From the lies


One Stanley Ketchel upheld his repu-
tation on Friday night when he knock
ed out Hugo da Kelf in the third round
in San Francisco. No details of the
fight have arrived yet, and the Coast
papers are eagerly awaited by the local
fans. Everybody here conceded "a
cinch to the winner, and the general
opinion was that the bout would be a
short one. If Stanley really is putting
on weight, it looks very much as though
he would be the next man TO lower
Burns colors.
Now it Is very probable that To-
masso de Brusso will return from Aus
rrana with sadly swollen Uranium as
well as a bullying pocketbook. He has
been away so long that Stanley Ketchel
will be an unknown name to him. I'm
known, that is, save for what he has
read in the papers. He will figure that
it is impossible for a man who was
recently fighting in the weller class to
do anything with him, and he will snap
up fight with Ketchel as more easy
money. Then it may well be that the
curfew will ring, the curtains will drop
and the lights go out for our Canadian
friend. The curio store at Long Beach
will reopen and Burns will retire to
the delights of roping in the easy tour
ist and telling the wide-eyed boatmen
of Long Beach what a great man he
used to be.
Such is the way of fans of all sorts
and sizes. They bait the referee or
umpire at will. 1t is not the decent
sporting fan who does this, but the
gallery bug who let's fifty cents and
then bowls his head off at the decision.
But this same gallery bug has loud
voice, and his roars are heard very
clearly throughout the land. They have
even raised howl about Jim Jeffries,
and in his own town, where everybody
knows what a grand, simple minded
sportsman he is. They are still talk
ing about his Welch- Mcfarland decis-
ion, and it has made jeff so sore that
he has come out with decision to do
no more refereeing. Criticizing JEFF IS
decisions is about as sensible as doing
the same TO Hoyle on whist, Grace on
cricket. or Andie MacAllister on golf.
Los Angeles has not an enviable
record in this line any way. First of
all, poor old Harry Stewart acted as
third man in the ring. After he died
Charlie Eyton took his place. Charlie
knows the game thoroughly and always
did the right thing, but he was hound
ed out of the ring by the malcontents.
Then Eddie Robinson, who was win
ming bare-fist fights before the kickers
were at school, took hand. They
treated him the same way, and the
referee situation was in bad way.
Finally Tommy Walsh came to the res
cue and has been very lucky in referee
lag the pork and bean goes without get
ting gas-piped. Now they kick about
JEFF S work. Ughi 1t makes one sick!

On January 30 the national banks of
New York held S72,O27 900 of public
deposits, s41,OO0,OO0 of which was
placed with them during the October
panic. On the same day the deposit
DRY banks paid over to the govern
ment the first installment of $4,000
900 which Secretary Cortelyou has
called for. This return of small part
of the immense sum loaned TO the
banks without interest, was necessary,
as the receipts of the government are
behind the expenditures. This
is the second call on the banks the
secretary has made since the panic,
the banks having paid the government
$10.OCO,000 under the call of four
weeks ago. The interior banks will
also have to be called on for the re-
turn of part Of the amount deposited
with them for at least S25,OO0,000
more will be needed before the end q

porterhouse steak 80 cents, prime
cuts of native pork, lamb and mutton
90 cents, the best veal 81. Hams and

pean at S1.50; eggs (native) at 20

no local trade in American canned
meats in Mexico City," writes Special
Agent Butman, this line being most
largely confined to the mining re-

sells at 80 cents the pound can, and
Nova Scotia sailed cod at 80 cents the
pound. American breakfast food
preparations of various well known
sorts retail at IS cents per package.
In the fancy biscuit trade, English
products have perhaps a larger sale

both countries being usually priced at
