ATTELL MAY HAVE
TO QUIT FIGHTING

New York. Juno 3.-Abe Attelrs
fighting days are said to be over. The
remarkable featherweight champion of
America has been compelled to cancel
his bout with K. o. Brown at the Ma
toinal Sporting Club next week be-
cause of another injury to his left
| shoulder. While boxing in private
with Jack Goodman a t Johnson,s road
house Thursday afternoon, Attell's left
arm suddenly snapped above the elbow
and hung limp nc his side.
ITS all up with me. Jack!" cried
Attell. THE Same old trouble has
come back. and can't go on with the
Brown bout" So Attell sent word to
Tom o'Rourke to call the match Off.
Last winter Attell broke his left arm
near the shoulder In a rough bout with
Tommy Kilbane. in Cleveland. His
physician told him that no could not
box for six months, but when half that
period had expired Attell took on
frankie Burns. Again he injured the
arm. and was compelled to box the last
four or five rounds with his right hand
exclusively He went hack to the shelf
after that affair. and his physician or
dered him to remain out of the ring for
year. Attell went into vaudeville
with q monologue stunt, and thrived
for several weeks. But with the an
preach of summer he was tempted to
return to the boxing gamc. as tho M
tional Sporting Club offered him n big
guarantee 70 put the gloves on WITH
Brown. Attell saw Brown beat Tommy
Murphy last week, and promptly de-
clarcd that no could beat X o. with
little or no trouble Then ho began
active training. and had made encour-
aging progress. when, for the third
time, his valuable left was rendered
useless.
AttelI said yesterday that he would
not DO ablo to resume work until next
fall, but expert trainers and handlers
of pugilists declared that tho little
champlon-ono OF tho greatest boxers
the world has ever scen-had reached
tho end Of his career. Attell had
planned to visit England after the
Brown bout to box Jem Drlscoll for
the worlds title. but this will he i'm
possible. Meanwhile. Joe Costcr of
Brooklyn, who resembles Atteli in
style and lighting ability has laid
claim TO tho American feathcrweight
title Coster recently made a show OF
Frankie Conley in twenty-round
bout at New Orleans. and when he ar
rived here with his manager Jimmy
Johnston. the other day. he challenged
Attell. With the latter apparently out
of the game for good, Coster is generally
recognized rs the leading American
featherweight. and he stands rendy 10

natural resources of the country. Is
the decision of Judge Wolverton Of
the federal court IT. Oregon that the
Southern Pacific and the Oregon &
California Railroad companies must
forfeit to the United States govern
ment about 100000 acres Of land
which is valued at from $40 000. 900 to
SIS 900.
"Interperpretating the act Of cong
ress granting this land as an aid to
railroad construction, court holds that
congr ess intended this land should
be sold to bona fide settlers In tracts
not greater than 100 acres to one In
dividual and at a price not exceed
Ing $3.50 per acre.
This decision seems to bear direct
ly on the situation in California
where the Southern Pacific and ita
allies hold grant property they have
appraised at $5O.OOO.OOO but which
probably will be worth several times
that amount with its minerals devel
oped. As was the case In Oregon
much Of this land was granted or
the express condition that 1t was tc
be sold to bona fide settlers-a pro
vision that the company has contemp
uously ignored.
III Its bad faith In one state Is
cause for the great forfeiture order
ed by Judge Wolverton the way ough
to be much cleared for the depart
Eent of justice to prosecute speedy
decision In the California cases. The
apparent situation may have been
because he was waiting for ruling
in the Oregon case. In any event the
people Of California will expect now
to see some motions on his part like
a real prosecution.
