SUPREME Confidence REIGNS In
CAMPS OF BOTH PUGILISTS AS
HOUR OF CONTEST DRAWS Near
~ will Go Into the Ring
Prepared to Make the
Supreme Effort of My
Life" Challenger Says.

By GEORGES CARPENTER,
challenger:
When / go into the ring against
Jack Dempsey, l will be prepared
to make the supreme effort of my
fighting career,
you can also say for Georges"
added Trainer Wilson, that he is
in condition to fight great battle;
that he will bring all the expert
ence of fourteen years training to
bear. and that If Dempsey defeats
him, America can claim a real
champion, for Georges Carpenter
is a great fighter and to beat him
will, indeed. be an accomplish
ment. We have no excuses to
make and we believe that victory
will be ours"
BY FRANCOIS DESCAMPS,
manager of Carpenter, speaking
through Tex Rlckard:
/ confidently expect Georges Car
pentier to win the worlds heavy
weight championship from Demp-
sey inside of five rounds. Georges
has trained faithfully and is in the
best condition of his life. His long
ring experience has fitted him for
any form of attack and every mem
ber Of Carpenters camp, from
Georges himself down to the man
at the gate, is supremely confident
of the outcome. Georges Carpen-
tier will be the new champion be-
fore night falls Saturday.
PROMOTER RICHARD:
The heavyweight championship
between Jack Dempsey and Georges
Carpenter is the most successful in
every respect that I have ever at
tempted to promote The arena is
the largest ever built for boxing
contest.
The advance sale of seats indi-
Gates the largest paid attendance
for any event of this type. The
gate receipts and the purse to be
divided between the two principals
establishes a new record in this
respect.
The bout itself has created
greater interest, both national and
International, than any other ring
contest of any weight After the
promotion of the Johnson -Jeffrie>
match at Reno in 1910, thought
that no future bout could equal that
battle in general interest. but q
short span Of eleven years has pro-
duced another heavyweight title
bout greater In every respect.
/ base this statement upon the
number Of applications for press
seats and the fact that virtually
every country of the world will be
represented in one manner or an
other at the ringside.
Aside from the usual and trifling
annoyances in connection with a
promotion of this magnitude,
everything has moved smoothly.
Both Dempsey and Carpenter and
their managers have proved easy
and reasonable to deal with from
a business standpoint. / sincerely
hope that the bout will prove an
interesting one for the spectators
to watch; a benefit to the wonder
ful sport of boxing and without
unpleasant aftermath.
Without preference or choice as
to the principals, can only say:
May the best man win in sports
manlike manner.

LAST OBSTACLE
To FIGHT TODAY
IS OUT OF WAY
Grand Jury Refuses to Re-
turn An Indictment Sought
BY the International Re-
form Bureau.

Jersey City, N. j.. July 1.-The
Hudson county grand jury late
today declined to return an indict-
ment sought by the International
Reform bureau 10 stop the Demp-
sey- Carpenter bout here tomor-
row. This was regarded as the
last obstacle to the match.
Fight witnesses we're heard, their
testimony taking up an hour and
a half The jury deliberated only
ten minutes before rendering its
decision against an indictment.
Defeated in what they had an
nounced would be their last step
to stop the bout the reformers on
leaving the court house said they
would seek the indictment and im-
peachment of Governor Edwards If
they found the bout had turned out
to be a fight and that they also
would work for repeal of the state
boxing law.
Dr. Crafts said:
"I'm too old a hand in legal mat
ters to tell what I told the grand
jury but as lawyers say, we have
now perfeCted our record. We have
done all we can to warn the gov
ernor the boxing commission, and
the public that the law is being
violated We will have competent
men there who will Judge whether
in their opinion the contest is a
prize fight or a boxing exhibition.
If It turns out TO be prize fight
we will Immediately take steps to
have the governor indicted and to
have the other officials punished
for allowing and then not stopping
the fight. Every person who at
tends that fight is subject to ar
rest"
When Governor Edwards was In
formed OF DR.. Crafts statements
he said:

TRADE BALANCE TURNS
IN FAVOR OF FRANCE

Paris, July 1.--For the first
since 1905 the foreign trade balance
has turned in favor of Franco.
Provisional, but approximately ex-
act, figures for the first three
months of this year show total ex-
ports of 4.S11, 100000 francs and
imports of 4,781,000,0 900.
The importations of France be-
fore the war, excepting in 1905, ran
from 20 to rs per cent higher than
the exports.
An unexpected showing is that
France exported during the three
months 262 per cent more manu-
featured articles than in the first
three months of the last normal
year before the war.

ADMIRAL SIMS.

Whatever else may be true of Admiral Sims, he can
not be charged with lodging. When he says anything he
says it in language which can be understood. and which
cannot be misihterpreted. When he gets through those
who have heard him know exactly what he means. In
several instances he has expressed himself in a manner
which, to an observer, seems improper in one who holds
such an important place in the service of his country, a
position which. because of its actual relation to his gov
and because of the popular Interpretation Of
that relation. places reserve in speech among the highly
desirable qualities, If not among the cardinal virtues.
Exactly what Admiral Sims said in his London speech
is a matter of some doubt. Certain sentences attributes
to him have been published on this side. and they have
been the basis for demands for his being called to ac-
count. From the information which has gone across the
water to him he believes that he has been misquoted.

LEFT ERICSSON WAS FIRST.

In an editorial a few days ago the statement was
made in the Herald that the Great Charter wrung from
King John was signed even before the hardy Morse
men under Left Ericsson first sighted the western con-
stinent. H. c. Johnson of Osnabrock points out that this
ss wrong. that Greenland was discovered in the year
1913 and the colonies settled there in the year 986, and
that fourteen years later Left Ericsson discovered
America, which would be the year 1000, more than 2lp
years before the signing of Magma Charta.
Mr.. Johnson is correct. The comparison of dates
was made inadvertently and the Herald is glad to re-
Sceive this correction from its Osnabrock correspondent.
