The precious objects in the collection
called "the treasure of the Golden Fleece"
would need a volume to describe them
fully. One Of the most valuable objects is
the collar or "potence" of the herald of the
order, which bears enameled medaliions
emblazoned with the arms of the original
knights. This is not only valuable on ac-
count Of the great amount of gold and
precious stones It contains, but because
1t is q Ane specimen Of Flemish art of the

this object sayss
"This magnificent gold chain, styled the
'Potence,' was worn by the king.st-arms

rister, p. Fisher Williams. After nearly a
years investigation, during which they
delved into historical records running back
for 500 years, they decided that the treas
ure of the Golden Fleece passed by the
universally recognized laws Of inheritance
to the head Of the Hapsburg family, now
represented by ex-Emperor Karl and that
there was no ground for awarding the
treasure to Belgium.
But the tribunal made no attempt to
restore the treasure to ex.Emperor Karl.
That was left as an Austrian internal ar.
fair, to be settled between the new Aus
trian Government and Its former monarch

OF It's value? II does not seem probable,
although there is no doubt that he will

poverty.
The new Austrian Government is some
what Socialistic, and Is also regarded as
being not far from bankruptcy. 1t will
probably settle any controversy with the
ex-Emperor In the most favorable manner
to itself.
There are good grounds for regarding
the treasure OF the Golden Fleece as semi.
public property, evidenced by the fact that
It's most precious possessions have been
kept In the Imperial Treasury with the
crown Jewels.
The Austrian Government asserts that
the crown Jewels are public property, paid
for with the taxes and revenues of the
Austrian people. II also charges that the
ex-Emperor Karl, In his hasty flight from
Vienna after the revolution, carried away
surreptitiously some Of these crown
Jewels.
The value Of the jewels carried away
has been recently estimated at ST.

The procession of ninety-four wagons
started off on a hong and circuitous route
to Vienna just In time to escape q raid by
q dashing band of French revolutionists.
That was In 1892. Since then the treasure
of the order has been carefully guarded at
Vienna. Some Of the more precious oh.
Jects were kept in the Imperial Treasury
at Vienna with the crown jewels, where
they could be better guarded. The other
objects, such as the throne and chains OF
the knights, pictures, armor, tapestries
and so forth were in the chapter house OF
the order, where the Emperor presided at
the admission Of new knights.
Then came the catastrophe OF the great
war, which completely wrecked Austria
and the very old Hapsburg family. Under
the peace treaty 1t was provided that Aus
tris should restore to various countries
the vast art collections which she had
wrested from them by military and politi-
cal pressure. This was principally de-
signed to restore to Italy the art treasures
OF which Austria had stripped her at var
ious times.
Under this provision, however. Belgium
laid claim to the treasure Of the Golden
Fleece on the ground that II originally had
its headquarters In Belgium and was es-

to consider this curious claim. II con-

A historic example belonging to one of the

The treasure contains a great collection

OLD CHAMPION SAYS
LEONARD SLIPS

NEW YORK, July 29.-Benny Leon
ard is still the lightweight champion
but he is slipping back to the "out
pointing type of title holder in the
opinion Of many of the experts VINO
saw him shade Lew Tender.
GAS long as Leonard can defeat all
his contenders on points he will be the
champion, but he will not rank with
the smuggling champions who held the
title ahead of him. Jack McAuliffe,
the retired undefeated champion said
today.
Leonard boxes just as well as he
ever did. He punches accurately but
he is losing steam because he has TO
dry out too much to make the weight.
He is not strong enough at l35 pounds
to knock out rugged fighter of the
Tender type.
"Jack Britton hasn a punch left
but he gets by on his brains and a
skilled pair of boxing hands. LeonaE
can do the same thing until he meets
an opponent who can t be ratified by a
line Of demoralizing chatter.
"Tendler is the only outstanding
contender in the lightweight division
and Leonard will have to fight him
again If he wants to earn more big
money"

United Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK, July 29-Alec Mclean
veteran fight trainer, who handled
Jack Johnston in his prime is one OF
the experts who believes that Harry
Wills has good chance to take the
heavyweight title from Jack Dempsey
"Wills has every physical advant
age in his favor and if he can use his
strength properly, he ought to win. "
Strength ism t the all important fact
or, however. jess Willard is the big
gest and strongest man in the ring, yet
the feeble little Dempsey mauled him
in Toledo and he II probably ruin him
if he ever meets him again,
Johnny Dundee the only junior cham
pion extant. has one of the greatest
records in ring history. He has been
one of the busiest fighters that ever
put on the gloves.
In 12 years of battling he has en-
gagged in 566 fights and he has met
every leading fighter under the light
heavyweight division.
The Italian has cashed in large on
his labors and has been successful in
a venturesome little side line of rae
ing horses.
Tex Rickard is ready to produce a
birth certificate that Jess Willard is
only 39' years of age and is therefore
not effected by the 40 year old ban
of the New York boxing commission.
The real difficulty will be coming in
getting some legal papers to show that
Willard is good fighter.
The general run of opinion seems to
be that affidavits will be necessary at
coroner's inquest if Dempsey and
Willard eyer meet again.
Rickard says that Willard didn 7
have a chance at Toledo, but he fails
to describe the process by which Big
Jess would have a chance in secon.l
meeting between the pair.
