in some baseball deal, but they got on to
his curves.
Danny Needham figured in fight here
two years ago and was knocked out by
Boston Smith. When Danny. went the
next day to the bank to collect $4,000
check payment was withheld. He had
got the double cross.
Long Green Lawrence, Gunfighter carp,
Arizona Stable Lynch and Danny Need
ham are birds of similar feather 1t is
expected that they will fly together in the
spring to more congenial climes.
In their statement, by typewriter in the
Examiner editorial-roons, and presented
for publication to THE CALL, according to
orders received from Lawrence, ]. J.
Groom and J. D. Gibbs, mentioned that
City Editor Sim pson of the Chronicle had
recommended the selection OF Wyatt carp
as referee for the Sharkey-F itzsimmons
fight.
Last evening Mr.. Simpson, who had re-
turned from the country, reiterated the
statement made by his representative,
Fred Stowell. the night before. to the effect
that both Gibbs and Groom were consum-
mate liars.
II never interceded in behalf Of Wyatt
carp as referee or took part in any other
way. The fellow is almost an unknown to
me, excepting that | have read of him in
the papers. | once met him, when we were
introduced by Lieutenant Esola. That
was simply passing affair, which never
would have lasted in my mind but for this
false statement made by Gibbs and Groom.
Whether Mr.. Bunker of the Report had
anything to do with selecting Wyatt carp
as referee L DO not know, nor do | know
whether Mr.. Lawrence of the Examiner
had anything to DO with it. But what ]
do know Is that the use of my name or
that of the Chronicle by Gibbs and Groom
Ill this affair was unwarranted misleading
and positively false"
This prop falling from under the pretty
story concocted by Long Green' Law
renee, j. d. Gibbs and ]. j. Groom left
Mr.. Bunker OF the Report to bear The
brunt of public indignation against the
people who had anything to do with the
naming of Wyatt carp as referee of the
fight
Mr. Bunker met with a slight accident
few days ago and has been in seclusion at
his home in the Bella Vista Hotel. He
could not be seen yesterday, but his sem
tlments were voiced at his newspaper of
flee by his city editor, Sutherland.
They were not ready to speak for Mr.
Bunker but they told their impression of
what had occurred.
Some time before the fight Gibbs in
formed Mr.. Bunker that Wyatt carp
would be selected referee.
This information was given prior to the
time that the two principals had endeav-
ored to come to an understanding. Mr..
Bunker, with journalistic idea OF being
first in publishing the news and all that
goes with it, Immediately sent out to

EXAMINER BULLDOZING.
What Is Thought of the Monarch In
Los Angetes Baseball Circles.

What Is Thought of the Monarch in
Los Angeles Baseball Circles.
LOS ANGELES, CAL, Dec. THE part
taken by persons prominent in the con-
duct of the San Francisco Examiner in
the disgraceful affair connected with the
Fitzsim mons Sharkey mill accentuates its
tactics in its late prize amateur baseball
contests, which finally resulted favorably
for the Tufts-Iyons team here and brought
the trophy and pennant to this city.
The determination of the Monarch" to
prevent winning by the Tufts Lyons
over the Alerts of Alameda and later the
Monarchs of Nevada was so notorious and
was pressed upon the local team IN a man
ner so unfair and unjust as to call down
upon its head the mprecation of every
member of the team and TIER many
friends south of Tehachapi
The bulldozlng methods OF the Exami-
n er in arbitrarily ruling out the pitcher of
the Los Angeles team after it had COM
piled with the terms expressly stipulated
nature of the last straw. The Monarch
of the Takers" did not stop there, but
went out of Its way to yillify those friends
OF the Tufts Lyons team who went 10 San
francisco to witness the last two contests.
Opprobrious epithets were applied to them
without the shadow of excuse, and when
some of them applied to the city editor
and asked for fair play they were an
swered next day with additional insults.
These things were related al banquet
given in honor of the winning team at the
Saddle-Rock restaurant, conducted by
John Brink on Spring street in this city,
soon after the return of the victorious
amateurs. Mr.. Brink himself came in for
share of the Examiners shameful ami
madversions. At ieast half dozen ofthose
who spoke roasted" the Monarch" in
unsparing terms for its smallness and
meanness in this affair. 1t is perfectly
safe to predict that any person who heard
the remarks of the speakers on the occa-
sion referred to will never touch any
event RIM by the San Francisco Examiner.

secure photograph of carp for reproduc-
ton in his paper.
Further than this Mr.. Bunker had moth
ing to do with the selecting or imposing
oil Wyatt carp on the fighters, the club or
the public as a referee.
Bat, this VERY point, coming out OF the
Reports end OF this business, is probably
one of the strongest that can be brought
to prove collision, fraud and the etceteras
that go to make up the unhappy mixture.
Gibbs was supposed to not decide upon
any referee until Julian and Lynch re-
tired from the field at noon on Wednes-
day. Still, Gibbs was sure enough of his
ground to name the man TO the Report
day or more in advance.
AS neither City Editor Simpson of the
Chronicle nor Editor Bunker OF the Re-
port have had anything to do with the
naming of the referee, then but Long
Green Lawrence remains.
Strengthening his position in this
matter, the manager of the Examiner has
held Gibbs and Groom up and forced them
INTO formulating statement for publica-
ton in The CALL exculpating him from
blame. That statement has been shown
as lie from start to finish.
The two gentlemen, Mr.. Simpson and
Mr.. Bunker, who are mentioned in the
document, have had no need to send
emissaries around to show their position
and honesty.
1t has been reported that Hearst has
heard good deal about the connection of
his hirelings with the Fitzsimmons-
Sharkey tiasco, and that he has sent word
to have the whole disgraceful affair thor
Dug hly investigated.

Wyatt carp, who gave the decision that

attached yesterday, Sheriff's deputy
taking possession of couple OF race

The claim is for $170 As and is that of ].
G. Swinnerton of Stockton, one of the

a year ago three notorious confidence
men-"Crooked Mouth Green. Smith

scheme
While they were in Jail at Stockton,
after being held in $4,000 bonds, Wyatt

peared on the scene and showed his
friendship for the men by making efforts
to get them released. He engaged Judge
Swinnerton to defend the bunko-steerers,
guaranteeing the attorneys fee. When
the men had been let off with exceedingly
light sentences, considering the gravity of
THU crime, carp disappeared and Judge
Swinnerton never saw his money.
He has long waited for a chance to tie
carp up, and the opportunity is now

vacancy caused by the emigration of Mr..
Hawley, that of publisher" 1t would
be as forcible a way of telling the public
that Lawrence was authorized to collect
cash in advance for the Endorsement or
the silence of the Monarch of the FaKers
as was his promotion from the ranks of
the reporters to the chair of the managing
editor.
1t was learned last night that the hand
full of conspirators who arranged the plot
whereby the betting public were swindled,
had announced to their friends several
days before the fight that Wyatt carp
would be the referee. 1t is also believed
that Lynch, the managing editor for Mr..
Sharkey, had some kind of an interest in
the National Club on the night of the
fight, for he stood at the door and kept
watchful eye on the tickets. On one
occasion Mr.. Gibbs, one Of the half dozen
mem bers of the club, desiring to pass in
friend, took the friend to Lynch and ex-
planned that he was zone of the boys and
all right and Lynch gave him permits
sion to enter without a ticket.
Lynch's reputation is very shady. He
came here with a lot of racehorses and
