Polish Delegates Made Ill BY Un-
sanitary Conditions at Minsk.
BY Associated Press.
Warsaw. Aug. 3o.--Whilc Riga has
been agreed UPON by the Polish and
Russian soviet governments as the
place for future peace negotiations,
1t was said at the foreign ministry
late last night that no s.ai.a had
been received from the Letvias, gov
ernment regarding the Poles ro-
quest for permission to hold the con-
ference in Riga.
A wireless message from Minsk
says that members OF the Polish
peace delegation, and those who ac-
companied 1t, are becoming Ill be-
cause OF the unsanitary conditions
under which they are compelled to
exist.
Among those who are sick is
Maurice Pate, of Denver a member
OF the American relief administra-
tion. The message says that he is
seriously Ill. The Denver man ac-
companied the delegation, together
with Herschel Walker, of Phila-
delphia. another relief worker, to
discuss with the soviet representa-
tives a proposal for feeding war;
stricken children.
The message says that conditions
grow worse each day. The dele
gates are permitted to walk only in
certain parts OF Minsk and only at
certain hours. The advisory experts
and the newspaper correspondents
are virtually interned on the
premises occupied by the delega-
tion.
The delegates are prohibited to,
read the numerous soviet pladards
at the street corners, by which thu
sbolsheviki constantly endeavor to
incite the population against mem
bers Of the Polish party. The only
newspapers allowed the delegates
are soviet communist organs.
It is physically impossible for the
delegates to continue their work
owing to the conditions. according
to the message.

HEAvYwEIoHTs IN FINE SHAPE
Miske Forced to Lay Off Gloves Few
Days-Dempsey Ready to Go.


By Associated Press.
Benton Harbor, Mich, Aug. 3d.
Because Of a fear Of growing stale.
Billy Miske, challenger for the
worlds heavyweight championship.
planned today to drop all work with
the gloves, for a. day at least, and
may be compelled to suspend boxing
for two or three days asa result of
opening up an old wound over his
left eye in training yesterday. Miske
suffered a slight cut when a negro
sparring partner butted him, but the
injury. his trainer said, is not like
ly to bother him seriously.
Miske said his condition was an
preaching a fighting edge too rap
idly, and he plans to taper off, work
ing mainly to increase his speed.
Manager jack Reedy said the chal-
lenger would end hard work on Fri
day.
Dempsey Is rapidly rounding into
condition. The champion was so
eager for work yesterday that he
boxed the last four rounds of his
glove session in heavy rain. Pro-
moter F'itzsimmons announced TODAY
that Walter III. -Eckersall,s of Chicago,
has been agreed upon as the official
time keeper for the Labor Day
matches. The question Of referee
probably will not be settled until
Friday or Saturday. Several promi-
~nent ring officials are under consid-
eration.

On the industrial reconstruction of

zoo. 900 workere now are employed In
French mills and 2,627 of tho s:50s
factories destroyed In the war have

the destruction in mill centers was
