WRESTLING NOTES.

The winner of the big wrestling match
in which Stanislaus Zbyszko, the Pole.
and Giovanni Raicevich, the champion
of Italy, will be the principals, is now
assured of a meeting with Frank Gotch
for the worlds championship. The Ita!-
ian and the Pole are to come together
in Madison Square Garden on Christmas
night, and Gotch sent a telegram, Mon
day. to a representative in New York
saying he would be ready to meet the
winner by the latter part of January.
Stories TO the effect that Gotch is going
to retire are evidently manufactured by
enemies of the worlds champion, as he
says he intends to keep In the game as
long as he can hold his own. The fac-
that he is willing to sign Immediately to
meet the winner of Christmas nights
bout proves conclusively that Getch Is
not picking out easy marks.

Germany's Love
For Turkey Shown.

London. Dec. pa Sofia dispatch to
the Times says a special train con-
Veying war material from Germany
has passed Zibeftche, on the Turco-
Servian frontier on its way TO Salon
Xxi. Another train similarly loaded is
reported to be following The greatest
secrecy is being observed. The CORE
spondent adds that the Turkish gov
eminent has conveyed its thanks to
the German Emperor. through the am
bassador, for this convincing proof of
German friendship.
No news reached here from Tripoli,
today According % a dispatch from
Rome it is believed there that Tur-
key is about to make peace proposals.
The British foreign office has issued
a statement that Turkey was inform
ed in 1904 that Soltum, in Baroa, the
eastern division of Tripoli was in
cluded in Egyptian territory and that
its occupation by Egyptian troops now
is a mere formality. 1t is believed,
however that Turkey never formally
admitted this view.

negotiations of the present confer

negotiations of the present confer
ence.
Much comment has been aroused by
the prominence of persons of British
nationality, both officials and others
in connection with the conference and
the journey from Pekin to the south
of 1ang-Shao-Yi. Both at Shanghai
and at Hankow the British consuls,
acting presumably under instructions
from higher quarters. met the boat
on which Tang Shao-Yi was travelling
down the Yangtse. The British con-
sui here took a leading part in his
reception and persuaded him to take
up his residence in his private house.
The British authorities are also
providing a guard for the house in
which Tang Shao-Yi is residing and
are assuming the responsibility for all
the arrangements made for him dur
ing his stay. Tang Shao-Yi's host sees
all visitors calling at the house and
acts as Q censor on all communica-
tons sent to or issued by Tang Shao-
VI.
The leaders of the revolutionary
party express much chagrin at Tang
shao-Yss refusal TO accept the hos
pitality which had been provided for
him on neutral ground.
The date of the next session of the
peace conference is quite uncertain.
pr. WI Ting Fang's association as
serts that the revolutionary leader
will decline to attend any further
meeting of the conference until
Yuan-Shi-Kai has withdrawn all the
imperial government forces behind the
points they occupied at the time the
armistice was first announced.
A significant move mas been taken
by Yuan Shi-Kai, who has authorized
DR.. WI Ting Fang 10 use his (the
premier's) name in his kilograms, SO
that he will be able to utilize the tel
egraph wires which are now in impe-
rial hands, while Yuan-Shi-Kai Will
use DR.. WI Ting Fangs name in or
der to obtain communication over the
wires in republican hands.
