It soon became evident that the main
question was whether or not the bill

The first test came on tho Root amend

WOLGAST WORRIES The FANS
All Agree that He is of a Retiring
Disposition.
PAYS NO HEED TO CHALLENGES
Nelson says He Is the Cheapest Champ
that Ever Held the TitIe-Cnrries
Several Challenges Around
TN His Pockets.

Somebody says that "Ad" wolgast is OF
a retiring disposition. IL would appear so.
lie will be so long in retiring some time
that he will forget to save the lightweight
championship.
There was sympathy for wolgast when
Il was first stated that his arm was broken
No one expected that boxer with a
broken arm would compete for the title
were II no greater title than chief Gus
todian Of the woodpile.
Subsequently wolgast boxed and did not
make much Of a showing. Then some one
began to suspect that perhaps it was not
80 much a broken bone as broken feelings
which kept Wolgast in retirement.
Now he has made a match out in Cali
fornia with a selling platter. George Mem
sic, after making all sorts OF promises that
the moment he was fit for work he would
meet Moran and four or five other claim
ants to the supremacy which he carries
with him when he buys a railroad ticket
from one town to another.
That doesn't seem so encouraging as Il
might and some people cannot be blamed
II they believe that Wolgast is doing his
best to try to hang to a little distinction
which he feels in his own bones will be
missing IL he meets first class claimant
for the lightweight title.
Battling Nelson says Wolgast is the
cheapest champion who ever held the light
weight title The "battler" does a great
deal Of gossipping with his neighbors, but
his statement seems to have met with re-
spouse here and there.
Charley Harvey is growing callous spots
on his fingers writing to wolgast for a
match with Moran.

he will also be after one

Another English youth, woh can box not
a little, will be in the United States
shortly. Digger Stanley is to arrive next

States will be with Frankie" Burns.
They are to meet in the National club in
New York City. If Stanley beats Burns he
will surely know that he has the better of
live wire, and there are others than Burns
Not So BAD.
A Baltimore base ball critic says he
awaits the meeting OF the National com
mission in Cincinnati with GREATNESS sus-
pense,"
Don't do it. In addition to the possibility
OF never being able to catch your breath
again for year or two, there is no reason
to fret
When so many of the clubs in the East
ern league and the American association
arc so closely allied to so many clubs in
the major leagues there is really very little
chance that any Gordian knot will be sew
cred this year or next.
