The Next Cordell-SulIivan Go
Should Furnish the
Winner.
By Fl. M. Ayres.

The coming twenty-round contest be-
tween Jack Cordell and Dick Sullivan
is attracting particular attention on
account of the fact that five rounds
more have to be boxed this trip than
was~the case on the two previous occa-
sion when these boxers met.
Each of these battles resulted in a
draw, and a mighty even draw at that.
Another fifteen-r round bout between the
men would be not unlikely to result in
a similarly indecisive manner.
This time, however, the route has
been heightened five rounds, or to bring
it down to time, quarter Of an hour.
The extra fifteen minutes glove work
may easily prove fateful to the prin-
cipals.
In this climate fifteen hard-fought
rounds test a man s. stamina and en-
durance to the limit. How then about
FIVE rounds more? If either of the
boxers has a weak spot in his physical
makeup or has neglected his training,
the extra session is sure to find him
out
Both Sullivan and Cordell realize
that they must be in the very best of
kilter for their coming engagement and
both are going about their training
with a refreshing vim. Sullivan has
to make weight and that alone assures
that it will be strictly business with
him until p. m. of Saturday, the 14th
inst.
Who will wins That is a difficult
question. Cordell will find his natural
ruggedness stand him in good stead be
fore the round limit is reached. He
can assimilate punishment as well as
deal il out, and in his last two contests
showed that he possesses a good second
wind.
AS to Sullivan, he will probably con-
serve his strength and fight coolly,
trusting to administer the coup de
grace when his opponent is firing to-
ward the finish of the bout.
One thing is certain, and that is that
the contest will be worth coming miles
to witness. Such a match, on the top
of two ffteen-round draws, would be
a big attraction on the Coast and local
fight fans are to be congratulated on
having a chance to witness a sterling
encounter by two well nigh perfect
physical specimens of humanity, and
one which is likely to remain fresh and
green in the memories of lovers of box
ing for many years to come.

LANE HANDS OUT
AN INVITATION

Jack Cordell s trainer, Tommy Lane,
paid a visit to this office last night and
stated that his principal was having a
hard time to get sparring partners. He
also said that he understood there
were several of the Rapid Transit boys
who worked in the railway gymnasium
and were clever boxers.
He wishes it understood that any of
the boys who wish to work with the
pillow cushions with Jack at the
Marine camp gymnasium in the after
noon, between and o'clock, viii
not only be welcome but will be paid
the usual pro rata for that class of
work.
Mr.. Lane is taking great care Of
his man and is much exercised over
the lack of proper sparring material.
This offer is not confined to the rail-
way boys, but it is the latter whom
he would prefer to see put in an ap-
pearance, as he knows that they are
keen sportsmen and always fit for a
good hard mill.

LADDER ROUTE
IS APPROVED
Riversiders Unanimously Grant
Their Players Right to
Try Out.
BY w. Tin Chong.

A lively meeting took place at the
offices of Atkinson & Quarles, in the
Judd building yesterday at noon, by
the members of the Riverside League
The meeting lasted for more than an
hour and several of those who attended
were deprived of their monday lunch.
All the teams were represented and
besides these, there were C. K. Abe,
vice president Of the Oahu Junior
League, and Samuel di Hoppe, who is,
by the way, the treasurer of the same
league.
The first matter which received the
attention of the members was motion
by Nick Hoopii, manager and, in fact,
everything else for the Eheu kids, who
wanted to have on record that David
Desha, champion fielder of his team be
given full authority to act for the Aalas
when he, Hoopii, should happen away.
Nobody seemed to care who represented
them and Hoopii's prayer was unan,
read the minutes of the previous meet
ing, which were approved as read.
A communication from Chas. Falk,
president of the Honolulu League, was
read. Falk wanted the Riversiders to
give special privileges to some of the
players to play in his league without
being barred. For awhile the request
was warmly discussed, but it was final
ly settled to everybody's satisfaction.
Hoopii, who will be directly in pilikia
should the request be denied, made a
not argument in favor of it, the which
could be heard for few blocks away
and it was clearly noticed that this
had some effect on the other members,
who at last agreed with him. The
president was asked to notify Mr.. Falk
that the league acquiesced.
Jimmy Williams is no more umpire
hereafter He was not fred, but re-
signed. There was no reason stated
in his letter of resignation and after
a few minutes talk, the members de-
cided to accept the same. Then fight
took place as to who will be the next
umpire. En- Sue and Alfred Will
Hams were both mentioned for the
place. Finally Jack Atkinson came to
the rescue and told the members that
he is the one who will have the power
to appoint the man, but the same must
be approved by the members of the
league. He then stated that Alfred
Williams will be the one to receive the
honor, with Aylett as substitute. His
action was unanimously passed with
everybody's kokua.
The last business was from the Oahu
Junior League. They wanted the River
siders to permit them to play during
The forenoon at Aala Park. Samuel di
Hoppe appeared as the spokesman for
the Oahu Juniors. He not only wanted
to play there, but also asked the River
siders to allow them the use of the
ground outfit This was given them and
hereafter the Junior games will take
place at Aala Park Next Sunday the
Asahis A. c. and the Murdoch will
clash in the first game.
Nothing else came up for the mag
mates to talk about and the meeting
at last adjourned.

M|LL|CAN GOES
 TO PEN|TENT|ARY

Unable to make the appeal bond of S5ooo fixed for him by Circuit Judge Eugene Lankford, L. E. Milligan, who was convicted for murder in the second degree for killing Joe c. Herring and sen fenced to ten years imprisonment at the recent term of circuit court, left this morning to begin his pen itentiary sentence. He was accom- panied by Deputy Sheriff c. w.. Stewert.
 Col. c. w. Bruce. who repre- sents Milligan, states that Milligan is beginning his sentence because he cannot make his bond ard would have to remain in jail. The case has been appealed to the SUI preme court, and Col. Bruce says he is confident of a reversal or at least a reduction in the sentence, but pending the appeal it was thought best for Milligan to be serving a part of his sentence, since he would have to remain imprisoned until the supreme court passes on the case.

TOURISTS BEGIN TO ARRIVE
Hot Springs Expects More Visitors This
 Year Than Usual

Hot Springs, Feb. Especial. - With the opening of the resort "season" which is generally re- garded as beginning about the first of February, the people of Hot Springs are keeping one eye on the incoming trains and the other up- on the legislature at Little Rock, speaking rather 6guratively. The faction which favors an "open" town with gambling and betting on horse racing permitted to four ish is hoping that the legislature will be liberal" and pass a law nullifying the Amis anti-turf-gam- bling law which closed up Oak land race track two years ago.
 The element which has regard for the morals of the community is keeping close tab on the incoming trains to see how many tourists are arriving. If the visitors continue to come in large numbers indica- ting that this season will see the usual number, about 10000, the Performer" will shout gleefully that the chief argument of the advocates of an open town has been punctured, and that moral town is not conductive to bank ruptcy
 The fight has been a bitter one and has been waging between the two factions for the past three years and the end is not yet ill sight.
 The indications are that Hot Springs will have prosperous season as many tourists have al ready arrived and taken up their quarters at the large hotels.
 The homogeneous of two of the largest hostelries have spent thou sands of dollars during the past summer in repairing and refurnish- ing their places in anticipation ot the biggest "season" ever experien- ced.

CITY APPEALS
 WADDELL CASE

Little Rock, Feb. I.-Special.- The brief for the appellant in the case of the city of Conway against Charles w. Waddell was filed by Attorney R. w. Robins in the supreme court this morning The case grew out of a sale of books on the public square of Con- way by Waddell, who after having been repeatedly warned by the officers that he was violating an or dinance of the city, persisted in making the sales and was brought before the mayor and fined $50, the case being tried June 27, 1908. Waddell appended to the circuit court, where the court instructed a verdict of not guilty, holding that the ordinance under which Wad- dell was convicted was too broad. The city excepted from the rul- ing and appealed to the supreme court.
 In its brief the city contends that it had the power to enact the ordinance under the general vel fare" clause of the statutes, grant ing municipality the right to pass such ordinances, not incon- sistent with state laws, as may seem necessary to provide for the safety, preserve the health, pro- mote the prosperity and improve the comfort and convenience of such corporation and the inhabi- tants thereof" " It is also contend ed that the right to pass the ordi- nance was granted in the act pro- viding that cities may control, su pervise and police it's streets and public grounds.

APPOINTMENT WAS ACCEPTED
Chief Justice Hill Resigns from
 Supreme Court.
Place Taken by Associate Justice McCul loch, who is Succeeded by Sam
 Frauenthal of Conway.

Little Rock, Feb. I.-Special.- After the decisions of the su- preme court had been rendered this morning, Joseph M. Hill, who has been serving the state for the past four years as chief justice of the supreme court, announced that he had decided to accept the commits sion as chief attorneys for the state in the S5o,o ,ooo fight against the in- crease in rates by the railroads. Chief Justice Hill made brief ad- dress to the attorney present, thanking them for the considera- tion shown him and regretting his departure from the bench, but stat ing 1t was plain to him his duties toward the state were now In diff ferent direction and he must turn his talents where they will best serve the state. The resignation was announced to take effect at once. The announcement was no surprise as it was generally known among the friends of Chief Justice Hill that he was to accept the posi- ton rendered him.
 Governor Donaghey was inn mediately notified and stated that he would appoint Associate Justice E. A. McCulloch, who resigned his position immediately after the resignation of Chief Justice Hill, to fill the vacancy. Sam Frauen- thai of Conway will be appointed associate justice to fill the vacancy on the supreme bench.
 Governor Donaghey will proba- ply call special election to allow the people to vote on chief and associate justice to fill the vacan- cies.

 Chief Counsel Hill will open offices immediately in rooms ad- joining the Arkansas railroad com mission .and James H. Harrod and w. F. Kirby, his assistants, will have desks in an adjoining room. The special counsel will tomorrow consult with the members of the Arkansas railroad commission and promin mt shippers and the states side of the tariff war will be on in earnest.
