NEW YORK. Feb. Ia.-(SpeciaL)-
Johnny Dundee has an ambition to
hold three ring titles. For years the
| friends of this capable little gladiator
regretted that he never had received n
shot at the lightweight title. Recent
Is ho acquired the 100 pound champion
ship. and now he Is out with chal-
lengcs to both Fcathcrweirht Cham
pion Johnny Kilbano and Lightweight
Champion Benny Leonard.
Dundee has posted $4,000 to guar
antoo that he viii make tho feather
weight limit for kiibanc. but therc r.
not much chance Of tho Cievelandcr
accepting. They met once years ago
when Kiibanc was mt his hest, and
Dundee held him 10 n draw In twcnty
rounds. Tho champion had such u
close call that he never would give
tho local man another chance.
Dundee never has had a match for
the lightweight championship. Willie
Ritchic. Freddy Welsh and tho pres
ent ,iiicholder all passed up Dundee.
They were willing to box him in no
decision affairs. for Dundee I. not
kuockerout. but they respected him
too much to take a chance with him
in decision bout.
Dundee has been begging Leonard
for n chance. He says that n he could
hold Leonard off whom tho latter came
III HN N9lAHNFlsiAE Nv N'hAb f'hh AttAF
at 1875 pounds. as he is sure Benny Is
not strong at that mark.
Dundee and Leonard always have
drawn capacity houses in their no de-
cision affairs. although the fans know
that tho light hitting Dundee could
not win tho title. \ match between
thcrn with decision Mt stake would
he great drawing card. but LEONARD
iwnvs rivas come other tho prefer
enrr. Dundee says Leonard always
tolls him he Is reservirs him for the
last But Dundee Ia getting tired of
waiting. as he realizes that he is not
getting any younger.
Tho thing that gets under pundee's
skin Is tho assertion that Leonard
holds him up'' in their no decision
affairs. Dundee Is very proud Of his
ability to stand up under hard knocks
and he gets good and sore when 1t IA
hinted that Leonard could put him out
if hc cared to do 80.
Say. where do you get off telling
people you can knock mo out?'' said
Dundee to Leonard before their last
meeting "You couldn't knock me out
=, a month of sundays and you know
1T. Tf you can stop me, why don't
you do it, There's nothing holding
YOU back tonight. Go ahead and knock
mo out. You know You can't do IT,
Dundee rivca Leonard credit for bo-
ing . Eront fighter, hu, hc says tho
champions hitting ability is over
rated.

SHARP ADVANCE IN
PRICE OF COTTON
End-June Figures Indicate Yield of
11,065,000 Bales

New York, July 3.-An extremely
rapid and .xcited advance followed
the publication of the governments
end-June crop figures in the cot
ton market here today. The report,
making the condition of the crop

$4,000 acres or 10 per cent more
than last years, and the indicated
crop 11,06g,000 bales, compared with
an indication of 8,433,00 at this
time last year, was not very far below
the average of private reports re-
Gently published. 1t was evidently
we'll below general expectations
however, and after comparatively
quiet morning, proved the signal for
heavy gin buying.
There was enough realizing to
momentarily check the advance
around the % cents level for Octo-
Der, but circulation of the figures
brought another buying wave and
prices reached the best levels late
in the afternoon, with all Deliveries
making new high records for the
season. October contracts which
had sold off to 20.74 on the decline
of early last week, sold at 1926
this afternoon, making an advance
fover 1-2 cents per pound from
the recent low level end of 178
points o. approximately $500 per
bale from the closing quotations Of
Saturday.
The buying on the small crop fig
urcs was said to be stimulated by
expectations that the report would
lead to heavy buying by foreign
spinners in Liverpool while the
American markets are closed to-
morrow, particularly if the rains
reported in the Southwest today
should continue. There was also
bullish comment on rumors that
ocean freight room had been en-
gagged last week for the shipment
of 10000 bales of cotton out of the
local stock to Europe, but the main
factor was the small crop indca-
tion and apprehensions of more
than the average deterioration in
condition on this summer because
