TO MEET MTARLAND KETCH EL WILLING TO FIGHT LANG FORD By Will X Stettecy. 6an Franclaco, Oct. 10. That Battling Nelson and Packey McFarland will meet In the ring at Jim Coffroth'a Mission street arena on the afternoon of New Year's day seems assured. After hold ing hla peace and crying for the last month for a reat, the champion baa at laat decided to accommodate the stock yard'g rrlde and aa New Tear'a day seems the moat available date, Cof froth wanta to stage 'the great match thn To Willla Brltt la given all the credit for winning the Battler over. The first thing that he did upon his arrival in Chicago waa to hunt Nelson up, talk the matter over with him land finally convince him that the best thing he could do would be to take McFar land on at the earliest opportunity and then, in the event of his winning, re tire from the game on the aame footing aa the champion of them all, Jim Jef- ' Nelson hates to get back Into the ring now and nobody can blame hlrn. He la picking up a cool hundred a week at the prepent time, doing soft theatri cal turna'in and about Chicago. Thus, far, the Dane has averaged something like 11.000 a week and, strange 10 say. he has proved to be a treat drawini if A,r thrmicrhoiit tha middle west. Al ' theao tilings tended to make him a bit stage strucK ana 11 is imeiy ui uu not Rrltt stolen his goat, the Dane might bft figuring tn devising ways anil means to outrival the fame of Richard Mansfield or E. H. Sothern. If the men fight, it will have to be a forty-five round affair.- There Is nothing else to It. NelBon la a long route boy and will take no other dis tance. McFarland did a lot of stalling about twenty-five rounds, but as aoon as he realized that his only chance to get a match with the champion was to come to the lattcr's terms, ha very readily came down a notch This Is the battle that all flghtdom has been looking forward to slnoe Nel son laid Gans low last Fourth of July. The following mooting between the men nmourit'rl to nothing, for the reason that Gans wsft in and anybody could t ihut Nelson must win unless he pulled and he never did anything like that In his life. If McFarland cannot beat Nelson, then none or tne iigni welghta has a look In and the cham pion slmplv will have to quit the ring for lack of an opponent worthy of bis skUl. Word comes from over the pond that nnr r.ondon brothers will soon have v. tn ,wl Ilmmv Rrltt and Nel son hook up In a short bout. This Is a funny one. but bad as it sounds, they declare that It is the real dope and that the match will be brought off within the next month or so, provided of course tnal jimmy ma uvu wim It was' the genius of brother Willis who brougat anout hub iicb. sensation.

Burna' 'reeeneJWlumphai In the land f th. TTnlonfa evidently . has con vinced the Brltt brothera that the coin ia very soft and mushy there. They know only too well that no American popu lace would atand for Brltt and Nel son after they already met four times. But in England, the game muat be far easier and the BritU are the verr best who can find out such t condition If there la a alngle chance. against Moran. when he played the safe came and refuaed to atve the fans run put the crusher on his chances of every proving a star in a local ring, Drlscoll is the recognised teatner weleht king of Encrland. though Moran claims the title. Driscoll hna a decis ion over Moran and he has also knocked out every other little fellow on the other aide of the pond. He has never foueht in the United States and there fore, he.flgures to be a big card If a suitable opponent can be dug up for him. Driscoll will try his hand at the six round game in New York ana fan adelphia. When he learned that Stanley Ketcbel had withdrawn the color line and would agree to meet him here. Bam Lngrora, th formidable Boston DiacK iignter. Immediately notified the San Franc'eco promoters that he wanted no lesa than S2.600 car rare to mane tne trip to oan Francisco. This Is some speed for a ham and egg fighter. He did not aay whether he Intended coming here Dy way of the Sues canal or chartering a couple of Harrlman's private cara, but he wanta j2,tou anynow. Ketchel seems to te getting very brave now that he has dropped several nicks In public favor. Two months ago, when he was at the height of his ca reer, he spurned an offer of 110,000 to meet Lansrford. win. lose or draw, and added that he had drawn the color lln forever. But as soon as he realized that he wai no longer the bright twinkling etar of the mlddlewelgbts, Ketchel agreed to box Langford as soon as he disposed of Papke when they meet here next month. Thia Is some talk, especially after the fine trimming which Papke gave Ketchel a month ago In Loa Angeles and the majority of thos who saw tho fight believe that the Illinois thunder bolt will repeat next time. It looks like a good even bet, however, that the man who puta the first wallop across will get the com. Both aro sluggers who know nothing save take a chance and these sort of men never last long In any ring. h ras UP BY HUBDREDS Oklahoma Mecca of Sports- men Who Would Kill Big Game-Together. Charley Harvey, manager of Owen Moran, aeema to hava the Indian sign on all the British boxera who come to the United Statea and the other day aa aoon aa Jim Drlacoll. tha champion featherweight or tne ontisn rivod Harvev aulcklr grabbed him and now be la engaged- In the strenuous task of matching Jim with our own This, however, undoubtedly will prova a far more arduous Job than Harvey ever dreamed of. The San Franclaco people aimply will not atand for Abe any more. They have seen too much of hla stalling tactics lately and they are thoroughly dlaguated with him. Abe would not draw any mor money nm than a lackrahblt. Hla laat appearance The fight game Is none too arood In San Franclaco at present and tho aen- eral Impression among the knowing ones is mat it win infie away gradually un less some new faces are Introduced Into tho arena very quickly. The public la ratner weary oi seeing tne same old ones over and over again and eonse quently, the houses which turn out are getting slimmer and slimmer with each llgnt. Good fighters are extremely hard to find and when a promoter does dig up a live one, the latter as a rule holds out ror a guarantee sufficient to swamp the promoter before he has his hall raid for. All the recent fights, save hose which Coffroth promoted, were bloomers and instead of maklna money. the men who ran the attractions lost every time, except In the case of the neicnei-xnoniaa encounter, wnen Jack Oleason did manage to pull out a few dollars to the crood. It Is not stranaa unaer tneae circumstances that there are so few 8 porta who want to crush In aa promoters, though a year ago the wooas were run or tnem. (United Preu Leed Wire.)

Jimmy McAleer of the St. Louis Amer icana has succeeded In doing what no other manager ever did taming the wild and woolly George Edward Waddell. Here is the secret which no other man ager was ever able to solve with rela tion to the erratic "Rube."

Value of Cross Country Bnnnlng One Of the odd things about athletics on the Pacific coast ia the dearth of rood distance runners. The climate is deal west of the mountains for the developing of high class middle and long distance runners, and vet the Pa cific coast haa produced very few men or great aDiuty in tnese events, nurd. leis, jumpers, sprinters and weight inrowers or splendid ciaas nave received their training in this section of the country but It Is only occasionally that a man Is found who can run tho mile under 4:40. This Is doubtless due to the fact that enough Interest is not taken in races of the longer dlstancea. Cross country running Is one of the best sports for the developing of men ror tne nair mile, and as both O. A u. and uregon nave organized cross country clubs, It may be expected to see runners of class in the longer dis tances developed in the next few sea sons, Clothes are the kind you should have all wool fabrics, thoroughly well tail ored. They wear better and look better, and keep it 'up longer than any other clothes. Fall Suits :o 145 Other Good Makes $12.50 to $20 $20 Copyrickt 191 kr Han Sckaflnu tc Mars Sam'l Rosenblat Go.

It will doubtless be round that all ?reat distance men have received a arge part of their training In cross country running. It Is persistent, con tinuous, year in and year out running over the road that makes England strong In the distance runs and as the uregon climate is very similar to th English climate, and because It is pos slble to run ' out of doors all of the year, there Is no question but that the next few years will see some of the beat distance men this country has ever developed coming from this state.

GREATER COAST LEAGUE IS CAST FOR YEAR OF 1910 mam m Ban Francisco, Oct 10. The Pacific Coast league will be made up of six clubs next season and all the- talk about eight teams or the possibility of Port land running out and Joining forces with the Northwestern league does not go. This comes right off the bat from Pres ident Ewlng and when he spoke the other day, he declared his utterances were voicing tho sentiments of the other officers and magnates of the league. Kwlntr has abandoned nis idea or rorc- ing Manager Dugdale of Seattle into line and Instead of attempting to fight him. Kwine will enter Into an agree ment with him whereby a big combina tion will be brought on in the year 1910. According to Ewlng, Dugdale has agreed to this. When the big deal has been made, the hopes of Ewlng will have been realized and the Paclflo Coast league circuit win comprise eignt dues five California teams and three In the northwest. At present, Seattle is sure to break In while both Tacoma rinid Spo kane hava a chance with the odds about even up. Ewlng realizes that the placing of th two additional clubs In California is only an experiment and he knows ' full well that he will be forced to ditch one of them if they dc not make good from the outset. With this end in view, Ewlng will stand ready to favor the admission of Seattle, Spokane and Ta coma in 1910. Should this bet Drought about, then the north will be on an equal rooting with .California and each sec tton will have lta four clubs In the field and a well balanced league will be tne result. , When the case comes up before the national commission next month, Ewlng will lay these facta before the big body, lie win not be there as a rignt er. but rather as an arbitrator and a peacemaker. Instead of carrying the battle to Seattle and attempting to rout Dugdale. the California magnate will waive all claim to the Seattle fran chise and then make his explanations to tne memoers or tne commission. The big fight looks like, the one that Is likely to be waged (between tho coast league and the California State league and Ewlng hopes that ha. will be able to bring that outlaw body into the fold under the head of a class B league.
