BOXING IN THIS :,
 CITY COSTS THE
 PROMOTORS HEAVY

Boxing is in bad way in Bridge port and it is doubtful if many more shows will be stage din this city this winter. The East Side Athletic club dropped about S1,1O0 on the show Monday night at the Casino, according to the best unofficial 1n- formation, making the fourth that as< been run at financial loss In ,-rne last two months. Promoters do not feel able to continue paying money out of their pockets to give others entertainment and for this reason coming attractions will be few and far between.
 Jim Crossman, Al Jennings and Dan Hatfield have lost heavily in their undertakings to date and they will hardly attempt ito produce another show for the pubic's benefit. The Bridgeport Athletic & Amusement Co. stopped holding any shows since the bouts had to be staged indoors and for their decision, followers of the game say they were very wise.
 Some followers of the game say the New York shows are taking all the interest out of local bouts. Every week a good battle is staged at Mad1' son Square Garden and those who want to watch the topnotchers per form go down there. In Bridgeport only second raters can be obtained and the followers of boxing want to see the big stuff for the low prices.

 McCann was told by the sport writers how pleased they were to have him come back to Bridgeport and he said he was equally pleased to be here again. When he was manager of the Bridgeport club be- fore, McCann had a corking team and later went to New London where he turned out a pennant winner in the Eastern. s
 The new pilot said that when he resigned from the Cincinnati Reds as scout for that team, the officials were sorry to have him leave and they told him so, but he liked Bridgeport and the prospects of becoming man ager of the ball club so he ended his term of service with the Reds. Me Cann'S appointment meets with the general approval of the fans through out the city as we'll as in the circuit.

COMMITTEE REPLIES
TO COCKRAN'S SPEECH
Quotes From Congressman on His
League of Nations
Remarks.

CHICAGO. October 81 (by the Asso-
ciated Press).-Republican national com
mittee headquarters have issued
statement attacking the stand of W.
Bourke Cochran, who is now on a
speaking trip in favor Of the league OF
nations The republican statement
charges that Mr.. Cochran appeared be-
fore the Senate foreign relations COM
mittee on August 80, 1919, to oppose the
league.
"Mr. Cochran at that time appeared
as the champion of his race and deliv-
cred one Of the most urgent pleas in
support of the recognition OF the Irish
republic" the statement says. "And IN
doing so he denounced the league of ma
tions as proposed by Mr.. Wilson and de-
nounced by an inference the President
himself
The statement quoted the official rec
ord of Mr.. Cockran's plea before the
Senate committee as saying:
II do not want to charge deliberate
that betrayal of the cause for which
this war was fought and won will be
the result if the purpose Of those who
negotiated this treaty shall be accom-
plished.
rs there in that treaty one single
word of which any American should be
proud? Does it liberate single people
who seek emancipation, except as an
act of vengeance against the countries
who were oyerthrown"
Again he is quoted as saying:
"The league of nations here proposed
is abominable, an attempt to use the
conscience Of Christendom to sanctify
and perpetuate wrongs which morality
and Justice condemn"

I. DU POINT TELLS COX
Powder Investigation Would Re-
veal Truth to Democratic
Candidate.

WILMINGTON, Del, October I'll
Pierre 8 ,du Pont. president Of the du
Pont Powder Company, in a statement
last night, said that Gov. Cox had
done the company. as well as Cole
man du Pont. gross injustice" in
reierring In an address at Cleveland
saturday night to the methods en-
ployed by the republicans in collect
ing an alleged corruption fund of
S15,o0O,00O." Gov Cox was quoted as
having said that Coleman du Pont
headed the republican propaganda en-
terprlse and declared he was not sur
prised that Mr.. du Pont. "a member of
family which had profited by mu-
nitions manufacture" was opposing
him, in view of his world peace advo-
cacy.
The statement said, in part:
1t Is almost unbelievable that you
did not know the untruth of your as
sertlon, or that you should seek to in
Jure a man by statement subject to
easy investigation as to it's truth.
Your statement does gross injus-
tice to Mr.. Coleman du Pont because
1t is absolutely untrue. You do gross
-er Injustice to those who were re-
sponsible for the furnishing Of pow
der during the recent war by your in
situations that their preparedness in
saving the nation in its hour of need
was planned for profit and is still he
ing planned in the hope Of future

LANDSLIDE BIGGER
THAN IN 1901 HAYS
Republican Chairman Names
States Harding Will Carry
on Election Day.

NEW YORK, October II (by the
Associated Press).-Will H. Hays, re-
publican national chairman. yesterday
stated that in many normally demo-
cratic states, democrats had given W
hope of electing Cox and Roosevelt
and are now busy trading Candidate
Cox to try to save their senators"
Mr. Hays arrived here from Chicago
bringing with him the prediction that
every state west Of the Mississippi
would poll Harding majority. with
the possible exception OF Texas. Ark
ansas and Louisiana.
of states south of the MasonD Dixon
line. Mr.. Hays said. in a formal state
ment. the republican ticket would
carry Maryland, Tennessee. Kentucky,
West Virginia, and possibly North
Carolina. The solid SOUTH" with
three exceptions. and the three west
ern states, were all in which Mr..
Hays would concede that democratic
chances seemed better than republi-
can.
He said there was no doubt of sweep
ing republican victories in Illinois and
Indiana, declaring that his prediction
was made on as conservative a basis
as was his estimate that the repub-
lican majority in the recent Maine
election would be ''at least 10000"
numerical E9t1matcS.
Mr. Hays announced he would also
make public his numerical estimates
of republican majorities, state by
state a few days before election on
November 2.
THE west has been amused at the
effort of the opposition to try to de-
velop their campaign to one issue"
Mr.. Hays said. 1T has been amused
at the democratic misconception of
politics and the public mind.
Candidate Cox went out on his
own responsibility. with his own
managers. and conducted his cam
paign all over the west and middle
west. entirely dropping the Presi-
dent. This campaign was the most
dismal failure in the history of presi-
Dental candidates.
Hides Behind screen"
Desperately seeking to hide be-
hind a peace smoke SCREEN, which
is as counterfeit as the 1916 pledge
that he would keep us out of war,
they strive to develop a campaign
strategy on one issue. They propose
to settle this campaign in Europe.
when every taxpayer in America is
crying for a discussion of the means
for a better and more efficient and
ernment at home.
The democratic organization is en-
tirely demoralized in many OF the
states which are frequently demo-
cratic. They have given up the pres
idential election. They are saying
What's the use?' and are trading
Candidate Cox to try to save their
senator's 1t will be a bigger repub-
lican landslide than 1904"

MeAD00 RAPs SENATORS.
Declares They Have Mangleo and
Distorted Part.

TWIN FALLS, Idaho. October 2f.-
William G. McAdoo, former Secretary
OF the Treasury, in an address here
on the league of nations scathingly
denounced those senator's and pori-
tclans who. he said. have distorted
ana mangled the original pact beyond
it's authors recognition. He char
acterized the league as the momen-
tous question of the time, not merely
as an International matter. but as one
that vitality concerns "our domestic
affairs" He designated it as the
transcendent' question of humanity,
and asked his audience to listen, not
as republicans, not as democrats, but
as citizens interested in the welfare
OF the country we all love above
everything else.''
The former cabinet officer attacked
what he termed the "vacilfating
policy" Of the republican candidate
and questioned his ability to devise
any association as practical as that
brought back from Paris by President
Wilson. ~
