Muldoou, who trained Sullivan for his
great fight, sees money in the air. II he
pleases, fortune awaits him as trainer,
as a guide to lead men to health, strength
and sobriety. A New York World CORE

hundreds of letters since the fight from all
sorts of people who long to be physically
strong and athletic. A banker well known
to the public offered to write him out
check for $500 a week fer five weeks If
Muldoon would train him for that period.
Some OF the letters he has received are
very funny. Oae man wrote that
he weighed $50 odd pouEds and
his wife weighed 107. What
could he do to decrease and what could
his wife do to increase? Tall men want
70 be made short, short men want to get
tall. thin men want to grow fat, fat men
want 20 grow thin, and they all write to
Champion. Trainer-Wrestler MuldOon for
sdvice, and they not only promise 10 take
it but TO pay for it. One boy wrote that
he was only Is years old and masured .
feet II inches. lie wanted to know how
to stop his growth and how to make him
self broaden out. Mr. MuldOOn seriously
coBtemplstes turning his homestead into q
professional training resort, where he can
tesch men TO regain health such as their
robuet forefathers possessed"
Peter Jackson made q sorry showing
against Mike Lynch the Buffalo pug.
Tom Lees sat in Lynoh's corner and gave
him tips On JacksOn's weakness. Lynch
was an apt pupil and got Jackson ratified.
Ia the fret round the Buffalo man made
pass 1T JtcksoH's chin and hit him terri
blow in the stomach. Then they exchanged
some savage cuts, Lynch working hard.
Jackson was cautious in the second round,
and Lynch hammered him right and left,
lodging most of JacksOn's blows. The
Buffalo sluRgsr kept it up and was so
rough that Police Captain Kraft stopped
the slugging.
Eastern sporting men who looked for
ward to the six-round glove contest be
tween Jack Ashton and Peter Jackson,
the giant Australian negro, as a good
chance to Judge of the lAtter's capabilities,
will be disappointed, for the match has
been indefinitely postponed. Parson
Dsvies, Jacksou's manager, telegrSphed

over for time. The men will probably
meet in September in a frieEdly set-tO

that Murphy made of his recent nesting
with Cal.
Australians who came to San Francisco
on the last Australian steamer say that
Heavy Weight Slsvin's powers have not
been overestimated. Slavin, they ssy, is
more like Sullivan than any mas Ia the
riug. He is a ferocicua boxer, and # he
meets jackson under Queensberry rules,
he will certainly do him"
The general opinion among sporting men
is that Jack Dempsey will have his hands
full of the Marine when they meet IN San
Francisco. When these men met before
LIE Blanche had never before fought with
skin gloves. His friends say that he will
do much better with the big gloves. -Ne'o
