FRESNO, Cal, Feb. 27.-In a re-
markable twenty-four hour exhibition
Gregory local bowler, last night fin
ished the last of 105 straight games
without sleep or rest. He played
against Wilson and was otherwise un-
paced.
Gregory bowled over 19.703 pins. The
worlds record is held by Harry X.
Rauss, who bowled over 23.010 pins
in the same time, but bowled 118
games. Krauss was paced by seven
good men and the race was not in
actual competition. Experts say that
Gregory's exhibition is a world beater
of it's kind.

back Gregory against any man in the
world in a similar match, twenty-four
hours bowling, for the total number
of pins, with $1,000.

Britt Plays to Standing Room at East

WilIus Calls for
Silence

TT OW can Jimmy Britt and Bat Mel
III son get around the no-decision
~ clause in the local boxing laws and
have a one-man opinion rendered as
to the outcome of the fight at the
Cabin next Tuesday night? This ques-
tion is worrying both fighters, for on
the result of their fourth meeting de-
pends more than did any of their other
engagements.
The winner of the go is in line for a
shot at Packey Mcfarland and the big
money that will accompany such a
show. While they both announce their
satisfaction at the way fights have
been decided here since the ten-round
shows began, the boxers feel that
one-man opinion should be had in order
to decide who will get the plum with
Mcfarland.
In all probability the fighters will
get together before Monday and agree
on the man who will declare on the
outcome of the fight. There is nothing
in the city ordinance which prevents a
person voicing his opinion on the re-
suit of a mill, and just so he is not in
the ring or acting as referee 1t will
be well within the law.
Interest in the coming mill between
the two great lightweights is indicative
of full house at the Cabin Tuesday,
for on every side the relative merits of
the contestants are discussed. When
the match was first made Britt was
looked upon as a cinch, but as the
time passes and the fans have chance
to study the dope Nelson gains in pop
ularity.
Bat Is Confident
And Bat himself is all confidence. 81
could go on tonight and put up the best
fight of my career" said the Dane at
San Pedro yesterday. Il will meet
Britt on even terms Tuesday night, and
the public can see just how lively a
dead one 1 am. I think everyone at
the pavilion will find me very much
alive"
This is the spirit which infect5 the
whole Nelson camp, and also most of
San Pedro. The Battler has worked in
surprisingly clever form since going to
the beach town and in his daily bouts
| with Dalton and others has displayed
more boxing ability than he was
thought capable of. When this is added
to his aggressiveness and general abil-
ity to stand the hardest kind of beat
ing, it does not look as though Nelson
is such a cinch, and Britt will not be
such an overwhelming favorite as
might be expected.
Jimmy Britt put in the hardest day
yet recorded at the East Side club, and
again the mob which tried to invade
his training quarters was too large to
be accommodated. James Edward was
down below the 135-pound mark in the
his regular work on the road, but this
did not keep him from getting real
busy in the gymnasium.
The morning was not entirely wasted
and after lunch Britt pulled on the
gloves and tackled Dannie Webster for
three fast spasms. Charlie Anslinger
came next and Tiv Kreling and his big
pillow wound up the show. AS usual
Brother Willus busted into the glow
by demanding silence in the court, de-
claring that the spectators shouldn't
laugh at the fancy part Of the Britt
Kreling stunt 1t takes Bill to i'm

After investigating their in-and-out
running it was discovered that Asso-
ciate is a horse that will only run from
the spurs and Jockey Miller, who pilot
ed him, rides so short in his stirrups
that the horse did not feel the points
and refused to extend himself. Silver

there was no use in probing into the

recovery of property TO which de-
PENDANTS lay claim and to have their

UNION FAILS TO
DO ANYTHING

GOLDFIELD, March 4.-The spe-
cial union meeting of the Western
Federation of Miners held here last
night was barren of results. The
miners voted to accept the Tonopah
scale and make an open camp, but
the mine owners refuse to meet their
terms. The operators declare they
will make no further concessions.
President Maekinnon of the miners
says that President Lockhart of the
+ lorence mines was a party to the
agreement to end the strike by maxi
ing Goldfield an open camp and
adopting the Tonopah scale. Lock
hart in reply says that he was ap-
preached by the miners committee
which made this proposition, but that
he refused to consider it, He voted
to stay with the operators associa-
tion.
The striking miners here are in
bad shape. Their treasury Is empty
and there is little strike benefit
money coming in. Goldfeld mines
are resuming under association rules.
The Rogers syndicate and Red Top
Consolidated company started opera
tions with 20 men. Over 100 men
are now working in the camp.

Cowan, well known mining man.
came from Butte today after having
witnessed the change that has come
over the camp during the past two
or three days. He states that there
is all kinds of rejoicing over the turn
that affairs have taken, but the mo-
tives of Amalgamated in starting up,
he says, are not viewed in camp in
just the way IT has been explained
by Manager John ID. Ryan.
The impression at Butte is that
the Amalgamated company has de-
cided to begin production on a large
scale again not because IL has figured
better prices for the metal by the
time It is ready to supply the mar
ket, but with set determination to
hold the price down until such time
as the Michigan operators can be
made to stand in on a plan to regu-
late and maintaineprices. Butte points
out that when practically all other
copper producers cut down the rate
of production in order to help out

Jim Karsaki. a Greek crazed by suf-

went from the tent in which he was
confined at MeGill early yesterday
morning and securing his clothing
made away. Not having since been
seen, it is feared that he is now wan
dering in the hills and will perish.
karsaki, whose throat was cut
about two weeks ago by two Greeks
who slipped into his tent in the dead
of night. was confined in a tent near
the hospital at McGill. Yesterday
morning between and he arose
and after sitting for a time on the
side sf his bed. staring vacantly
around him, got up and going to the
stove picked up poker and com
meneed to turn IL over in his hand.
The guard told him TO put 1t down,
but instead of doing this the insane
patient jumped upon his nurse and
before the latter could defend HIM
self. beat him into a state of insensi-
bility.
After doing this. the man. dressed
only in his under clothing, ran from
the door of the tent and went to "A

his being at large. Deputy Sheriff

he boarded train for California.
Either theory is bad enough, as the

Son of Pluneer Goes Into
GOIdfieId--Sa' -
of Coalition !
RaWhide for.

RENO, March 4.-One of the big
gest deals since the early history of
Goldfield In mining way took place
IN Reno today, when the property of
the Rawhide Coalition company at
Rawhide passed into the control of
E. w. King of Montana, Nat c. Good
win 4 Co., and Eugene Grutt, after
wrom the famous Grutt hill of Raw
hide is named.
The purchase price was first given
out as 81 10000 but late tonight
King authorized the announcement
that the price paid was 5000, 900.
The purchase was made from about
20 men. the original locators of the
land. which is believed to be the rich
est in the district if not in the entire
state.
King is one of the best known
capitalists of Montana. He was for
merly speaker of the house of repre-
sentatives of Montana and owns
banks at Bozeman and Helena. The
Nat C. Goodwin company is headed
by the veteran actor, who gave up the
stage year ago TO engage In mining
and who has met with much success
in Rawhide and other Nevada deals
of late.
Another deal of almost equal i'm
portance, though at somewhat lar
ger figure, was also consummated
here today, when Charles Gates, son
of John w. Gates, the steel magnate
and racetrack plunger of Chicago,
purchased control of the Combina-
tion Fraction at Goldfield, securing
the stock from AL Meyers and Thom-
as Murphy, who verified the sale
here tonight. The price paid was
100000. though the stock is quoted
on the boards at about Sc cents. This
is explained by the statement that
If they were to go on the open mar
ket for the stock the price would
soon advance to a far greater figure
than 1t is now selling at. year ago

the lake companies were importuned
to join in the movement for the well

Instead, the lake operators kept right
on producing the maximum amount

1t is argued that the lake mines
