Chicago Boxer Proves to Clever For

Easterner in Kenosha Bout Last Night.

Kenosha, Wis., Dec. 17. Outfought, outpunched and outgeneraled in all but one of the ten rounds fought, Eddie Murphy of Boston succumbed to defeat last night In the Coliseum before the padded fists of the masterful Packey McFarland of Chicago. Only In the sixth session did the Boston boxer show any signs of being the equal of the Chicago speed marvel. In this round Eddie cut loose and landed a straight left flush to McFarland's chin which sent Packey spinning at least stx feet across the rlngr- Murphy followed this advantage by stab-, blng Packey with straight lefts and right crosses. Against this showing McFarland sent Murphy to the canvas In the final round with a right hook. The eastern boy was up in a Jiffy and fought back gamely, although a beaten man and a sorrowful looking spectacle as he left the squared circle. 4 Not alone In the tenth, but also in the seventh round Packey had his man headed toward Queer street, when he forced Murphy to cover to avoid that dangerous right. Murphy in this round complained that McFarland had landed a foul blow, and the referee cautioned the Chicago miller. It was an accidental punch, for which McFarland apologized. Again, In the last round. McFarland, In his eagerness to put his man away, hit his opponent low, but the feree would not allow a foul. Murphy's left eye was badly swollen and his nase was bruised as he left the

ring. Packey, except for a swollen lip, bore no marks of the fray. The contest started tamely. Each man was careful and content to feel out the other. Packey had the better of the first five rounds, because he forced the milling and landed cleaner punches. Both were wild at times and missed by wide margins. In the sixth Murphy loosened up and brought the crowd to its feet when he hit Packey with & straight left. The manner in which he followed up this momentary advantage gave him a decisive margin for the round. After this session Packey breezed through the remaining rounds as he pleased and was the nfaster of his opponent at all times. It was a pretty exhibition of boxing between two of the leading stars in the lightweight division. Science, speed, cleverness and generalship were displayed at all times, although neither possessed the necessary wallop to put the other away. The Coliseum was packed long before the principals for the first preliminary entere dthe ring. It was estimated that 2,000 persons were in the

ring and that the house

workout yesterday than he did In all the other days since starting training. Today he did Very little wrk tit camp, boxing only three rounds with McCluskey. Luther Mccarty has cut his vacation short; and returned to town today. Manager McCarney said that he would start the husky youngster ' in light workouts on Thursday, and by Sunday he should be In the height of his training work. McCarty's right hand knuckles, which he bruised on Flynn's head, have healed and the hand is in good shape. Walter Monahan, "Bull" Young and Howard Sloane will be McCarty's

J training assistants. It is probable

that Al McCluskey, Palzer's chief spar

ring partner, and Walter Monahan,

represented t from McCarty's camp, will' be matched

A stampede occurred when the j as a preliminary to the big fight

Chicago contingent arrived. Only one j

door was opened to admit tne ians, ana several persons were crushed in their efforts to gain admittance. Two special trains from Chicago brought over 1,100 Windy City fan's to the battle ground.

PAPKE SIGNED TO BOX KLAUS MAR. 5 Kewanee Battler Will Return to France About February.

Paris, Dev. 17. Billy Papke, middleweight champion of France and claimant of the world's title, was today signed to meet Frank Klaus of Tittsburg before the Wonderland club of Paris on the night of March G. The articles resulted from a systematic chase of Klaus by Al Lippe, Pauke's manager, and M. Vienue, promoter of the Wonderland club. On the night of Dep. 5 Papk-j knocked out George Bernhard, France's last hope In the middleweight division. He was at once signed for an eight-week theatrical tour, but it was canceled by Papke's manager. The boxing commission demanded a reason and Papke was forced to explain. He exhibited a badly swollen right hand and doctors' certificates showing that he had suffered a broken bone when he knocked Bernhard out. Manager Lippe Bald the

i Injury cost Papke just $10,000, as that ', was what they were to get on the i stage. ' ! Papke decided to take a rest and al- ' low the Injured member to heal, and he sailed for America Dec. 9. He will ' go to his home city, Kewanee, 111., there to remain ' until it is time to i start back to France in February. Im- ' mediately after tha Papke-Klaus fight in , Paris March E Papke. will go to I Monte Carlo to train for his battle ; there with Georges Carpentier, from ; whom he won the middleweight title. I Following his victory over Bernard, j at which ceremony there were several I government officials .as Is customary, Papke was awarded the ivory and gold belt emblematic ot the "world's championship," according to the engraving. The French boxing commission, with M. "Vlnue as spokesman, presented the belt to the champion. Papke's fighting companions, Jeff Smith, Charlie Thomas and Banty Lewis, wili remain in Paris with ManI ager Lippe. -

Los Angeles, Dec. 17. According to indications, Al Palzer is almost sure to be made favorite over Luther McCarty when betting opens up on the New Tear's day flght. The same combination that supported Flynn against McCarty, it develops, will play Palzer right back, and : fully as strongly, in an effort to recoup their losses. The fact that Tom Jones and Ad Wolgast are very strong , admirers of Palzer will probably have an Influence on the betting. Palzer showed more in the hour's

EXPECTS EVERS TO MJPEIMJI Cubs Will Finish no Lower Than Second, According to Murphy.

The Cubs will surely finish one-two

next year as they are now made up. If

President Murphy and Managers Even can secure two men they are now

seeking the 1913 pennant is as good as

won for the west side team. These assertions were made by Mr

Murphy yesterday after he had gone

through the accumulation of mall and

telegrams that had been waiting for him in his office since he started for the National league meeting In New York. Would you like to know the names of the two men the Cubs are after? So would we. The Information will not be ours until the deal Is swung. If It Is swung.. C. Welch wouldn't give any hint as to their identity. It Is a certainty that one of them is a pitcher and there have been plenty of guesses regarding him.. Sallee, Rucker, Rixey, Tyler, Harmon and Seaton ahve been mentioned. The other desired athlete is probably a catcher, for the Cubs need a man to help out Archer. Mr. Murphy comes right out with the statement that he believes he now has a club that will finish second or better. He says his opinion is shared by Fred Clarke and Barney Dreyfuss of the Pirates. It was gathered from his conversation that Knisely would be retained soleyy for plnch-hitting duty and that Red Corriden would be start

ed at shortstop.

"I think," said the Cub president, "that the team, as now constituted, is the strongest hitting aggregation ha has represented Chicago since I came here. The three outfielders and the four infielders who win regular jobs will have to be strong batters, because there's going to be strong competition. I also believe we will be faster than ever before, but I will not' say brainier."
