" with data to aid KLAM'GOORT, BOUT Middleweight Championship of America but Not of World at Stake. GIBBONS IS CONSIDERED Carpenlier Beat of Foreign Fig-htcr t Weight Freddy AVclah Re covering; From Affliction Which Disabled Him. BY T. S. ANDREWS. MILWAUKEE. Wis.. March 30. (Special. The matrhlng of Eddy Mc Goorty and Frank Klaus, at Pan Fran cisco will go a long ways towards settling the middleweight champion ship proposition. This contest is an nounced as being for. the champion ship of the world, but this Is wrong, for It can only be for thehamplonship of America. The time has passed when the Americans have absolute control , over the various classes In boxing, and now they must consider other countries as being in the race for titles. England. FTance and Australia have champions In the middleweight class, who are entitled to a try for the world's title, and tintil we can develop a man who can win from the various cham pions, it will be a hard matter to crown the American champion of the world. However, we are getting to a point now where a real American champion will bo developed and recognized, and It will be an easy matter then to settle the world's title. ' The defeat of Hugo Kelly by Eddy McGoorty had a great deal to do with clearing the atmos phere in the middleweight division, and now that McGoorty Is to meet Frank Klaus. It will about settle matters, for the winner of this contest can claim the title In America and defend It against all comers. There Is no doubt that Jack Dillon and several other mlddlewelghts have alright challenge for the title, but It Is tlrst necessary to create a cham Tilon. and then have him defend It With Mike Gibbons entering the mid dlewelght division there will be a great deal of interest created thereby, for It will mean that the St. Paul boy will ha matched with the winner of the Klaus-McGoorty battle. Gibbons has finally made up his mind to get out of the welterweight ranks and take on 158 pounders. A battle ne tw-een McGoorty and Gibbons should prove one of the best attractions In the country, for both are clever ana have different styles of fighting. With a recognized champion of Aroer. lea. It will then be up to the man hold ing the title to get busy and match up with the champions- ot r ranee ana England. Gorges Carpentler. the French cham- olon. will nrobably be the hardest man to beat, and there is a possibility of the Frenchman capturing the world's championship for tho middleweight class. It will really not be necessary to bother about the British title at the present time, as Carpenlier recent ly won that from Jim Sullivan, and If the American champion can defeat the Frenchman, he will be killing two birds with one stone. Freddy Welsh, the English light weight, who was matched with Ad olgast for the world's championship at Lob Angeles, but lost his chance through the Illness of .the champion at that time, is now undergoing treat ment at a sanitarium In Chicago. Welsh was the victim of a peculiar accident, but he Is confident now that the trouble will be overcome and that he will soon be able to engage In contests with the best lightweights in the country, Freddy always had an idea that tt was his bark that was injured, but from an-examination in Chicago it has developed that the real source of trouble is a small nerve at the top. of the spine, which can be remedied through proper massaging of that part. Freddy has been at the sanitarium 10 davs. and he feels greatly Improved, and has becvn assured by the doctors In charge that in another two or throe weeks he will be over it entirely. I had a talk, with him the other day. and In the conversation he remarked: "It haa been very costly to me. since the Wolgast affair, as 1 have had to give up several good contests. However, I am on the road to recovery now. and from the way I feel I know I will be able to resume boxing In a short time. I expect to get out about April 10.. and will bricln doing llght exercise and boxing. 1 hope to be able to arrange a few limited-round bouts the latter part of April, after which I will get In shape for some real hard contests. My aim will then be to get on a match with Wolaast for the title, and also a return battle with Matt Wells, who de feated me on points in England a year ago." . Billy Tapke. the ex-middleweight champion, refuses to be counted out. After his defeat at the hands of Frank Mantell, In California, he returned to his home In Kewaunee. Ill, and thought over matters for a week or two. He finally came to the conclusion that he was not a "haa-been." and decided to get down to bard work and permit his brother. Ed, to negotiate matches for him once more, with a view of working Into some big middleweight contest i had a letter from Ed the other day In which he says: "This may surprise you, but it Is on the level. Billy haa decided to get Into real condition, and as a starter be has taken up light training here. I know myself that he haa never been In proper shape for a match eince he returned from Europe last Summer, and that if he will only get down to hard work and condition himself, he will be able to hold his own with any of the mlddlewelghts. Why, he is only a young man yet. not even in his prime, and there is no reason on earth why' he should be relegated to the rear at this stage. I expect that after April 1 he will be In condition to take on some short bouta, and then if he shows well, he can continue right along the line. I feel confident myself that he can show his euperlorlty over the bunch of middleweight now claim ing the title, and If he cannot, why be will be ready to throw up both hands and admit that he is down and out, The Australian tour of Cyclone John ny Thompson this season, haa not been a particularly brilliant one, and the chances are the Sycamore boy will not return to the United States with the honors he did In H1L Johnny has met defeat In most of his matches while abroad, but in all fairness to the Illinois lad It must be said that he has gone out of his class in every match he entered into. He gave away weight when he fought Dave Smith, again when the met Hanesman Rice, and also when he met Jack lister, the white hope'' whom Tommy Burns brought out. From the accounts of the last battle. Lester won on points after a hard contest of .10 rounds, but the weights were -very much la favor of IMPORTANT Burns' protege, as Johnny weighed on ly 15, and Lester 17S. This la quite a handicap for a boxer of Thompson's build, and It is not to be wondered at that he was beaten on points over there. Had he been meeting men of his own weight there might bo a dif ferent story to tell. If it, were not for the fact that Thompson Is well along In years, be would no doubt be one of the real contenders for the middle weight title, but age has told on Jim my, even with his excellent physique and wonderful stamina, and the chances are he will soon be ready to enter the retired list. EXCHANGE IS COMPLIMENTED Arrival of Bear After Quick Trip Reported In Three Minutes. Three minutes after the steamer Bear was reported arriving at Pan Fran cisco Friday afternoon the informa tion was received at Ainsworth dock through the medium of the Merchants Exchange, that E. W. Wright, manager of the Exchange, waa a passenger on the Bear, and it Is assumed that the skipper wanted to demonstrate the sys tem of reporting vessels and sent word ahead. But at any rate. Fred Clark, who presides over the Exchange during the absence of Mr. Wright, is being talked of in flattering vein by the steamship representatives for his promptness in forwarding the Information. There are plans under consideration of increas ing the efficiency of the Exchange in this territory through a more extensive system of reporting vessels on the river and while at San Francisco Mr. Wright will ascertain If the organization there has Introduced any departure in gath ering marine movements.

Sec. ington, or In Idaho or in laano or in ine srei i country to the south Here are the names of the buyers and here are the Instruments each pur chaser secured: Eilers Music House has for years been selling: more than double the number of pianos that are sold by all other dealers and agencies in this state and Washington combined. This is because Eilers Music House fur nishes instruments of greatest merit at prices less than obtainable else where. Nothing unworthy in material, design or workmanship ever finds place- among Eilers Music House stocks. No transaction great or small is ever right with Eilers Music House unless it means positive satisfaction to the buyer. Eilers Music House is the only concern In this line of business posi tively agreeing to refund all money paid in case Instruments after delivery are not found absolutely satisfactory or in every way as represented. This is the reason it is so difficult for Intending purchasers who "look around" to find any good word ever spoken for Eilers Music House and Eilers Music House's pianos and player pianos and organs by people who are almost hopelessly endeavoring to com pete with Eilers Music House ann tne money-saving Methods Eilers Music House enjoys and shares with its pa trons. We have frequently stated and. again wish to reiterate that one can hardly expect from people who have instru ments of their own to sell to hear of the good qualities of Chiokering. and Kimball and Sohmer and Hazelton and Lester pianos, and the Autopiano and the beautiful player piano de luxe, and all of the other many fine makes sold by Eilers Music House It is almost in variably the case that the most care ful buyers and committees, after closest investigation and comparison, place their orders with Eilers Music House, and this is because they in variably find they can always do bet ter at Eilers than elsewhere. Thus it is that sixty-seven fine in struments were sold by Eilers Music House during the past two days, as follows: A superb Checkering ma hoganv baby upright to Miss C. Ber nice Cone; another superb Chickering mottled walnut baby upright to L. A. Lovegren; another fancy mahogany Chickering quarter grand to F. E. De Lonr: still another magniticent luipk ering baby grand to Dr. A. V. Nemiro: a superb mottled oak inuu player Piano de luxe to Mrs. W. S. Holt; an other, same stvle. to C. W.
