The Virginia enterprise., 1913-12-26

Reports from Australia have it that
Pal Brown lost his recently won
championship of Australia to Herb
Mccoy after twenty rounds Of one of
the fiercest battles that has ever
been witnessed in the Antipodes.
When it. is learned that McCay
weighs in the neighborhood of 40
pounds and is considered the welter-
weight champion of the Never Never
land the showing of Brown against
his big opponent can be taken as a
boost for the youngster by the hun
dreds of friends Of the Hibbing boy.
Along with the news of the battle
comes the information that Brown is
willing to take on Matt Wells at 14O
pounds, as it is stated that the for
mer lightweight champion of Eng
land cannot make a lesser weight.
Brown has declared his willingness
to battle the one-time conqueror of
Freddy Welch at any weight the lat
ter may nominate.
There has been some talk of Brown
being unable to make weight for the
lightweight limit. To this rumor the
Hibbing boy has written to friend
that he can make 1873 easily, but that
he will concede two pounds to the
champion, Willie Richie, in an en-
deavor to get on with the title holder
According to the news that comes
across the Pacific, Pal has at least
two more matches in prospect before
he leaves for home.
1t is stated that Brown will have
a return battle with Hughie Mehegan
and that he will also box Matt Wells
Both Of these boys outweigh the
Hibbing boy considerable poundage
and the victory over Mehegan is
therefore all the more remarkable.
1t is believed hereabouts that with
the return of Brown he will be line
for bout with one of the leading
lightweights of this country.
Tommy Andrews of Milwaukee, one
of the leading sport writer's of the
country as we'll as the matchmaker
for one of the big Milwaukee clubs
has been making some of the matches
for Brown, and with the landing OF
the Hibbing boy, Andrews will prob
ably start negotiations for a series
of bouts with the leading lightweight
contenders.
Fans in this section Of the country
hope to get look at Brown in ac'
ton. Sig Abrams of the Twir
Ports club declares he has the prom
Use of Pal for a bout in this section
of the country, and it is not unlikely
that sometime within the next month
or two that Brown will show across
the way.
Following is the account of thu
battle with Mccoy:
"In presence of 10000 spectators
at the stadium tonight, Pal Brown o1
Minnesota and Herb Mccoy battlet
twenty furious rounds, furnishing
the most exciting contest seen here
in many long days. The strenuou!
work Of the two boys kept the spec
tators in seething storm if excite
ment every minute of the going.
"McCoy was awarded the decision
at the end of the twentieth round
and the decision was heartily cheeret
by large majority of the spectators
He had twelve rounds cleanly in hi!
favor, and throughout the match
handed Brown a lot of very heav!
punishment. Brown stood up vel
under the mauling administered, an,
was dangerous at every stage of tn
game. The boys found themselve
within an ounce of each other in tn
matter of weight when they stepped
on the SCALE"

FOREIGN BUTTER
TO Be SOLD HERE
Product From Siberia, Austral-
ia and Canada Awaits Pass
age of Tariff Bill.

New York, Sept. 13.-Butter from
Siberia, Australia and Canada is here
in bond waiting to make its debut
into the American market along with
Argentina beef, which is soon ex-
pected to the extent of 100000 pounds
The Siberian product, pronounced by
some experts as good as the best do
mestic butter, is stored in warehouses
waiting passage of the tariff bill which
would reduce the present tariff of six
and one-half cents to two and one-haIf.
1t is expected this butter will reach
dealers at five cents under the pre-
vailing prices for similar grade from
domestic dairies. Smaller quantities
of Australian and Canadian butter are
waiting the opening Of the gate of the
American market
The first commercial shipment of
Argentina beef, consisting of 1000
quarters, arrived today on a steamship
from Buenos Aires. On account of the
high price of domestic beef importers
expect to make a good profit.
