HUGO KELLY GOING EAST.
' - I
Sylvie Ferretti Is Willing to Mate
His Man With Sam Langford.
New York , Nov. 19. Sylvie Ferre
tl , the Chicago promoter , who lit
Hugo Kelly In charge , contemplai
coming east with his man in quest <
matches. Manager Ferretti will mate
his man , Kelly , against any white ml
dlewelght in the country. He , h < n
ever , draws the color line and stat <
as a reason for so doing that Kel
has never fought a negro. Ferret
would send him against Sam Langfoi
providing the latter will make the mi
dlewcight limit , but not otyiorwis
His reason for discriminating in favi
of Langford Is because he regarc
the latter as the best man of h
weight In the world , but doesn't b
lieve he can do the required weight.
"However , If Langford will ngn
to make 158 pounds , " says Ferret !
"Kelly will take him on , as Kelly laj
claim to the title and Is prepared '
meet any man belonging in that clai
who is considered eligible to fight ft
theMtle. "
Tom O'Rouke , wlio bas taken chart
of "Sailor" Burke , is also out f (
the title for his man. The "Salloi
made such a splendid showing wit
Bill McKinnon of Boston the oth <
night that O'Rourke believes tl
"Sailor" stands a chance with any mn
In the middleweight class. Who
O'Rourke's attention was called I
Hugo Kelly's contemplated Invasion <
the east , ho promptly offered to mate
the sailor against him.
According to reports from the wei
Ad Wolgast has called off his mate
with Battling Nelson. Wolgast a
serts that his injured arm Is not mem
Ing as rapidly as ho had expected an
ho doesn't feel Justified In taking an
chances with the Battler on that a
count. Some time ago Wolgast gav
It out1 that there was llttlo Hkollhoa
of him over entering the prize rln
again , owing to the condition of h !
anteed $9.000 win , lose or draw. But
he has changed his mind again and
declared all bets off. Wolgast , to say
I he least , Is a peculiar sort of a cham
pion. It seems about time for him
to retire permanently from the game
or get In and do a bit of lighting. He's
I doing entirely too much stalling.
| Lew Powell , reputed to be the class ) .
1 eat lightweight San Francisco IMF
'turned out In a coon's age , has been
matched with the Jersey terror , "Cy
clone" Smith , by the Olympic dull
for next Monday night. If the Call'
fornlnn Isn't properly on to his Jol ;
lic'll think before the contest IH hall
> vor that It Is fairly snowing boxliifj
gloves. Powell may bo all hla friends
claim for him , and then some more ;
lint If he can't punch the "Cyclone"
liard enough to keep him off he'll be
ipt to stop something with Hla jaw
that will make him think the roof fel
In and every bit of it hit him on the
dome. "Cyclone" Smith waa unabli
to hang one of hla haymakers or
young Sammy Smith at the Natlona
Sporting club Friday night , but thai
does not signify that he'll misa the
Callfornlan's scalp Monday night
Sammy Smith Is a cool headed am
clever boy , and that Is why he wenth
ered the storm , and It may be thai
Powell can do likewise. But If he
should happen to stub his toe , what t
headache he'll wake up with ! Powol
certainly picked out a tough baby tc
make his eastern debut with.
"Bat" Masterson.

if this particular portion of the lav
has ever been passed upon by anj
court and ho is satisfied that he wll
be able to uphold the law if It Is at
tacked , He will shortly demand fron
the corporations these statements
there being only a very few corpora
tlons which have ever paid any atten
