Jeannette Claims That French- man Outclassed Willard. "Joe" Jeannette iz out with a | statement that, in his opinion, Geor- ges Carpentier, the heavyweight | champion of Europe, will surely de- {feat Willard if the two ever get to- | gether in a ring bout. Jeannette was | the negro pugilist who fought Car- pentier in Paris in 1914 and won af- ter fifteen of the most gruelling ! rounds he says he ever experienced. | Jeannette is looked upon as one of the best judges among pugilists. Joe thinks.tHat the French boxer would make Willard "look foolish." Jeannette says that Carpentier is | the greatest living pugilist to-day, that he is a skilled fighter, keen and {quick and clever on his feet. He does not think that Willard would {be able to hit him. "Carpentier has not a weak point that I know of. I tried through fif- 'teen rounds of the hardest milling I {ever experienced to find one, and he {is a hard hitter. I have received many hard punches in my time, but {never do I remember being hit so {hard as when Carpentier sent me to ithe floor with a wallop on the jaw." | "Joo" PROHIBIT SPIT BALL. | Club Owners Believe Pitchers Should Depend on Natural Skill. Some of the magnates have an {idea that the use of the spit-ball {should be prohibited. They insist ithat the pitchers already have a tremendous advantage over the batsmen without resorting to" artifi- cial methods. The spitball has been {pronounced unsanitary and disgust- ® ing. It has been known to ruin.the wet ball has caused numerous field- ing errors that have been costly.

But certain pitchers, if they do not use the spitter, deliver 'what is known as Hie licorice ball, or are in the habit of putting rosin on their fingers. The foul- strike rule has made pitching against heavy hitters comparatively easy. The fans prefer heavy bat- ting to effective box work.

Martimas, the leading sire at the Valley Farm, and winner of the Fu- turity in 1898, is dead at Hamilton. The grand old horse was stricken with lic last week, during which he fractured a leg and he had to be destroyed. Besides the Futurity, he won the Flatbush, but was disquali- fied, but afterwards won the Cana- dian Derby, the Toronto Cup and other important stake events. He won $52,000 for the late William Hendrie, and his offspring to date have won $79,638. na Phone 377 22---Depot Batteries at Fron- | [In the World LES DARCY SURELY * BOUND FOR AMERICA The Australian Boxer, Fleeing From Service, Cuts a Poor Figure. A despatch from New York says: In view of the unselfish attitude of the great French boxer and the pat- riotic motives that govern him, the Carpentier-Willard bout is quite like- ly to receive more attention from socity than any boxing contest that ever took place in America. But this approval can only be assured if the larger part of the receipts is turned over to the relief fund, It now is reasonably certain that the wonderful Australian boxer, Les Darcy, will arrive in this city by Christmas or the first of the new year at the latest. The Australian middleweight champion took passage on the steam- ship Hattie Luckenbach, which clear- ed from Newcastle, Australia, late in October. Darcy had been matched to box a return bout with Chip in Melbourne Nov. 6th, but the bout never took place, and Chip, who now is in America, having arfived in San Francisco a few days ago, asseris that Darcy was on board the Lucken- bach when she sailed. The Hattie Luckenbaéh, which is owned by the Luckenbach Steamship Company, of 44 Whitehall street, touched at Taital, Chile, on Nov. 29th, and at Antofogasta, Chile, on Dec. 7th. This was her last port of call before docking at the company's pier, foot of 35th street, Brooklyn. She. will come up by way of the Panama Canal, and according to the dock superintendent, should arrive arrive here not later than Jan. 1st. Every boxing manager in America will be on the pier when she docks. af The Toronto Telegram says: The action of the Frontenacs in abandon- ing the junior series of the O.H.A. should prove beneficial to the Kings- ton Junior Hockey Club, as it will have the entire city to choose from. This should be agreeable to the fans, as the two-club struggle last year was not profitable. MADE IN CANADA / TOOKE COLLARS ~ 15 CENTS EACH TOOKE BROS. LIMITED MAKERS - - MONTREAL For.

The 122nd Battalign, who won the lacrosse championship of Camp Bor- den, will have a nifty hockey team in the OH.A. intermediate series. They are stationed at Gait and have engaged Walter Knox, of Orillia, the famous all-round athlete, to look after their physical welfare. Ottawa, so it is reported, has made an offer to the Torontos to trade Cyril Dennenay for Goaler Hébert and $500 cash. The offer has been refused by the local club. The Hamilton Hockey Club are going to make an effort to have the O.H.A. allow them to use Jimmy Freeman, the former Ottawa player, this season. Freeman resided in Hamilton until , September 18 and then moved back to Brantford, where he secured a position. The Ottawas will very likely have the services of Horace Merrill again this season. It is understood that he | will sign a contract if one is tendered | him. As much space was wasted on Merrill's alleged retirement as there was in the Keat's case. Alf. Skinner, the Torontos' right wink, is twenty pounds overweight. It will require some time and a lot of hard work for him to get into con- dition. ORGANIZED BASEBALL REVOLUTION IMMINENT Led by International and Am= erican Association, Minors Will Fight. A New York despatch says:: Or- ganized baseball peace is Tn seri- ously threatened. The minor leagues are ready to secede from the federa- tion. Led by the big Class AA cir- cuits, the' minors, which consider themselves the backbone of the or- ganization, are prepared to suspend operations if need be to rid them- selves of the yoke of the National Commission. Matters- have reached a crisis with the minor leagues. The Players' Fraternity is pressing demands that would mean ruination of business in the minors. The union wishes dis- ability clauses removed from con- tracts; it wishes players travelling expenses paid to and from. their homes and to and from the training camps. Minor league magnates de- clare that such an obligation would be nothing sort of financial suicide. From the Class A leagues down these minor leagues at the moment have their eyes turned to the four Class AA circuits for redress. Reép- resentation on the National Com- mission is one of the chief alterna- tives of peace. For the first time in history a minor league has defied the authority of the National 'Commis- sion. At the annual meeting of the In- ternational Leagye held to-day at the Hotel Imperial, President Bar- row was instructed to inform the triumvirate point blank that its award to Charles 'H. Ebbets would not be paid. It was further learned fro! of] unimpeachable guthority th the 'Pacific Coast League would" operate without protection next season if the major leagues refused to the minors their desired bone of ihe she. in the highest court of. the .
