And that is just the one thing which. am convinced. neither the man nor the woman nor Rogers nor anybody else we have come across in this case can tell us.

BOXING NOTES

!, is5
 The French. light heavyweight champion, Georges Carpentier,e scored another victory last week in France when he Knocked out Pat Q'Keefe.N the Irish mid ddIeweight champion in two rounds OsKeefe had been put ting ups some very good contests both in Paris and London and while every one over there expected Carpenter to win, they figured that O'Keefe would at least go ten rounds with hixras How ever, the French boy did not wait but hurried matters the same ass he did when he stopped Bombardier Wells in one round. It is very likely that Car pentiers will now be matched with Bandsnaan B7ask e. lie English m is1dle weight, who has been making quite a good showing the past few months. If they meet. the chances are that Blake's manager will sscover that he cannot hope to give away weight to a husky youngsters like Carpenter. The French champion has esbeen handed very c1everly of late, for his manager has been careful not to select the hardest kind of a. game tQA put him against At that, the ~boys has been showing. wonderful form and is de- serving Of great credit for his climb to the top. He accepted an offerfroIn Snowy Baker to go to Australia. few weeks ago, but changed his mind and accepted three matches in Europe. It is possible that he may yet decide to make the Australian trip.
 Now that Packey McF,ar1and and
 Gibbons havesd decided to meet at a weight which is near the we1ter-s weight limit, it is possible that inter est may. be stirred up again in thiss division. The American welterweight limit has been fixed at 1425 pounds at three o'clock, or 145 pounds ringside for along time. However, the Euro pean weight and also the Australian weight is 14z pounds and this diScrep- ancy prevents international com test for the title unless one side or the other gives in. Tt is only one more case where uniform scale of weights is so badly needed. While Gibbons and Mcfarland announced this as Welterweight contest, Kid Graves, the Philadelphia. boy, is out with a ichal- Ierge to both Gibbons and Mcfarland for a battle at 145 ringside, the dis tances to be twenty rounds and the winner to be declared welterWeight. gchanpion. Graves offers to give his opponent a side bet of f$1, 000.A The. Kid is not trying to work a .luf, but is in earnest and judging from his entitled to meet any claimant to a match for the title.

 winner of the McFarland-Gi Gibbons contest would make quite an attrac- tive card for any club

APPEAL MADE
To the State Department to
Ascertain Whereabouts of
Persons in Europe.

WASHINGTON. Z. c., Aug. IL
The state department has been ap-
pealed to in order to ascertain, If
possible. the whereabouts of a party
from Winchester, Va, who are trav-
cling in Europe. Their friends and
relatives are greatly concerned about
them. as nothing has been heard
from them by cable since the, out
break of the war. Several letters
and postcards were received during
the last few days. but these were
mailed over two weeks ago, before
the outbreak of hostilities. One of
the parties. supposed to be now in
continental Europe is made up OF
DR.. and Mrs. Brantz Mayer, Roszel
and Miss Gertrude Barton. of Win
chester; Miss Margaret Chew, of
Charles Town, w. Va, and Miss Fan
ME Brady. of Wheeling, w. Va.
Their objective point was the Aus

AMERICAN COAL
Is Wanted by Warning Nations
But Only Little of 1t is
Being Exported.

WASHINGTON, Aug. lie. j.
Wittenberg, president of the Poca-
hontas and New River Coal Com
pany. who has been in the east in
conference with representatives of
the bituminuous coal companies,
said, in an interview that while a
great many inquiries for American
coal had come from the agents of
the French, Italian, German and
Austrian governments, no serious
attempts to fill these orders had
been made. Mr.. Wittenberg said
that the ordera were based on the
contingency of being able to ship the
coal. The war and money risks
were so heavy, he said. that bust
ness in that line was at stand
still.
Many orders are also coming in
for coal from South American
countries" said President Witten-
berg, but it is difficult to arrange
for shipping the coal on English
vessels. Coal is contraband of war,
and may be seized by vessels of
belligerent countries. and we have
not the American vessels for this
trade"

FEDERAL BANKING
WILL BE CHANGED
To Meet the Finance Situation
Caused by the War in
Europe.

WASHINGTON. D. c.. Aug. IL
Three amendments to the bank law
prompted by the European war were
introduced today in the Senate. They
would recognize cotton and other
staple warehouse receipts as COM
mercial paper upon which currency
could be issued up to rs per. cent OF

from 30 per cent to Is per cent OF
currency to be issued on commercial
paper and more fully define the stat
ute of state banks and fully empower
them If they join the federal rYserve
system to issue extra currency.
Senator Hoke Smith introduced
a Joint resolution to empower the
secretary of the treasury to Ak the

other half In currency direct to hold.

NEW YORK, Aug. ia British
warship poked her grey nose into the
entrance of New York harbor this
morning, steamed to within mile and
a half Of the bar, abruptly swung
around and out to sea again.
Through the heavy mist her name
was not discernible. Her three fun
nels and two tall masts led observers
at Sandy Hook to believe that she was
the Essex, which conveyed the White
Star liner, Cedric, the greater part
OF the way here from Halifax AS
she steamed down the Jersey coast,
however, observers thought she was
the Berwick.
Whatever the warship's name she
was the first to approach SO near New
York.
1t later developed that the warship
was the British cruiser, Suffolk.
