Knockout Brown
 After Ad WoIgast
Wants to Bet $1O,000 That He Gan Knock Champion
 Out

If there is anything in persistency- and the proverb book says there is then Ad Wolgast will surely have to fight Knockout Brown or the dope is all askew.
 Despite the fact that Wolgast agreed to fight Welsh in Los Angeles on Thanksgiving Day, Danny Morgan, manager of Brown, has not stopped hustling to get the champion to give Brown another battle. Morgan fig- ures that as there will be a five-month intermission between now and the Welsh affair, the time is long enough for the champion to give Brown a fight. And to make it worth the champions while, Morgan announced yesterday that he will bet Wolgast $10, 900 that Brown beats him in ten- round affair to be held in New York.
 To go further, Morgan said that if Wolgast will give him fair odds, he will bet $10,000 that Brown knocks him out before ten rounds are over. To convince the champion that he means what he says, Morgan intends to let his $1,000 forfeit stay up awaiting the pleasure of the champion.
 Wolgast has left Los Angeles on his way to Cadillac, Mich, and from there intends to hit straight for New York.

Promoter McCarey Says Gam bling Hurts Fighting Game
 in California

Los Angeles, Cal, July 13.-Tom McCarey, who is to stage the Vol gast-Welch fight here this fall, has announced that he will forbid the posting of s10,000 side bet between the fighters.
 McCarey says that he will do all he can to prevent the big gambling that is hurting the fighting game in this state, and that the prohibition of the wager between the boxers in the title bout is his first step. '.I can't see that the bet would be different from ordinary gambling, and I will not aI- ow it," said the promoter to-day.

Owner Murphy of New Britain didn lose any time in breaking into tht Protest league. He'll have a fa' chance of winning a protest on ar The crowd thought Ivor swung at ball, which would have been a thirc strike, but the umpire said Ivor didn't The next ball was swatted for the single that won the game. When il comes to a decision on the bases ol on balls and strikes the umpire vii always be upheld when it is a ques- tion of his Judgment against that ol somebody else. If there was any question of the interpretation of the rules in this case, which there isn't the protest might have leg to stand on.
 Jack Hoey will probably go to Wa terbury in a few days. He has never been satisfied in New Britain, and hasn't been able to hit there. The account of his poor showing and think Steamer Flanagan is the better man of the two. So the chances are that Owner Murphy will sell Hoey to Wa terbury. New Britain will have a good outfield in Ryan, Waterman and Flanagan.
 
 New Britain has decided to take Pitcher Lower from Waterbury. Ac- cording to the terms of the deal by which Reggie Brown went to Water bury, New Britain was to have the pick of any player on the Brass City club.
 Dan ONeil went to New York last night to see Owner Barney Dreyfuss of the Pittsburg Pirates. Dan expects to sell Pitcher Brown to Pfttsburg at the close of the season and he also wants to get Southpaw Al Haynes from Pittsburg. Haynes was farmed to New Britain last season, but Pitts burg has him on the bench this year.
 The Mechanics are playing the stead lest ball of any club in the league. Their fielding is airtight and their hitting has been hard and timely
 Lou Litschi came through with a home run and a single. If he had that New Britain short field to play on three days a week, Litschi would lead the league in home runs.
 Skipper Eley still feels wobbly from that blow he got in Springfield, Tues day, when a throw from Catcher Ball to catch Eaey at third base, struck the outfielder in the head. Meanwhile Chief Snyder goes on banging out the hits. He got one yesterday.
 '"This is the first time I've ever been on a winning team," says Dixie Walker, "and now my arm is sore. When I was with Danville, Bingham ton and other tanenders I never had a pain in my arm. It's just my luck when have a good team behind me to have something like this happen. But I'll go right on taking my turn in the box and perhaps the soreness will work out.''

COTTON MARKET
CLOSES QUIET
BY Associated Press.

New York. Aug. 25.-The cotton market
opened firm at an advance of "A points on
August and of 9Q12 points on other
ports that the Liverpool strike had been
settled and bullish private crop accounts
August was relatively firm as the result
Of little buying by scattered shorts, but
the advance was checked by realizing at
1878, and later months eased off a few
points from the best during the early
trading under Southern selling, realizing
by recent local buyers and some pressure
which have been encouraged by reports
OF further rains in the southwest and
prospects for showers again today The
market during the middle of the morning
was nervous and unsettled with new crop
months about TO points net higher.
Memphis advices said that details of
the National Ginners' report making the
average conditions OF the crop 76 per
end of July, showed a big deterioration
in nearly all states. This was followed
By frmer market late in the forenoon
Prices at midday were about Is to Is
August was bid up to 1888 or IS points
net higher by scattering shorts IT was
reported that special train was being
run to New Orleans carrying cotton there
Tor delivery on August contracts. While
It was not generally supposed that the
short interest in the local market was a
large one, the bulls seemed to have the
spot month in control Spot nominal
The upward movement which started
Just before midday carried August con-
tracts up to 1906 or 81 points net higher
and later months to a net advance Of
about % to, 2s points. Realizing was
from these prices during the middle of
the afternoon, but there was a Continued
nervous demand from shorts and the bulls
seemed to be In control Of August.
Spots closed quiet, 45 points higher;

While we all know that the price of
any commodity is necessarily regulated
by the law Of supply and demand, this
alone is not the only factor. Second
but not least is the question of proper
distribution, and an up-to-date and
standard pack.
While 1t is no easy matter TO pro-
duce figures that would apply to all
conditions, yet these figures and state
ments are based on actual experience
and will be a valuable guide to the
prospective settler.
In fact they may sound discouraging.
when compared with the glorious re-
ports Of some Of the land companies.
yet upon careful study they will find
that, notwithstanding these conserva-
tive figures, there is no state in the
union that can produce as much, or
anywhere near, the net returns that
can be made on any one given acre of
good land in this state Therefore,
II is not necessary to make any mis-
representations. The facts are suffi-
ctent to insure any man willing TO
work with a sufficient amount Of capt.
tai to uphold him until he can realize.
