RAIN INTERRUPTS
/. QUAKER CITY MILL
Langford and Kaufman Musi
Wait a Day to Settle Their
Little Differences
ASSOCIATED Press)

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 10.-The six
round bout between Sam Langford and
Al Kaufman scheduled for tonight has
been postponed until tomorrow night
on account of rain.
L-ngford and Kaufman are in hne
condition for their bout at the National
league baseball park. Kaufman mas
been in training at Island Heights, n.
j., while Langford put on the finishing
touches at Merchantville, N. j.
AS both men desire to meet the
worlds champion. they have declared
they both are anxious to make good
showing tomorrow. They feel that the
one that gets the better of 1t in TINS
encounter will have first claim for
fight with Johnson.
Kaufman will enter the ring about
forty pounds heavier than Langtord,
but the latter hopes to more than even
up matters with speed and skill, There
is no general betting on the bout in
this city, as under the Pennsylvania
laws no decision can be given.
The men will enter the ring as near
10 o'clock as possible. There will be
two preliminary bouts. In case of more
rain the bout will again be postponed.
The ring will be erected at the home
plate and will be put up Immediately
after tomorrow's st. uis-Philadelphia
game.
Although very little interest has been
manifested in the bout here, the pro-
moter looks for a big crowd. H. C..
Crowhurst will be the referee.

S COLD BELT IS
LOCATED BY BELL HOP
MiddIeWeight Champs Property
Found in Storeroom at
ST. Francis Hotel

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 1O-The
gold belt studded with diamonds, that
Stanley Ketchel thought some light
fingered chap had taken a fancy to
last January has been found. A bell-
hop at the st. Francis hotel proved
to be n better seluth than all the de-
tectives engaged by Gus Hartman. In
an attempt to tidy things trlfle in
the storage room of the big hotel, the
bell-boy ran across a weather-bea
case which was found to contain the
championship belt that Ketchel priced
so highly. AS soon as the discovery
was made, a telegram was sent to the
champion at his training quarters at
New Drop, advising him of the find.
Two years ago at an elaborate BAN
quet Promoters Luke Marisch and
Carlo Lercari presented Ketchel with
the old Maynard championship belt,
which had been made over by a gold
smith and in which several diamonds
and precious stones had been set. When
the Michigan lad was hitting the high
places last January he mislaid the
belt and instructed his attorney to put
the entire detective force on the case.
No trace of it could be found and
everybody with the exception of the
owner, forgot that there was such
thing in existence until the beii-boy
made his discovery.

.LANGFORD WILL TEAR IN
TO WIN FROM KAUFMAN
Negro Figures Quick Victory Over
Al Will Land a Match
with Johnson

PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 1O.--When
Al Kaufman and Sam Langford meet
here tomorrow night in their six-round
no-decision bout Langford is planning
to rush Kaufman from the tap of the
bell in an effort to prove to critics that
he is entitled to a match with Jack
Johnson.
Langford's hackers have decided to
wait until after this fight before put
ting up the $4,000 for d fight to bind
the match with Johnson. If Bill Lang,
the Australian heavyweight cham
pion, should earn decision over
middleweight ch a mpion Stanley
Ketchel next Tuesday, the Australian
will be entitled to a match with the
winner of the Kaufman-Langford go,
and the victor in turn will have a
conceded right to challenge Johnson.
Langford is confident and considers
the match as a stepping stone Kauf-
man, who is believed to be the best
white heavyweight fighter now before
the public, stayed ten rounds with
Johnson on the coast last September
and helped to train the champion for
his fight with Jeffries.

Sunday evening State Senator Got
teriil. of Seattle. sroke on the local
option question to fine audience at
Odd Fellows' hall. Preceding his
address number of familiar HYMNS
were sung by large choir comprising
nearly all the singers in town. The
speaker was introduced by Senator
Blair, who has been his colleague in
the legislative sessions of the past
four years.
Senator Cotterill said that although
be had been resident of this state
for twenty-sIx years he had never be-
fore visited this county. He greatly
enjoyed the trip over from Anacortes
in Mr.. Harpst's launch and was de.
lighted not only with the scenic
beauties of the islands but with FRI
day Harbor, which he considered one
OF the prettiest towns he had ever Wis
tied, and he has travelled very exten
sively in Europe as we'll as in this
country. He has for many years been
prominent worker in the temper
ance cause and is regarded as one of
the most effective speakers enlisted in
the local option movement. His ad
dress Sunday evening was clear. calm,
Econsiderate and convincing. entirely
free from vituperation and replete
| with facts and figures that appealed
strongly to the sober common sense
of people desirous of forming a Just
! judgment upon the question at issue.
He dwelt at considerable length upon
the effects upon legitimate business
of the abolition of saloons, showing
that beneficial results Invariably fol-
low. Numerous examples were cited
IN this state, Oklahoma. Kansas and
elsewhere in support of his state
ments. He'contended that the licen-
sing Of saloons by law does not make
the saloon business respectable or
even legitimate, but that such licen-
ses are simply penalties which the Law
enforces In advance, against persons
who engage in kind of business gen
orally recognized as q menace to soci-
ETY..
At the conclusion OF his address
many pressed forward to shake hands
with him and express their apprecia
tion of what he said and their thanks
for his coming. He was the guest Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Newhall while here.
He left early Tuesday morning for a.
few hours visit with his old friend
Robert Moran, at Rosario, whose
roof, he said. was the first to shelter
him when hs came to this state.
