Australian Boxer Spirited
Off the Gushing by
Tex Riekard.
CM ASK OF WOULD-BK
MANAGERS IS FUTILE
James Leslie Darcy, the pugilistic Idol
tf Australia, who left 111 J native land
lather unceremoniously two months ago,
stood In the pilot house of the tut; W. B.
Diliell yesterday morning aa that boat
pcd from Quarantine toward the Bat
tery and gazed with wide open eyes' at
the ststue of Liberty, the tall buildings
and the. other objects of Intenst In the
harbor.
An Interviewer had Just Inquired If
the Australian would be willing to flght
Wlll.ird, but Darey waa too deeply ab
sorbed In tho contemplation of the tall
ti'Wtr of the Woolworth Building, Finally
he shook off the spell of wonderment
The great Leslie spoke. i
"I have been told that Wlllard U
near! as Urge as that building. Never-
thfUf i I will flght him, or any other 1
in In America." he said to the re
porter for Tub 8pn, who was the only
representative of a morning paper on the
scene.
To the deep chagrin of a host ofi
American handlers of boxern, Darcy i
brought his own manager In the person
of E. T. O'fiulllvnn. The pair had left
the steamship Cushlng at Quarantine
and were on board tho Dalxtll, chartered
by Tex Hlckard, when the Immigration
officials arrived on the scene. To say
that the Immigration men were Irritated
le putting It mildly.
They megaphoned the captain of the
Cashing asking what he meant by per
mitting the boxer to leave the C'uahlng
before the Immigration Department had
an opportunity to examine Into Darcy's
condition, mentally, physically and
financially.
I.onli Into Hare's Health.
The captain made his excuses anil then
retired to his cabin. Whereupon the Im
migration officials turned their attention
to Tex rtlckard on the tug.
"Darcy must go back on the steamship
till we have looked Into his case !"
shouted Dm otilclal.
"Why not come over here on the tug?"
queried Hlckard with customary suavity.
A compromise was finally effected un
der the terms of which Darcy and his
manager climbed aboard the Immigra
tion boat and submitted to an examina
tion by tho representatives of that de
partment. After a close Inspection of the lighter,
who looked for all the world like a pros
perous tradesman, one of the Immigra
tion squad asked, "Are you In good
physical condition?"
"1 could go Into the ring on ten days
notice." said the champion.
After satisfying themselves that Darcy
was not likely to become a charge on
the nation, that he was not afflicted with
contagious disease and that h wan
po'sewed of sufllclent funds to maintain
him in comfort till he found work,
the ofllclals passed him back to the tug
and he went on his way rejoicing.
Muscular Power Apparent.
Those who expected that Darcy would j
oe iciunu negnmeu wiin uiri in mo
stokehold of the Cushlng were disap
pointed. On the contrary', they saw a
nitty looking man, wearing a dark gray
soft hat, a tasteful suit of dark hlue
dothes, black tie, and an ulr of cheery
confidence.
Kven In his street clothes Darcy's)
muscular iiowers were observable. When
h cordially greeted a newcomer the
hand which he extended seemed to be
ih'iut tho slie of a catcher's glove, and
the crip he Imparted Is not readily to
lie forgotten. So large are his hands that
lie ran not wear the ordinary boxing
alov, hut Is compelled to have a epe
IM pi r made for him.

Oscar Kgg and Marcel Dupuy won the
twenty-fourth annual six day bicycle

with the finish apparently more than
two lours away, sit teams tied for the
lad and the race apparently to be set

Dupuy, catching the rent of the field
wearied by several sprints for primes,
suddenly swum; out In a series of mad
speed -bursts that were kept up until they
had lapieU the entire Held.

young JMdlo Madden finished second.
McNnmnra and Spears on thlr.l place.
Kaiser and Cameron finished fourth.
Fifth and sixth places went to the Dro-bach-lllll
and tho tVnlthour-UcbaMes
teams. Only because Hill quit the race
after thc fifteenth Herlln sptlnt, forcing
Drulinch to do all the riding, the team
finished as low as It did.

Kgg ami Dupuy struck their knockout
blow Just as the Harden was filling tip
ami tho spectatorj were getting ready
for tho Herlln sprints. Tluee primes at
one imln had been held. The last mm
had been won by Itegglo McXamara
after n clotfo race.
Mc.Namar.i's strenuous excttlons nan
left him spent and winded. Most of the
other riders also were pulling and blow-
I.H. Noticing tho omdltlon of their
men'tV'

Hunehlng himself far over Ills handle ,

aii'l was away "on a mad hurst before
the other ruler knew what had hap
pened. Twice Kgg circled the ttack at
n oyelonlo clip beforo he was relieved
by Dupuy. In quick reliefs the Swiss
and thc Ilclglau bang-banged away In
terrlllo sprints. Flashing up the
stretches Ilk streaks of lightning and
swooping tho curves like striking hawks
,tho two Kuropeans etretched their lead (
from n quarter of a lap to half n lap.
Mlder after rider was passed, and soon
thn two Kuropeans had lapped all teams
except the McXaniaro-Hpears, Madden
Itoot and ilill-Drobacli combinations,
McNamaro, Madden and Hill were '
only a quarter of a lap in front of Kgg.
Ileggle wan practically dead on his
wheel. He was laboring badly and his i
wheel was ilgt-igglng as he htrove '
McWiiiiaran 1 desperately to prevent Kgg irom eaten

crawled up and upon the trio that re
malntd untapped and Anally caught and
passed them. Victory was his and ho
raised his hand partly to call the atten

had succeeded In gaining tho coveted
laps and partly as a gesture of triumph,
Tin building hud been a I lei! lam dur

fans were almost frantic with excite

Just after Kgg and Dupuy had gained
the lap tho sprint was brought to nil
end by a spill on the Twenty-sixth

Madden and Cameron, circling the, turn,
rubbed wheals willi McXamara. Ileggle
went down and took Do Uncles with him,

Despite his pain Kyroncn travelled nt
a fast pace nnd taslly defeated thirty
two veteran distance runners. .U tl

one mile nhend of Sidney Hatch of Chi
cago, the veteran who lecenlly estab
lished a world's record In n run from
Milwaukee to Chicago. Hatch Jlnlshed
second, n similar distance In front of
James Iirooks of the Mohawk Athletic
I Club. Kyronen ran the distance In !
'hours .11 minutes nnd 51 2-S seconds.
Tho Finn was cold and fatigued when
ho staggered across the finish line, but a
drink of hot coffee worked wonders with
him, and after declaring that the rogrso
was the hardest h ban ecr coveted be
ran to his dressing room hair n mile
away.
