Anderson and Cross.

"Bud Anderson, the Vancouver
lightweight, will find out on New
Years afternoon whether his Knockout
by Leach Gross, July last, was an ac-
cident or not. "BudH is to meet his
Leachlets again in Los Angeles over
the marathon route, and he feels sure
that the New York dentist cannot re-
peat the trick. F'Bud'' may fool the
wise ones, but just the same he will be
fighting under a handicap, for that
previous knockout will always be star
ing him in the face and he will have a
bit more regard for Leachie than he
would have if such thing had never
occurred. 1t is seldom that fighters
turn the tables on the boys who have
handed them the o. K.
After many sleepless nights and con.
siderable expense, Promoter Jim Coff
roth OF San Francisco has succeeded in
rematching Willie Ritchie and "Har-
lem' Tommy Murphy for January 23.
the bout for December 10 having been
called off because of a slight operation
on Willie's nose. The weight will be
the same-135 pounds one hour before
ring time-which means that they will
not battle at the American lightweight
limit, which is 1873 pounds ringside
Perhaps Ritchie intends to try TO
raise the limit to 1S5 pounds, which
would harmonic with the weight for
that class in all parts Of the world
where boxing holds forth, except that
in most countries the weighipg.iu time
is at or 8 O'Clock in fhe afternoon
Of the day Of battle, The weight has
been at 1913 pounds since Jack Mean
life won the title back in the SOS.

May Meet Carpenter.

There is talk of matching the winner
with Georges Carpenter, the French
champion, who tumbled Bombardier
Wells over for the count in two rounds
ten days ago, but l doubt whether the
manager of the Freucbman will fall for
a match of that kind. Carpenter is a
great young fighter, but he weighs at
best about l70 pounds, and cannot af-
ford to give away twenty to forty
pounds to men like Smith and Pelky.
Such a match would be interesting,
however, as it would really be for the
world g championship title among white
men-Carpentier holding the champion
ship of Europe at the present time. And
while these interesting events are on it
is probable that Jack Johnson, the
negro champion, will arrange a match
with Frank Moran, the Pittsburg
heavyweight, for Jacks title.

Dillon VS.. Clabby.

There is a possibility that Jimmy
Clabby and Jack Dillon will be
matched around tho first of the year
for a ten,roupd bout at the middle.
weight limit of l5s pounds at 3 o clock.
CIabby has been holding out for 1853
four hours before the contest, but Dill.
Ion has been eager TO make the weight
$50 pounds. However, Dillon s man
ager, Jimmy Walters, says he viii
agree TO the l5S notch if the clubs will
make it an object for him to train off
an extra pound or two.
At the real middleweigbt limit these
boys would put mp great battle, but
with Dillon weighing over tho I60-
pound mark, the clever Hammond
youth would be giving away too much,
as he can easily strip at l5s pounds and
be at his best It would be a real
middleweight battle and would do a lot
TO clear up the title question, for these
two are without doubt among the best
OF that weight in the world TODAY, with
McGoorty, Klaus and Chip following.

UNITED CIGAR STORES
 ROBBERS NOW IN LIMBO
Detectives Run Them Down with Pic
 lure Wire as Clue.

New York, April 1S.-A piece of pie ture wire today led to the arrest of four men charged with holding up and United Cigar Stores company in New ' orl1 and vicinity The wire was used to tie the hands and feet of the cigar store clerks. Detectives found where 1t was purchased and lay in wait un- til today. when the men now under arrest called for a supply. The sus- poets were followed and three of them were captured at the points of re- volwers in a trolley car in New Ro- chelle. The fourth was arrested at 8 hotel and a young woman who ac- companied him was held as material witness.
 The prisoners are Charles Truax, an ex-employe of the United Cigar Stores company; John Mcdonald. who, the police say. has a long record as a post office burglar; Frederick H. Clark and Joseph S. Duval. Clerks with the scars of the wire bonds stin on their wrists came from half a dozen of the cigar company's branch stores today and identified Truax. Clark and DuvaI as the men who held them up and rifled their safes and cash drawers of sums varying from $200 to several thousand dollars Truax was held in court in e5000 bail ou three charges, Duva1 and Clark in similar bail on one charge each, while Mcdonald was set free for lack of evidence. Mcdonald however was immediately re-arrested on an- other charge of robbery.

CHARLTON FIGHTING
 AGAINST EXTRADITION
Claim Made That United States Is Not
 Required to Surrender Him.

Washington, A pril 1S-A final appeal was made today in the supreme court of the United States by Porter Charl- ton, the American youth charged with the murder of his wife on their honey moon at Lake Como, Italy, on June 2. 1910 in an effort to block the demand of the Italian government that he be returned to its shores for trial and decision tohday.
 Charlton himself was not in court. Ever since he stepped off the steamer from Italy at the New Jersey pier just after his wife's body had been found in the waters of Lake Como, he has been imprisoned in Hudson County, New Jersey. awaiting final disposition of the Itaalian governments request before the court today on an appeal from the refusal of the New Jersey court to release him on habeas corpus proceedings, after the state depart ment had turned him over to the Ital- ian authorities.
 Questions by the court stirred the opposing attorneys to a -consideratil Il Of whether the court has the right to go behind the action of Secretary Knox of the state department in grant ing the requested extradition.
 Attorney R. Floyd Clarke told the court that the Italian government had for years interpreted the treaty of 1869 to mean that it was not required to surrender to the United States it's sub tects for trial in the Unied Stotes.
 The refusal so to do. he contended, was breach of the treaty and as q matter of law a breach destroyed the obligation resting upon the other coun- try to perform it's part under tke treaty.
 Chief Justice White suggested that the correspondence between the Italian government and the state department showed that the Italian governrn ent expressly stated it did not demand Charlon under the treaty but upon special grounds
 Justice Pitney pointed out that the Italian government in a subsequent letter. did place the demand upon the treaty.

Population of Germany.

The population statistics, based on the imperial census of December 1, 1910, just published, show that the total population of Germany has in- creased by 15.18 Der cent in the space of ten years. One of the most re-
 narkable facts shown by the new statistical tables is the importance of the foreign element in the German Empire, and the extent to which the foreign and foreign born population has recently increased. With a popu- la.tion of 63,925,993 subjects of the im- perial throne, Germany also counts 1,259,873 foreigners within her front iers. It is patent that Germany is importing brains and labor. for the in crease in the foreign population has been four times as rapid as that of the native pepulation-the increase, in deed. was nearly 20 per cent in only five. years, the total addition to the foreign population within this period being 231,313.
 There is little fear that the charac ter of the nation will be changed in foreign element comes from German speaking Austria, and the next largest element comes from Holland, a coun- try which has more in common with Germany than most of the other na- tions. In all, there were IA, 900 Dutch men, 137,000 Russians, 104, ,000 Italians. and 6S,60o Swiss. The Rhine prov tnces continue to be more tnternatier- al than any other part of the empire. The statistics to religion show that the Protestants outnumber Rom an Catholics in the proportion of three to tWos-London Standard.

But now that Colonel Bryan in his public statement has done what he can , to remove the injurious impressions that were created by his Baltimore speeches. I feel that we can all the better cooperate for the good of the administration. can only repeat what 1 have publicly declared time and time again. that all personal or selfish con- alterations must give way to the duty that all democrats owe to our party and to our country"

 Those at the table with the others appearance of what many political sages thought the most en1barra ssing situation confronting President Will sons administration were: Vice Presi- ators Kern and OaGorman; Represen- tat1ve Crisp, Secretary Tumu1ty: As sistant Secretary Osborne and Ma lone of the state department; Thomas E.

CALIFORNIA AWAITS
 A HINT FROM WILSON.
Action on Anti Alien Land Bill De-
 ferred Until Next Week.

Sacramento, Ca1if., April 18-Furth- CT action on the antf-a1ien land bills pending before the California Iegisla- ture has been deferred until next week This decision was reached, it was said today, because some Japanese gover- ment against possible infringement of tn etreaty rights of Japanese citizens in this state
 Reports of the popular agitation in Japan over the proposed action in California provoked considerable com ment about the Iegislatiove chambers today. The violence of these protests as well as the inquiries as to the eff feet of the proposed bills upon other alien interests for California, led to the belief here that President Wilson might find it expedient to indicate his views or suggest course of action tending to relieve the situation.
 If the position taken by tn Jap anese is what cable despatches con tain, said one of the senate leaders to- day, it seems inevitable that some word must come from Washington soon, without waiting for the passa ge of a particular bill by the legislature.
 For that reason and in view of the widespread interest that has sprung up in California, 1t was thought bet ter to postpone any further consider at1on of the matter until next week.

 Secretary Bryan's prepared state ment issued tonight is as follows:
 My meeting with Mir. Clark has Rs to my exact position toward him at the Baltimore convention. have tried to make it clear to MT. Clark that have always regarded and do now re- democrat. If my language at Balti- more created any impression that I was charging MT. Clark with being in sympathy with any of the reactionary forces am glad of the opportunity to correct any such misconstruction of my words or acts, for I did not in tend to reflect upon either the personal or political integrity of the speaker It Is my earnest wish that there may be cordial cooperation between the state department and the speaker in carrying out the policies of the admin istration.

 They were informed that babies were shipped out of the state when only 8 few hours old and their moth CTS were hired out to nurse the in fants of the wealthy. Superintendents of maternity homes admitted they kept no records. that once a child was sent away there was nothing by which it could be traced.
 No Records Kept at All.
 "But don't you ever inquire how these babies are treated whether they live or die " inquired Chairman Cur ran of Dr. Charles s. Wood of the Union Park Maternity home.
 We keep no records at all"
 The testimony brought out the fact that 8s per cent. of the unmarried pa tients in the '1ying-in'' hospitals are girls fron out of the state who come to the city to hide their shame.
 Demand Exceeds Supply.
 The heads of the homes said they advertised extensively that they had babies for adoption" but that such advertisements are blinds They as- serted the demand for infants exceed ed the supply.
 pr. Wood said that in twelve years there have been 665 patients in his hospital and denied there ever had been a death. When the committee showed him the records of the city health department to which four still births had been reported he changed his testimony. He insisted no crippled children had been born.

 The doctor said he spent s1.6oo in advertising, mostly in farm publica- tions He charged patients from s10O to $500, he said.
 A physician from the health depart ment testified that Woods hospital was unsanitary and he would recom- mend that 1t be closed.

 Be Seriously Impaired.

Ithaca, N. Y. April 1s.-Harry Thurston Peck. professor of ancient languages in Columbia university for 28 years. is critically ill at the Ithaca city hospital He is under the care of special physicians and nurses who give little hope of recovery, although they say the end may not be near.
 Professor Peck came here a few days ago to visit friends and was soon after stricken by a nervous disease and his nerves and mental condition are seriously impaired. His former wife, who is in New York, is being kept in touch with the professors con- dltion by bulletins every few hours.

 When Dr. Amici visited the pope shortly before midnight he found his temperature at 97.2. He said the con- ditfon of the patient was satisfactory and that he was finding great relief from his coughing by taking a sooth- ing liquor of ammonia favored with anise seed After Dr. Amici's visit Pope Plus went to sleep. His breath count of his catarrh.
 Professor Ettore Marchiafava, the pope's chief physician, was asked by the Associated Press tonight concern ing the condition of his patient. In writing he replied as follows:
 Never Doubted His Recovery.
 ."Fhe holy father has suffered from influenza with a slight affection of the trachea, and large bronchial tubes. Broncho-pneumonia has never even been suspected. I have never doubted for his recovery sooner or later. His general condition always has been of the best His heart and pulse are strong and normal and the sensoria1 nerves intact"
 It must be added, however. that a1- though all Professor Marchiafava says in his statement may be perfect ly true, another affection exists which is not in an acute stage now but is always liable to recur. This is a gouty kidney.

 The better condition of the pope is shown by his increasing interest in affairs.
