HAVANA, Apr 3.-In a specially
constructed arena, inside the race
course at Miramar, Jess Willard, for
merly a Kansas cowboy, Monday after
noon will take up the white mans
burden. The young giant-hes we'll
over six feet tall and weighs nearly
250 pounds-will go against Jack
Johnson in a forty-five round battle
for the heavyweight championship of
the world.
Johnson Meets His Match
Not since James ]. Jeffries, once the
unbeatable, met and was conquered by
the black title holder at Reno, New,
est in pugilistic combat as has been
evinced in Mondays struggle. A
strongly rooted faith in the minds of
great many persons that this time
the big black has met his match IS
the chief cause of SO much interest.
On every side one hears the opinion
expressed that Willard stands the best
chance of beating Johnson that any of
his opponents have had.
Johnson isn't the great fighter that
he was when he wrested the title
from Little Tommy Burns, nor even
when he crushed the shell that once
was the mighty James ]. Jeffries. His
gay life-wine parties, joy riding, and
the like-has stamped its effect on
him.
Snap All Gone
Shrewd trainers, men who know
when fighters are in condition by look
ing at them, usually shook their heads
after watching Johnson's work, as
though they believed there was some
thing wrong. The snap wasn't there.
The big black didn't glide around with
the speed that he once showed. And
his work against his boxing partners
was very poor.
Willard is no match for Johnson on
straight ability. Even the white mans
most ardent admirers admit that. But
his youth is being counted on to
triumph over Johnson's age.
It is freely admitted that the ac-
tions of the referee will have a great
deal to do with the outcome of the |
battle. No matter in how poor shape |
he is, Johnson, if allowed to stall and |
hold as he has in most of his past
fights, may stick the forty-five rounds
with Willard. The white mans chance
to beat the negro lies in his fighting
at long range. If Johnson can keep
elinching and hold on in the clinches,
Willard's chances will dwindle ac-
eordingly.
Willard's Long Chance
Willard possesses, if figures do not
lie, slightly longer reach than the
negro. That should enable him to keep
away from Johnson's left jab, always
/ factor in his fights.
The white man, in all his past
lights, has been slow to act. He has
been mostly defensive fighter, allow
ng his opponent to carry the fight to
lin. Critics have questioned serious
y whether these tactics will prove of
wall against the negro. II

RUMORS FLOATING
CRUISER ESCAPED
ASSERTED GERMAN VESSEL PRINZ
EITEL FRIEDRICH SAILED
IN STORM LAST NIGHT
Wires to Newport News Are Down and
impossible to Secure Confirmation
TOday-N0 Cause for Secrecy

By the United Press Associations.
WASHINGTON, Apr. 3.-With the
land lines to Newport News down anti
official information lacking, specula-
tion is rife this afternoon as to the
rumors that the German cruiser Prinz
Eitel Friedrich had escaped during
the storm last night. The navy de-
partment is said to have reached Nor
folk by wireless but the message
wasn't answered.
1t is pointed out in official circles
that if the cruiser had escaped there
was no reason for secrecy. This led
to the reported fight being doubted,
the rumors being attributed to an en-
'ploye of the Maritime exchange at
Baltimore. The revenue cutter service
has received no word of the reported
escape.
RumOr From Baltimore
A rumor from Baltimore reached the
weather bureau this morning that the
Prinz Eitel Friedrich had escaped
from Newport News last night Wires
were down to Newport News and Nor
folk owing to the storm Although
confirmation of the rumor couldn't be
sustained, officials said conditions
were ideal last night for the Eitel to
attempt to escape, it being extremely
stormy.
German Embassy Ignorant
No news concerning the German
cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich has been
received at the German embassy since
yesterday. The attaches expressed the
belief that the cruiser would probably
make a dash if it saw chance to es-
cape.

London. May 19.-(By mail to
New York. June 2.--When the;
Leppelins come to London they will
find London ready. Britishers are
saying little about the s Zeppelins.s
They expect the raids; they are pre-!
pairing to deal with it. Officials Of.
the war Office, it is known, have
ceased to take the German threats
with a grain of salt. Since the Lust
tania disaster, they are viewing
things more, seriously. They believe
the Germans. when they say they'll
try to level London with their Yep
pelins.
For months preparations have been
going forward to deal with Count
Zeppein's air monsters. The gen
eral public knows that anti-aircraft
guns are in readiness to shoot the
heavens full of holes, and that Ions
don's fire brigades have been espec4
tally coached to deal with fires caused
by incendiary bombs. The aerial
wings of the army and navy have
several trump cards yet unplayed.
When the Germans come to London
they will play them, and not before.
Alarm System Complete.
Unoficially it is learned through
out England huge aerodromes have
been constructed, each harboring a
dozen fast air cruisers. Connecting
them is a veritable fire alarm" sys-
tenn, which, in due time, will tell
every aerodrome by the tapping OF
a gong that the kaiser's Zeppelins
have arrived on their fearful mission.
1t will be signal for great &C.
tivity. Hundreds of 'bumblebee''
warriors will soar into the air for
the attack. Every one of them will
carry a magazine full of small, high
explosive bombs equipped with sharp
hooks. It will be the aim of the
British aviators to rush at the Zep-
pelins at the rate of 100 miles an
hour, then to slow down over the
gigantic gas bags and launch the
hooked bombs. These bombs are
equipped with time . fuses. After
they hook themselves into the tough
silk fiber covering of the Zeppelins
they will not explode until ample
time has been given for the aeroplane
to wing itself to safety. Every ex-
plosion, according to the accepted
theory here, will mean one less Zep-
pelin in the kaiser's air fleet
Zeppelin Reported Damaged.
The new 'hooked bomb defense"
is believed to have been used dur
ing the recent air raid on Kent. Ten
naval machines at Dunkirk took up
the Zeppelin's TRAIL One machine,
piloted by Flight Commander Bigs-
worth, rose up until it was directly
over the airship. Then said the
solorless admiralty report:
'Bigsworth dropped four bombs
when 200 feet above the airship. A
large column of smoke was seen to
come from one of her compartments.
The Zeppelin rose to a great height,
1900 feet, with her tail down, and
is believed to have been seriously
damaged"
The admiralty made no announce
ment as to whether the. new hooked
