HART VVH|MPERS
At HIS DEFEAT
ASSERTS HE WAS NOT GIVEN
SQUARE DEAL
Tommy Burns, His conqueror, Agrees
to Return Match and Names CON-
ditons for Their Next
Meeting

Tommy Burns was not at all enter
tanned by the perusal of a news dis
patch from Louisville which quoted
Marvin Hart as saying things which
were calculated to belittle the victory
of the new champion over the sue
cessor to Jeffries' title and reflect upon
the integrity of Burns, Manager Nc
Carey and Referee Eyton.
The dispatch quotes Hart as offering
as his excuse for losing that he was
the victim of a frame-up in which he
accuses Manager McCarey and Referee
Eyton by giving him the worst of it.
Before Hart left Los Angeles after
acquiring a new championship medal
as the worst beaten alleged pugilist
that ever stepped into the local ring.
Hart said that Burns had defeated him
honorably and because he was the best
man, but added that he hoped for a
return match in which he believed he
could reverse the verdict.
At that time Hart evidently had not
concocted the story of deal and it
probably never occurred to him until
he faced an audience of his neighbors
and admirers and realized that he, as
their idol, faced the necessity of franz
ing up an excuse that would rob his
conqueror of the laurels of an honest
and ridiculously easy victory and re-
instate him, Hart, in the graces of his
admirers as the champion of the world.
Such a cry as he is quoted as bawling
is childish and unworthy of serious at
tention. Local fight fans contemptu-
ously laugh at the charge of a frame
up by Manager McCarey and Referee
Eyton. The ease with which Burns
won demonstrated that no frame-up
was necessary, as he was the absolute
master of Hart every minute of the
battle and Hart left the ring the worst
beaten battler who ever engaged in a
bout before the local club.
Hart is made to say in the telegraphed
interview that he can defeat Burns If
given a square deal and a fair umpire
In response to this declaration Burns
has this to say
IF Hart is sincere in believing he
can defeat me and has $4,000 that he
will post as side bet, I will give him
return match this summer. l found
him so easy when we met last month
that 1 cannot figure him other than
easy money and, while I intended TAX
ing up a vaudeville engagement for
several weeks before again entering
the ring, | would not mind winning his
$4,000 and will go to Louisville to. do it
and agree to go to finish without IA
referee or other official save time
keeper"
The five thousand fans who wit
messed the battle last month will unan-
imously support Burns to repeat his

easy trouncing of the Kentuckian
should they meet again, which is not
at all probable, as Hart would have
no chance with the husky young Can
adam in limited round go or a finish
fight.
Burns is at his best at 175 pounds and
over and believes he is the master of
any heavyweight in the world, Jeffres
alone excepted. The speed, footwork,
generalship in the ring and cool-headed
boxing exhibited by him when he
whipped Hart to a standstill was
distinct and startling revelation to the
fans who have witnessed Burns in
battle when half-dead from training to
make weight at a sacrifice of cou-
dition.
Hart is slow moving, slow think
ing and emotional overgrown boy in
the ring and he depends upon his wal
lop to win as against science and an
equal amount of effectiveness in de-
livering the punch that counts
When he failed to land this walop
after many Intellectual Attempts he
went soaring and never lit until after
Referee Eyton rendered judgment
against him. The decision was emin-
emily fair and could not have been
otherwise except by fraud.
Burns is ready and willing to defend
his claims upon the heavyweight
championship against all comers, in
Guiding Jack O'Brien, AL Kaufman,
Sam Berger or any others except JEFF
fries, the retired champion.

Percy Megargel, who is now stalled in
the muddy roads of New Mexico with
his REQ car, with which he is endeavor-
ing to make a round trip transconti-
mental journey, says that there is abso-
lutely no travel by wagon over the
trails at this time, and to secure a
team to carry gasoline to the REQ car
one day Megargel had to walk fourteen
miles and then bribe a Mexican team
ster until the former had practically
purchased the latter's outfit before he
would consent to undertake the drive,
only to result in his wagon breaking
down after an eight hours journey over
stretch of twelve miles, compelling
Mesargel to carry the fuel for the last
two miles.
A 4OO0-mile tire competition has been
planned by the Automobile club of
Great Britain and Ireland, and eleven
entries have been received from tire
manufacturers. The interest in this
event abroad is far greater than was
the case here last summer, when the
tire manufacturers refused to make
entries in the competition held at Long
Branch.
The Baby REQ" which attracted so
much attention at the New York and
Chicago automobile shows. is we'll on
the way to California and will soon be
on exhibition at the show rooms of Leon
Shelter. The car weighs 2431s pounds
and is an exact reproduction of the
REQ touring car.
In certain eastern farming section
lives Elmer NJ. Cooper, who uses a
gasoline engine as labor saving device
about the farm. But in addition
Cooper is what might be termed an
automobile fanCer Last summer he
gained considerable notoriety by own
ing seven different makes of cars. lie
bought one and in a short time becom-
ing tired of it bought another, finding
each nearer to his conception of the
ideal than the previous one. Cooper
has gas engine which pumps water
all over his farm. The other day this
gas engine was disabled and refused to
run. 1t meant either pump water by
hand, get the engine fixed or choose
some other way out of it. The resource
full Cooper backed his automobile up
against the pumping apparatus, lacked
up one rear wheel, transferred the belt
and started his auto going. The pump
worked admirably and the automobile
pumped enough water all over the farm
to water the stock. Before the engine
could be repaired Cooper had to send
away for some broken parts. 1t took
some time and in the meantime all
hogs needed shelled corn. The shelter,
of course, could have been operated by
hand, but 1t was too tiresome a process
when one had been used to having 1t
done by machinery, thought Cooper, so
he hitched the automobile on to the
shelter and in less time than it would
have taken the regular engine sixty
bushels of corn We're shelled.

Rejects ALL STREET BIDS
Council Instructs Board of Public
Works to Readvertise the
improvements

In order to avoid all legal technical
tiles the council yesterday passed a res
olution rejecting all bids for street i'm
provements submitted since the first
of the year, and instructed the board
of public works to readvertise for the
same improvements.
This action effects fifty streets for
which bids have been received, and
some have even gone so far as the
award of contract. These awards of
contract have been held in the mayor S
office since the first week in January.
A great many more improvements were
advertised, but the majority of them
were not bid on, contractors fearing
that they would be unable to collect
their money for the work if they per-
formed it. An example of this was
shown yesterday morning when the
hour for opening bids arrived.
Thirty-five improvements had been
advertised but only one bid was re-
ceived.
