BOXERS NEGOTIATING
Ties* Association—'By Telegraph—Copyright. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. NEW YORK, July 8. (Received July 10, at 1 p.m.) Kearns. Cnrley, Oarpentier. Descamps, and. Brady held a ooa-ference with the of arranging a contest between Dempsey and Carpentier. The conference did not result in any decision, and it is virtually certain that no bout can be staged before 1921. The outstanding facts were as follows: Kearns said Dempsey had to fight in no place but the United States. Brady, who represents Cochrane, pointed out that a contract between Cochrane and Oarpentier running ■until the Ist January, 1921, precludes any meeting between Dempsey and Oarpentier until the new year, unless under Cochrane*s promotion. Cochrane desires to stage the. battle in Europe. Descamps said that" Oarpentier would gladly meet Dempsey in Paris or London in November or December. Curley, who arranged the bout between Carpentier and Levmsky for October, 1920, refused to release both men, although Kearns offered a handseome bonus. Kearns said he would therefore await the outcome of the Levinsky battle before arranging a bout between Dempsey and Carpentier.
