THE FIGHTERS SUED.
Jackson and Jeffries Served With Summonses by Deputy
 SheriffS.

The Sheriff's office was out in full force at the fight last evening to serve summonses on both the fighters. One suit was that of Joseph Accicisco, who tried yesterday. through his attorney, Alfred Clarke, tog get an injunction from the Superior Court to prevent the battle taking place.
 Accicisco claims that the contest was in violation of the statutes prohibiting prize-fghting, but failed to find any Superior Judge who would stop the contest. The summonses served by the Deputy Sheriffs require Jackson and Jeffries to appear in the Superior Court within ten days to show cause why they should not be punished for com mitting a felony.
 Two summonses were served by .,the Sheriff's deputies on Jeffries in suits brought in the Justice Court. One was instituted by G. w. McCord, who claims that he nursed Jeffries while the latter was sick with pneumonia several months ago and that he received but $10 out of $100 that was due him. He claims a balance of $90 .

JEFFRIEs A COMING MAN
He Is Now Anxious to Bind a Match With the Hard
 Hittind Marine.

After the bout Jeffries was seen in his dressing room. The only mark on him that would have led anyone to be- lieve he had taken prominent part in a fistic engagement was slight cut over the eye, which he sustained While training and which was reopened in the bout.
 When interviewed after the fight the young giant modestly referred the re- porter to his trainer and manager, Billy Delaney The latter wore a. smile of contentment which broadened into huge grin when he was congratulated on his new champions fine showing.
 ''Jeffries went into the ring weighing PIG pounds" said Delaney, much light CT than he has ever fought before. Despite the many stories Of Jackson's cleverness he was confident he would win.
 'In the first round he spared with his duSky antagonist to get line on him, but when he saw that he was just as clever he determined to make it a short fight.
 At the end of the first round l saw that Jackson could not hurt him, and instructed Jeffries to go at him. Many of Jackson's blows whizzed around Jef- fries head, which showed that he still had hitting power. Although he was

Jeffries landed hard right on Jackson's face and swung his left around Peters neck. Jackson cleverly ducked another left lead for the head: Jeffries missed with his right but landed his left with a heavy swing on Jaeason,s each landing square on the others nose. Jeffries rushed and Peter jumped away. in twice the number of blows, but they did not seem to have much effect on the big Los Angeles lad.

Lucky" Baldwin Is Supposed to Be Recruiting at His Southern

Tn spite of the fact that detectives and parties interested have been searching for missing Irene Lynch TOT several days, the police reported last night that nothing concerning her whereabouts had been discovered
 There was a general belief among race track habitues last night that the o;rl had returned to the city and was in hiding in Stockton street lodging house It was reported that Gus Ros- land a well-knowns pool boy, knew of her whereabouts and had been seen with her.
 Rosland's mother was seen last night and she said her son had come and got his overcoat and stated that he would be gone for a few days. He could not be found thereafter.
 A we'll known race track man said last night: r'I saw letter from Irene Lynch tonight. It was dated yester- day and purported to have been writ ten at Los Angeles, though it was postmarked in this city, In the letter she gave her love blew, the jockey.
 .I saw at once that there was decep- tion about the letter. the postmark be- ing in this city, and I feel sure that the girl is being hidden in this city by per- sons who are interested in keeping her whereabouts a secret. I cannot say who is paying people to hide the girl but I feel sure she is at present being hidden here by persons interested in hiding her from the public.

 This bout only lasted one round, on account of the rank faking of Lewis, who. after receiving a few light taps, went to the floor twice, and was finally counted out. The audience hooted at the exhibition, and particularly the cowardice of Lewis. Parker appeared well trained and boxed in lively fash ion, but he had little chance to show his cleverness.
