Smyth Joe Gans- \u25a0 believes in the old; turf adage; L : "Run 'em while they^re winning," and in keeping '".with it 1 v he wants to make as many matches as possible: while he is in his present championship; form. He has authorized Manager Ben Selig to Vopen negotiations for a match, with Stanley Ketchel, the /Montana J -boxer, for; the welter weight title. Just now thereis a question as to who holds it, but if these, men come in at the ; required weight the winner undoubtedly would be hailed as the champion. Selig had, a talk with Manager O'Connor, who represents Ketchel, and O'Connor will' talk it over*J»— t— — —^— — — — "'.-'V; •;.'"• • '," & with . the latter \u25a0•" today. Ketchel is spending a vacation In Lake county, where his .manager will visit him. Gans' proposition is that they weigh In at 142 pounds, the recognized wel ter weight limit. .It is a question whether Ketchel: can make this weight and the conference with his manager will be chiefly on that point. It is believed that Ketchel , would • not dodge a -meeting, with Gans if .the weight, could be adjusted to bis satisfaction. ! Failing in obtaining this match, Ketchel can have a return engagement with Joe Thomas, but. here the weights must go to the other extreme. Thomas had made a\ vow that he will never again agree to enter the ring except :at catch weights. Although he must be well within the " middle weight limit, he refuses to agree to fight at 158 pounds, v. He suffered so much in making the weight for Ketchel afc their Labor ' day meeting, when they weighed in at 150 pounds,, that he promises never to be caught again; Thomas had to go to the baths to come in "under the weight, while- Ketchel weighed 147*4 pounds. ,' The question Ketchel will have to decide is whether he can make. l 42 pounds for. Gans and be strong. ; V- » i \ Manager Jim Coff roth has come out with the first announcement of a safe guard for the public which patronizes figkts. ' He has said that he will never match men to weigh in at the ringside. The weight, must be iriade at least three .hours before the contest Is scheduled to start. He feels. that there is always an element of doubt when the weight Is to be .madev ringside .whether the men will be able to make It, and that in addition it usually re duces the effectiveness of the men in the ring, which is an injustice 'to those wagering on them. ; Bill Squires •' is in the thick of his training for his meeting with Jack (Twin) Sullivan at Colma on Septem ber 28. He has big "Denver Ed" Mar tin as a sparring partner and is re ceiving his first rear taste of Amer ican training methods. When..: he trained for Burns he adopted his own tactics and was not willing to imbibe any "Yankee ideas." "He was given* a liberal'.^education in the latter in' one round at Colnia, by Tommy Burns, and now he is so tractable that he will eat out of the hand of his trainer. Martin is a good trial horse for the Aus tralian, as- he has been through the mill with Gus Ruhlin, Jack Johnson and other heavy weighis. . Sullivan has always been a careful trainer and he is leaving nothing un done at his training quarters at the Ocean Beach> He will be joined by. his brother." Mike,' today, after- which training and singing will enliven the proceedings, as the twins . are famous as entertainers. Sullivan will have ; much the worst of It in the matter of weight with Squires, but he expects to offset this: with his wonderful ability as a defensive fighter. Manager Coff roth signed a good pre liminary for tlie; fight yesterday, when he matched Johnny Murphy and Johnny Frayne, two boys who have made names for themselves In the four round game. They signed to box 10 rounds, each to weigh 133 , pounds at 10 o'clock on the morning of the fight. *.
