(BY Sl'IKK.) Stewart of Hammond, who a well-earned draw with Bat

tling N'tlson in their ten-round tilt last week, has not only gained much favor among the right fans of the country as a result, but his manager, Jack Filan. is beginning to hear from lightweights from near and far who are clamoring to pet a crack at the popular Hammond boy. Two flght.s have already l.een signed by ManaKei- Fllan, the first to be staged In several weeks when Stewart faces the well-known Tommy Gary. The bout is scheduled to po ten rounds and although the place has not been found the principals will be seen in a Lake county ring. Even I'.attl'.ng Nelson had so much praise for Stewart that he wants another try at him, and before, Hat starts on his world tour the rair will go another ten rounds at Cin-

Kenosha. Wis., Nov-. 22. Charley White of Chicago and "Pal" Moore of Philadelphia battled ten rounds in the arena of the Kenosha Athletic club last nijfht, and when the final crong had sounded the honors of the clash belonged to the Chicago boy. No exhibition In any ring ever furnished' more cleverness than was ex

hibited by White and Moore. For seven of the ten rounds there was nothing: to choose between them. It was In the last three sessions that the Chioagoan, putting on an extra head of steam, outpointed the Quaker City fiKhter. White rushed the milliner as the battle neared the end, and as Moore was weary of the speedy pace, he slowed

up perceptibly. Moore pave an exhibition of cleverness that excelled that of his opponent and if anything it was lack of condition that caused his defeat. The easterner had fousht a hard fif-tetn-round battle In New Haven on Monday nlpht and then had been forced to take the long train ride to Chicago, which had the effect of knocking him out of form. White deserves all

the credit in the world for besting the Quaker. He never once let up in his attack and for the preater number of the ten rounds forced the fiehting. White earned the margin in four rounds, the third, eiprhth, ninth and tenth. In the final session he set sail after Moore at top speed and with a smash to the mouth brought the only blood that either shed during the battle. The honors in two rounds, the fifth and sixth, belonged to the easterner. His margin in the fifth was not lartfe. but in the sixth, working a shift left and rlpht, he bewildered White and landed two blows to one taken. That was only a flash, however, for after that ho slowed up, while White went ahead and parnered points. The size of the crowd was a disappointment to the promoters. Not more than 1.500 fans saw the battle. Fully half of these came from Chicago on the special train which arrived at S:20 o'clock. In the first preliminary George Morton of Ienver was declared winner

over Joe Litus of Waukejran in the third round, the referee stopping an uneven contest to save Lltus from a knockout. The boys fought at 118 pounds. Georse Hetzner of Cleveland j?ave Mike Berphoff of C'hirasro a stiff lacing in the second preliminary, winning by himself. The bout went the limit of six rounds. They fought at 145 pounds. Hilly Walters, the naval station welterweight, fighting like a tiger, outclassed Tommy Murphy of Chicago in the seini-windup. There was only one round, the second, in which. Murphy made any kind of a showing. Walters was on top of his man every minute, in the fifth round Walters sent Murphy to the mat. but the latter was up immediately. Murphy was game, but never had a chance to win.

San Francisco, Nov. 22. When Ad

Wolgast wat training for his recent fight with Joe Jlandot in New Orleans, an ancient darkey referred to him as "that little bundle of fuss." That probably describes better than anything else the lightweight champion's training day at the Seal Rock gymnasium. With only a brief let up at mid day, Ad was at it from early morning until late in the afternoon and not a thing in the training line was overlooked. At nightfall his sparring partners were a sorry looking bunch and at least one of them Did Mackey, a Lna Angeles product gently slumbered while Wolgast's training staff applied restoratives. "I just wanted to convince some of the wise ones that it was my appendix

and not my stamina that those Ios Angeles doctors got," declared Wolgast today. "There has been too much talk about this thing and I am getting tired of it. A few days ago, in addition to being a physical wreck, my left hand was out of commission. If you happened to notice today it was this crippled left that put one of my sparring partners down for the count. Next week Ritchie will be in a position to give you more definite information on it."

the center of the ring to shake hands when he reeled and fell against Holmes. Holmes thought Merten was joking and shoved him aside. He fell to the floor dead. A physician declared that death was due to heart failure induced by excitement. The police attached no blame to Holmes, but held him on a technical charge of homicide to await the action of the coroner.

Pittsburg. Pa-. Nov. 22. Frank Chance will be manager of the Chi

Roger Hresnahan also will be the manager of the St. Louis club, and Deacon Philipp!, once great Pirate pitcher, will manage the Pittsburg team. These and other decisions were reached today, not by magnates of the National league, but by Pittsburg's millionaire promoters of the outlaw United States league Messrs. Marshall Henderson and William T. McCullough. Undaunted by the collapse of their gigantic baseball proposition of 1911, which purposed to place teams in the most important major league cities ln the east, the promoters have started on another campaign which, they declare, will give the public of the territory bounded by Pittsburg in the east and Kansas City in the west, an article of baseball equal to that furnished by either major league. Besides the former major leaguers named, the United States league officials declare they have the contracts of Hugh Duffy and Johnny Kling, and each will manage a team. Duffy in Milwaukee and Kling in Kansas City.

DEATH CLAIMS TWO AIRMEN

Andre Frey Killed by a Fall of 150 feet at Rheims, France.

Rheims, France, Nov. 22. Two aviators were killed today, Andre Frey at

Rheims and Sub-Lieut. Laurent

Etampes. Frey was known on both sides of the water. He finished third in the international aviation race at Chicago in

September. Yesterday he was undergoing military training and had Just finished a regular practice flight. He stopped his engine at a height of about S00 feet and planed down beautifully until within 150 feet of the ground. Then suddenly the right wing of the monoplane shot up and the machine dropped to earth. Frey was badly crushed. The cause of the accident is a mystery, as the aeroplane had been thoroughly tested and apparently was in perfect condition. Lieut. Laurent and Sapper Chenu were making a flight near Etampes at a speed of sixty miles an hour when a squall caught the aeroplane as the pilot attempted to make a sharp turn and dashed it to the ground. Laurent was killed, but Chenu escaped with slight injuries.
