MONDAY CHALLENGES
ROB NACKEY AGAIN
Wants Finish Match With Man he
Couldn't Throw In an Hour.
Shoulder Well Now.

Young Monday comes to the front
again with a proposition to wrestle Rob
Roy MaCkey to a finish.
Monday recently undertook to throw
Mackey twice In an hour. and not only
did not throw him at all. but came near
being thrown himself He had the ad-
vantage in weight and was known to
be a good man. but his showing was
poor. Since then he has explained that
his shoulder was in bad shape. but that
he said nothing about it for fear of los
ing the match.
Now, he says. his shoulder and cauli-
flower ear are in condition. and there
will be nothing to prevent him from de-
Hvering the goods, Those who saw the
former match were evenly divided in
their opinions about 7yhether or not
Monday could have gown Mackey
eventually, and this difference has
caused Mondays challenge TO fe taken
seriously. That he did not come 10 his
usual standard in graphing with Mack
ey is a certainty. and If he Is all right
next time and his rival is also in con-
dition, then there should be a lively
session when they meet. with Monday a
slight favorite because Of his weight

NEW YORK. March 10-Eddie Han
Ion, who has fought both McGoYern and
Nelson, picks the former TO win, and
tells his reasons why. Eddie fought
McGovern at Philadelphia and lost in
the fourth round after putting Terry
nat on his back n the same round
He rushed in wildly and was battered
TO corner when the referee stopped it.
In San Francisco more than a year
ago Eddie lost to Nelson after nineteen
rounds of hard going The referee also
stopped this fgat, as Hanlon was help
less.
In his letter he says:
Favors Terry.
II don't take this fight to be a cinch
on either side. 1 am almost afraid 10
say who will win on a knockout. but
] rather favor Terry, after I consider
ali things. McGovern should give Nell
son an awful hight for six rounds, and
II his recent Illness has left no bad
effects he ought 10 win.
'McGOvern is a much better puncher
than Nelson.
Terry can fight very fast for six
rounds and II he is not all in, lookout.
He may not put Nelson out, but don I
be surprised if he drops him few
times
Abe AtteIl, the featherweight cham
pion, who has met Nelson, thinks tho
Dane will win over Terry. Abe never
met MCIuNEl4lf bll was uidtCtiEO Will
him, and has seen him in many a fight.
He told me tefore the MurphyMc-
Govern fight that Terry would win

he says Terry has no chance and will
be worn down before the limit

They say that Terry is a fierce
rusner. Well, he never rushes the way
Nelson does. He might be a harder
hitter. but I'll tell you that his punches

Needless Suffering.

Link was IN great pain throughout the
contest and once when Bauer rolled
on the bad hand he could not suppress
a cry Of anguish. He worked entirely
with the good hand and his feet. and
was a sorry spectacle. Weiss was re-
quested to take him off, but Link said he
was willing TO continue, and there would
probably have been another go be-
tween them If Pat O'Connor had not
jumped in as referee and refused to
allow them to continue. Pat explained
that as Links hand was broken again
and that the German was bleeding so
badly at the nose. it would hurt the
game TO have any more such alleged
sport.
O'Connor was right Gameness is al
ways admired by sporting crowd, but
nothing is to be gained by seeing u man
endure needless brutal punishment when
he has nothing TO gain, and if more ref
ereeS acted along the same line the
knockers would not have so much ma
terial for their anvil chorus. Link said
he'd take to the mat again and was in
his corner ready for business. but after
the crowd had cleaned out he privately
confessed that he was glad it was
stopped and thanked the man who was
responsible for bringing his misery to
an end

ANOTHER RINGER
on HARNESS TURF
Sweetheart Believed TO Be
Marjory Wilkes.
MAY HAVE DYING HABIT
Report That Suspected Mare Was
Burned to Death Makes Little
Impression.

viii the trotting turf Of 1905 have
another ringing case similar to the
Dry Monopole-Tasberg fraud of last
season?
According to late reports from C1eve-
land. the authorities will do well to
keep track OF a mare named MaTjoTy
Wilkes. which IS believed to have been
''rung in" during the latter part OF
last season under the name of Sweet
heart
During the past few weeks there has
been an apparently well founded rumor
that the pacing mare raced in Alabama
and Georgia as Sweetheart was none
other than Marjory Wilkes, with the
official record Of 2.l91+.
Drivers Story.
She was raced over Michigan tracks
earlier in the season under her right
name and then shifted South and start
ed in green classes. AS soon as the
matter became public. a driver named
Hennessey, who trained for J. 7.
Dewey, OF Cleveland, admitted OF hav-
ing in his string 4 green mare named
Sweetheart, but Owner Dewey claimed
that she was kept at home at the time
the alleged Sweetheart" was racing
In the South.
This statement was at once put down
as a further evidence Of the ringing
| case, and horsemen looked upon 1t with
renewed suspicion.
Burned to Death.
A dispatch from Cleveland last night
says that a fire destroyed the stable Of
Dewey, and among the horses that per
tshed was this green mare Sweetheart.
This sounds very much like the Dry
Monopole case. in which the fast PAGER
died at several places. including Madi-
son Square Garden, but later arose
from the dead under the name Of Tss-
berg.
The report says that the matter is
being looked after by the authorities
of the American Trotting Association.
and the harness world may yet hear
OF this burned-to-death PAGER.
The weekly turf press always have
| hints about moro than one suspected
ringer, while l. is a well-known fact that
both Secretaries GoCher and Knight. Of
the National and American Trotting As
sOciations. have number of suspected
ringing cases under investigation, and
more evidences OF this turf crime may
be made public before the racing season
opens.
