to wrestling men to attend a meeting
in this city in two weeks. at which
ofllcers will be elected, rules adopted
and the sport placed under control
the same as boxing.
The International Sporting Club is
taking a straw vote of its members as
the advisability of including wres-

entertainments and judging from the
tenor of replies thewolub officials will
stage some wrestling contests at the
next entertainment in the Hotel Com-

Vincw YORK. March 14,—The refu—
sal of Carpentier to announce his in-
tention definitely regarding his match
with Dempsey and his delay in send-
ing his, forfeit. money to this city. have
raised‘ doubts as to the Frenchman
keeping the engagement. A compa-

has been in communication with Car-

Georges realized that Dempsey was a
dangerous fighter, but with so much
at stake he was willing to take the
chance. But if the purse is to be re-
vvili not come to America. He would
prefer under such conditions to have
the match take place in London or
Paris.
"Another factor in the case is the
attitude of Mme. Carpentier. She is
strongly opposed to her husband fight-
ing again. and has urged him to re-
tire permanently from the ring.
".Again Carpentier owing to his
in liné for political preferment and is
in a position where he may have to
to pugilism or enter politics. ”
In this contingency Rickard has de~
cided to go over to Paris and have a
heart to heart talk with the French-
man. If anybody can induce Cameo-l

with pempsey Rickard is the man.
The promoter will sail in a few days
