are expected from Austria.
The New York delegation is not ex-
pected to arrive until tomorrow after
noon. Special trains are to be run
from Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto and
London, not to mention Chicago and
neighboring cities of the United States
OF recent years there have been two
memorable match races, both held at
Laurel, Md, one In which Hourless beat
Omar Khayyam and another in which
Eternal took the measure of Billy
Kelley.
There is no doubt the Man O. War
Sir Barton duel should pale either of
these struggles. for this is not only an
intersectional but an international race
as well, and as such arouses world
wide attention, heated discussion and
perhaps the greatest sums of money
staked on single trial of thorough
bred speed.

Les Batfailes Ont Som

a La Veille du Combat
By Fred Hawthorne

Reports at midnight last night, culled
by our trustiest sleep walkers, were to
the effect that Georges Carpenter and
Battling Levinsky were sleeping peace
fully and happily on the penultimatc
eve of their twelve-round battle to-
morrow night at the Jersey City Ball
Park.
Carpenter, according to reports, was
evidently dreaming of success and
wealth, for, ever and anon, in his sleep,
he murmured: "Ah garcon, another or
der of re legs of frogs sill vous plait.
celebrate tonight, for l knocked re
Battleur for re COOL"
Levinsky's dreams were just as rosy
apparently. Three times he ordered
encores of gefulte fish and motzas and
smacked his lips over the kimmcl as he
whispered: Bring that guy, Car-pen-
ter, back by me again; I'll make another
COOL by him"
Yesterday morning N. Georges did
four miles on the roads near Summit,
n. j., and then returned to his training
quarters and ripped OFF twelve rounds
with three sparring partners in the
afternoon. Joe Jeanette. Marcel
Thomas and Panama Joe Cans each
took the French light heavyweight on
for four rounds, and each decided four
rounds was plenty.
Carpenter did not rest between
rounds, but filled in the one minute in
tervals by shadow boxing about the
ring. Gus Wilson. Georges's trainer,
declared that a streak Of lightning
would look like crippled snail com

Windsor for Big Classic
Bv W. |. Macbeth

DETROIT Oct. 10.-To night, at sew
oral of the leading hotels Of this fair
metropolis Of the Wolverine State, men
of supposed sound horse sense and
judgment were accepting odds Of 7 to
against the chances Of Commander J.
X. L. Ross's four-year- old colt Sir
Barton, which is to meet Man O. War
in special race at the Ken,worth
track near Windsor, just across the
river, on Tuesday afternoon.
1t is doubtful tonight, if any there
be so sacrlegiors as to wager on the
Sabbath, if one could be found more
venturesome than to stipulate machine
odds on the result of the turf classic
Of the century. Sir Barton was more
or less Of a known quantity in these
parts, or rather to the clientele which
r0tronizes racing in the Dominion.
Man O. War Unknown
Man O. War was the unknown. His
fame as reflected to these provincial
parts lost some Of its lustre, They had
an idea out this way that the eiTete
East was blowing its horn bit and
that the wonderful three -year-old son
Of Fair Play was, after all, but mortal
in an equine way
Fifteen minutes before the opening
race at Kenilworth Saturday afternoon

erstwhile Sir Barton optimism, for

with Sir Barton in the easiest imagi-
nablc fashion in 2:07 3-5 1t was a
fight for his head ell the way. He just
rolled along under triple wraps for the
first mile, and even in the last quar-
ter, when he was allowed to step a bit
he was still fighting for his head.
Sir Barton worked in the morning,

started to work on Levinsky to-mor-
row evening.
Aevinsky did twelve miles in his road
work about Central Park and then fin
ished off at Grupp's Gymnasiurl with
the skipping rope, handball and the
weight machines. The Battling One
looked to be in prime shape and showed
up as very fast against Joe yelling
and Sailor Petroskey, his sparring
partners.
Tex O'Rourke, of the International
Sporting Club. which is conducting the
bout, and Jack Frost, president Of the
park the fght is to be held, announced
last night that every detail had been
attended to in connection with the bout
and the seating and transit arrange
ments.
Special trains will be run by the
Jersey Central Railroad and by the
Hudson tubes to Summit Avenue, Jer-
sey City, where special motor busses
will run direct to the grounds, in ad-
dition to frequent trolley service.
The first bout will be started at s
o'clock tomorrow evening, with Kew
pie Collander and Babe Asher, ban
tams, in the ring. Then frankie
Burns and Patsy Johnson, feather
weights. will do their little act, to be
followed by Marcel Thomas, the
French welterweight, and Ted Kid
Lewis, of England, in the semi-final. 1t
is planned to start the main bout at 10
o'clock.
O'Rourke announced yesterday that
the advance sale of tickets had been
very large, but that there still were

Yesterdays game was the last in
which the players share in the re-
ceipts. If Cleveland wins the series
each player on the American League
Club will receive approximately
S4,204. While, if Brooklyn wins,
the National League athletes will
get only S3,95l each. The discre-
pancy is due to the fact that Brook
lyn's share must be split among
twenty-sevcn men, while only
twenty-five Indians will be re-
warded, one share in addition going
to Mrs. Chapman, wido'1 OF Ray
