 LONDON. July 2.-Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler. president of Colum- bia University. has emphasized to all inquirers here that he had not come to Europe as President Hardings Colonel House, and that any sugges- tion to that effect was preposterous
 In an informal talk today. Dr. But Ter said:
 Ambassador Harvey told the Pil- grims and the world of America S definite decision. But, despite his assurances that 1t was absurd to believe that the United States might yet be beguiled into the league, have found many in England still cherishing the idea that this is not really the case These people cite as justification of their views letters they have received in considerable numbers from friends of the league in the United States, telling them that the reported rejection of the league is nothing but political by play, and that in the end the United States will certainly join. I am of the opinion expressed by some promi- nent British spokesmen that any mis- understanding on this point is mis- chievous. I have therefore concluded that the best thing to do is to tell such folks simply and bluntly that Harvey spoke the truth and I'm doing Q

PARIS, July 2.-Consternation fell of Georges Carpentier was signalled with white lights by airplanes, on newspaper screen and by theater an- nouncements.
 The crowds, absolutely dumbfound- ed. refused to believe the first bulle- tin telling of Carpenter being knocked out. The Associated Press flash. received at S:32 o'clock tonight, was the first to reach Paris.
 Mime. Carpenter listened to the progress of the fight in the Petit Pa risien. Her optimism did not fail until the fourth round. When the word came that her husband had taken the count, she turned away and said:

 Hundreds of thousands of persons were standing before bulletin boards on the boulevards. Tt cant be true.'' said many of them when the knock out was announced, but the succeed ing flashes from Jersey City soon convinced the Parisians of the downfall of their hero.
 Paris became saddened and de- pressed, men, women and children stood in silence while they read how Carpenter had been completely out classed and outfought.
 Six big army airplanes speedily ap- peared over the Place de Ia Concorde and the boulevards, displaying large white lights as signal of defeat.
 President Millerand and his family at Elysee palace received a series oi bulletins, sent by the government wireless station at the Eiffel tower Premier Mriand and the other min- isters heard the news at their offices

 RINGSIDE, JERSEY CITY, July 2. More than ninety thousand men and women today saw Jack Demp- sey of the New World knock out Georges Carpenter of the Old World in the fourth round of their cham pionship bout.
 The entry of the principals was dramatic. The main bout had been advanced ahead of the sixth pre- liminary. and the crowd was unpre- pared. There was heard overhead the roar of motors and two airplanes circled round. Many were casting an eye aloft when, unheralded, Car pentier appeared.
 In his gray silk robe he seemed as care-free as if he were just stepping from his bath. His famous smile curled his lips as he climbed onto the canvass covered square on which he later was to meet defeat. He turned to the crowds. clasped his hands and shook them in apprecia- tion of applause.
 Then as unconcerned as a school boy spinning top he took his chair and began bandaging his hands, now | and then watching maneuyers of the airplanes.
 Then came Dempsey, preceded by a floral horseshoe sent him by his admirers. He received rousing ap- plause. Never was there greater contrast between two fighters-the blonde, clean -shaven Frenchman in his silk bathrobe, and towering over him big, rk-browed, bearded Dempsey. Today's crowd was sur prisingly orderly. It was like an or dinary theater audience until the main bout started
 During the fight, however, there was a constant roar from all parts of the giant saucer. Women yelled with the men, and now and then there was a panic stricken shriek as a blow drew blood
 l Cheer followed cheer for Dempsey in the first round when he sent Car pentier to the ropes-for Carpenter in the second when he outboxed the champion-for both in the third as Dempsey plugged away for victory and the F'renchman fought a brave but losing fight
 Then the knockout. There were | wild cheers for the champion. but round Carpenters corner clustered supporters, loyal even to the last | As the European idol staggered down l the steps after shaking hands with his conqueror there was awaiting him a crowd who patted him on the shoul- ders as he moved to his dressing l room.
 Dempsey. too. had his loyal allies and they accorded to him the homage due a conquerer.
 The rush to the gates when the l fight was over will never be forgot ten by those who were in it. The human tide flowed for what seemed hours before the doors were reached.

 We noticed that there was some. thing the matter with Georges wrist when he came into the dressing room after the fight said Wilson, but he assured us there was nothing but a sprain. It began paining him on the journey home.
 Georges said he hurt the wrist in the second round when he hit Demp- sey on the jaw. but that he did not think he had broken it"
 Dr. Connolly's report follows:
 This is to certify that I examined Georges Carpentier after his fight with Jack Dempsey and found him to be suffering from a compound frac- ture of the metacarpal bone of his right thumb and slight wrist sprain. These injuries have rendered his right hand useless

RINGS1DE. JERSEY CITY, N. J., July 2---Jack Dempsey is still heavy weight pugilistic champion of the world A crushing right swing from the fist of the American fighter shat tered the titular aspirations of Georges Carpenter in the fourth round of the so-called battle of the century, here this afternoon. The pile driving blow landed flush upon the jaw of the Frenchman, flooring him for the second time in trifle more than a minute of fighting in the final decisive round. Although he had staggered to his feet after the initial knockdown. he was unable to survive the second knockdown and was motionless when Referee Harry Erfle folled off the fatal ten counts.
 Although the knockout punch was driven to Carpenters jaw. the way to Dempsey's victory had been paved by a continual bombardment of blows which landed on every section of the Frenchman's body Each swing. Jap and uppercut scored to the stomach, ribs and sides contributed to the sew ing up process of the speedy Carpen- tier
 Tn addition. clubbing right which landed flush on the back of Georges neck in the third round played an inn portanf part in his defeat. The Frenchman folded over in an attempt to protect his body, left the back or his neck exposed and Dempsey with the fair target in front of him drove down a terrific slam to Carpenters s vertebrae.
 After the knockout the Frenchman stated fin his dressing room that this punishment was the cause of his pu- rilistic downfall. He said that the punch stung his entire physical ana mental makeup and he was there after unable to carry on any effective

danger defying work during the world war
 Dempsey is Fighter
 Dempsey, as tine winner, ran true to his fighting form. Although Car pentier struck the first blow of the encounter, a flying left to the head, Dempsey never at any time backed up or showed any inclination to avoid trading blows with his opponent. While the champion bored in at every opportunity, he devoted as much of his attention as was possible to close in fighting. Rights and left were steadily driven home to Carpenters s body, alternated at times by drives, jabs, hooks and cuffs to the French mans face, jaw and head.
 For the first round Carpenter did not appear to feel the effects of this punishment. He fought in and out at close quarters, using chiefly a right swing or drive to Dempsey's S face and jaw with an occasional shift of the left 10 the body.
 Most of the body blows Dempsey blocked or partly checked with el- bows and forearms, but he was not able tc protect his face as well. Time and again Georges shot over his right to Dempsey's face and in the second round when he turned loose the heaviest batteries of his blows, it appeared as though the champion might be forced to assume defensive attitude. The pause in Dempseys at tack, however, was due more to sur prise ard fluster at the savageness of his opponents rally. After a few sec onds of indecision he gathered him. self together and although the round was undoubtedly Carpenters on ag- gressiveness and clean blows landed. there was not the slightest evidence that Dempsey had been hurt by Car pentier's punches.
 Carpentier Helpless
 He shot out of his corner at the bell for the third round with every evil dence of an intention to finish the battle. With a menacing scowl on his dark features, he followed Car pentier about the ring as the latter side stepped and ducked the lunges in an endeavor to corner the chal- lenger. Crouchfng low and with body and fists swinging from side to side he crept after Carpenter until he caught him on the ropes near g neutral corner and began the batter ing which presaged the end There was little question in the minds ol the more expert among the spectators as to the ultimate outcome
 Carpentier, with his speed of foo' gone. confidence shattered, and witf blood running from his nose anf mouth, and a gash over his cheel bone, looked like a hunted animal.
 Dempsey, like an aveaging Meme sis, punished carpentier withou mercy.
 The bell at the end of the thiri round found Carpenter in a semi- helpless condition on the ropes ant the gong saved him from a knockou at that point.
