Abe was recently defeated In a fifteen-round bout at Los '"Angeles," '"Cal".; """"by Freddie Welsh, and he claims that he lost the battle by agreeing to fight Welsh at 120 pounds. In a telegram to Al Lippe of New York, which the latter received last night, Attell said: "In the future I will only fight men who can i do 126 pounds or under. I have been taught a lesson." They have dug up another Rube Marquard, put in Indianapolis. His handle Is Peter Janickf. He 13 six feet three inches tall and weighs over 200 pounds.

Walter Steffen, the University of Chicago's crack quarter back, may be Wabash college's football coach next fall, according to the rumor circulated in local athletic circles tonight The claim is made that the business men of Crawfordsville are willing to pledge f 5QO toward hiring the Maroon wizard to pilot the fortunes of the Lit-, tie Giants next season. Walter .Eckereall, who refereed the Wabash-Notre Dame game, is quoted as saying Wabaah had the best and fiercest aggregation of tacklers in the West this season, and local sentiment is to the effect that If Steffen is secued the scarlet will be a big factor In the gridiron next fall. .

ball. How can the Giants ever hope There will be no night sessions for either big leagues or national tommission this year, according to the magnates. In that case base ball matters will take up the greater part of next President Ban B. Johnson has issued a proclamation that the annual meeting of the American league will be held at the Wolcott Hotel, New York, , beginning Wednesday afternoon, December 0, at 2 o'clock. The first annual meeting of the National association of Base Ball Writers will be held in conjunction with the league meeting in New York. President Joe Jackson of Detroit has not announced the exact tfate or place. Harry Pulliara has kindly offered the use of his offices to the scribes, and they will, in all .probability, meet there Thursday afternoon of next week. NEITHER IS ANXIOUS Olson and Demetral Know Battling Abilities of The Other. MEET HERE DECEMBER 11. "The Olson-Demetral contest will be my greatest offering of the season," stated Promoter Charlson yesterday. "For several weeks I have been trying to arrange this meeting, but neither Olson or Demetral appeared to be very enthusiastic about going against each other. However, I finally induced them to meet in this city, Friday, December 11 and, it goes without saying, this match will be the greatest ever pulled off in this city." Olson and Demetral have met each other twice, splitting even on victories. Last year they clashed at Tampa, Fla., and the Greek won the match. About two months ago these two stars met in Indianapolis and Olson won. The excuse offered by Demetral for losing this match was that it was as hard to beat Olson in Indianapolis, as j it was to beat Americus in Baltimore. I Demetral is the holder of the light heavy-weight championship belt of England. This belt la a most valu- j able ornament and will be exhibited in this city, probably next week. WRESTLERS CLEVER Paulson-Swyer Match Is Attracting Considerable Attention. BOUT AT NEW PHILLIPS. The sale of seats for the PaulsonDwyer match at the New Phillips tomorrow evening has been quite large and It is expected the house will be packed by wrestling fans who are anxious to witness the clash between these two clever middlewelghts. Neither of the principals In the bout have ever been seen in this city before, but they are said to be as clever performers as can be found in the country. The match will be pulled off on the stage immediately after the regular vaudeville performance. This double bill will be offered to patrons for one admission.

Commercial Federation Plan Legislative Program. to POSITIONS TO BE FILLED. The executive committee of the Indiana Federation Commercial clubs, recently organized in this city, will shortly hold a meeting, probably in Indianapolis for the purpose of completing organization, for the election of a secretary-treasurer, and to take preliminary steps in arranging to have desired legislation brought before the legislature for consideration. Today E. M. Haas, secretary of the Richmond Commercial club, received a letter from W. B. Campbell of Anderson, who acted as temporary secretary at the local meeting, in which he stated that he had sent a copy of the constitution and the list of officers to all the clubs in the federation and that he had also been advised by President John Beasley of Terre Haute that he would in the near future call a meeting of the executive committee, which is composed of himself, the thirteen vice presidents and the secretary treasurer, who is yet to be chosen. Mr. Campbell states that President Beasley also assured him that he intended to give the best of his time to the work of the new organization. It is not known who the candidates for secretary-treasurer are, but it is quite probable that an Indianapolis man will be chosen. Ultimately this office will probably be a salaried one but it is not thought that it will be one for at least a year yet. POORER SERVICE OH DAYTON AND WESTERN Five Dayton Cars Taken From Road. In order t cut down the running expenses of the compaiyr, the officials of the Dayton and Western Traction company have taken off five through cars to Dayton. In the morning there is no ten or eleven o'clock, cars and in the afternoon and evening the five and the eight o'clock cars only go to West Alexandria and the last car for Dayton of an evening as at 9:55. Local officials do not know the exact reason for taking off the cars, but it is judged that the traffic on the road at present does not justify so many trains. One of the local officials stated that it was probable that several of the cars would probably be run duripg the holidays, but this is not an assured fact. HANCOCK CHOSEN CAPTAINJF 1 TEAM Earlham Football Men Meet Today. At a meeting held today by the members of the Earlham football team John Hancock was chosen captain for the team next year. Hancock is one of the best players and one of the most popular young men at the college. He was kept out of the game this year on account of an injury and the team was badly crippled by his loss. Hancock also had the honor of being chosen manager of the baseball team for next year. The Earlham Athletic association today also elected John Heaton manager of the track team and WHmer Lindley manager of the basketball team. CROSS COONTRY RON AT EARLHAM COLLEGE Athletes Will Compete for Points in Meet. Plans are now being formulated at Earlham for a novel meet for long distance runners. Coach Vail has or dered all sprinters to keep out. For many years the Quaker enthusiasts in long distance running have been following the valley of Clear creek and trotting over the hills of the country surrounding. Prof. Collins former director of the chemistry department, who won fame , as a cross country man while in Har , vard. was a devotee of the sport and under his leadership the run was made very popular among Earlham athletes. It is said that even the dogs of the surrounding country became fa miliar with the sight and ceased to bark at the fleeing figures clad in garments of every conceivable color and shape, as the squad headed by the long, graceful strides of Prof, Collins bolted through a barn yard gate or jumped a treacherous hedge. On ,December 16 the cross country men will reap the fruits of former la bor, in the first cross country meet ever held at Earlham college. The men will be awarded points according to the place in which they finish, but the runners in the shorter event will win only half the number of points the winners in the three mile course will take. The course has cot yet been laid out. New Yorkers drink tea as well as other things, and it is estimated that one pound of herb la consumed by each inhabitant yearly. ,

THE WILLS ARE READ Contest Suit Against Frybarger Will Continues in Circuit Court. MANY WITNESSES ARRIVE Another delegation of witnesses arrived from Fayette county today to attend the Martin-Chltwood case, now on trial in the Wayne circuit court. The most of these witnesses will be placed on the stand by the defense. They arrived at about 10 o'clock and their appearance in the court room interrupted the proceedure temporarily. The Introduction of testimony by the plaintiffs continued during the morning. It was believed probable the defense would get to open its line of evidence late this afternoon, probably. The most of the time this morning was taken up by the reading of wills and reports. The attorneys engaged in a number of disputes as to the validity of certain documents and the right to present them in court. The court ruled against the plaintiff in the attempt to introduce a report of the guardian of George Frybarger, deceased. It was the evident intent of the plaintiff to use this document as proof of the insanity of the decedent, the provisions of whose will have provoked the suit. Frybarger's will, which it now is being tried to break, was read to the jury. GETS A E THEN SUICIDES Body of Young Woman Who Killed Herself Identified. New York, Dec. 3.
