that continent, he came to the United
States in the early 00 'a.
Ia this country he won the middle
weight title from Jack Dempsey, the
light heavyweight title from George
Gardner, and the heavyweight belt from
Jim Corbett. He lost the latter cham
pionship when he was knocked out by
Jict Jeffries.
"Tough," Jeff exclaimed. "Poor old
Bob."
"Say something nice to him for me,

Jeffries Pays Tribute.
Barbank, Cal., Oct. 19. Big Jim Jef

heavyweight championship when Bob
Pttasimmona fell before his mighty fiats
today ia in Bob's corner, "pulling"
for him in his biggest fight, against
death.
Jeffries plainly was affected when
a United Press correspondent told him
his old friend and one time opponent
lay dying in Chicago. He hadn't heard,
engrossed in his farming here, doing
his agricultural "bit" for Uncle Bam.

New York, Oct. 19. "Fltz can put
up a mighty battle and even death will
find hhn a hard man to handle," said
Jim Corbett, when informed of Robert
i it zsimmons ' illness today.
"You can't call it a knockout till
the last count and it's when things look
the blackest and his opponent is smash

com oa to his rescue.
"If his friends have "given up, I
shall not.
" If death conquers in this. battle, the

"I can remember how he fought.
Even if he did win the championship
from me, he did it fairly and square

Great Bout Tonight
New York. Oct. 19. Benny Leonard,
lightweight champion, sets out tonight
to eonquer a new world. New York is
expecting the greatest bout of the year
when the Harlemite meets Jack lint

ally of championship caliber jiimself

tho fight by which Ted Lewis grabbed
his title. He will weigh 139 pounds and
insisted today that the effort had not

Both men are firmly confident, Leon

miles from Petrograd. Before the war
Bevel was classified as a naval sta
tion of the second class, but under the
czar's regime it was strengthened and
re-fortified.
The great stations command the Gulf
of Finland for Russia and constitute de
fenses to Petrograd Bevel, Viborg and
Cronstadt. Helsingfor fi likewise an im
portant base. That Bussia should relin
quish Bevel without striking a blow
in its defense, so far as dispatches have
indicated, apparently indicates realiza
tion by Petrograd of the great strength
of the German attacking fleet and fear
of a flanking attack on the station
which might be made by landing of Ger
man troops opposite Moon islaud. .
Great German Fleet

in the waters just adjacent to the gulf
of Biga. Berlin claimed to have bottled
up these vessels completely. Petrograd
indicated a belief in the marine depart
ment that there might yet be escape.
Not ony do the Germans now ontrol
Oesel and Dago islands, but they have
apparently seized also the island of
Moon, thus occupying all of the barrier
islands at the mouth of the Gulf of
Biga. From these as bases, it was be
lieved here today, Germany plans a
powerful naval campaign to bottle up
the entire Kussian rieet in tne uuir or
Finland, or, further than that, a pow
erful offensive against Viborg, Bevel,
Cronstadt and Petrograd Itself. Such a
naval offensive against the Russian cap
ital has been preparing for months.
All Petrograd dispatches reeeived
here have emphasized that the German
fleet has convoyed but very few troops
if any. Presumably the invading force
on Oesel, Dago and Moon was of sail
ors. Germany cannot now spare a aingla
man from any battle front for the Rus
sian campaign and this fas a factor
which encouraged observers here to op
timism. Latest dispatches indicated the Ger
man naval fleet waa composed of ap
proximately sixty vessels three times
as great a force as the Russian defend
ing squadron.
