from Frank H. Gaines, defeating the
Omaha veteran eleven up and ten to
play. Sheehan's game Saturday was
brilliant aad he had no trouble defeat

Legg showed tse best form Saturday
that he has displayed this week. His
long game left little to be desired, and
the accuracy in his work on the green's
was an important feature of his play.
Immediately after the championship

in the first half of the final round for
the consolation cup.

LABOR DAY FIGHTS
ARE CALLED OFF

New York Aug 22-The Labor day
boxing programme is in doubt The
original programme was:
Tommy Burns VS.. Sam Langford.
Battling Nelson VS.. Ad, wolgast,
Stanley Ketchel VS.. Harry Lewis.
1t has begun to look as though there
will not be a big fight of Importance
in this country next month The Nell
son Wolgast negotiations fell through
and another attempt was made to ar
range tch between Champion
Wolgast and Packy Mcfarland. Packy
wants to meet Woleeeee? v -GWYFWY
wants to meet Wolgast before he re-
turns to England but the Milwaukee
boy wants so much money thae man
ayers cannoe consider his terms.
A tentative arrangement was enter
ed into for the men to engage in COM
bat before the New Orleans Athletic
club for a $4,000 purse in twenty
round bout but the Louisiana authori-
ties are following the lead of the Cali
fornians in the matter of pugilism
now. Fearing that it will hurt the
chances of the Crescent City for Sc
curing the Panama canal exposition,
the southern authorities are barring
prize fights.

OBSCURE CANA
NOW IN DEMAND

New York, Aug. 22.-Gama, the East
Indian wrestler, seems to be the latest
sensation in England in the mat game.
The big man from the orient had a
hard time getting a match until DR..
b. f. Roller, the american, happened
along when a match was made, and
Cana won two straight falls in short
order. AS a result of his easy victory,
Cana has been in demand now.
Jack Curley, who manages Roller,
talks about bringing him to this coun-
try to meet the best of the heavy
weights here, also Frank Gotch. Zyb-
czbo was brought over for the express
purpose of meeting Frank Gotch and
he was toured around the country for
keeps, only to be easy prey to Gotch
when they finally met.
A match on the other side between
Cana and the Pole would be the
proper thing, as to get a better line
on Cana. If he can defeat Zybszko
in as fast time as he defeated Roller,
then there would be no doubt about
his real ability as a wrestler and
worthy opponent for Gotch. 1t would
be good business Judgment for Cana to
demonstrate to the people here, before
leaving Europe, that he is the real
goods. A match that would attract
the greatest interest wiuld be one be-
ween Gotch and George Hacken-
schmidt, the Russian lion. The latter
was defeated by Gotch at Chicago two
years ago, but only after over two
hours of wrestling, and then without a
fall, Hackenschmidt giving up the con-
test owing to his knee giving out
it seems a most difficult mat
ter to get the two men together in
another championship match.

BURNS TO Fight
FOR WORLDS TITLE

London. Aug. 22.-Hugh d. McIn-
tosh, the Australian sporting pro-
moter, is some better. Mac has given
the old country shake-up that they
have not realized the full significance
of vet. He has made all arrangements
for one of the biggest boxing cam
paigns that this land has ever wit
messed. Before coming to London Mac
had signed up Tommy Burns and Sam
Langford to fight twenty rounds under
his management for the light heavy
weight championship of the world
and the go will take place in London
during next September.
Mcintosh secured the Holland park
skating rink. for the affair and will
erect an arena to seat over 5000 peo-
pie. He has taken a lease on the rink
and will run monthly shows. Burns
and Langford will fight for a percent
age of the receipts. Mcintosh giving
them a guarantee. Eugene Corris has
been retained to referee all the bat
ties. The next big one to follow the
Burns2L angford fight will be Jack
johnson against the winner. McIn-
tosh having the black champion under
contract for three battles. Mcintosh
ii to fight the best three men that
Mac can put against him.
This is not all that Mcintosh did
during his whirlwind trip. He is after
Bombardier Wells. the new English
heavyweight, and will offer him sum
for four fights that Wells could not
get from any other source. If he
secures Wells, Mcintosh will have a
corner in the best heavyweights In
the world.

Since the inception Of the scheme.
which has the warmest support of
such English sportsmen as the earl of
Lonsdale, Sir Claude Champion de
Admiral Victor Montague,

teur Boxing association; William Will,
Eugene Cook, and A. F. Bettison, man
aser of the National Sporting club of
London, 1t has received f1attering en-
comiums from sportsmen all over the
world. ". A. Montague has this to
say in favor of the new scheme:
1T goes without saying that all
competitions In which foreigners COM
pete, in whatever country, must be
run under stringent rules applicable
to all alike. / should therefore advise
that all competitors should be obliged
to sign an agreement to box under
the established rules before they en-
ter the ring. 1t is also necessary when
looking at it in another aspect. AS

fight FANS LOST
CHANCE AT RENO

New York, Aug. Advocates of
the proposed international board of
control to regulate boxing throughout
the world lost a fine chance to get the
sentiment of many of the prominent
men identified with the sport with the
view of forming an organization when
they failed to be present at the John
SON Jeffries fight on July A. No battle
in the history of the prize ring ever
drew such an attendance as was seen
in the arena ait Reno, and 1t was Of
such q character as would have helped
to advance the interests OF the new
scheme.
william viii Of London, the orig
inator of the proposed change of box
ing affairs, and number of English
sportsmen intended to come over to
see the fight, and incidentally to OBJ
tain the views Of men prominent in
the game, and to assist in organizing
q board of control When the battle
ground, however, was transferred from
San Francisco to Reno and the subse-
quent doubts arose as to whether the
big pugilists would ever meet. the
Londoners Cancelled all their engage
ments In this country
RI boxing we're placed under the
management of d. board of control 1t
Ii believed that 1t would do away with
much OF the pickering between the
promoter and the boxer, and In lecid-'
ing arbitrarily the weights at which
boxers must defend their titles, and
not to allow man to set weight
limit to suit himself 1t is suggested
that the board shall consist of two
representatives each from England.

JOHNSON WILLING
TO MEET PERSON

Ole johnson, the st. Paul wrestler,
who is in the city and who has been
challenged by Chris Person, the
Houghton, Mich, heavyweight, has
concluded to accept the challenge. Ne
gotiations are now under way and it
is believed that the match will be
pulled off within the next fortnight
Johnson is eager to take someone on
and has signified his willingness to
Person.
Person has a wide reputation and
has pulled off many matches in Du-
luth, in which he has thrown all of
his opponents. 1t is said in sporting
circles in that city that 1t is like lead
ing lamb to slaughter to bring up
any ambitious wrestler against him.
The Swedish lad, Johnson, is also a
husky one and the local sport fans
who have seen him agree that it
would be a difficult matter for Person
or anyone else to throw him.

Gotch to Continue.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 22.-The Oft
repeated statement that Frank Go:ch,
the worlds champion heavyweight
wrestler, has retired, is offset by the
fact that the title holder does not in
tend to retire from the ma; game for
some time to come. This is evident,
judging from the subs an 20 contained
in letter Gotch recently wrote to 81
local sporting authority. In ii the
champion says he intends only 70 take
q much needed rest iiotca declares
that just as long as he retains mis-
youth and strength he intends to
wrestle. However, he did not state
definitely what his present plans are.

matters are now, any boxer may study
a style of his owns liking and become
proficient in it's methods, and find
when he put on his gloves in a foreign
country his tactics do not conform with
the rules in vogue. Half the cautions
given by the referees would be UNI
necessary, and it would entirely do
away with any excuse that favor or
affection has ruled decision.
Again, am personally adverse to
any competition lasting more than f1f-
teen rounds. We do not want endur-
ance to be the main test of the boxers
capabilities. Surely during fifteen
three minute rounds there is ample
time to score on points, or for one or
the other to bring matters to an issue,
but as matters are now the first few
rounds are either devoted to sparring
or to finding out weak points, and If
both stand up for twenty rounds, in
nine cases out of ten the last five
rounds or so may be boxed by two ex-
hausted men.

81 have not seen the man yet who

even nature, and If one is better than
the other it's really over before fifteen
rounds have gone through at any time.
My other opinion is that /, for one,
depreciate the adsurdities of the high
figures demanded to bring two men to-
gether, and in this / cannot help say
ing that our good friends across the

plenty of good men who are kept out

Gate money and the interests of
'runners-up' are one thing. but sport
in its true form is not compatible with
the overwhelming instinct for money
and the ridiculous prices that the pub
lie is called upon to pay for seats in
consequence. There are exceptions,
but l have often seen as good a dis
play of boxing and fighting gone
through by lesser tso-called stars that
are content with moderate stakes and
that often give us a better run for
