According to tha artlcUa of agreement, ' hey art to walgh In 10 mlnutaa be , fore tha beginning of tha bout, -and It la good batting that Billy Nolan will ee that that particular, SO mlnutaa la 1 ' ' Juat ona half hour. Nolan la by large . i odds tha ahrewdei t of preaent day man , ' agera, yet- In hla ahrawdnaaa there la . hone of that low cunning which paaaea ' 'for bualneaa acumen with other more ., soluble and leaa brainy managara. In the flrat place he knowa the capacity of hla man; what ha can give and what he can take, and he alwaya haa a pretty ' fair Una on the capabllltlea of tha other ' "fallow.

Xn1ted om Blag-elde. ; " : i Nolan'a Inalatence upon 131 pound. ' weigh in at thrlngtd, bid fair for a while to cause a break In the negotla ,tlona, . .Tha San Franclaco ' papara got ', after him for not agreeing to acale at ' Itl at I o'clock In the afternoon (aa ..aumtng then that the bout would be -pulled oft at night), but Nolan paid no attention to the criticism. He knew c that the Qana people wanted the match, and that It would be only a queatlon of tlm. when they would , agree to any term that he might dictate. Tha re j suit waa a vindication, of hie Judgment If a match well made la half won, then ' Nelson la already half over the plate. Not on! j did Nolan have hla way on the weight queatlon. but he dictated the only financial erm upon which he " would conaent to Nelaon meeting Gana. Win or lose the Dan I to get 120.000 of the tso.ooo. Oana pulling down the mother $10,000. Kolas' WlM Mora. .' Thoa familiar with tha performance ef the proapectlve conteatanta will agree that It waa a wlae move on Nolan' part to atlck out for rlngalde weighing In. Ulvrn the privilege of weighing 111 pounds alx or eevan hour before the . time aet for tha bout. Oana would have gone Into the ring scaling very close to ( $10 pound. Nelaon would have been himself somewhat heavier than ill. but la gain would have been more of a hindrance than a help. It will be the .other way with Oana now.. Ha . will .doubtlese scale at 111 pounda, all right, but It will be at the expense of hi ' strengtb-nnd-atamlna. Juat aa the extra pound added will stop tha gameit thor. oughbred that ever looked through a bridle, ao will a pound or so off weaken a boier trying to go below hla beat fighting weight. In hi effort to do , the weight impoaed by Tim Callahan . for their go at Industrial hall., Willie Fltsgerald had to fairly atarve him- .: eelf. In the Interval between weighing in ana. going into the ring. Fitigerald .tried to regain hi atrength by bolting a ainoin a tea a, rrencn rrled potatoes, a double order of canned California . peaches, and two bottles ef Base. Of course, be waa practically a dead ona not -likely, that Qana would make such dietary blunders, but there is no. natural aay by-whlch-in a half hour na ran regain tha atrength ha muat necessarily lota by 'coming down to tha Wa'ght 'stipulated. ' r ' Bow Velsoa Bteada. o far a Nelson la concerned tha weight should be Juat right.' H has taken on rohalderable flesh since hi Victory over Britt. and though he ought be able to render a good account of himself below the 10 mark, h will be easier and more contented at 111. He will have tha advantage of rugged neaa and hitting ability over Oana. for in hla bout a her at the National the latter plainly showed that ha ha loat hla wallop. Aa to cleverness, there la nothing to It but Oana. There never waa a hotter two-handed lighter In his day, but hla warmeat admirer will not maintain that he ha not gone back. .This 'natural decadence coupled with the weakness effects of the reduction process should make Gana an easy proposition if the bout goea over six or eight rounds. Hla on chance to win la on, a knockout right early in tha u- pion. ' : BecauaeKelaon la to receive the lion' hare of the puree Irrespective of the Outcome of the bout many regard tha match with ausplclon. There la not the slightest reason for anticipating any thing not on tne level at leaat so far aa Nelaon la concerned. ' Nolan, having thsatar, naa a ngni to exact tha big end of tha purse. With whom ontalde ef Nelaon could Oana figure in 110,000 puraaT Saa X ,th Oard. Nelaon la the card, and will continue to be the pard until he 4a atopped by om youngater a yet unknown. Now la tha t'-n for hlna to m v coin, and ft won't be billy Nolan' ' fault if he doesn't. So far aa I can sea the only chase for a Job would be offered If the port showed any disposition to bet on the number of rouada. That would give the Oan follower a "chance to frame up ' something to make a bit of ur money. Juat aa they did In the Oana Britt affair. But unleaa Oan I an utter fool, he will gtv the back ef hi hand to the bunch of sure-thing players who have profited . by hi weaknea In tha paat, and fight thia fight on the level. If he la beaten ha can attribute his defeat to hla inability, to do the weight, and oonflno his operations thereafter to the welterweight class, in whloh h properly belonga. : SPORTING GOSSIP. .

' Harvey, 'one a pitcher, waa put at third , base for Detroit . Harvey could hit but h couldn't field much, and tha compllcatlona of Infield' play war too much for him. Whit Stocking war on flrat and aecond,- with none out and Datroit decided to make a play which la common enough when a bunt Is expected. The third baseman waa to play in cloae, a If for the bunt, the aecond baseman and shortstop were to hold the runner close to second. When tha - batter bunted the third baaeman waa to turn and cover third qyickly, the flrat baaeman or pitcher getting the ball and throwing tha runner out at third. ' Harvey knew the play.' When Holme bunted. Harvey turned like a flash and daahed backward toward third. It hap pened that the hit waa a short pop fly tralght at Harvey, whose back; Of oourse, was turned. The ball struck him on the top of the head, bounded up, and Harvey.'wlthout turning caught it. and then, whirling, completed the double play at second, r The Multnomah club football men are busily engaged In studying the new football rules.
