New York, Nov. 25.-Jim Corbett was
about town today, explaining how he
came close to lose his fight with Sharkey
on foul. The former champion Is trying
to convince the sports that their opinion
of him is all wrong and unjust.
Since Tuesday night" said Corbett to-
day, II have been the recipient of lot
of abuse and unfair criticism. j have
been charged with misleading my friends,
throwing down the public and doing every
thing that is low and contemplate. VIII
this talk never cease? Must this cal
umny and gossip continue? Those who
know me best know that ! was never
mixed up in shady affair or transaction
of any kind. and / defy any man to show
that / was. l was innocent of any wrong
doing on last Tuesday night. and / will
give slo00 to any man who can prove that
/ even had a motive for doing.
In regard 10 the statement of referee
John Kelly that neither myself nor my
manager requested him to call all bets
off, / will wager Mr. Kelly 81, COO that John
Considine, my timekeeper, was the first
man to suggest that matter 10 him. Ny
manager, George Considine, also request
ed him to do this, as will be seen by the
interview which appeared in print after
the battle. If l was a party to a fake i
know what to expect. Like murder, this
fight will out some day. and l will have
to take my share of the thing If l have
done anything wrong.
Corbett also made statement, dwell
ing on the facts quoted above and went
before a notary public and swore to the
truth of what he said.
IL was learned on good authority to-
day that the articles of agreement signed
by both boxers at the time the match
was made, and which stipulated that the
boxers were to meet for purse OF 500
We're merely blind. The facts are that
the battle was for percentage of he
gate receipts, and each boxer received 30
per cent
II is probable that in the near future
the officials of the Lenox Athletic Club
will revise the Marquis of Queensbery
rules in such way that all knotty ques-
tions can be covered, That the code is
incomplete is the consensus of opinion
among many sporting men. Many clauses
are indefinite and OF obscure meaning
The powers of the referee are not clearly
stated and other; rules appear to need
amendments
1t is probable that 7trwo changes TO he
made by the LenoX Athletic Club will
cover the referees authority to rule on
bets and also the action of seconds in
jumping into the ring. The officials be-
lieve that referee should have power to
declare OF bets If. in his judgment,
fighter is implicated in a job.
AS evidence that the result of the big
fight has not exactty killed the game.
the Lenox Club managers said today that
it has already sold 5000 worth of tickets
for the DiXon-Gardiner contest TO be de-
cided next Tuesday.
