UNRELIABLE BOXERS
WORRY TO MANAGERS
Bat Masterson Tells the Narrowing Tale of Moss
of New Orleans, and His Own Bitter
Experience.

Here be harsh words from Bat Mas
tersOn. who. too, has suffered from the
class he speaks of. Says Bat:
Herman Moss, the New Orleans box
ing promoter, has been having a peck
Of trouble lately with the mutt fighters
and their managers.
Mr.. Moss is the manager and match
maker for the two leading boxing clubs
in the Crescent City, the Southern Ath-
Ietic, and West Side.
"A short while ago Young Erne, by
Hunkinz out Of his match with Packy
Mcfarland, after having signed articles
Of agreement. caused Mr.. Moss and his
associates to be out Of pocket some
thing like 81 80 for advertising and other
expenses incidental to the match.
ssSincs then Mr.. Moss got it again in
the managerial neck Ihls Ilme Dy
INK Russell, who, by the way, happens
to be stable mate OF Young ETne-
that IS. both are under the same man
aSement Here is what Mr.. Moss has
to say on the subject:
Stung Again.
since 7 wrote you last the ETne out
fit IN Philadelphia have succeeded IN
putting another one over on me. AS
YOU are perhaps aware. Young ETne
and INK Russell are both under the
MANAGEMENT of the same man. This
= r
Mcfarland, wrote ne a letter In which
he expressed a great deal or regret FOR
the way ETne had treated me and re-
QueSted that I give him chance 10 re-
deem himself
" His explanation Of the matter wgs
so plausible that ] decided ETne had
given him the worst OF II, as we'll as ne
had me, and was willing to let IL so
at that At the same time this man
ager requested fne to give INK Russell
a match with Dave Barry at the South
ern Athletic Club for January g. which
request T Immediately complied with.
Lookout for These.
AS soon as had the match
clinched. so far as the Barry end OF It
was concerned. I advised Mr. Manager
Of the fact, also as to terms and cOndi-
tons of the match. He Immediately To-
piled by wire saying everything was
tickets and he and Russell would leave
at once for New Orleans.
'' That was fifteen days ago and I've
heard nothing from him since. I've
sent him fifteen kilograms and six to
Russell, but have received no word from
either.
" This manager holds a. responsible
position I'm Philadelphia and has always
been looked upon as q man OF his word
but just the same. that Is the way ne
has dealt with me
d. We are doing our best down here
TO Tehabilitate boxing aud are therefore
pretty much at the mercy of con
managers and punk fighters for the
time being, but take my word for II, I'M
less all signs fail these conditions will
not last.

Herman Moss, being a thoroughly

then, he'll learn, providing he sticks to
the game long enough. BY the time

some years ago / was running a

signature.
Sullivan's Little Trick.
In due time ] received telegram
from Mr.. Spike, informing me that the
terms and conditions OF the match were
satisfactory in every particular, also
that he had signed the articles of agree
ment and had returned them 70 me in
Denver
Spike also requested me 10 stand
sponsor for his forfeit to the home
scrapper and that he would put it up
himself when he arrived I hunted up
the local man and told him that l would
be responsible far Spikes forfeit and
TO go ahead with his training. few
days later ] received another telegram
from Spike calling of the match. All
I could do then was 10 hunt up the
local man and tell him that the mdFcn
was off and pay him the forfeit Wnich
I had stood for.
THAT was ten years ago. and so far
Mr.. Spike Sullivan has failed 10 make
good that forfeit TO me.
Have Case, Spike!
Some years ago in this city Tom
sharkey brought Spike to me in the
