DE LONG. The last obstacles that threatened to in terfere with the application of the universal rules as adopted by the L. M. Y. A.

during the winter were removed yesterday when the executive committee of that body met in a special session and agreed on plats for measuring the boats without working too great a hardship on some of the cubs interested In the rule to a lesser extent than Others As a result of the meeting it seems likely the Columbia and Jackson Park clubs will follow the example of the Chicago Yacht club and run its coming races under the new rules. something they had refused to do following the adoption of the formula by the L. IL T. A. Assess to Pay Expenses.

Under the agreement arrived at all of the clubs will tither pay their share of the nc-ceseery expenses or will have them paid bs members of such organizations seeking barmonlr among the different clubs. Fred Weed assumed the obligations of the White Lake club, which stood out under the excuse that it had no boats of a size to bring under the rules. while James B. Keogh of the Chicago Yacht club agreed to pay the assessment of the Milwaukee Yacht clubs which made the same argument The expenses involved in weighing the boats of the local fleets will be about MO. to which the L.

M. Y. A. pays S100. Each of the nine clubs In the organization is to nay 110.

while the owners of the boats will pay about $4 each when the weighing is done. The necessary balance is to be raised by subscription among the clubs. C. V. Kraft has been appointed ofincial measurer and weigher and he will at once order steel yards with which to do the work.

which cannot be carried out until all of the boars are in commission. BY JOECt G. DE LONG. 'he last obstacles that threatened to in. fer ith the arplication of the universal Reduction of Price of Pasteboards to $5 to $50 Gives Bout Boost.

after disposing of his farm at Benton Harbor, returned to Chicago yesterday an will have a conference with Champion Jack Johnson tomorrow morning to make final arrangements for training the negro for his fight with Jeffries on July 4. The former midsileweight champion believes Johnson should, get down to bard training at once. for he expects Jeffries to be in pretty fair shape for the Independence day mill. Tommy knows Jeffries about as well as any fighter in the country and ne has a deep gard for the Californian's Advises Early Training. -I think Johnson Ehould begin training pretty soon." Ryan said In talking about the fight.

I think Jeffries will be in good shape by the time ot the fight and Johnson will have I be in trim to his title. Jeffries is doe ing just the sort of work to fit himseit. and if he can get right the work he is doing and which he will continue to do up to the time of the battle will bring this about. Jeffries is a big. strong fellow.

and so is Johnson. and I think it is Just going to be a. question of condition as to who is going to win this fight. We all know Jeffries' ability to assimilate punishment and he will be in shape to take it by July 4 You notice he is not doing an.Ishing in the show business. but is sawing and cutting wood and doing other thirgs to gradually harden his muscles and improve his wind.

Meets Johnson Tomorrow. "I intend to have a talk with Johnson tomorrow morning about training him for this fight. You remember we talked over the proposition before, but we have never reached an agreement. I will have an undenstandiag with him tomorrow. and if he agrees to listen to my dictates I will start him in training at once.

By this I don't mean bard training. but I think he should be doing some work to get into shape." Ryan believes he has the coming worldii heavyweight champion in Con O'Kelly, the Irish harp who came over here froM the Emerald isle to get Gotchs wrestling crown. Ryan saw in the Irishman the makings of a tighter. and be is giving him instructions daily in the fighting game. Tommy asserts Con was quick to grasp things, and he expects to make quite a tighter out of him.

Champion Jack Johnson closed his last theatrical engagement in Chicago before the time of the fight last night at the Alhambra theater. Jack was given a great reception by people of his race. He will start hard work tomorrow at his home on the south side and Will leave for his quarters at Ocean Beach on the coast about the middle of the month.

Otto Lange. repreesnting the Vorwaerts Turnvereln, won two of the three fencing finals of the Illinois division of the Amateur Fencers' league of America tournament held last night in the Illinois Athletie club gYmnasium. Lange carried of the honors in the fell and saber competition but only after some of the hardest fought contests seen On a local floor. In the foil competition it was recessary to hold three rounds.

owing to two ties. In the first O. C. Haler of the A. C.

fell by the wayside. but Lange, G. K. Freibert of the Chicago Turngemeinde. and A.

E. Sauer of the I. A. tied with two victories and one defeat each. The second round resulted the same, but in the next sett Lange won by straight victories.

Sauer took second place and Freibert third. Two Rounds in Saber Event Two rounds were necessary to decide the winner in the saber event. owing to a tie. Lange won by defeating W. Opitz of the Vorwaerts Turnverein.

Sauer, the national champion. in this event fell far below his form and the best he could do was to tie for third place with J. W. Knox of the A. C.

In the contest to decide the position two Ilea resulted, but in the third encounter Knox defeateds the former titleholder by a small margin. W. F. Grebe of the I. A.

and national champion. found little trouble in winning the dueling sword competition. winning the event in the first round. The other three contestants tied for second place and in the matches to decide Freibert won second place and Knox third. Medals for the Winners.

Gold medals were given to the winners of first places, sliver to the second. and bronze ta the third place winners.

CHESTER KRUM WINS HANDICAP. SWEDISH RUNNER WINNER OF THE NEW YORK MARATHON. cently lit Pittsburg. of which one of the leading New York newssapert raid. Ketchel was barely saved from defeat by superior ring generalship." reminds me of the fact we are likely to have with us again at an early date one who may be considared a promising contender for the middleweight championship.

That is Billy Papke. the" Illinois Thunderbolt." Papke Coming Again. Papke recently put Willie Lewis away In three rounds in Paris. which. taken Into consideration with their els round no decision bout in Pittsburg last October and a similar bout the foroving month with Klaus in the tame city.

would look as If Papke had been coming on while Ketchel bad been standing still. As between Lewis and Parke there Isn't much to say In a serious way. From where we sit it looks as If a clever promoter had made Lewis a vehicle for commercial purposes. and I notice that those who fell for the scheme are now turning it oiT as a joke. Papke is a fichter I4or whom Ketchel must have some respect and when Billy gets home and sees how things have been going of late.

he Is likely to force Ketchel Into a contest. I hope. therefor. Stanley will cut out the high spots and get hack into his old form soon as he has promised to do. The Finder assault case which brougbt Johnson from Chicago to New York recently Is likely to cause a lot of annoyance not to mention the great financial outlay In various directions.

When Johnson arrived here It was found the little negro Pinder had disappeared along with some of the witnesses. Thetudge Intimated that Johnson must know the reason for this disappearance and continued the case. which means another trip here. Hopes Zohnson Will Behave. bear Johnson expects now to go to the coast about April 15 to begin his training.

but I am afraid his legal troubles In the east may prove a handicap. although I sincerely hope that beyond the lesson he (nay learn In trying to behave himself In the future nothing will arise to prevent him from entering the ring on July 4 in the best of condition. We don't want to bear ary excuses later. It's interesting to note that the big fight is awakening lots of attention on the other side. In a.

recent letter from an English irportaman I am informed that Lord Rosebery, former premier of England, win bead a party of British noblemen who will come over to see the contest. The party has arranged for a special train from New York to San asranelse. as well as for ringside reservations. wouldn't be surprised to see at least 100 from England at the ringside and possibly an equal number from Prance and other European centers because of the great interest that has been created over there in ring matters.

Usually there is little activity among the owners until late in April. which always has given ample time in which to get the boats fitted out aid tuned up ready to go Into commission Decoration day. This season finds the sailors taking time by the jibboorn. and if the present weather continues it wila not be many days before canvas will be spread for the nrst sail of the year. Owners of the Columbia and Jackson Park Yacht clubs are particularly active in getting the covers oa the 'boats, and ascertaining bow they have wintered.

They have been at it for a couple of weeks now but the climax was reached yesterday when the work of actual2y fitting the yachts out was started on a score or more of them. Down at Kraft'a shipyard. at South Chicago, where most of the boats are laid up. a busy scene is presented. The ring of the caulking iron and the swish of the paint brush is heard throughout the yard.
