Chicago-Eaniel Willard, president
OF the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, met
q few Western rail executives In con
ference In tho Chicago club. presum
ably to discuss proposals for a basis
Of settlement Of the shipments strike
on certain roads by individual agree
ment.
So far as learned only a few OF the
western roads had planned to send rep
r~esentatives. II. r. Byram, president
OF the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
was known to be at the meeting. Botr
he and Mr.. Willard earlier had re
fused to discuss the conference and its
subject matter although Mr.. Byram
had said his company still would dis
cuss separate agreements IL a salts
factory settlement basis could be
found.
Some OF the shop crafts leaders al
ready were reported in the city fol-
preliminary conferences in connection
with the meeting of the union policy
committee OF 80 members.
1t seemed likely, according to one
railroad head, that the question Of the
strikers seniority rights still would
prove a stumbling block in efforts To
reach separate agreements.
Among the Western roads mentioned
in reports and rumors concerning re
vived efforts to find a basis for sep
arate settlements. were the Chicago
Milwaukee e. st. Paul and the Chicago

Wills Will
Meet Dempsey

NEW YORK, Feb. 4-There prom
iscs to be some lively doings in the
boxing world this week First of all
Jack Kearns will no doubt have a
heart-to-heart talk with Tex Richard
to ind out definitely Just what Tex
has in store for Jack Dempsey in the
shape OF an early match at the Garden
Following the confab between
kearns and Richard it is almost a
cinch that Kearns will be compelled
to pay some heed To the offer of Will
liam A. Brady, theatrical manager,
who stepped III the breach last week
with an offer OF 100000 for Dempsey
and Harry Wills.
Brady's attitude would indicate that
he knows his ground. He is too wise
bird to toss in a bid of 100000
snaxkers without knowing exactly
where he stands This same Billy
Brady is no novice at the fight game
He wants d battle between Dempsey
and Wills aud is willing to pay for
it. Together with all that he knows
that Wills right now shapes up as the
only man who appears to have Il
chance against the great white cham
pion.
The fans want that match and Brady
realizes it. He may have many OBJ
.tacles to overcome before he lands it,
but he has a good fighting spirit and
Hill no doubt force kearns and Demp-
,ey 10 show their hands or admit they
10 not want any part OF the big col

Brady knows that it is a good bust
c,s proposition and is arranging his
ans accordingly. His offer OF $780,

Stars have two-game margin in their
eight-game series, for they were vic
torious in another thrilling and SEN
sational game today. Charleston in
center, in the eighth inning, made
without a doubt one of the greatest
catches ever seen in this neck of the
woods. Irish Meusel got the big part
of his bat on one of Jeffries' fast ones,
so you know it was a hit. 1t looked
to be a sure homer. Charleston made
a desperate run for the sphere. The
fans as well as his teammates hoped
that ne would recover the ball, there

hands. The fans went wild over this
spectacular catch. Carr is speedily
developing into a first class outheldcr;
in fact, the Los Angeles papers say
that the Negro All-Stars has the
greatest outheld ever seen out here.
The game was won in the ninth inn
ing. With a score of to 4, McNair
led off with double, Hawkins sacri-
feed him to third, Patricia walked
Charleston and Mackey, and Mendez
walked to the plate. He looked over
two fast ones and swung at a curve
and missed. Carr went to the plate
determined to soak the sphere good
and plenty for the winning run, but
the first ball pitched TO him by Pertica
was wild. The fans went home after
seeing one OF the best played ball
games in the history of the park. The
game was hard fought from besinning
