KILRAINsULLIyAN.
Jake's Backer Puts Up $4,000 as an Earnest
that They Mean BGsiness-Details
of the Transaction.

NEW YORK, Dec. %. A letter from
Jake, Kilrain was received at the Clipper
Office shortly after II o clock this morn
ing. 1t read as follows:
Editor Clipper.
DEAR SIR-Tn reply to John L. Sulli-
van S challenge to meet me in the arena
for $40 200 side and the championship
of the world, please state that am ready
to meet Mr.. Sullivan to battle for
$40 200 a side and the diamond belt
which represents the championship of the
world. To prove that am in earnest
and mean business my friend and hackers
has deposited $4,000 to-day with the pro-
prietOr of the Clipper, who L am willing,
shall be final stake holder. Myself or
representatives will be ready to meet Mr..
Sullivan or his representatives any day
they name, giving me due notice outside
the jurisdiction of the United States to
arrange a match. Yours,
JAKE KILRAIN,
Champion of the World.
December %, 1888.
About the time of the arrival of Kill
rain IS acceptance of Sullivan s challenge
two gentlemen entered the editorial
rooms of the Clipper. Their cards read,
Lewis B Allen and William E. Harding.
Mr.. Allen, who was the spokesman, was
a stranger to the gentlemen of the Clip
per. Mr.. Harding was not. Allen pro-
duced a piece of paper which proved to
be a certified check for $1,000, drawn on
the Chatham National Bank to the order
of Lewis B. Allen. Mr.. Allen
indorsed the check, making it
payable to the order of
the Clipper, for the signature was il
legible, but as it was certified it was con-
sidered as good as gold and accepted.
Mr.. Allen said that he had been requested
by Kilrain to say that they would require
at least forty-eight hours notice before
meeting to sign the articles of agreement.
Mr.. Allen neglected to request Il receipt
for his certified check. The Clipper will
not be final stakeholder, as suggested by
Kilrain in his letter of acceptance. AS
soon as the final stakeholder has been
agreed on, the $4,000 put up by Sulli-
vans hacker, together with the check
received this morning, will be turned
over to him. a sporting man was asked
this noon where the representatives of
the sluggers were likely to meet. He re-
piled: ''They may go to Canada, but it
is not necessary. l think it more likely
that they will meet at Taylorsport or
Jersey City
