SEMI-CENTENARY OF FAMOUS AMERICAN CHAMPION
 SHTR R(lTTr

An almost forgotten page of Amer ican ring history was recalled last month by the death in Brooklyn of James Dunne, one time heavyweight champion ~rof America. It was just half century ago today, on May 15, 1865. that the fight fans Of New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Mary land began to assemble in Pike coun- ty. Pa, to witness the bout scheduled for the following day, in which Dunne and Bill Davis were to do battle for the American heavyweight title It was atcosmopolitan crowd which as- sembled at the ringside on the day set and among the roughs and toughs were many men of note, famous in business and the professions. The last gun of the Civil war had been fired, and the prize fight was of the nature of celebration
 The last previous battle for the title was between Mike McCoole and Joe Coburn, at Charleston, Md, in 1863. After winning the honor, Co., burn retired from the ring for the time. and Bill Davis claimed the championship. Davis was known as a Californian, having fought most ct his earlier battles in the Golden state. James Dunne was native of Ireland, but came to America as a boy, and settled in Brooklyn, where ! he soon made reputation as an ath- lete and a politician. Up to the time he challenged Bill navis' rights to the American championship. Dunne was looked upon as an amateur in the boxing game. He had fought several good men, including a few profes- sionals, but he had not posed as a professional bruiser.
 Davis was a favorite with the ma jority of the sporting men who were at the ringside on the sixteenth of May half century ago. There were not a few who favored the Brooklyn Irishman, however, and considerable

wards hundred times at Taste. to find out uf the wind is good, for be- ing out of breathe in foighting, me boy, is terrible thing. Now Jack the old gladiator continued, it being then the night before the fight, we must go home directly. and drink half a gallon of the sourest butterrnilk ye can get, and then go to bed. At five o'clock in the morning ye must get up and run three or four miles, and at every mile ye must swig, not Whls- key, by Jasus, but quart of spring water. Mind. now, Langan, and do as I bod you."
 Langan was easily the victor in the battle for which he trained in so novel a manner. and after that whipped ali the best men in Ireland and was rec ognieu as the champion. When he could get no more men to fight him he joined an Irish regiment bound for South America ot help the people or that land fight for their indepen- dence As soldier in the patriot army of South America he had many hriltling adventures and not few fistic fights with his comrades. Upon his return to Ireland he fell in love with a dairymaid, and when she be- came mother he had to pay $500 to the enraged father. He then went to England. where. after sew eral ring victories, he was matched with Tom spring for the British cham pionship. He fought gallantly for eighty-six rounds, but in the end was defeated. In another match with Spring, lasting seventy two rounds, he again came off second best. Af- ter this Langan retired from the ring and opened a '.pub' in Liverpool where lie married and became pros porous citizen.

 ERA OF PROSPERITY
War Scare a Consideration, bal
 UndeTions is Strong.
Special to the Herald.l

New York, May 15.-Though un- settled on Friday, the stock market continued strong throughout the first portion of the week, presumably upon the hope that this country would not be involved to the extent of actual hostilities with Germany. President Wilson's calm but firm policy had an assuring effect, and, the country, though deeply stirred, refused to be-. come excited Nevertheless, there is no concealing the fact that the coun- try is facing a grave crisis, and no one can tell the outcome of the pres ent controversy. "A peaceful settle ment, it is to be hoped, will be reach ed-and it is devoutly wished that it will The effect of war upon the United States will be less serious than upon any other nation. We can at present probably do but little harm to Germany and she can certainly do still less to us. Some further de- rangement of international trade and finance may follow, but nothing like the blow which fell so unexpectedly last July. In fact, the United States is exceedingly we'll prepared to meet any such shock, and no serious dis. turbance need be anticipated; besides, dI LHIS WrItlng- IL Is premature to TIT dulge such fears, and better to hope for peaceful outcome.
 War Biggest Consideration.
 Unavoiviably the war continues to outweigh all other considerations in financial circles. When the finances of all the great powers in the world are under the greatest strain in his tory; when millions of men are en- gagged in destruction instead of pro-, duction, and that by the most de- structive methods which devifish in- genuity can invent; when the trade of several of the greatest commercial nations is demoralized when inter- national industries are being destroyed wholesale: only misguided optimism can talk about real prosperity. The United States has one supreme ad- vantage; its isolation from European politics. Our relations with Europe are becoming closer and closer every year as commerce and intercourse grow, but thus far our policy of avoid ing entangling alliances has proved

sums were wagcred on tie result It was terrific combat with the bare fists, and it was not until forty-three rounds, lasting one hour and six min utes, had been fought, that Dunne proved his mastery.
 Although by his victory Dunne be-. came the recognized champion of American fighters, he had no ambition to make pugilism a profession, find ing politics g more congenial field, and soon announced his retirement from the ring. He continued to be inter ested in the game, however, and dur ing the latter part of his life was a manager of boxers. He was twenty three when he became champion, and was even then prominent in the dem ocratic political organization of Brooklyn. Tn 1870 he was chosen leader of the sixth ward democracy. During the Coler administration in Brooklyn he was superintendent of the sewer system. For a time he de- serted the democratic party to align himself with Hearst's Independent league, but returned to the demo- cratic fold when Gaynor ran for mayor. At the time of his death Dunne was seventy three years old, and he was hale and hearty almost to the last.
 Although boxing was his favoritc sport. he was also a great devotee of nandball, and was at one time the worlds amateur champion at that game. He was the founder of the Brooklyn Handball club, and when he was past seventy he could beat many young men at handball.
 Bill Davis again claimede the Amer ican championship when Dunne re- tired, but in 1866 he was defeated by the giant Irishman Mike McCoole, in thirty-four round battle fought near St. Louis. When McCoole re- linquished the title. Davis claimed, it, a third time, but in 1869 he was whipped in a battle at St. Louis by Tom Allen, an Englishman, who then became champion of America. Allen was defeated by Jem Mace and Joe Goss, both of English birth, and the latter lost the American title to Paddy Ryan, native of Tipperary. It was not until Sullivan whipped Ryan in 1882 that American again had native-born champion of the heavy weights.

 ccmbcr i, 1915.

ccmber |, 1915.
 Washington May IS. the applica- tion of the Pennsylvania, New York Central, Lehigh Valley and other rail- roads to retain ownership or contin- ued operation of boat lines on the Great Lakes, despite the prohibition in the Panama Canal Act, was denied today by the interstate state commits sion. All the railroads applying must give up their boat lines by December 1, 1915.
 This is the first case involving ex- tensive steamship properties under the new law which has been decided against the railroads.
 The commission held that none of the lake line services maintained by the petitioning railroads "Is being lie or is of advantage to the con- venience of commerce of the people" within the meaning of the Panama canal act, and that permission to al- low their operation by railroads Twill prevent, exclude and reduce compe- tition on the Great Lakes"
 The decision is regarded as of great importance to all the ports on the lakes which are reached by both boat and rail lines. The fact that they are reached by both those agencies of transportation the commission says, establishes case of compe- tition existing between the owning i and It's boat line"

 On Friday the market was Of course much unsettled by the prospect of difficulties with Germany, concerning which the presidents action in the matter appeared in the morning pa- pers. The following are my views thereon; the people of this country must stand by our president. Presi dent Wilson's note to the German gov ernment is worthy of commendation from every citizen of the United States Its tone is courteous, but at the same time firm and dignified. Its language admits of no. misconstruction. He appeals to the high ideals Of the German race and compliments them on their previous record on the side of justice and humanity. He frankly states his demand for full rcparation for the several acts where our rights have been invaded, and the fact that he indulges in no bonabastic utter ances adds strength and dignity to hts words. He has written neither too much nor too little, and his note will fill large page in history. Let us hope and pray that the German gov ernment will recognize the justice of his pronouncement and thereby ce- ment the friendship which has hither- to existed between our respective na- tions.
