%T~HE Eastern debut OF "one-
Round Hogan tonight, when
he meets Knockout" Brown at
the Madison A. c.. OF New York, has
fght-followers on edge. The consensus
OF opinion is that Brown ought to beat
his "one-Round' friend III a hard
fight with no new knockout for any
body's record-book. Both boys started
cut much alike In the matter OF knock
outs. Brown has stopped since he
struck the good boys, and the same
holds for Hogan, who ran up against
Al snag IN frankie Burns, to whom he
lost the decision. Both boys are tough
lighters. On paper the bout should be
d good one, though there Is a faint feel
ing that one-Round" Hogan may not
be able TO cope with Brown at all, on
account of his lack OF experience, as
compared to "Knockout's," and the lat
ter's awkward right foot out" style.

There Is a story going the rounds
that Dick Curley would not allow
Young Wagner to fight at the Olympic
Club next week with Buddy Faulkes,
and that he would appear at Me-
Gnikan's instead. It Is said that Dick
Ctsiey signed papers yesterday In New
York, but the Olympic people have
been In touch with Curiey, who said
Wagner would fight at the Olympic
Club, and that he only signed the
papers to get clear of the representa-
rive Of the other big fight club here
abouts. I could not verify this story
Today, but II II is true, some censure
is due those who are trying to steal
that night. When we get the facts alb
solutsly correct, II anybody is liable,
he 10 going to DO shown up.

The Tommy Murphy-Pai Moore bat
tie Tor next Tuesday night at the Arm
bry Club, Of Boston, has fallen through
because the managers failed to agree
ri the Sporting Editor Of the Evening star:
wish to ask Paddy McGuigan to
keep my name out of his mouth. AT
Monday nights show McGuigan
stepped In the ring and that
u bunch OF rats from Newark were
going around telling the public that !
wal the Lewis to night Shadow Morris.
/ am telling the public that I will never
fight In his place, and every time I ever
Fought there he wanted to hand me
81 piece Of cheese for my services.
/, Will fight any boy McGuigan can
get from 1873 to 1876 pounds at any of
tie local clubs, barring nobody, but
not at his Joint. Hoping you will pub
lisii this In your paper. I remain, as
eves, f BILLY LEWIS
.
no che Sporting Editor of the Evening Star;
I would like very much to correct a
statement In the Evening STAR in
H,t,ich the Ironside Featherweights
claim a game on their court by the
score OF IL to Il. This rams was won
by the Bay Views by the scores Of 81
10 81.
This is not the first false statement
chat the Featherweights have made, for
they have made a statement that they
have never been defeated on their home
court. The Bay View juniors were the
frst to defeat them on their home
court about a month ago and they
duplicated by defeating the Feather
weights in a double-header Sunday.
Trusting that this statement will be
corrected and that credit be given to
whom credit Is due I remain,
J. HILL,
Manager Bay Views.
The Irongide Featherweights sent in
the statement we ~printed.-Ed,
