 Burns is mt over cnlhuSed he cause of LcsfHr's showing. and in that he is using good judgment. Burns is no sloach f trainer, and doesn't want to have Lester meet champions until he is it. shape

 NEW YORK, Jan [. Freddy Welsh, ,he liEhtvoieh, champion Cf England, who re,,ulg defeated Jcm Drisco!l, is planning an3'h visit to the United Sra.e-. Welsh has beaten all the men iu lis ,lass at home and sighs for Dew worlds 10 conquer.
 "I have figured out pretty close ly just what my chances ,f getting hold of the worlds championship are" said Welsh il am interview, T honestly believe that they afc better than those of >ly other fight r of class who has invaded America for d long time. Ntu see. have T big adyantaae iu having fought my way up iii America. l made a Trca z CT reputation there than ever did before I left home. ' takes fel- lew some time To get onto the Yam kee tricks, their different ways Cf handling fights. ! mean. as regarding the promoters. aud. Of course. h. different styles of toEiug in vogue among their men.
 Knows American Game.
 We have managed to graf the English now. but erln couple of years ago there was q marked dif- ference in the way thCv performed. And I think I can lay claim {. know ing all the angl in American sporting circles l fought from one end of the country 10 The other. and when l 20 there again i won't be as q stranger. First or all would like to sign up with Wolgast. Ii seems to me that as the rccoenized champion f England and holder of Lord Lonsdale's lclt. : am surely entitled 10 au early chauae al him. know something of him. to, having watched him fight q few times. and though he was not q champion th,n, a man doesn't change such a lot that you cant get a line on his moves fr~m earlier impressions.
 Believes WoIeast Easy.
 "l honestly believe that Wolgast would be easier for me 70 whip than Driscoll was, and everybody knows that Jen didn't give me much trouble. He has q puzzling way of covering up that fools a good many cf his oppon nts, but I think can get through the myst cry of his defense He is tough, strong and ready to mix a all times. Such was the case with a good many men fought, but my record shows that l held my own oil all occasions. am not undertaking Wolgast. H. is a champion sure en~ush, and the chap who beats him will have to put up q superior article of fight But he can be beaten all the same and l think l can do the trick
 Will Meet All Corners.
 If l cant get Wolgast right away, l won't refuse anything else in the line of matches that may turn up, provided that the purse is reason able and the weight conditions right but I don't intend to take on bunch of these big fellows over there who call themselves lightWeights and re- fuse to make anywhere near the proper weight. In England I nave fought at 135 pounds hecause that is the new limit laid down by cur sporting authorities for the class but l can make the American limit of 133 as well, and will do so if asked to in America.
 "Wolgast won't give away a sin gle pound over 133. He wen the title from Nelson at that figure. and l don't blame him for sticking to it. Moran fights well at that weight. too but there are lots of big chaps call ing themselves lightweights over i there who would be hard put to get under 142 pounds, ringside Packy Mcfarland is one of them. There is a fellow that l will insist on mak- ing weight if he wants a match with me. He Is bigger now than he ever was, but still travels as a genuine lightweight.
 May Sign With Moran If can't get WOlgast for my
