title
as Burns, providing he wanted to claim
it and remain as a heavyweight, but
he says he will be better off TO- re main
as a middleweight and light heavy
weight and meet men of his own
weight or near it. 49,. 80.
The next battle of Importance in the
heavyweight - line will be between
Burns and Al Kaufman, and as both
are favorites on the coast, it should
prove a big card. AS to O 'Brien-well,
there should be no disputing the fact
that he is the best of the middle
weights in the country today.

MIKE KELLEY WILL
KNOW IOuORROW
Much Abused Miller Manager
- Will Get the Vote of
I. Havenor.. -. -. ,,.'.

! Milwaukee,, Wis, Dec. l.-Once more
the famous Kelley, case will come up
for discussion before the magnates of
the American association when they
gather at Chicago tomorrow to hold
their annual meeting, elect officers for
the ensuing year and pass upon other
Important business. Some reports
from various sections Of the circuit say
that the fractional fight, which has been
waged so bitterly, the past two years,
IS not ended despite the fact that
Messrs. Lennon, Tebeau and Havenor
have absolute control of the organiza-
ton. If these reports are correct then
the magnates should be locked in some
large room and kept there until they
have settled all their differences and
are willing to resume their baseball
business on business principles and not
to fight like cats and dogs and use
underhand methods to "do'' one an
other , " 49,
Some of them say that the baseball
writers give too much space to such
matters, but if the baseball magnates
would stop and ponder moment they
would readily see that the baseball
writer's could not print the facts if the
magnates themselves did not give them
out. 1T is the managers and owners
themselves who are. to blame for
such conditions and not the writ
ers: The public follows base
ball matters more closely per-
haps than any other form Of sport,
and for that reason the magnates
should know what to expect when they
begin fighting among themselves and
trying to fight their battles thru the
newspapers. The Kelley case has been
aired more, probably, than any similar
case for years, simply because the pub
lie has taken an interest in it and be-
cause of the peculiar circumstances
surrounding it. The national commits
sion, the highest tribunal in baseball,
refused to pass on the case, claiming
that it was strictly an association
affair and should be settled there Of
course that is all bunk. The commits
sion could have. passed on it, if it saw
fit, but the members, no doubt, wanted
to avoid trouble in the courts should
they 90 too far.
Mr.. HavenOr, owner of the Milwau-
kee club, has been credited with say
ing that he would not vote to expel
Kelley and also that he would not toll
crate him in the association. Mr..
Havenor did state to the writer that
ne would not want to vote, to take the
bread and butter, away from a man
who depended upon baseball for liv-
ing. but intimated that he would not
vote to retain him as manager in the
managers feel the same way it is posi-
bic that the suspension will be raised
on Kelley. and that he will be allowed
to do business with any league outside
of the association.
It will be a relief to have the case
settled once and for all time and to
get back to former conditions where
the magnates lived in harmony instead
of trying to cut each others threats.
Joe 0 'Brien will be rec lected without
opposition and serve again as president
of the association. i

$4,000 and Fight at Any
Weight.

Milwaukee,. Dee. la great deal Of
weight battle between Kid Herman of
Chicago and Joe Cans, the present
champion, has been taken away by the
action Of Cans in inserting in the new
articles of agreement that if either man
is over weight he must forfeit $4,000
is no chance for Herman being over
weight, for he is much the smaller
man and can easily make the legitimate
limit-l33 pounds ringside-so that the
new proposition must be for the benefit
Of Cans and not Herman. 1t means
that Cans has all the better Of the
weighing bargain, altho when the match
was made he appeared to be giving way
At the legitimate lightweight limit
Herman was gaining friends because
they knew that Cans would have hard
work making 1873 pounds two hours be
fore the contest, especially in colder
weather than when he worked for his
bout with Battling Nelson. They were
willing to take the Herman end of the
contest, but under the new conditions
the chances are that few bets will be
made on the Chicago boy. Cans need
for he can forfeit the $4,000 and go into
the contest strong and weighing nearer
the welterweight limit than the Light
weight. To man as clever as Cans
it will mean big advantage and the
wonder is that Nate Lewis, manager Of
Herman, ever stood for such change
in the articles. .r-.. >E
Cans could well afford to forfeit
$4,000 when it would practically mean
the long end Of the 100000 purse for
him. Herman is training faithfully
for the battle and his friends will be
pulling all the harder for him to win
now since Cans has seen fit to impose
conditions that will give him all the
better of the argument. 1t only goes to
prove that Billy Nolan, manager of
Battling Nelson, was a pretty shrewd
fellow and knew what he was about
when he made Cans toe the scratch re-
garding weight conditions and the like,
even tho he did make himself unpopu-
lar with the sporting public. If Her
man could do the same thing now his
chances Of winning would. be much
brighter. It only demonstrates once
more the old saying that a match well
made is match half won. 49,
