DEMPSEY'S SIGNING
 WILL CLINCH BOUT
Carpenters Manager Tells of
 Conditions Surrounding Match.

Paris, Feb. 25.-That a fight be- tween Georges Carpenter and Jack Dem psey for the heavyweight cham pionship of the world will go to whatever prom oter succeeds in sign ing Dempsey to a contract is the gist of an interview with NJ. Descamps Carpenters manager, which will be published by "Sporting," weekly publication dealing with boxing.
 T have given my signature to (. E. Cochran of London. Theodore Vienne of Paris, William Fox of New York city and Tex Rickard. as shall give it 10 any one who shall bring me sufficient guarantees, always. however. with the provision that Dempsey's signature be obtained,' said NJ. Descamps.
 MT. Cochran is a personal friend Of mine. That is why I gave him the preference after Carpenters match with Beckett But up to this date he has been unable to secure Dempsey's signature. Meanwhile I have received a telegram from Jack Kearns, manager of Dempsey. saying that Dempsey had not signed with any one. He also advised me strongly to deal with Tex Rickard and asked me to so to the United States, where he said Kearns and Rickard were awaiting me. Carpenter and I will leave on March IS.
 T am not forgetting that Cochran holds Carpenter practically bound until the end of the year, but inas- much as he has not succeeded in se- curing Dempsey's signature, and when he realizes that this will be i'm mpossible, he is too good a. sport to stand in our way of putting the light fhrOnph hpoaI1SP should
 sign with either Rickard or Fox the contract Cochran has with us be- comes null"
 Vienne, the Paris promoter. has virtually given up hope of holding a bout between Carpentier and Demp- sey in France, owing to the exchange rate situation. and sporting men say it is the opinion of Descamps and all sporting men in Paris that if the fight takes place it will be in the United States.

 Col. Ruppert was seen at the Tray more, where he is attending the Hast stand" conference of the nations brewers.
 There are five good clubs-Chi- cago, Cleveland, Detroit, Boston and New York.
 Will the Yankees get the pen nant:" Col. Ruppert was asked.
 II don't say they are going 10 get the pennant." he replied, put they will be pennant contenders. We nave a good team. We are looking for an outfielder. and hope to succeed in landing the right man, but even aside from that consideration we have 3rOd team.'
 Col. Ruppert believes that the new chairman of the national com mission will be selected in New York. He said he has no idea who will be chosen
