~ Carpentier a Great Disappoint- ment Because He Couldn't Knook Out Lewis in Twenty Rounds. Copyright, 1912, by The Prem Pubtishis {the New Yow, Word). ne O% ARPENTIER, the famous Carpea- C tier, middleweight champion of Europe by virtue of victories over the best England could send against him, whipped Willie Lewis in Paris last night. Yet Carpentier is a great disappo! meat. He Gidn't knock Lewis out. The fight ‘went twenty rounds, and up to the thirteenth Lewis held his own, There wasn't even & knockdown in the twenty rounds, ‘That's why Carpentier is @ disap. weight who couldn't knock je Lewis out in twenty rounds will make much of a etir among the Amer- fean claimants of the world's, middie- welght title. a There are & dozen middieweights in this country who could have turned the trick, Mike Gibbons knocked Lewis out with ease in a couple of round: Perhaps Lewis was in better shape in Brance. In fact, there's little doubt of that. He won a lot of fights there on former trips, and he has a world of confidence when fighting Frenchmen or Engllehmen. With Gibbons it was dif- ferent. Still, Carpentier should have knocked Lewis out, if is the great champion that both French and Eng- Neh critios seem to think him. Think of it! They were talking of matching Carpentier against Bombardier Wells! ond Lewis stayed twenty rounds with Carpentier’s reputation was so for- midable that middleweight would-be champions all over the world were wait- 10 eee what some other middlweight would do with him before ac- the many French offers a8 FF : i F France now.

Saye G. Dear Sir: I wish to ask you the favor of a few lines in your paper re Sid Burni the welterweight champion of Eng- land, I know two or three people Rave been busy trying to do Sd Burns harm since his arrival in this country by saying he was a dub. Unfortunately Burns was taken sick @m Monday. 1 am pleased to say Dr, ‘Creamer, the Madison Square Garden Athletic Club’s physician, was per- fectly satisfied when he examined Burne that he was a sick man, Now, I shall only be too pleased for any sporting representative of any of the York papers, whom I know to be Judges of a boxer, to run out to fe Beach Burns himself again and bring the best and cleverest man they can find to work out with Aid Burns; I bar nobody, only toe, must not weigh over 146 Lage hey must box with two or ur ounce gloves, They are welcome to bring thelr own, although we ar ell fixed with al! weights of glove: Shauld any of these knocking parties think they can produce a man from and, Ireland or France to beat Bid Burns at 1% pounds, weigh & o'clock, it would pay them to post 4 deposit for $2,000 with any good New York sportsman and send for their man. I will see to the covering of the money at once. Money spoaks all Janguages.
