 Canadian Cruiser

Vancouver, B. O.. July 2o.--No move will be made for a couple of days to take out the steamer Komagata Maru and her 300 Hindu passengers who have refused landing by the Cana dian immigration authorities Such was the decision reached today The likelihood is that the Canadian cruis- CT Rainbow will be ready to cross from Esquimault for the purpose of conveying the Japanese vessel beyond the three mile limit if not further.
 The Hindus on the vessel are in a jubilantmmood. though relaxing none of their watct1fulness.
 The orders of the Dominion gov ernment to get the Komagata. out of the harbor as quickly as possible will result in the vessel being sent away witbin AS hours, probably with the ass- sistance of Admiral KiHgsmil1 and his crew on the Rainbow. f Y A pitched battle between irnHnigra.- tion inspectors, special police and the Hindus occurred on board the Roma gaa on Sunday when the ships officers asked leave to move the vessel.

Washington. July 2o.--Application of the new. militia Jaws to the national guard has caused q heavy paper nor tality among the highly ornamental ocers.

For more than acentury the holders of this old Scottish title have been patrons of the ring, and the present Marquis has fol- lowed the example of his father. As a nntdshipman in the British navy the eighth MarQuis visited New Orleans during the civil war. He sympathized with the North, while most of his com panions upheld the Confederate cause, and the young nobIeman was .often called upon to defend his principles with his fists. The Marquis was only twenty-one when he joined with John, G. Chambers in founding the Amateur Athletic Club which had for its pur- pose the encouragement of amateur boxing under rules which should en- courage skill rather than brutality Under the old code of the London prize ring the boxing game had fallen into disrepute, but Queensberry and Chambers re-established 1t on, a new basis.

From the first he showed speed and science. and his skill has won for him the name of s'The ghost-like in his solid blows.
 Gibbons belong to the new school of gentlemanly, clean living boxers, and at his best he is one of the abIest ring generals in the history of the game. He never administers unneces- sary punishment to an opponent. Of his career Gibbons has said:
 From the first I tried to develop science as a boxer, rather than slug ging ability. In my youth I was a tinsmith, but I took to pugilisn na- turally, and had fought a dozen fights before I ever saw two good men per form. Curiously enough, my first in struction in the finer points of the higher pugi1ism was from watching the pictures of the Britt and Nelson bout. It was an odd way to get a start. but I absorbed every move they made and was teaching boxing at the Y. M. c. A. in St. Paul when had never put on the gloves with a man of class in the game.
