SraIiy s1ti he would do so ii It was

No Fight on Monday.
"Maher simply cannot fight Monday"
said Connolly. His eyes are better,

tHii Julian IT would be OF no use for
rim to claim q forfeit for II he attempt-
SJ IL, | would have Peter Wt the ring
sIle and prevent him from getttnS
tb. money. He cannot get any forfeit
q Naher appears at the rlngside. The
artcles say the forfeit can only be
claimed X one OF the men fails to APP
prar. They do not say that a man mus;
feiit In order to prevent the payment OF
the forfeit. II have my man az the
rigrs!de there Is no show for Julian 70

OOO'' he said. HE has no eIrsAIy
show 10 WIN as things are now ana all
the men all over the country who have
he. money on Na9ler would lose II.
They would blame me and justly 50
for the loss OF their money. Maher

win. no matter what tt costs me per-
sonalIy. am sure he will be able 70
win by Friday. and ! want to was until
that time. What Julian and tltZsIm-
mons will do, l canno; tell.
stuart Is Prepared.
Julian and Tltzsimmons are much
6,sgusted over the outlook and have
no hesItancy in expressing thesr op!n-
