PUGS TO HOLD
45=ROUND PRIVATE BATTLE
Tony Bender and Smith to
Settle an Old Score
Tomorrow.

Jersey sports who are In right will
have an opportunity to witness what
promises to be one of the greatest
fights ever pulled off between two Jer-
sey boys tomorrow afternoon. when
Tony Bender clashes in a Aground go
with Smith, of Elizabeth. The bout
is for the championship of Elizabeth,
and will likewise settle a much-mooted
question among the Betsytown sports
as to who is the better man.
Smith and Bender are enemies. and
have been for some years past. The
excellent showing made by Smith in
his New York fights have led his
friends to believe that he would have
a fine chance to wrest the honors from
Bender in a long fight. so the Aground
mill was agreed upon.
Both men have much backing. and
though only a few of the insiders will
be permitted to see the bout, he bet
ting is very lively. The men will enter
the ring about 3 o'clock in the after
noon, and expect to have the question
of supremacy settled long before the
limit.

WONDER IF
FOUR CATCHERS
WILL Be KEPT
Some Think Paul KrichelI Will
Be Let Go, but Stallings
Says Not.

Newark fans are wondering what
Manager Stallings intends to do with
his catchers. At present he has four,
any of whom could go in and catch tip
top ball. Krichell has not been worked
in some time. nor has Philbin. Stanage
Is doing the bulk of the receiving at
present on account of his great form.
Speculation is rife as to what will
become of Krichell, the little backstop
who was obtained by Manager Burn.
ham from the Connecticut League two
years ago. Rumor had Krichell going
to Montreal and later to Providence.
Stallings, however, intimates that
Krichell will be kept for the present.
If a chance presented itself to make
a good swap for a capable third base
man, it is thought that one of the back
stops would be let go. though it is cer-
tain that neither Stanage nor Carisch
would be the ones.
Krichell started off the season at q
lively clip. but doing bench duty has not
put him in any too good shape. so II
rather looks now as though he will moi
be used unless some of the other catch
ers get injured.

SAYS DANE HAS

Otto FIOttO Claims Nelson Has
Always Been on the
Level.

1t is amusing to note how some
sporting writer's throughout the coun-
try have longed for the opportunity to
announce Il a the recent fight between
Cans and Nelson was a fake, says otto
Flotto in the Denver Post. They have
been waiting patiently since Saturday,
and not even the slightest indication
that the fight was not absolutely on
the square has made its appearance
OF course. ii was sail and wormwooi

sorts of explanations TO- the defeat Of

To his dying day Nelson will adhero
to the fact that he did not foul Cans
at Goldfeld, and as he expressed it
himself to me last iaIl when he said:

pictures, in the first place. bore out his
statements. and the result Of the last
battle emphasizes the fact that what
he said after the Goldfeld engagement
was true. That he believes In his
heart he can beat Cans any time and
anywhere. is also shown by the eager
ness he displayed in rematching himself
to again meet Cans on September 7
next. II will be remembered that Cans
forced Nelson to wait two years for a
return match. while Nelson My wants
Cans to wait two months to demon
strate whether or not the Dane is his
master.
II those actions don't show the real
fighter. don't know what else he can
do to demonstrate the fact. How many
men who won a championship by hard

opponent throughout the ountry would
have agreed to again meet him in so
short q time? Not one in any class
in the world. II shows how honest the
little Dane is. and no wonder his name
has never in any manner. form or
shape been connected with a shady
transaction from the day that Teddy
Murphy picked him up until he defeat
ed Joe Cans at Coln1a last Saturday
and became the undisputed lightweight
champion of the world. He Is not only
honest in all his dealings. but In all his
methods. Whether at tho fighting game
or in business matters, it's all the same.
Nelson has offers of some splendid
theatrical engagements, and Is risking
the loss Of them If defeated by Cans on
September Z. This again indicates how
certain he is that he a Gans's goat
is willing to fight him at all times.
