countcred Jcnrics and was kayoetl.
 Only a little more than two years were given to Bob Fitzsimmons in which to enjoy the glamour and the gold that accompany a heavyweight champion. The honor was knocked from his sturdy shoulders by James J. Jeffries on June 9, 1899, at Coney Island. '~
 Jeffries had graduated from a boiler making establishment into the roped square with two rugged fists that pounded F1tzsimmons into submission in i rounds, and which enabled the new champion to stick at the head of the fistic procession for many years.
 Jeffries moved cautiously in the ring until his ire was aroused, whereupon he created a thunderbolt with one of his fists.
 The first of these titanic wallops was uncorked by the Californian in the second round. It landed upon Fftzsimmons' jaw and Fftz landed on the floor. He was up and doing in 3iffy. however. and continued his whirlwind attack. The Californian was the bigger man and accepted all the punishment that the champion could infiict.
 Fitzsimmons became weary from his fncessant through ineffective efforts and in the tenth round Jeffries knock ed him to the floor twice. In the next round the Californian landed a dipping drive over the champions heart and followed it through with rights and fefts to the jaw. These blows dazed Fftz and Jeff sent him down for the full count with 0 crushing right hand blow to the chin.

ULTLMATUM TO GAMBLERS.
Dreyfuss Takes Steps to Keep Bettors
 From Pirates Grounds,

Pittsburgh, June 9.-Gambling on the baseball games played at Forbes Field is going to stop if it is necessary to bar every known professional bettor from the grounds, President Barney Dreyfuss of the Pittsburgh National league baseball club announced here yesterday.
 'I am going to have men at the gates,'' said MT. Dreyfuss, with in structions to stop every gambler who comes up. There has. been a lot of gambling at the field for more than a week. and I am determined that it shall stop. I have complained to the police but they don't seem to take the matter seriously md now I am going to take it into my own hands,

 It did not improve my temper for him to speak thus. so I fought fast and furious. Papke, a master at in lighting as was Klaus, plunged at me. banging away at my mid section and all the while l was striving to get to him. The bell ended the round while was still in rage.

It was anothe mad stroke. for Papke completely outciassed me at a game he had been practicing q lifetime and had not even tried. Then I sud- denly shifted my course and began boxing at long range.
 The change surprised and mysti- fcd my antagonist. Himself a noted boxer al 1ong-range, as we'll as a hur- ricane infighter. was non- plused by my speed. But he was no easy mark for my fists. I can assure you that he was landing hard and often. He used q fearful right uppercut that seemed US though it would lift my head from my neck. but still knew was gain

 We fought at a furious pace. know I came near to knocking him out and I am more positive that he nearly did so with me, for several times I could feel myself turning green with sickness after one of his brutal uppercuts struck me.
 At the beginning of the twelfth round I was almost in d faint. I had taken a turkish bath before going to the ring and had otherwise punished myself in trying to reduce my weight to the middleweight limit. Therefore I was weak. Papke exerted himself to utmost when he saw my knees sink in the twelfth after a punch. I stag gered back to my corner to wait for the thirteenth, practically a beaten man.

Please do not try for victory now But had promised Descamps when I entered the ring. with Papke that nothing would make me give up the combat and threatened that if he re- peated his actions against Klaus I would quit fighting forever.<I I remind ed him of this when he protested against my continuance. He was heartsick. There was sadness in his eyes. but I said to myself:
 Georges. you must not quit, even though he KlIs you"
 At the end of the sixteenth I could scarcely find Descamps in my corner. I barely heard him as he whispered in my ear. He again begged me to end the fight with the sponge, was sick and weary. I could not sec across the ring. so. broken heartcd. gave in to Descamps and he tossed in a sponge.

Their predictions, of course. were true. but right at the time I confess that I had serious doubts whether it was advisable 10 continue.

HAS FEM GUESSING


 -# E asr @fs E in Public Leads Some to Believe He has Something up His Sleeve. Manhasset, N. Y, June 9.-Folks hereabouts who would like to view Georges Carpentier going through his paces in secret training but can't have expressed the opinion that the chal- lenger is polling the public. They be- lfcve hs has more up his sleeve than he is willing to let the world in gener- al know about and that his somewhat ltstless attitude when boxing for news papermen is but a ruse.
 While the French. champion is not always listless before the critics, he has thus far refused to effectively demonstrate just how he is going to conduct his offensive campaign when he enters the ring with Dempsey.
 There is no doubt that the debonair prize-fghter is speedy, for he occa- sionally seems to forget himself when the newspapermen are watching him and displays a few of the traits that have made him famous.

CABINET DISCUSSES
BUSINESS REVIVAL
President and Associates Take Up
Wide Range of National Issues.
Mr.. Coolidge Present.

The meeting of the President with
his cabinet yesterday was the first in
nearly two weeks, and it was the first
one Vice President Coolidge has at
tended in more than a month. The
session, although of two hours dura-
ton, was not vitality important one,
according to White House informa-
ton. The principal discussion was the
business and economic condition of
this country and the possible steps
looking toward revival of general
prosperity.
Various problems incident to the
revival were considered. Among them
were railroad rates, transportation re-
lief, unemployment and other matters
concerning the general welfare Of the
nation. Practically everything "for
the good of the order" was consid-
cred. as one high government official
expressed it after the meeting.
Confidential advices from various
sections of the country are such as
to cause the White House to feel more
optimistic regarding the business fu-
ture of the country. There is a gen.
eral trend for the better, according to
these advices. s
