LATEST Hope is
SOUTH AFRICAN
PUGHIST

NEW YORK'-Recent develop
ments in the boxing game have been
just one surprise after another The
latest was the showing made by
George Rodel, the South African,
against ''Gunboat" Smith in a ten
round bout here recently. Rodel
proved that he must be seriously con-
sidered hereafter as a factor in the
white hope" class. He is not a
champion by a long sight, but he is
going to make his presence in the di-
vision strongly felt He is not a
boxer, but Just rough, strong, tear
ing fighter. There is nothing fancy
about his work. He knows only how
to keep on top of his man at all
times and whale away with both
hands. His apparent awkwardness
is his long suit. He keeps showing
his hands in his opponents face and
blocks more punches than are land
ed on him. His gameness, too, is I'M
questioned. After being knocked
down no less than eight times he al
ways came right back at Smith with
furious rushes. His recuperative
powers are nothing short of the won
dcrful. Any one of the punches that
Smith dropped Rodel with would have
stopped any other hope but not
Rodel. After being felled he coolly
took the count on his knees and when
he regained his feet actually fought
harder than he did before he was
He is as tough as an oak
miami and his marvplOuS Strau0th
combined with his stamina, gameness
and bruising, cutting punch in each
mitt, makes him dangerous oppon-
ent. He viii defeat good many
more men than will beat him.

w diGohu, Way IL lIto.
To the Sporting Editor of the Star
Bulletin.
Dear Sir:-In this evenings Star
Bulletin | noticed an article under the
beading of Records Will be Smashed
This Year
The composer of this article asserts
that John Paul Jones holds the record
for the mile run. He declares that
Jones time of minutes Is 2-5 seconds
is sthe fastest the mile was ever run.
wish to inform you that this is an
incorrect statement.
/ have been follower of all branch
es OF sport in various parts of the
world for very many years, and on
referring to my books of Records and
Statistics / find that w. G. George
has covered the mile in the fastest
time ever known.
In his match with W. Cummings. on
August %, 1886, at Little Bridge Ath
letic grounds, l,endon, England, w. G..
George completed one mile in the re-
markable time of 4 minutes 12% sec
onds, thus beating john Paul Jones
best endeavors by almost three Sec
onds-a considerable margin.
I would wish to draw your attention
10 the fact that w. Cummings in this
match ran his opponent to close fin
ish, but had the ill-luck to be beaten
by one foot.
Therefore, both George and Cum
mings have made faster time than
Jones'
In conclusion | would state that
while | admit John Paul Jones to be
an excellent runner yet in justice to
the sport | think il only fair that
credit should be given to George and
Cummings, where it is rightly due.
Yours very truly,
VICTOR lie MOTTE.

running of George and Cummings, but
their performances do not enter into
the present question at ALL The arti-

KAMS TAKE ONE
FROM HIGH nine

In L good game of baseball on Ma
kiki Field yesterday afternoon Kane
hameha defeated the High School by
a score of 1O-5. The Highs put up a
good fight but the Kamehamehas
showed they were superior to the
Highs from every point of the game.
The Highs attribute their defeat to a
lack of practice and their playing yes
terday afternoon bears out the state
ment The game was quite close all
through The Kamehameha boys did
not win the game by loafing and that
they won at all is a great part due
to the High Schools weakness. The
Highs were not weak in any one point.
The pitcher did not go up in the air
nor were all the errors made by one
man. The team was weak all over
and it is lack of practice that has
done it. There were many chances
for the High School boys to score but
they could not play fast enough to
take advantage of these openings that
we're continually presented to them.
The Highs played as though they had
not practiced since the last game.
Bush twirled for Kamehameha and
held the High School down fine. Bush
scored six strike-outs. walked six and
allowed five hits. Brash and Yen
Chin, the High School pitchers, scored
seven strike-Outs, walked four and al
lowed fourteen hits. Although Bush
did not score many strike-outs, he
held the Highs from making hits
which was almost as good, as he was
backed up by fielders who could be
relied upon. Hussey, the regular
catcher for Kamehameha was out of
the game yesterday owing to an acct
dent in the last game. His place was
taken by Cockett, who filled the po-
sition almost as well as Hussey HIM
self does,
The game was umpired by Dreier
The score follows.

WILSON CONSIDERS
CHINESE QUESTION
Attitude of Administration
Will Be Made Known To-
day in Statement.

WASHINGTON. March lI.-Presi.
dent Wilson will present for the con-
slderation of the cabinet tomorrow a
statement concerning China which is
intended TO be made public from the
White house later i'm the day. White
house and state department officials
observed tonight the strctest secrecy
about the statement and no one would
venture an 1ntimation as 10 it's probable
contents. 1t is known that the presi-
dent and Secretary Of State Bryan
have had several conferences on the
subject of China and particularly
long talk held in the executive offices
just before the secretsry's departure
for the west was said tonight to have
been devoted largely to Chinese ques-
tions.
There are two phases Of the Chinese
situation in which the United States
is peculiarly terested-recognition of
the republican government now nearly
two years old, and the proposed six
power loan.
The Chinese republic continually has
sought recognition bnt the policy of
President Taft and his secretary of
state. Mr.. Knox, was to withhold rec,
ognltloD until the new government had
demonstrated to the world its ability to
maintain itself as real republic, adj
mlnlstering popular government
The proposed Chinese loan by fiuan-
eial interests of the great powers has
been held up for long time, China
declining to agree to the terms pro-
posed. Banking houses Of the United
States, aided by the Influence of the
state department, obtained the consent
of the other powers for American par
ticipation in the proposed loan.
So far there has been no suggestion
from President Wilson or Secretary
Bryan as to what the policy of the ad-
would be either as to rec.
ognltion Of the republic or toward the
loan project

FINAL EFFORT TO
SAVE CHARLTON
Supreme Court Will Hear Argu
ments in Case the Last
Of April.

WASHINGTON. March 1.-THE fight
to save Porter Charlton from extradition
10 Italy for the murder OF his wife . at
Lake Como. on their honeymoon, opened
today in the supreme court when attor-
neys for Charlton filed their arguments.
The court will hear oral arguments prob
ably the last Of April. Much of the con-
tention OF Charltons lawyers is Intended
10 show that the United States govern
ment has no power. either by treaty or
statute, 10 turn over to foreign govern
ment an American citizen TO answer for
an alleged crime committed in a foreign
country
One OF the points relied upon by Char-
toms counsel. r. Floyd Clarke. was the
failure Of the Italian government to for
mally demand the eXtradition Of Charlton
within forty days OF his arrest as re-
quired by the treaty of 1865
IL was argued that since Italy had re-
fused to allow her citizens to be extra
dited the United States government could
not turn one of It's citizens over to Italy
for trial. and that the provision OF the
Italian penal code of 1890. prohibiting the
extradtIon Of its citizens, nulIified the
provision,
The point was also made that the New
Jersey court erred In not considering in
sa nifty as defense TO the request for
the extradltion.

S|MOOT SEES NO
DEMOCRATIC MENACE
Senator Says Disruption Of
Business Will Not Immedi-
ately Follow Legislation.
TARIFF TO BE REDUCED
Declares Republicans in Con-
gress Will Make Effort
for Protection.
TARIFF TO BE REDUCED

No immediate disruption Of business
in the country will follow the enactment
OF Democratic tariff measures by the
next congress, is the opinion of United
States Senator Reed Smoot, who is here
on hurried business trip from Wash
ington. Despite the fact that the Demo
crafts arc in absolute control OF all
branches of the national government
and that the passage Of Democratic
tariff measures by the extra session OF
congress is foregone conclusion, Sen
ator Smoot is optimistic over business
conditions and believes that the pres
ent prosperity will continue.
Of particular interest to Utah is the
disposition of congress with reference
to the tariff on lead. wool and sugar.
Senator Smoot said the Republicans Of
congress would make every effort to
retain AS much Of the present tariff on
these commodities as possible, though
1T is certain that the tariff on these
articles will be materially reduced. He
predicted that the Democrats would
place the tariff on lead at % per cent
ad valorem and that they would en-
deavor to place sugar and wool on the
free list

DECLINES TO RECEIVE
THE OFFICE SEEKERS

WASHINGTON, March 17.-The first
sequel 20 President Wilson's determine
ton to refer office seekers to members
OF his cabinet came today when Secretary
McAdoo announced that he was COM
PEELED TO decline to receive personal ap-
plications for office.
~ have tried IL for ten days" the sec
retary said, land find that 1t leaves me
no chance to attend to important public
business and besides Is absolutely futile.
None but a suPerman could remember at
the end Of a day every one who has
poured n story into his ears.
while I fully appreciate and sympa-
thiSe with the very natural and proper
desire OF those who are seeking places,
II should be made clear to
them that nothing is TO be gained by
haste. Ample time is going to be taken
to consider all applications. They should
be made In writing. They will be filed

tlon than if pressed In person"

Good VIII.

I might say that | am firmly OF the
belief that throughout tho country
there Is a. feeling of good will toward
the new administration and that
there is no inclination on the part of
any one TO bring on any reaction be-
cause of the threatened action of the
Democrats on the tariff.
When asked relative to the interview
purporting To come from him on The ac-
tion of the Utah senate in killing The res
olution for the ratification OF the amend.
mcnt 10 the federal constitution provid-
ing for the direct election OF United
States senators. Senator Smoot said:
have never been interviewed on
the subject, So OF course I did not say
that ] regretted the action OF the
Utah senate in failing TO vote to rati-
fy the proposed amendment, The ac-
tion of the legislature is now passed
and gone and t wouldn't care to
make any comment on II at all.
Senator Smoot expects to return 10
Washington the latter part of the week.

Strong Cabinet.

The senator was optimistic in refer
ring to the new administration He said
that President Wilson s policy was
still matter of conjecture, but that
the president had strong cabinet
which would tend to make tho admins
tration stronger. The senate, he said,
was thoroughly radical. the Democrats
having cast conservatism and precedent
to the winds. Much bitterness, he said,
had resulted but ne hoped that this
would soon wear Off.
In the opinion of the senator only
tariff legislation will be taken up. by
congress at the extra session. He be
lieves that the session will last we'll
into the summer. While currency ques.
tions are being discussed Senator Smoot
does not believe any currency legisla-
tion will be undertaken at the extra
session
