The ill-informed persons who argue that John l.. Sullivan was champion of the world have returned to the charge with this fusillade of alleged facts says the New York Press.
 'Jem Mace was the champion of England. He retired and the title went to Joe Goss Tom Allen was the champion of America. tioss came over here and whipped Allen. The cham pion of England whipped the cham plon of America. That certainly made Goss champion of the world. and he was so recognized at the time.
 Paddy Ryan met Goss for the title and beat him. That made Ryan the worlds champion. Sullivan beat Ryan in 1882, nine rounds. That made John the champion"
 That sounds plausible and would be fine for Sullivan provided the state ments were based on facts. Rut they are not. Goss was never champion of Englan.s. either tx conquest or default and the only title Dc ever possessed was the championship of America. which he won from Tom Allen near Covington. Ky. on September !. 1876. Ryan then beat GoSs and sullivan beat Ryan.
 Mace and Goss came to America to- gether in iST6 aud Mace. having beat en Allen in iS70 on the occasion of his first visit here when they fought for the worlds title. stood aside and per

THE PUGILISTS WAITING FOR
 THE BATTLE
The Schreck and Hart Fight Ought to Be a Fierce One = Other
 Fight News.

With the heavyweight battle be- tween Mike Schreck and Marvin Hart only few days off, the Nevada sports are beginning to sit up and dope out the winner of the event. All agree that on paper the fight will re- suit in the toughest contest ever staged. Both Schreck and Hart are known gluttons for punishment and neither one knows what the word quit means. On account of his great showing against John Willie, Schreck will be local favorite. Had not Hart won the heavyweight cham pionship by knocking out Jack Root, at Reno, Nev, Schreck would rule a 2 to l fayorite Hart's record, the closer students looks over it, is the best in the fight dope book. Schreck probably is slightly the clev- crest of the two. Hart, no doubt, hits the hardest. There can be no choosing as to staying qualities. gameness or ring generalship.
