Spread Of the Gambling Spirit

The virulpnt contagious character OF
the speculative fever is strikingly Cx-
emplified in the recent wild dcmOn-
strations which have been witnessed in
the stock market, and which on two
occasions this week threatened TO de-
velop into a runaway affair. Ample
proof is to be found in the overcrowded
condition of the board rooms of the
various commission houses. The gam
bling spirit. however. is not alone con-
fined to various groups of stocks. but
has found outlet in other directions.
striking instance is the novelty of
trading in sugar futures, which has
reached quite considerable proportions.
1t started by Il guarded remark made
by well known sugar man n few
weeks ago. who hinted to some friends
there was a possibility of n good. rich
cleanup being made by specuiating in
sugar options. The tip spread rapidly
through the different clubs. and for the
first time in their history several of the
larger commission houses have been
making operations in sugar for some
Of their largest traders. There is no
telling where the disease will spread

VILLA MUST DEFEND.
TITLE In AMERICA
New Flyweight Champion
Notified to Return on Re-
ceipt of Challenge.
BY CHARLES F. MATHIsoN.

William Muldoon, chairman of the
New York State Athletic Commission,
yesterday put his stamp OF approval on
Pancho Villas new title as flyweight
champion OF America
The Filipino said Mr.. Muldoon.
has proved his worth as a boxer and
should make a commendable defender
of the class honors.'
When asked as to the affect on the
title IL Villa returned to the Philip
pines and remained for a long time,
Mr.. Muldoon said he had notified the
new champion that on, the receipt of a
challenge from a qualified boxer he
must return here within six months
and defend his honors.
Should Villa fail to return and de-
fend title within the period of six
months" said Mudoon. "the champion
ship would be declared forfeited and
new title competition inaugurated.
II am informed that Villa does not
intend to leave America for some time
to come, and that he Is determined to
give all the other flyweights an oppor-
tunity to try for the title. Indian Rus
sell Of Harrisburg is first in line, as
his challenge and check are in the
hands of the commission. frankie
Genaro, who holds decision on points
over Villa. will no doubt seek return
match Taken altogether. 1t looks like
lively season in the flyweight class.
Chairman Muldoon ordered a change
in the bout at Ebbets Field next Tues
day. Dave Rosenberg was matched to
box Mike O'Dowd and Mr.. Muldoon
decided that the veteran O'Dowd was
not fit opponent for the young and
powerful Rosenberg. The chairman
instructed the promoters to put Lou
Bogash against Rosenberg.
Clonie TAFT, who claims to be the
lightweight champion of Canada, has
been substituted for Lew Tender to
meet Pal Moran OF New Orleans in
fifteen round bout at the New York
velodrome next Monday night.
Tender injured his left hand In his
match with Ever Hemmer last MONDAY
night, but continued training until ne
was forced to quit boxing yesterday.
Andy Thomas and Bobby Michaeis
will meet at 15S pounds
Pilly Matthews. an English feather
weight, will make his first appearance
in an American ring tonight at the
Greensboro Sporting Club against Billy
De Foe. Matthews has reputation
for cleverness. and as DE Foe has an
established name for scientific work
the meeting should prove interesting.
The New York State junior feather
weight title will be fought for on
Thursday night for the first time ar
the opening entertainment at the
Garden. Joe Lynch and Jack Wore OF
Cleveland will be the contestants. They
will meet at 122 pounds and are sched-
uold to box fifteen rounds.
Charlie McKenna, former amateur
will meet Yussel Pearlstein in one OF
the preliminaries.
frankie Jerome and Terry Martin VIII
meet in the semi-final of twelve rounds
Frankie Genaro yesterday sent the
following telegram to Pancho villa:
Accept heartiest congratulations on
your victory You certainly showed
like a champion. However. don't forget
that / have one decision over you. Ana
until you even that score your tue
will always have that shadow hanging
over It, Until that happens, | am the
