Now Arlie was the bane of Chris
life. although it is doubtful if there
ever was another ball player who
worked for Chris who stood as high in
the German managers esteem as did

GREAT INTEREST
In England Over Coming
BurnS-mOir Bout.
Nothing Like Seen Since Jem
Mace Last Appeared.
Burns the Fav0rlte With the Odds
Now Five TO -Four.

London, Dec 1-Memories of the

of professional boxing, have been re-
viycd by the prospects of a great fight
Dec ., when Tommy Burns, America.
and Gunner" Jim Moir. England, will
meet i'll that historic building for the
heavyweight championship Of the
world.
This forthcoming contest is creating
greater interest than any since those
in Whirh Mace, tho last English holder
OF the title, took part, for there is a
feeling iii some circles that Moir'S
greater weight. reach and height and
the experience thai he has gained il
many fights AT Tie National Sporting
Club will be sufficient To overcome

championship back 10 England after

Burns hackers probably will nave to

part of the bettors in the English
champion is due to Burns record in
America and the fact that he is much
the faster fighter. Mor is considered
Slow, even for an English boxer. The
trainers have been working to liven
him up, but il is doubtful whether the
Ensiishman will develop enough speed
to reach the moro active American
with hl& heavy hitting. 1t is on This
hitting that Moir has depended to win
his previous battles.
Unless NOR has been over-rated--
he has never before met a man of
Burns class-the American must de-

MUGGSY WANTS TENNEY.
Manager Of Pirates Needs Him to Hold
Down First Sack.

New York, Dec. 1.-Manager Nc
Graw has his lines pretty we'll laid out
for next season, and one of his pres
ent plans is to secure Fred Tenney for
first base. 1t has been known for
some time that Mccain has been
slated for a trade. while, despite all
the talk about the prowess of young
Merkle. McGraw wants a thoroughly
seasoned man for the first station. And
that man McGraw believes is Tenney
more than any other available player.
Many here. however. regard it as eX-
tremely doubtful whether the Boston
club would consent to such a trade,
certainly not unless the Giants offered
considerably more than McGann. Fans
feel there is a far better chance Of
Tenney eventually coming to New
York on three cornered deal than
that McGraw put through any straight
trade with Boston.

Flowers ON Ocean Grave.

An unusual service on the ocean was
reported by the officers of the steamship
Keonigin Luise, which arrived at New
York yesterday from Genoa, Naples, and
Gibraltar.
On the vessels last voyage from Europe
a Mrs. Prentice, of Chicsgo,a cabin pas
senger, died, and by order of an Italian
immigration commissioner, who was on
board, her body was buried at sea
This action is said to have been taken
in the face of protests made by Mrs.
Preutice's daughter, and other pas
sengers. The steamships officers declared
themselves to be helpless, however, in
view of the commissioner order.
When on the outward trip, the steam
ship passed near the spot where the body
had been put overheard, large box Of
flowers was lowered over the side of the
Koenigin Luise and set adrift in the
ocean.
