 That started him.
 He came down to Omaha and studied under the Farmer" for sew era1 months and was pttted against a professional in Iowa. He won handily. But his expenses have precluded additional lessons and he went to Cuba, where he engaged in exhibition wrestling and once took a fling at Zbyszko. After the match he was convinced that he could lick the champion. The Nashville op- portunity came along and he went South to bring the title back North. At the end of three hours he had lost eight pounds, but had proven his ability to stand off the champion. When the match was called at 12 O clock, the story runs Charley cried in his disappointment, as he had been told he was to go to finish if it took all night.

The Farmer says that Hansen is just 80 per cent. perfect, and the old master believes that with the acquiring of the other 20 per cent. Hansen will be unbeatable. His style is the style of Gotch and of Burns. He is intelligent and he lives clean.

HARD COAL MINERS
TOFIGHT WAGE CUT
Are Willing, However, to Dis
cuss New Contract Period
Schedules.

Special Dispatch TO THE NEw YoaK HERALD.
SHAMoKIN. Pa. Jan. 17.-John L.
Lewis, International President OF the
United Mine Workers Of America, In a
speech before the Tri-District conven-
tion of the Anthracite miners in session
here to-day made It plain the coal
miners are not in temper to accept
wage reductions for the contract period
which starts April next.
The United Mine Workers OF Amer
Tea must not take one step backward. :"
declared Mr.. Lewis. They cannot az
ford to lose the improved living stand
ards and advantages which their organ
ization has gained.
'"rhe United Mine Workers do not de-
sire any cessation Of work after April.
We expect the operators to meet us to
arrange an agreement for the ensuing
contract period. and It Is our intention
70 make an honest effort to reach an
amicable settlement OF differences.
'I cannot understand why a reduction
OF wages is urged when It will not par
ticularly benefit the public In the cost
OF coal and will mean that every man.
woman and child in the mining industry
must lead lower standard of existence.
"The mine worker is not responsible
fer the price OF coal. His wages are rel
atively small In accordance with the
price tho public must bear. I was told
in Philadelphia by a friend that he paid
s14.75 for a ton of nut bituminous. The
miner did not get above 81 ton for
mining it. The cost did not exceed $1.75
at the mines. Who gets the rest of 1t?
''This talk of reducing wages OF
miners Is idle. The great minds must
devise some other method of correcting
things in the coal regions"
