Secretary Bryan absolutely declined to
discuss the report. His message of last
the Huerta government should await the
delivery Of President Wilson's commune
cation before taking a position on Mr..
Lind's visit. undoubtedly reflects the at
titude of the administration.
Secretary Bryan declared he had not
received the Huerta governments decla-

well as TO Europe. Mr. Bryan explained
that the message he sent yesterday to
Mr.. OShaughnessy had been dispatched

Mr.. Lind sailed from Galveston TODAY

In some circles 1t is believed that

Is that the embargo on shipments of

effect of encouraging the enemies OF

cussed- but authoritative denial IL still

KLAUS BATTLES
NJ GOORTY FOR
MIDDLE TITLE

X HICAGO, Sept. 29.-Back in 1908,
u June 4, to be exact, Milwaukee
was alive with fight fans who
gathered to see the bringing out of a
new champion. Stanley Ketchel, who
won a ten round battle from Billy
Papke by a big margin. Tonight in
that same city another gathering Of
fight fans viii witness Frank Klaus
of Pittsburg and Eddie McGoorty go
ten rounds
The clash won't mean the bringing
out of a new champion, but mighty
near such a thing, for though Jack
Dillon and Jimmy Clabby have a right
to dispute any one claiming such
honors, McGoorty and Klaus to-day
hold the highest rank in the middle
weight division. In short, the victor
tonight, if the victory be decisive, will
loom up as the man the others must
beat to dispute his title.
There will be no decision at the
close of ten rounds. should the battle
go the full distance, for referees deci-
sions are barred by the laws that
govern the game, but the newspaper
boys will be at the ringside to tell the
merits of the game
To-night's clash carries with it in
ternatiOnal interest. Not that either

but because of their battles abroad.
Both McGoorty and Klaus have
fought in the far-off lands and each is
known all over the world. Klaus is
famed abroad for his decisive win
over Georges Carpenter. the French
champion, and for his victory over
Billy Papke, another battle fought on
foreign grounds.
Other minor bouts have been waged
in France by Klaus, but these made
him known to the foreign ring. His
American worth has been of top
notch caliber, hence the unpreiudiced
scribeS' reason for handing him the
best in the 158 pound division.

JACKETS ARE
FEELING FINE
AF TER CANE

Tn spite Of the heat and the earli-
ness of the season, the Tech yell
low Jackets came through the fray
with the Soldiers Saturday without an
injury or a strain that might prove in
any way severe. The usual unpleas-
ant soreness and stiffness Of joints
and ligaments, Of course, was very
noticeable yesterday. but a bit of good
old heel-and toe walking cross coun-
try took most of the lameness away,
and the squad reported fit and fine
this morning.
The next game. scheduled for Sat
urday at Grant Field, is with the
Charleston Citadel team, always a
good. stin contender, especially in the
early part Of the season. That team
has been working out a week longer
than the Mcpherson bunch, and will
be in excellent shape for a hard bat
tie Saturday, while there is no doubt
that the rival of Clemson and the Uni
versity Of South Carolina will be in
spired with plenty OF ambition to trim
the Jackets.
Tech Line Looked Good.
While most of the interest among
the Saturday spectators centered in
the performance OF the baukfield by
reason of the new men and their eX-
cellent rating. il was noted by careful
students of the game that the Heis-
man line was showing unusual form
for a green line in the opening game.
