TYPEWRITER FOR JAPANESE.
Girl Said to Have Solved the Problem
 Of CoMtDining Their Characters.

| Stamford. Conn, June 9.-One result of the recent visit tc this country of a party of men connected with the Jap
 anese government on a tour of ip- spection Of American machinery, with a view to it's introduction into their
 own country, will be to give the Jap
 anese a typewriter. It has been
 thought generally that the Chinese
 and Japanese would be compelled to adopt some different form of written language from that in use by the pe0- pie of those countries before the labor saving American typewriting machines
 could be made of practical use to them. There are about 5000 charac-
 ters used by the Chinese in writing. and the Japanese written signs are
 similar to those of China. The multi plicity of characters seemed to render
 impossible any attempt to manufac-
 ture a satisfactory writing machine for the use of the inhabitants of those demonstrated that the difficulties can be overcome, and before many months the Japanese will have their own writ ten language produced by American made typewri ters. One of the Japa- nese party became intensely interested in these machines, and he first sug- gested the idea of having machines made with JaEanese characters. Some to whom he spoke about the matter ridiculed his ileas and nearly all dis outraged him. He was persistent, however, and he has received assur- ances that the work can be done.
 The man from Japan started for his home today, and upon his arrival in Japan he will employ expert engravers at work upon characters from which the letters for the new typewriter will be modelled. Tho engraving could be done in this country, but, as American engravers are not familiar with the Japanese language, and as it is de- sired that each character shall be formed perfectly, it was thought best to have the first work done in Japan. Just as soon as the engraved signs are received here the type wheels will be made in this city. The government of Japan will be the first to avail it. self of these machines.

New York, June 9.-James J. Jef- fries, another sturdy young giant, has come cut of the west to whip the champion pugilist. At the arena of the Coney Island Athletic club tonight he defeated Robert Fitzsimmons, the worlds champion in two dasses- middleweight and heavyweighI-in eleven rounds of whirlwind fighting He came to the ring a rank outsider and left it the acknowledged master of the man he defeated
 He was never at any time in serious danger, and after the size-up in the early rounds of the contest he took the lead. He had the Australian whipped from the ninth round. It was acknowledged that Jeffries would have an immense advantage in weight, height and age, but thousands who tipped and backed his opponent to win were sure that he was slow and that he would in that respect be at the mercy of past master at the science of fighting that he was to meet.
 He proved, on the contrary, that he was just as fast as the man he met. and beat him down to unconscious de- feat in a fair fight He is a veritabIe giant in stature and marvelous.y speedy for his immense size. Less than a year ago he appeared in New York great awkward, ungainIy bcy. Today he is q 1.-the, active, alert and trained athlete. He defeated Robert Fitzsimmons, Tom Sharkey and Peter Jackson, and if he cares for himself he will probably be able to success fully defend the title for many years.
 The defeated Dugi.ist was as good as the crispy morning when he lowered the colors of the then peerless Corbett. He was just as active, just as clever, just as tricky anG just as fearless of punishment. He went unfalteringly to his defeat. He was the aggressor even at the moment when he was bleeding and unsteady, and when stunned by the blows he received he reeIed in st1nctively toward his opponent. He was fighting all the time and punished bis opponent, but found him more difficult opponent than any he had met and In more difficult attitude to fight.
 Je1fries fought from a crouching at tltude that was hard to get at. He held ms head lew, his back was bent down and his left arm was extended. He kent Jabbing away with his left and found no trouble in landing it. It was there that his superior reach told. He is game, too, for he never shrank from ms punishment It was a great fight to watch and commenced and ended amid scenes of intense excitement. It was all very dramatic.

AS IT SEEMED BY DAY.

New York, June 9-The confidence of the sporting element which had i been shaken by the threat of Chief or Pohce Devery to interfere and stop the Fitzsimmons-Jeffrie fight in case hard blows were given, was fully re- stored, before midday. Disturbing rumors of police interference and political wire pulling, to use the sporting phrase, did not cut as, much ice" as they did two days ago. It was stated that Brooklyn politicians had brought in fiuence to bear upon the authorities and induced the latter to prevent any interference with the contest Hun dreds of sporting men from all parts of the country were on hand to wit ness the battle and they felt sure the bout would be positively allowed to go on to a decision. Betting had even taken lively turn.
 Fitzsimmons had the call in betting, but judging from the manner in which Jeffries money was being flashed the odds of 2 to 1 on FItzsimmons would be reduced to 100 to 70, or probably 100 to 80 before night. Each man had large following and both seemed confident Fitzsimmons' followers de- clared that their man could give away fifty pounds and offset it by qufckness and cl6verness, backed by years of eX- perience. On the other hand, the Jef- fries people asserted that the California boiler maker had improved wonderfully and had learned so much since he was seen here last year that he was bound to wallop the champion. Jeffries never before was trained to perfection, they claimed. Before Jeffries left his training quarters near Ashbury Park today he weighed POS pounds. He had a good nights rest and szid he never felt better n his life.
 Fitzsimmons was very confident and said that those who thought he hal gone back or had become has been,'' would be surprised When the con test was decided. The men had been notified to be at the club house at 9 o'clock and that the bout would begin at 9:3O

 ter of the round.
 Round 10-Jeffries came up looking
 confident and Fitzsimmons wore an
 earnest look on his face. The Cali | forrian was the first to land with a straight left on the body bringing it
 up to the head. Fitzsimmons clinched. 1 Going into the clnch Fftzsimmons
 drove his left hard to the wind They did a lot of fiddling. Fitzsimmons tried a left swing, but went wide and
 then caught the Californian a second later with a left swing on the nose.
 Jeffries made left swing for Fitz- simmons head, but was blocked. and
 then with a left swing on the jaw, put
 Fitzsimmons on his back. Fitzsim- simmons was very groggy when he got up in seven seconds and was knocked down again with a left and right on the jaw. He came up again in five seconds and Jeffries rushed him into the corner, trying very hard to finish the champion, who was very groggy. Jeffries was too anxious and failed to finish h:s man.
 Round 11-Fitzsimmons came up slowly but assumed tho aggressive, Jeffries standing off evidently waiting for knockout. They clinched three times coming to close quarters Jef- fries put two hard rights over Fitz- simmons heart, sending him back and then a straight left to the neck, fol- lowing with left on the chest. Fitz- simmons crowded in, trying his right for the jaw, but fell short, but sue ceeded i1 blocking the Californian's right return. Jeffries then assumed the aggressive, and jabbed his left t3 the head. Jefries then jabbed his left to the head and left i2 the jaw which dazed Fitzsimmons, who stood in the middle of the ring. Jeffries looked at him for a second and then he had him at his mercy, and swung his right and left to the jaw and Fitz- simmons went down and out. re- linqu;shing the championship to the Californian. Time of the eleventh round was one minute, rnirty-two and two-fifth seconds.
 As soon as Fftzsi1nmons was carried to Eis corner the spectators crowded over the benches and through the ropes and the police had great diff1- culty in keeping the ring clear Par tisans of the Californian almost went crazy and excitement and pandemon- ium reigned for several seconds. Fitz- came to very quickly and Jeffries walked across to the defeated champions corner and both shook hands warmly Judging from the ex- preston on Fitzsimmons' face he did not feel much disgruntled at h;s defeat

 Round 2-Fitz is in the middle Of the ring. He made Jeff break ground. Fitz sent his left to the body. Jef countered with a stiff left on the face. Jeff tried a left for the body but was neatly blocked. Jeff assumed a crouching attitude, boring in with his left on the body but was again blocked and came to a cIinch. Jeff landed two lefts on the body and shot his left three times to Fltz's face without return. Fitz tried for right for the head but it was short and he clinched. Jeff tried a left chop for the head.
