Jess Willard ad- Ln,itted today that his contemplated re turn to the ring would net at least a million dollars for the Bed Cross the profits from a Bingle fight. The champion said he thought the pro ceeds from the movies of tne bout if they are allowed would amount to that i much, in fact, while the fight itself j would draw one of the biggest " gates "j of all time. f : Jess was in a regular evatauguay mood throughout his interview with the i United Press, "I don't care," was the' motto of his entire discourse. j He'll fight anybody, anywhere, any! time just so it is not before next sum-1 nier; and under any conditions just so the public is pleased. He prefers a1 big city, however, as he believes if t he -fight were held in a small place, that million dollars might Buffer. Just at this juncture, Jess received a: telegram signed the "Chamber of Com-; merce of Sacramento, Gal." inviting the! champion to stage his bout in that city, j offering two blocks of the capital ex-j tension grounds for an arena, and prom ising an attendance of 8O,00U. It mum- ated that the invitation might be sup-'. Copenhagen, Dee. 18 Former Prem plemented by a personal invitation from ier Kerensky has appeared near retro Governor Stephens. ! grad at the" head of several thousand Fights in California are limited to troops, according to a dispatch via four rounds, but it was pointed out that! Haparanda printed today in the Ber a special dispensation might be ob-1 'inestidente taiued, inasmuch as the entire receipts would be devoted to a war charitv. Willard "didn't care" if the "fight were held in Sacramento but he would prefer a bigger city. And about an opponent. Oh, anybody; Jess "didn't care" about that, either. Fred Fulton? "All right fine!" Jess thinks Fulton is "a. big fellow, with a good publicity agent probably the logical man." Jess was ' ' surprised ' ' to hear that Fred had claimed the title. Then, there's Georges Carpentier, the French champion, "who would draw a big crowd." Jess said lie weighs about 255 or 2(50 "about 20 pounds overweight". Anyway, he looks as big as a moun tain, and soft, awfully soft. As for quitting the ring he has "no idea of doing so; either now or in the near future." Neither did he have any intention of joining the army at least "not at this time." He is over the draft age. Sacramento Awaits. . Sacramento, Cat, Dec. 18; The cham ber of commerce today is awaiting re ply from Jess Willard, world's cham pion heavyweight fighter, who last night was" invited in a telegram sent by the chamber to stage' a Bed Cross benefit boxing bout in Sacramento. The chamber of commerce promised Willard an attendance of 80,000, if he would come to Sacramento and said that the state four round limit law could be set aside bv special dispensa Hon because the fight would be for war charity. The tplesrram was sent to Willard now in I lncago, wnon it was n-aiueu that he had announced his willingness to re-enter tho ring for the benefit of the Bed Cross. DIED AT EUGENE. Mrs. Iva E.

District At torney- Charles M. Fickert s methods in prosecuting the preparedness parane Kr,H went to the voters or fan Francisco todav for indorsement or dis approval. On this issue hangs the ques tion whether Fickert is to be reeall? as district attorney at the polls. Fbkert's principal opponent in to day's recall election is Charles A. Sweigert, who Fickert defeated at the last regular election. Frank P. Haynes is the third candidate. During the pre election campaign, which has been ex ceedingly bitter, Fickert has taken a stand upon the correctness of his ac tions in prosecuting Tom Mooney and his alleged accomplices in the bomb cases. Colonel Boosevelt's indors.-ent of Fickert and his statement that Fickert 's recall will hearten "every anarchist and red flag asitator in the country," has been widely used by the district' attorney. Sweiei'rt. in campaign speeches, has 'bitcrlv tta-ked Fickert 's conduct of the bomb cases, having stresed the alleged "frame up" of testimony, by Frank C. Oxmnn, and Fickert 's refus al to Tolease Mrs. Bona Mooney and Israel Weinburg on bail, after both had been acquitted on oie charee of murder in connection with the cases.

KERENSKY HEADS LARGE FORCE NEAR CAPITAL LATEST ADVICES SAY Former Premier Bids Fair to Come Into Power As Bols heviki Crumbles Away The dispatch asserted that the Bols- heviki had sent out armed forces to meet this newest counter revolution against them. Whether there has been any actual fighting between the two sides was not stated. Kerenskv was Inst reported in a lit- I tie village in Finland, to which he had escaped de.spite a price on his head set by the Trot.sky-Lenine government. Becent elections to the constituent assembly showed that the former prem ier had been elected to that body by the city of Samara-as well as by the southeastern troops. Vnited Presa dispatches today from Stockholm, from its staff correspond ent, Joseph Shaplen, showed that the Bolsheviki regime was fast crumbling away. With Kerensky. reported in the fiele., there are now apparently two separate and distinct couitter-rcvolutionary movements being waged against the Bolsheviki. One is the Cossack-Cadet party re volt, under Genesals Galedines and Korniloff, which is operating for the most part in southeastern Russia. The second the Kercneky move. Th above report does not indicate flie source of the former premier's strength. He may have joined with the Cossack rebels or he may be heading a separate revolt of the social democrats and the Bnssianlabor party. The Cossack revolt has been repudi ated by the socialist democrats despite the latter 's intense desire to see the Bolsheviki unseated because of suspic ion that the monarchists are behind Kaledines and Kornilofff. PROBE OF AFFAIRS CONTINUES Congressman McCormick Tells of Conditions On French War Front Washington, Pee. S. Unwilling to be delayed by the inability of Colonel E. N. Lewis, machine gun inventor, to appear today, the senate military prob ers this afternoon s immoned Congress man Medill Mel oniiick. Illinois, and resumed their- investigations in execu tive session. Henry Gatling, son of the late.B. J. Gatling. inventor of the Gatling gun, also testified- McCormick. who visited the Euro pean battlefields, discussed conditions at the front. He nbo was asked as to equipment of American troops sent abroad and said that with the excep tion of one. body of Sammies sent across, all were completely equipped as far as he could learn. This contin gent was without an adequate supply of overcoats, he said. Gatling, who, with his father, was , in close touch wita the war machines of England, Germany, Italy and other huropenn nations, showed by compar- j ison, it is sain, where the American : war department was lacking, especially j in ordnance.
