GOTGH CHALLENGES 'HACK' FOR A HATCH WITH $20,000 WAGER

Farmer Burns Posts $500 For Champion to Insure Bout For Title. Frank A. Gotch yesterday issued a formal challenge to Hackenschmidt or any other wrestler for a match for the championship of the world. Farmer Burns, who for years has been the champion's right hand man and trainer, made the formal announcement of the Iowan's desire to re-enter the grappling game. Burns posted $500 as a forfeit to bind a match for a side bet of $20,000, putting the money up with an Omaha newspaper. He stated that he would put up an additional, $5,000 January 17, and the remainder" whenever his opponent wishes. The Examiner recently printed Gotch'is first announcement of his intention to re-enter the wrestling game. At that time the champion said he was anxious to wrestle and as soon as he could straighten out a certain matter which was keeping him out of the ring he would announce his willingness to mee any man in the world. Gotch Asks Much. The terms laid down by Burns are steep ones and it is doubtful if any one can be found willing to wager $20,000 on his changes against the champion The conditions under which Gotch will wrestle are as follows: The match must be for a side bet of $20,00. The winner is to take the entire nurse and tne wrestlers snare oi wie receipts. The contest must be decided accord ing to the catch-as-catch-can rules.

He stated in Omaha yesterday that he would return to the Nebraska city January 6 and sign arti cles in behalf of the Humboldt giant. YOUTH 18, ARRESTED By JACK JOHNSON Gaston Lefait Visited in Jail by Heavyweight Champion.

The lad was arrested yesterday and held at the Central Police Station for a short time. Later he was released on bail. Lefait is said to have started the trouble Monday morning when he went to the home of Johnson, 3345 Wabash avenue, and demanded a meeting with Jack, forcing his request by means of a revolver, according to the mother and wife of the champion. He was arrested some time later by deteceives from the Central Station. Johnson was in Milwaukee, where he opened a vaudeville engagement Monday, and was quickly notified. He made a flying trip to Chicago yesterday to prefer charges against the man. The champion says Lefait was once his chauffeur, but was dismissed after he learned to run his automobile himself. Johnson went to the cell to confer with the prisoner and said, before returning to Milwaukee in the afternoon, that he would prosecute the youth. YANKEES GRAP PENN STAR Pittsburg, Pa., Dec. 2S.

r. I D D LEW EIGHTS ARE

I -FUSS OVER TITLE Defeat of Papke Brings New Claimants; Smith Is the Most Desering. The defeat of Billy Papke by Dave Smith in Australia Monday has made a pretty muss out of the middleweight division and we have champions springing up on all sides. Hugo Kelly is out with a claim for the title, and if there is any 158-pounder in this coun try who has a right to dispute the Australian's claim to the honors, Kelly is the man. He has fought Papke four times, two of the bouts going to a draw, Papke winning one by a knock out in one round and the other going to the 'Thunderbolt" on points. Kelly always has argued that the time was knocked out he was the victim of a lucky punch. He bases his claim to the championship chiefly on his twenty-five-round go with Papke in Log Angeles, which was called a draw by James J. Jeffries, the referee of the affair. This decision always has been pointed out aB the greatest error in Jeffries' career save his match with Johnson. Think Jeff Made M intake. Kelly chopped Papke up in bad shape and appeared to have earned the verdict on points by a big margin, but Jeft could see nothing but a draw and called it so. Kelly claims he has improved during the past year, and was going at a nice clip until he broke his hand in his recent go with Frank Klaus in Boston. In beating Klaus, he established' his right to claim superiority over any other middleweight in this country, as Klaus, undoubtedly, is one of the toughest boys in the grime. A fight between Kelly and this new fellow Smith over in Australia should settle the championship problem so far as the United States and Australia are concerned. A battle between the win ners of such a bout and Jim Sullivan, the new English champion, should settle definitely the ownership of the title which has been more or less in dispute since Ketchel's death. Claims are being advanced that Smith did not win the championship by defeating Papke inasmuch as the two fought at a weight, a few pounds over the recognized middleweight limit of 158 pounds. Such an argument is not a sound one, provided Smith can make the limit. Papke had the best claim to the championship of anybody in the game when he entered the ring with Smith. If he allowed the latter to fight at a few pounds above the limit of his division it was at his own peril.- Middleweights are a trifle too large to haggle over a pound or two in weight. AUTO TOURISTS IN NEW YORK STORM Syracuse, X. T.. Dec. 28. Driver Bill Smith of the Warren-Detroit "Wolverine' made the trip between here and Rochester yesterday in lively fashion. The "Wolverine" bounded over the snowy state highway at great speed, encountering difficulty only in the famous Montezuma marsh. Although coving more than eighty miles, the midwinter tourists were in this city before darkness set in. The Detroiters struck only one bad drift during the day, but this served to put t. of the tires to the bad. While chopping the frozen snow away from the rear wheels, the tires .were cut with the ax. The crew has determined to make New York by Friday night. This will necessitate Albany as the stop today. CANUCK HOCKEY TEAMBEATS N. Y. New York, Dec. 2 8. Canada vanquished America at the St. Nicholas rink yesterday in the first international hockey match of the season. The players of the St. Michael's team, champion amateurs of the dominion and holders of three trophies, emblematic of the junior and senior championships played with the New York A. C. team champions of the Amater Hockey league, much as a master toys with his pupils, and the final score was six goals to nothing. The Canadians excelled the New Yorkers in every department of the favorite Canadian winter pas time. ALL STARS END WORK. Memphis, Tenn., Dec. 2S.

FLYNN BEATS TWIN SULLIVAN Boston,- Dec. 28. The bout here last night between Porky Flynn of this city and Jack Twin Sullivan of Cambridge ended in a riot. The referee gave the decision to Flynn. Then Twin got angry , and attempted to slug the referee, who escaped quietly. Jack then vented his displeasure at the award by clouting Flynn. Sam Langford acted as peacemaker. The bout went the 'full distance. -Flynn earned the decision, for he had a big advantage in at least eight rounds and held his own in another. Sullivan made quite a hurricane finish, but did not obtain any great lead. He started in fast in the eleventh round, but it was too latef to overcome Flynn's big lead.
