Since the adoption of a plan by the

months ago whereby its train en-
ployes, track forces and others could
be enlisted in times of emergency to
render assistance in putting out fires
on property adjacent to It's tracks as
we'll as on the right-of-way, there
have been numerous instances where
serious losses have been prevented.
The blanks throw of moving trains
by engineers and conductors have
brought prompt aid from the working

is said, from the fact that no postal

WHITE FAVORITE OYER
WELSH AT 6 TO 5 ODDS
Chicagoan Expected to Beat
Champion TO-night-Knock-
out Figures Now 4 to 1.

The unusual circumstance OF a chal-
lenger being %favorite over "A champion

OF Chicago assails Freddie Welsh's light
weight title in a ten round bout at the
Brighton Beach racetrack tonight. Be-
cause Of the large amount Of Chicago
money offered at / 10 4 that White wins
by a knockout the straight odds are s to
3 ON White to beat the Englishman.
A string OF six successive knockout
victories for his rival has caused Welsh
to take the bout more seriously than
any other he has fought since he won
the crown from Willie Richie last sum
mer. His defeat by White in a no de-
cision bout at Milwaukee last winter,
when the champion was barely able to
stall through the last round. has not
been forgotten. Welsh is bent on WHIP
ing out his old score and has trained
a~ssiduously for two weeks ut Centreport.
l.. !. White did most Of his preliminary
work at Chicago. but since a week ago
has been tolling at Rye Beach.
Dick Peters and a lot of rugged youths
unknown to fame but able to a X a
hard punch have been working out with
White. Welsh has had as sparring part
ners a flock of men scarcely less known
than himself-lounR Ahearn, soldier
Bartfeld. Mike Wagner. Eddi Moy,
Jimmy DUFFY Johnny Burke. Moy
and Wagner are the only ones OF these
men who will appear as contestants in
%to-night's ring. Moy will oppose Pete
McVey. a punching lightweight from
Seattle. in the ten round semi-inal, n
Wagner will box six rounds with
Charley Barry. Billy Roche will referee
all three conflicts.
The principals in the main bout will
weigh in at Considine's at . o'clock this
afternoon. The stipulated weight is 135
pounds at that hour. Directly afterward
Welsh will motor to the S~helburne Hotel
and White to the Brighton Beach Hotel
to rest while awaiting the gong that
calls them to action.
