FIGHT DISPUTE
 IN MILWAUKEE

LABOR DAY MATCH CAUSE

CHICAGO, Aug. 2S.-Wili they fight in Milwaukee? It's almost as big a guess as was the San Francisco propo- sition when Jack Johnson and Jim Jeffries were arguing out in Califor- mia. writes Ed Smith.
 Since the day that Ad Wolgast and Packey Mcfarland definitely decided to box ten round engagement in the Cream City there has been nothing but friction between the fighters and Frank Malkern, Milwaukee's premier promoter.
 The wake of the negotiations is lit tered with harsh recriminations, bit terness and strife. There hasn't been a pleasant thing about the whole af- fair. And now more trouble has brck- en out because Mu1kern insists that Emil Thiery, McFarland's manager, call cf the proposed match in s.. Louis Labor Day between the stock yards pet and Leo Kelly, a local light weight there.
 Mulkern phoned down the other day as soon as he heard that Packey had signed the articles for the St. Louis affair. He was peeyed so that his voice rattled harshiy over the phone.
 Jones called or several bouts for Wolgast because l asked him not to take any chances" Mulkern shouted. ''Tell Thiery that if he don't let this Kelly match go that I'll call of the match here and get somebody else to box Wolgast can get Matt Wells or Knockout Brown or somebody else who is a good card.
 Thiery didn't happen to be near al the time or there might have been a lot of trouble. He merely smiled when the message was delivered to him.
 The Kelly match will go on just the same, Mulkern notwithstanding. he said. ''Packey wants~a stiff work out before tackling Wolgast and is going 10 get it in the Kelly battle. That's all there is to if.
 ''8fulkern is having too much his own way in this matter. Jones and ! happen to be business partners as far as this one battle goes and we will stick together. Nulkern has been acting as if he didn't give a rap about anybody in Chicago and hasn't given us the slightest bit of consideration, especially about the tickets. It isn't right and we won't stand for it.
 He says Jones has ordered me to cancel this Kelly scrap. Maybe, but ] doubt it. Jones hasn't said a word to me about it and I don't think he will"
 And the friction grows. Thiery com plains that Mulkern hasn't even @ for felt up to show his Sood intentions in pulling of the scrap and that he shouldn't insist that the fighters put up anything. But the fighters did. just the same.
 There are some funny angles to the whole thing. Mulkern and Wolgast used to be pals, Frank managing Ad long before anybody had much thought of the boy becoming a cham pion. Hence there is said to be a spirit of comradeship between them that doesn't usually attach to fighter and his cast-off manager, or a man ager and his cast-off fighter, as the case may be in this instance.
 Tniery said he and Jones are stand ing in together. Jones says New York is so anxious to get the battle that he really doesn't care what AIi'- waukee does in the matter and can call it on if he wishes, although il would be the greatest disappointment in the world to the fight fans of Ibis section. I do not think it will be but would advise the fight managers and the profnoters to get together, eat a sIashing good dinner in some quiet nook and let all the friction be left behind. They are not doing the game any good with this constant rap ping and backhiting-
