Ii1H misoVULIAN, sunUAY MORNING, AUGUST 20, 1911. 4 r . . *r1 ~Ulli.*. PUGILISTIC MECCA IS AUSTRALIA THIS YEAR COMING SEASONS WILL ATTRACT BIG FELLOWS OF RING TO ANTIPODES. M'INTOSH IMPRESARIO Promoter Succeeds in Making Con tracts That Will Give Faraway Land Plenty of, Battles Between Heavy. weights-His Plans, New York, Aug. 10.-Australia will be the, Mecca of the pugllistic heavy W ights during the coming fall, winter and spring. After considerable engl neering and an expenditure of time and money, Hugh Mc~ntosh has succeeded in making contracts with the big men of the fistic arena that will give the sub-continent almost a glut of battles between burlles. McIntosh left Lon don a short time ago for Sydney to make preparations for the greatest sea son he has ever had, and he carried away with him contracts signed by Jack Johnson, Sam McVey, Bill Lang, Marcel Moreau, the Frenchman, and others, all of whom have placed them seives unreservedly in the hands of McIntosh to fight or play, according to his dictates. In addition to theabove named he has assurances from Al Kaufman, Sam Langford and Jim .Flynn to leave America shortly to take part in this flstlec carnival. McIntosh is negotiat ing with Jimmy Clabby and Jack Dillon of America, Owen Moran and Bands man Rice of England and Paul Till and Eustache of France to make the trip across the line and throw in their for tunes with his plans for the coming campaign. Most of the latter named have already consented to go to the south with him. McIntosh is to have Itsolute control of all of Johnson's bus'ness arrange mients for the form of one year, from October 31 next. On or about that day, Johnson, accompanied by his wife and one other person, who is yet to be selected, will sail from Lbndon for the Antipodes, stopping .en route to give lectures. Immediately upon. ar riving in Sydney, Johnson will go 4nto training for a 20-round contest with Bill Lang on December 20 (Ijoxing Day) for the championship of the world. The big black holds Lang very cheap, and says that hle will have no trouble in disposing of him. On Easter Monday, next year, Johnson will meet Slnm McVey, also of Sydney, for the title. These are the two fights that Johnson has signed for but according to the contract with McIntosh, the latter has the right to match Johnson against Langford, Kaufman, Tommy Burns or Flynn, ad he may elect. All told it is expected that Johnson will clear considerably over a quarter of a million out of his year under the man agement of the Australian. As soon as McIntosh arrives in Syd ney, he will match Bill lang and Jack Lester for a return engagement. Mc Vey will be matched against the winner of this contest. Al Kaufman will be pitted against Bill Lang once more and if he wins, will be asked to fight Lang ford. Then it will be the turn of Mc Vey and Langford to renew their Paris battle. By a series of eliminating contests on these lines, with Jim Flynn getting his chance, McIntosh hopes to prod.,de the best white man and the best black man outside of Johnson, and should they not prove to be Lang and McVey they will be matched against Johnson in addition to the last named pair. If Johnson does not meet Langford in Australia, the climax of next sea son will be reached in Paris, 'when on the eve of the Grand Prix, Melntobh proposes to bring Lil Artha and the Tar Baby together for a finish go. With Langford Johnson will insist upon a side bet of $10,000, as he says that he is not going to allow Joe Woodman or little Samuel to gain any money through fighting him.

Before the defeat today Mathewson had won 22 stralght games Three Cleveland Stars JACKSON' Cleveland, Ohio, July 19.-What Bresnahan is to St. Louis George Stovall is to Cleveland in the estimation of local baseball enthusiasts, who have seen the Naps with Stovall at the helm come to a mark which makes them a formidable contender for the 1911 pennant. Two men who have figured with Stovall in the exciting race are Jackson and Lajoie. Cleveland fans are more than optimistic over the prospect of their machine which is work ing this year like clock work. from ('incinnatI.

Washington, Aug. 19.-The house to day passed with amendment the senate bill providing that the monetary com mission shall pass out of existence after making a report on its work dur ing the three years since its.creation. The amendments require that the re port shall be "full and comprehensive," and extend the life of the commission from January 8, 1912, to Maroh 31, 1912. PETITION KILLED. Seattle, Aug. 19.-The city comp troller's checkers announced tonight that they eliminated sufficient illegal signatures op the newly-filed petition to recall 7Mayor Dilling to kill the movement. ' Of 4,547 c~ounted, 2,878 wqre found Illegal., Thli leaves less than enough If all the rest stand. FINLAND HAS BRACE OF GOOD MEN NIKLANDER WEIGHT THROWER, AND KOHLIAMEINEN, RUNNER, ARE BOTH STARS. New York, Aug. 19.--llnind has two wonderful athletes who will surely figure well up in the next Olympic ganmes--lln wll will undoubtlotedly be strong comtenders for first honolrs In events that have lTlretofore leen sure points for our sturdy athletes. Niklander, a Finnish weight thrower, who Is credited with being the world's champion discus thrower ill Europe. has ben doing some great work with the saucer and the shot. He threw the disclus fromi aln Olympic circle (8 feet, 2 ilchlhes) 140 feet at a recent meet in 1Finland at whi,'h many of the foreign athletes competed, and Nik lander also dlid some great work with the 16-1pound shot, puttifig the weight 46 feet, 10 inches with the right hand and 30 feet, 10 inches with the left. When the Olympic games are held next year at Stockholm, Sweden, the slhot will be put with both hands as one of the events, and it looks more than likely that Niklander will be able to give ,either big "Babe" McDonald or Italph Rose the rub of their lives. The other Finn.: Wlhlemelnen, a younge' brother of the professolail distance runner who p rrformed so well here last spring, won the five-mile run at the Enlilsh champilonships last month. . His thle in that race, 25 minutes, 3 seconds, was exactly 6 see onds better than IBonhag's American outdoor record for the distance. In doers Monlltag has done five miles in 24 minutes,. 8 seconds. VWhen it is considered that Kohlemelnen was not pressed In the English event It seems probable that he will run much more rapidly If Bonhag meets him at Stock holm. .. . . . . .. .

TWO GAMES OF BALL THIS AFTERNOON There will be two ball games at the south 'side park this afternoon between the Missoula and Helena teams of the Union Association of Baseball clubs. The first game will be called at 2:30 o'clock. The bat teries announced for the two games are:.. For the visiting club, Ames and Kelly and Bryan and Baker; for the home club, Jache and Fin. nell and Chevalier and Finnell or Hanson. The games should be in. tereeting and there will be a visit Ing delegation of rooters from Helen. It is poselb'e that Presi dent Lucas, who is on his way to settle the troubles of the local club, may be present and it would be well to show him, by a large at tendance, that Missoula is a good enough baseball town to bo re tained in the league. The local team has no immediate owner at present, but today's receipts will go to the future owners, whoever they be. A good crowd today will serve to make the men who are considering taking over the fran chise think more favorably of the idea, too. It's up to the city's fans to make good, that't all.
