TOLEDO'S MAYOR DEFENDS COMING BOUT FOR TITLE Ministerial Association Regis ters Protest to Willard- Dempsey Fight Toledo, Ohio, May 16 Protest against the Jess Willard-Jack Dcmpsey heavyweight championship contest at Bayview Park, a munici pal owned plot of ground here July 4 is expected to he in the hands of Governor Cox, of Ohio, and James F. Mathias, sherllT of hucas county, to day. These officials, together with Mayor Schreiber, of Toledo, were re quested by the Toledo Ministerial Union, an organization of 250 churches, to prohibit the contest. Fours Bad liflfert The protest, mailed to the state of ficials and Mayor Schreiber yester day, characterized the fight as "a gladiator contest worthy of the Ro man arena of infamous memory;" de clared that it would teach youths "to see red," and would result in an invasion of Toledo by gamblers and thieves. Mayor Schreiber answered to-day that the government had made box ing a part of the curriculum in the army and navy, and that the fight would bring thousands of visitors to Toledo who will expend hundreds of thousands of dollars. Will Aid Charity The contest, the mayor's statement added, would stimulate Toledo's bus iness, provide employment to labor, bring Toledo advantages natural'and Industrial, to notice in every sec tion of the country, and result in en riching the city's charity fund by ap proximately $35,000. Seven per cent of the gross receipts of the contest are to be donated by Tex Rickard, the promoter to the fund. "The contest will be an exhibition of clean sportsmanship and free from fraud of any kind," the mayor added. "It will do much to bring home to every one the advantage of athletics and physical exercise." ONLY THE PUGILISTS HAVE FAILED TO STRIKE Iginilon Johannesburg, South Africa, has grown so used to strikes of all kinds that they have ceased to be effectivo there, and yet they continue. The tearoom girls, in particular, are always striking, us ing the hottest afternoons. Sten ographers meet secretly in each other's rooms and plan walkouts. Chauffeurs are in perpetual turmoil. The unrest of the harbers is sharply manifested. The bank clerks, threat ening to close down, have the hearty support of every man with an over draft.. Only the professional pugi lists have failed to strike. The cables are in a decline. Since the "trade union forming fortnight," which the Rand enjoyed a little while ago, there has been no time to do any thing but negotiate.

EMIR'S ASSASSIN STILL AT LARGE; RIVALS FOR TOGA Habibullah Slain During Sleep While on Grouse Hunting Tour London, May 16.—Latest reports received hero regarding the murder of Habibullah, Emir of Afghanistan, on February 20. indicate that the assassin is still .at large. The boify of the emir wus taken to Jellalabad and buried on the royal golf course, but it is assumed that it will be exhumed and reinterred in one of the palaces at Kabul. Kival Claimants to Tlironc Meanwhile there have been rival claimants of the throne. The new emir is Amarullah Khun, third son of Habibullah, the dead monarch. He is 26 years of age and has never been out of the country, but he is described as having "an active brain and a keen intelligence." Details of the assassination of Hab ibullah now in hand confirm cable reports that he was killed in his sleep while on a grouse hunting ex pedition. Eats Engineer's Lunch He had motored from his winter palace at Jellalabad, accompanied by his eldest son and Nazurulla Khan, his brother. According to a Cal cutta newspaper, about two days be fore his death he was seen at Kha lat-ul-Senaja, a palace about 25 miles from Jellalabad, by a Euro pean engineer engaged in work there. His visit was a surprise and no lunch had been prepared. The European engineer saved the situa tion by giving his lunch to Haba bullah, who ate it all and presented the cook with $lO. To the engineer he handed a cigaret. "Good-by," he said as he depart ed. "I shall see you again in three days on my way back." Dead Two Days Later When the motor car returned two days later it contained his dead body. His Majesty had proceeded about 27 miles beyond Khalat-ul-Serja and camped at a little place known as Kollagosh. He slept in a large tent well guarded by soldiers. Four or five page boys also in the tent took turns in watching. About 3 o'clock in the morning a pistol shot was heard, and when the emir's brother and eldest son rushed into the tent they found Hababullah shot through the head.
