Particular notice was called by the premier to the recent trouble in Plume between Italian soldiers and the French.

CINCINNATI, July 9.-P)-Jack Dempsey is in receipt of an offer of $125,000 for a bout with the winner of the Carpentier-Beckett fight which is to be pulled off in England this month. Promoter Cochrane of Paris wired Dempsey stating he would guarantee this sum, win, lose or draw, if the champion would meet the winner of the coming fight.
 Dempsey stated today he fully ex- pected to accept the offer, saying he will fight in Europe if his opponent refuses to come to America. Demp- sey's manager will endeavor to have the fight take place in some Ameri can city, as the champion much pre- 'ers to fight at home. However, Jack will not let a little thing like the location of the bout interfere with his meeting the other fellow in a fast and furious go.
 Georges Carpentier, champion French heavyweight and John Beckett are scheduled to meet the latter part of this month and it is reported that the Frenchman is slightly the favor ite in the betting.
 The amount offered Dempsey by Cochrane is twenty five thousand dol lars more than Willard got for the Fourth of July fight. From present indications, Dempsey is willing to take on any and all corners providing the fight conditions are agreeable.

JAPAN DENIES
 REPORT ABOUT
 GERMAN TREATY
EMBASSY AT WASHINGTON SAYS JAPAN NEVER CONSIDERED A SEPARATE TREATY WITH GER MANY AT ANY TIME SINCE THE WAR STARTED IN 1914.

WASHINGTON, July 9.-P-The Japanese embassy here issues a strenuous denial that Japan has ever tried to enter into treaty with Ger many since hostilities began with that country. Many rumors have been circulated that Japan has endeavor. ed at various times to reach an agree ment with the German government providing for the cessation of hos. tilities between the countries. The reports allege that these efforts were made at time when the allies were depending upon Japan for support in the Far East, time when such a treaty would have been disastrous to the plans of the allied nations.
 The Japanese embassy states there is absolutely no foundation for the rumors as no attempt was ever made to enter into a treaty with Germany.
