DEMPSEY SET TO SCORE WIN IN ANY ROUND Champion So Strong He Can Almost Pick Time to Land Knockout, Belief. MAY BOX SOME, THOUGH By FRANK G. MENIvE, International News Correspondent. BENTON HARBOR. Mich . Sept. 4.—As the rival glove wigglers perform the final training camp rites, the conclusion Is: .Tack Dempsey will whip Billy Miske in their ten-round Labor day battle and do it easily, barring a fractured arm, a busted leg or some other ring misfortune. It wouldn’t be at all surprising if Dempsey stowed away the St. Paul speedster in five rounds or less. Dempsey se**in.-> trained to the minute and s>H?nis. as he says, to be in the most perfect fighting trim of his career. And Miske. according to those experts who ar> handling him. is absolute perfection as fighting men go. All of which makes it fifty-fifty on condition —and it's so-so as regards size, bulk, age and experience. But there the equal ends. Dempsey is the super slugger of the age. There was never another like him. Miske, in contrast, is a notoriously weak hitter, a warrior who has failed repeatedly to stow away meu whose jaws and whose bodies had only half the resisting power of the ’’Tiger of the Prize King." If the fight ever resorves itself into a slugging match —If Miske attempts to stand toe-to-toe with Depipsey—it means the beginning of the end of Miske's championship dreams. Miske's long forte is boxing and he s a marvel in that particular line. But marvelous as he Is, it wouldn't be at all surprising if Dempsev, electing to meet him at his own game, actually outboxed him. For Dempsey Is faster than the St. Paul whirlwind and all the while will be packing the power than can make one of ois jabs equal to the knockout force of the other man's haymaker. Miske can take a beating and come back for more. If It wasn't for that the prediction would be a knockout victory for Dempsey before the first session of the fighting has been concluded. Dempsev mav elect to box It with Miske for' a while, but that’s not likely. Dempsey knows that he can win if he can hit solidly a few times, and victory , s his aim. Why, then, should he play the other man's game, even though he may be superior at It. when he cgn play his own game that has not failed him In the last three years rarely in a crucial effort 1 Selection of a referee and the deciding as to whether Monday's swutfest will be a decision or a no-decision affair was all that remained today to complete arrangements for the ten-round mix up. State Boxing Commissioner ..om Bigger was to confer today with Jack Kearns, manager of Dempsey, and Js*k Reddy, representing Miske, on both subjects. This city yesterday began to receive Its first big delegations of fight fa:.s. with the result that the town is filled with summer rcsorters. farmers, fans and ■ports. . Benton Harbor is on L. ke Michigan and popular among Chicagoans as a watering place. Profiteering has been started by local merchants and has become so serious th-t Mayor Rossback has issued a warning to hotels and restauiants against what h terms “r bbery.” Private homes ere demanding 58 a day for a room.

After that I will be In readiness for a contest for the world’s title, If Dempsey Is willing." The champion was accompanied by eight trunks, which sheltered a brand new wardrobe. It Includes sixteen suits of the latest antumn tints five dozen of the ‘‘last word" neckties, the latest Rue de la Palx striped silk shirts and a rainbow dressing gown from the same maker who supplies Gabriel D'Annunzio. The approach to the railway station in Paris, at which be took the boat train, was packed with a cheering crowd. The speeial police detail had ita hands full protecting the champion when he arrived in a closed limousine. He was accompanied to the rail station by his wife, who was in tears. It Is their first parting. Mrs. Carpentier shouted as the train rolled out: "Good lack, Georges; give my loTe to America." BOXING EPSTEIN IN KOKOMO FEATURE KOKOMO, Ind., Sept. 4.—A boxing card that is attracting quite a bit of -ttention among Hoosler fans will be staged here by the local Elks lodge on Monday afternoon, when Solly Epstein of Indianapolis meets Johnny Rosner of New York in a ten-round feature. These*boys are bantams. In the seinl-wlndup Don Curley, Indianapolis lightweight, meets Tommy Teague of Muncie over the ten-round route. A battle royal wll open the bill. FIGHT SPECIAL LEAVES MONDAY The sale of tickets for the “Hoosier Special" Indicates that a large crowd of Indiana fight fans will make the trip to Benton Harbor Monday to witness the Miske-Dempsey championship go and the Wiggins-Greb “grudge” battle.

Reservations, Including the traveling expenses, meals and a seat in the arena, may be purchased at Stegemeier's, 17 North Illinois street. The special leaves here at 6 a. m. Monday. "EASY FOR BRITTON. CLEVELAND. Sept. 4.—Jack Britton, welterweight champion, easily outpointed Johnny Tillman. Minneapolis, in ten rounds last night.

SCANDAL TALK HITS NATIONAL Officials Investigate Cub-Phil Game of Tuesday. CHICAGO, Bept 4.—Snorting circles in Chicago and other National league cities were deeply stirred today by published charges of gambling schemes, said to involve thousands of dollars in which baseball gamblers in many cities and several piayes oti well known National league clubs are alleged to have been implicated. League officials were reported early today to be planning n painstaking investigation. The charges, as made public here, concerned a game played last Tuesday between the Chicago National league team and their Philadelphia rivals. It is alleged that the "tip" was out during Tuesday forenoon that the Phillies would win and that thousands were wagered and won in Chicago, Cincinnati. Detroit and other c ties as a result of this "tip." The Phillies did defeat the Cubs by a score of 8 to 0 and, it is alleged, listless and Indifferent playing by several Cubs contributed to the result. CUE MANAGER UNAWARE OF IT PITTSBURG. Sept. 4.

He sail: "Yon can say this for me, I have absolutely no knowledge of canrtjl involving the members of tots nail club and should anything he proved you can bet that the guilty parties—if any should be found —will hnve no further ivnno. ti n with this team. “This is the first I have heard of the gambling charges. I know nothing about them and have not even previously heard any rumors that the game referred to was a listless game. In fact. I thought it was a very good one and there was but one legitimate error made I have confidence In my players and don't taka any stock in the charges. If any action is taken it will be lodged with the president of the club, not me."

Tech 1 will lie at home also on November 0, : besides the opening date and the two ! contests with their local rivals, making a total of four appearances before a local audience. Manual will also play four games here, October 15 being the other date beside the three already named.

Shortrldge opening date, October 2, all : home contests will be played on Fridays, so that the high school contests will not Interfere with the college games ached uled in the city on Saturday, it is also thought that the Friday dates will insure a much larger attendance among the high school pupils. ft was decided today to accept the o'* of Irwin field by Butler college o'flclals sad all home games will be staged at that place.

Tuesday is registration day in the three high schools and Wednesday, the day that school actually begins, the first call for football will be made. Although no information is obtained regarding* the material on hand t the local institutions, with the large enrollment that the coaches will have to pick from there la no reason why Indianapolis should nut come to the frqnt with football squads that will be able to hold their own with any In the state.

TOLEDO HENS COME SUNDAY FOR 5 GAMES Boys From the Maumee at Tribe Lot Following Departure of Colonels. TWO DOUBLE CARDS Following the series windup contest with the Louisville Colonels this afternoon the Indians will prepare to meet the Toledo Hens in a five-game series at Washington park, starting with a double header Sunday. . On Monday, Labor day. a .second twin bill will be staged and as an extra attraction fight returns frdm the MlskeDeinpsey and Wiggins-Greb bouts at Bentou Harbor will be megaphoned to the assemblage. Aingslde service has been arranged by Secretary Clauer and tbe details, of the fisticuffs will be given to the fans just as soon as possible. Following the Monday double-header the Hens and Indians will tangle in a single game Tuesday, after which the Tribe will go on the road for two series. Paul Jones was slated to face the Colonels on the mound today and, as the Hoosiers had a chance to get an even break on the series by winning this afternoon, they were expected to display a better brand of pepper than showed yesterday. The Colonels copped tbe Friday engagement, 6 to 2, when the Indians* old trouble, that of lacking in timely hits, again handicapped them. On the other band, Cavet was found for a few timely swats and this combined with erratic work by the Tribe defense gave the Louisville outfit an easy win. Southpaw Koob hurled for the Colonels and he managed to keep the Hoosiers guessing whenever men were on the bases. In the seventh and ninth the Indiana found the plate, but in the meantime the Colonels, had located It so many times that Tribe efforts seemed useless. It will take only a-couple of plnoli blows to put the Indians back on their feet and the loyal fans were hoping that their favorites would break loose today. Third With Colonels Indiana. AB. R. H. O.
