President Taft sent to congress a
special message urging the fortifica-
tion of the Panama canal.
The president recommends that an
appropriation of $5,OO0,0O0, to start
the work on the proposed defenses, be
made at the present session OF con-
gress.
The president forwarded with the
message the report of the special army
and navy board, recommending the
lortificatiOn of the canal.
The canal when completed" says
the president in his message, will af-
| ford the only convenient route for wa
| ter communication between our Allan
| cic and Pacific coasts, and virtually
| will be a part Of the coast line of the
| Uuited States. Its assured possession
and control will contribute to our
peace, safety and prosperity as a ma
tiOn.
I'm my judgment it is the right and
the duty of the United States to for

work that will bear so vital a re alton

That 2. T. Powers will have the Job
of his life trying to sign riders for a
six-day race next year is a foregone
conclusion. Most of the cyclists after
receiving their share of the "swag'
from Promoter Powers are of the
opinion that they were not treated
fairly. They had been dreaming of far
bigger mounts coming their way as
the result of the new percentage basis
upon which the receipts were to be
divided, and there was keen disap-
pointment when the checks were
handed out showing amounts far below
the figures they had expected. Jackie
Clarke and Joe Fogler divided $685.,
and openly declared that they had been
roughly dealt with all the way around
Kramer and Moran, In addition 10
their bonus, received about $2as apiece
Freddy Hill and John Bedell we're tbs
hardest hit. They recsived only s4S
apiece for finishing eighth.
Frank Kramer was paid $500 a day
for every day he rode, while the rest
of the squad figured anywhere from
$166 down to s75 q day per man. Jackie
Clarke had a ve-y good contract, draw
ing 81 200 as q bonus. That part OF it
war all right. but the riders figured
on a far bigger amount to be received
on the percentage basis than thoHe
given above. The consensus OF opinion
was that the attendance vas the
largest that evsr saw a race. and well
over 70, 900.

Former Has First Two Rounds,
but Last Pair Are
Even.

Irish Mahon shaded Banty Lewis
in the main event at the Central In
stitute last night. Mahon's work in the
first two rounds, which he won, earned
him the victory. In the final two,
Banty showed something Of the class
that has made him prominent here as
well as abroad, but this return to form
came too late to win him the bout.
In the initial session Lewis opened
hostilities with light left jabs and they
exchanged body punches. Both lads
were applauded for their clever dodg-
ing. Mahon sent a light tap to jaw and
both clinched. Banty hooked a neat
one to the body. They clinched and
did some infighting. on the break
away, they exchanged lunches to face.
The round ended about even.
Mahon opened the second round with
a left to the nose. Lewis missing a
left to the face. Lewis backed up and
in turn received a hard one m the
mouth.
They were boxing fast. Mahon see
ing an opening caught Banty on the
jaw, sending him to his knees. Banty
was up before the count of five, how
ever, but seemed to be in a dazed con-
dItion. At the bell Mahon sent a left
TO body. 1t was Mahon's round.
Both performed cleverly in the third
round, exchanging body and jaw taps.
Lewis made Mahon stick in a corner,
but Irish protected himself. Lewis
seemed to be the aggressor by a shade,
missing a left, but hooking a light right
to ribs. The round finished with each
ready to hit.
Rushing out to start the final inning
both clinched. Lewis tried q left for
the face" but missed. Mahon quickly
returned a fast one to jaw, Lewis's face
meeting "Irish's'' glove %squarely,
At the bell Lewis missed a left to
jaw. Irish seemed to be rather tired
at the end, and il the bout had gone a
round or two more it was probable that
