MCFARLAND WANTS
TO FIGHT NELSON

NEW YORK. January 17.-Packey Nc
Farland, the Chicago lightweight. and his
manager. Harry Gilmore. dropped into
New York last night and talked freely of
his future plans. Packey was in fine spir-
its. although he still bore on the bridge Of
his nose a very conspicuous memento OF
his recent encounter with Bert Keyes.
Packey was asked if he thought Keyes
good scrapper. Hes a great scrap
per-" said Packey. as his hand wandered
to the swelling between his eyes. HE
always had the heel of his glove working
on my face" Then Packey launched
forth:
They say haven't got the punch. Two
got it all right. but why should take the
chance of being knocked out when / am
winning? I am only nineteen and have
plenty of time to get TO the top
From this it will be seen that Packey
can talk about as well as Jack OBrien
the confessor. although the Quaker is 4
bit more fiowery. and Packey also has the
acumen of the Philadelphia gentleman.
Packey feels good dnatured toward Tom
my Murphy and Is willing 20 give the
Pride of Harlem the benefit of the doubt
regarding that sprained leg which pre-
vented Murphy fulfilling his engagement
with the Chicago fighter
IF Murphy had posted his forfeit. how
ever said Packey. Il think would have
insisted on him taking off the plaster cast
and showing me something before l would
have given him back his money"
Then Packey went on to say that he
would not fight Murphy six rounds. for he
thought the Harlem boy could hold his
own with anybody for that distance.
Manager Gilmore is now negotiating for
Packey to meet Young Loughrey before
the National Athletic Club of Philadel-
phia January ~ This match will be
clinched unless Battling Nelson Is heard
from. Packey is ready to post $500 at
once for a contest with the Battler..
But no finish fight for me- remarked
the shrewd Chicago fighter. twenty-five
rounds is the limit ! will go with Nelson.
If the Battler accepts ! will do no more
lighting until / meet him.
There is a chance that Packey will have
one short bout in this city. He is talking
il over with the Sharkey A. c. manage
ment. with Johnny Summers as possible
opponent. Packey received S1,1U for his
end of the fight in Boston.

Canoe Club Float Recovered.

The float of the Capital Canoe Club
which was torn from its moorings at the
clubhouse, Georgetown. by the heavy
current early in the week, was located
in the cove on the south side of the East
ern branch near it's mouth The float
was carried by the rapidly moving water
past the piers of the bridges over the
Potomac without striking them and is
said to be but little injured. 1t was taken
back to Georgetown and will be again
moored in front of the canoe club home
When it is made fast this time, mem
bnrs of the club say, the house itself
will have to be carried away before the
float can be again torn from its moorings
by the rush of the water. The float was
a solid structure. built of heavy Georgia
pine timber and this in a measure ac-
counts for the fact that it was but lit
tie damaged in it's trip down the Potomac
on the crest Of the racing flood.
