pugilistic sensation Of the hour. nearly
as big show In his division as Ketchel
was in his, and instead of fighting Sec
ond raters for small purses he will have
no difficulty in getting on with boys
who are great drawing cards.
All these facts serve to show just
what stakes these boys will be fighting
for tonight and indicate that the bat
tie will be far from anything that bor-
ders on the tame Both are clever
boxers and they will put up a pretty
exhibition, but with all the side issues
as special inducements to make a
whirlwind battle of their bout there
is every prospect that they viii mix
it in a manner that should permit one
of them to win by the knockout route
within the limit
1t would be difficult to arrange three
preliminaries that would produce more
genuine rough house fighting than will
result from the bunch offered tonight.
Anslinger defeated the knockout kid,
Picato, when they met several weeks
ago, and will try to win by a Knockout
tonight. His speedy work in his last
engagement which he won by the
dreamland route, has given him con-
fidence in. his punch and he win go
after Picato with a vengeance tonight
On the other hand, Picato will try to
sup just u wipe out that
defeat of several weeks ago.
Walter Fisher win be a pleasant sur
prise to those who have not seen him
in action. He is a fighter, as his easy
defeat of Oyama proved. and he will
try to make good tonight by stopping
Murray. The latter is a rough house
fighter and also wants to make good,
SO it will be whirlwind affair all the
way, with six rounds being sufficient
for one of them to win decisively
Charlie Lucca is a tough PROPOSE
ton for any of the boys in his class
to tackle, but he. also is meeting a
Tartar in Jack Redmond of Milwau-
kee. Redmond has been fighting and
whipping classy boys down east and
takes a preliminary engagement as the
means of introducing himself to the
local fight fans. Because they are real
fighters they have been given a ten
round limit in which to prove them
selves.

TFy HERE is q greater stake at issue
than money to be fought for
= when Freddie Welsh and Frank
Carsey meet tonight before McCarey' s
club for ten-round argument and II
Freddie really has such a thing as a
knockout wallop in his possession he
will show it in this battle. He has been
promised by Battling Nelson that II
he stops Carsey tonight he can have a
scrap for the lightweight champion
ship OF the world. This proposition was
made by Nelson when Welsh was
matched with Phil Brock, but as Car
sey has been substituted for Brock
owing to the latter's inability to Tight
at this time, the proposition still
stands, and 1t is UP to Freddie to light
for that match.
Welsh must knock out Carsey and
do it quickly if he wishes to get
chance at the lightweight champion
ship of the world. The title is worth
s100. 900 to a fighter like Welsh, who is
not so famous for his punch as to
scare all other lightweights out OF the
ring. as his cleverness and speed PROB
ably would make him hard to beat for
the title after he won 1t, and engage
ments in the ring and on the stage
would be ridiculously easy to arrange.
Therefore. since Welsh believes he can
tle of his career tonight, and that
means that the Welsh Carsey scrap
will be worth going many miles to see.
The fact that Carsey claims and
proves by newspaper clippings that
he has defeated Welsh twice previously
has set the fans to figuring upon the
probabilities of a Carsey victory. While
this seems to be rather big under
taking for Carsey at first glance 1t
might not be half as difficult job as
it appears. Carsey knows tnat Welsh
Paclxy Mcfarland calls them snowflake
jabs-and as he is clever and speedy
and has a wallop that means knock
out If it lands he probably will go into
the ring and fight like a cornered
tiger. A..
There is something more than the
money involved tonight for Carsey, as
well as Welsh. If the Chicago poy
should whip Welsh he will become the

Gossip of

hAvID H. BARNES, one of the
greatest race track builders in
America. died last week in Chi
cago. The dispatches fail to state the
cause of death and the news comics as
a big surprise to his coast friends, who
knew him as an extraordinarily large
and seemingly healthy man. saw him
last May in Houston, when he was fig
uring with the Houston race track
people regarding mile track and a
100000 racing plant at the site of the
present Harrisburg road plant, and he
was in the best of health and spirits
then. Barnes was closely associated
with Ed Corrigan in racing enterprises
and was known as one of the stanch-
est friends of the great breeder and
horseman. Barnes built the City Park
Jockey club plant at New Orleans and
was president of the club at his death.
He also built Hawthorne and Elm
Ridge tracks. At the time of his death
he was figuring upon plans for build
ing four or five tracks in Texas in the
idea that the Lone Star state soon Will
be the only state in the Union east
of the Rockies to sanction racing and
that a circuit including Dallas, Hous-
ton, San antonio, Beaumont and Gal
weston would prove profitable. He was
a wealthy sportsman and would have

pie.
The Three-I league season closed
yesterday and Simon and Howard, the
Cedar Rapids players whom Hen Ber-
ry recently purchased, will leave at
once for San Francisco to join the An
gel band and finish out the season
with the pennant winners. Simon has
been drafted by the Boston Nationals,
but the draft probably will not be al
lowed, as Berry had bought the con-
tract several weeks previously with the
condition that Simon could finish out
the season with Cedar Rapids. The
contract therefore belonged to Berry
before September 1, when the draft was
made. That the National baseball COM
mission will not approve the draft Is
indicated in the action taken in a SINH
lar case, that of Outfielder Smith OF
Galveston. Smith was sold to Oakland
and played out the Texas league sea-
son with Galveston. Meantime he was
drafted by a major league club. The
national baseball commission has
granted permission for Smith to report
to Oakland pending the decision in his
case. Simon and Howard will have an
to prove their worth In
the remaining seven weeks of the Coast
league season.
Jim Flynn, college man and famous
athlete, has been given
tryout as umpire in the Coast league
and has made good. He probably will
be signed up for next season, as Bull

be the official ump in charge of the
Beavers games until the team comes
south. Flynn work with O'Connell in
the games at San Francisco and Oak
land. Perrine and O'Connell now are
doubling up for the remainder of the
season.
Joe Thomas will make his debut as
fight referee at San Rafael the last
week in this month Joe knows the
game, even If he could not whip
Ketchei, and should make good. He
has another excellent qualification, his
personal popularity, that should make
the task of making good an easy one.
Reports from Seattle are to the effect
that about the only ones who made any
money at the meeting at The Meadows
were the sharpshooters and Hughey
Jones. The latter is credited with quit
ting more than $4,000 to the good, while
five-sixths of all other bookmakers are
said to have lost heavily. The sharp
shooters seldom made any mistakes and
prospered remarkably well during the
season. Jono was given the booking
privileges at the Denver meeting and
is there now.
Jockey Koerner, regarded a couple of
years ago as the boy who would devel-
op into another Tod Sloan, will ride for
Sam Hiiutsth next winter and is ex-
pected to come from Seattle with the
Hildreth string. Dugan also Is reported
to be under call to Hildreth. 1t looks
very much like Hildreth intended win
ming a few purses and stakes during
the coast winter season. He assuredly
will have the strongest stable at either
track.
Judge q. C. Hopper, who holds the
position of presiding judge at Emery
vile and Seattle, has announced that
he will attend personally to the appli-
cations of Jockeys suspended or ruled
off at Seattle for reinstatement and
says that he will see to it that none of
them get licenses from the Pacific
Jockey club. This, he says, includes
those boys who were suspended or ruled
off and afterward reinstated at the
meeting, owing to political influence. 1t
will include Archibald, Mcintyre,
Sunday and D. Boland.
Stanley Ketchel yesterday celebrated
his twenty-second anniversary. The
Montana whirlwind was more interest
e1 in the result of his fight to win back
his lost championship than in the fact
that it was his birthday.
Ad Wolgast, about the best feather
weight in the east just now, left Chi7
cago last night for Los Angeles to keep
his engagement with the Jeffrles Ath-
letic club to fight Danny Webster
twenty-five rounds the night Of Septem-
Der 20. He should arrive about Friday
and probably will go into training with
out delay, as this will be an important
match. Baron Long wants to keep the
