BOXING
COMMISSION BAD
Sheriff Hamburger Says Bouts
Between Whites And Blacks
All Right


Sheriff Hamburger gave out the fol-
lowing statement yesterday in refer
enoe< to the action of the New York
State Athletic Commission in prohibit
ing boxing bouts with negroes and
white men opponents.
1.-The Boxing Commissioners have
violated the doctrines of the Consti-
tuition of the United States and of the
laws of the State of New York, and
should Noe removed by the Governor of
this State.
TN barring contests between coIored
and white men citizenship has been
set aside and an asinine rule adopted
which will not hold in any court of
Justice in this State, and the clubs
can engage citizens to box under a law
which is recognized by the highest au-
thority in this State. This lI1dicrous
rule which the board has adopted
should not be tolerated by any club
in this State The board allows non
citizens to engage in boxing contests.
have witnessed a Chinaman boxing
at two clubs, and not an objection
by these censors. I do not wish to SEE
our State violating a constitutional
provision The question of citizenship
is. at stake. 1t is as rnonentouS now
as when the great PRESIDENT Lincoln
made the coIored men free, and from
that time on, until now, their rig1l is
as free men have been recognized by
law, and these rights cannot be abridg-
ed Sentiments of a. prejudiced nature
must not prevail

minutes 4S seconds, just four seconds
ahead Of Ankle Deep, of the United
States The other American entry,
Disturber LII, was fourth in 43 min
utes "a 4-5 seconds. Desperjons II,
of France, which won the opening
trial Wednesday, broke down during
the fifth lap and was unable to finish.
Despite Eng1and's victory the Amer

work on the gridiron there. Capt.

IF any fans are still losing sleep

the pennant is to travel at 500 clip

should the Giants break even on
their remaining p games they would

In order to beat this performance
the PhflIies would have to. win % of
their remaining 27 games, 1852 clip

Richie Promises
To Meet All Corners

Cofncident with Willie Ritchfee with
drawa1 from his match with Freddie
Welsh a. letter has been published in
which the lightweight champion sets
forth at great length what purports to
be his exact position in the boxing
world Ritchie heads his statement by
saying that his motive is to make clear
to the public just what his intentions
are regarding his various challengers,
SO that he will not be understood
and his popularity injured.
What follows reads like a fairy tale
too good to be true. If Ritchie fol-
lowed out the schedule he outlines he
would become the model pugilist of all
time. Popularity, says Rftchie is what
he desires above all things, and he VIII
stop at nothing in order to enjoy the
good will of every boxing fan in the
country.
In brief, he promises not to avoid
any worthy challenger; following his
bout with Welsh to take on Packey
Mcfarland, Leach Cross and Tommy
Murphy in the order named: to see
that. his opponents receive a just share
of the purses; to avoid long theatrical
tours between matches and, in a word
to act as no champion of the ring, past
OF present, ever thought-of doing.
However, the dispatches from Van
couver are strangely at variance with
Rftch1e'sN bold utterances. To al ap
parances he has at last come to real
ize that his former conqueror would
have almost an even chance of, repeat
ing.
Ritch1e was guaranteed $4,000 and
so per cent. of the moving pictures, the
total of which he himself estimates
back on all this with no excuse that
sounds at all reasonable at this dis
tance.
Welsh has already made claim to the
worlds lightweight championship by
default, as is the fashion in England.
No doubt he will receive just as much
recognition in his own country as he
would if he had knocked Ritchie out.
An American title cannot pass except
through q referees official verdict, but
elsewhere Welsh may be able to make
his contention good. At any rate, Rit-
chic has been placed. in an unfaVorabIe
light and it is up to him to do -as-tot of
explaining

19O7-Abe AttelI defeated Jimmy

This was the third and last bout be-

was so long the leader in his class

Their first meeting was at Chelsea in

full Is rounds, but lost the decision
Jimmy still believed he could lick
Able, and late in the same year they
were matched at Los Angeles. Attell

President O'Rourke of the Eastern

from the meeting in Boston where the

Shortstop Bill Morley of Hartford has
Joined Washington and If he cannot
return Hartford will be in a fine fix
without a shortstop. It would look
great to use a pitcher or catcher in
the infie1d- C1arkin should have in
sisted upon his rights and demanded
the privilege of using another league
shOrtstop if he could not get Morley.
He is entitled to that and would be
justified in refusing to play unless the
Lowell people consented. Now he is
up a tree if he cannot secure Morley
