GOTCH MAKING HAY.

Frank Gotch hopes to secure the
famous toe hold upon Hacken-
schmidt, the Russian Lion, when
they meet for the championship of
the world. There are half a dozen
promoters in Chicago who are anX-
ious to put the bout on, while Kan
sas City, Denver, Milwaukee and st
Paul are all holding out inducements
to secure the attraction. The best
offer thus far is $4,000, offered by
a coterie of Chicago sporting men.
Gotch is confident, however, that a
$4,000 purse will be Forthcoming
and he will not sign articles until
Hackensehmidt arrives in America.
The Russian is due to land in New
York on March Z.
Before he meets Hackenschmidt,
Gotch has cut out a tour for himself
of 5000 miles, appearing in Boston,
Hartford, Paterson, Syracuse, Grand

City, Dallas, Galveston, Jacksonville,
New Orleans, st Paul and Fargo. n.

Hackenschmidt, the Russian Lion. 4"
w. w. Wittig of Minneapolis, who
was instrumental in getting the for
ejgner to consent to come to this
country, claims that Gotch agreed
to wrestle under his auspices. The
American wrestler denies this and
states that he is open to the most
favorable offer.
DR. John j. Message of Chicago
says he had talk with Gotch and
that the latter will wrestle under his
auspices. Western sporting men be-
lieve that Gotch is preparing to
avoid meeting the Russian Lion, :"
as he knows very well Hacken-

try except under the management of
Wjttig. Wittig is said to have put
up $4,000 personally to induce the
