TRAINING FOR THE ENG FIGHT.

SECRECY FOR CARPENTIER PUBLICITY FOR DEMPSEY.

YOTH BOXERS FREDAT SHORT CONTEST,

1.

NEW YORK, June 7.

An army of international journalists has assembled to report the rain- ing of Dempity and Carpentier. The latter is hedged in portentous secrets: in a sylvan retreat in Manhasse: surrounded by high walls. He relaxes restrictions three times a week when a group of favoured fournalists are ad- mitted for a short talk. Dempsey is training in the utmost publicity in a gumhastum in Atlantic Cay designed as an open air theatre which is daily crowded. Fifty per cent of those present are women with whom the champion is enormously popular. He spars with pneumatic gloves, his partners pearing alumínium headguards for protection against the much- advertised terrible punch. Dempsey states that it his intention to adopt tactics like in the Willard fight and go after Carpentier from the start. Car- pentier is confident of knocking out Dempsey in the fourth round. Both agree that the fight is not likely to list longer. Dempsev reopened an old cut over the eye sparring and was compelled to cease practice for some days.

LONDON, June 7. The Tasmanian Agent-General has submitted for discussion by the Imperial Cabinet a croposal that an imperial air company be formed with a capital of £1,500,000 to take over the airships, material, and plant which the British Government is willing to hand over. He suggests that the com pany immediately issue £750,000, Intia, Australia; and South Africa each «'taking up a £100,000, New Zealand £55,000, the Malay States £20,000, and the general public £375.000. He calculates the value of Britain's con- tributon of airships at £375,000. Il Egypt desires to join the amounts can be adjusted to provide for her inclusion.
