BETTING is. LIGHT
Among the Local Sports on
Tonight's Fight Between
Sharkey and Jefries
JEFFRlES THE FAVORITE
Although Sharkey Has Some Admir-
ers Who Look for the Sailor to
put the Boiler Maker Out.

| There il little betting going OF
among the local sports on tonlght't
battle between Jeffries and Sharkey
aud so far as can be ascertained, the
odds are about 3 to and to with
Jeffries the favorite. There Is not
much chance for better than this.
Very little enthusiasm is being mani
tested and the local betting is light.
Jeffries appears to be the favorite in
the betting, but Sharkey has quite
following, although no large bets have
been recorded on the contest. This
has been due to a feeling of apprehen-
sion owing to Jeffries' mishaps.
In the contest withs the sailor to-
night, Jeffries will occupy the north
east corner, the same he occupied
when he defeated Fitzsim mons for the
ch lam pionship of the world. He will
be seconded by Will Delaney, Tommy
Ryan, Dick Dolan, Jack Jeffries and
w. A. Brady. Sharkey's advisers will
be Tom O'Rourke, George Dixon, Bob
Arm strong and Tim McGratb.
Both Sharkey and Jeffries have
begins, SO as to let the public know ex-
actly what each man weighs. Jeffries
will probably fight at PIP pounds, while
Sharkey will probably weigh ten
pounds less.
The big fight will be preceded by
tep round bout between Kid Goulette
of Rochester, and Tommy Moran OF
Brooklyn. They will fight at 1913
pounds. Time will be called at S:15
o'clock Jeffries and Sharkey have
agreed to be in the club house at 7:15,
and to enter the ring at 8:45.
Following are some opinions on to-
nights battle between the heavy
weights.
Harry Chairman: "As far as 1 know
very few bets have been made on the
fight. If the fight is judged strictly on
it's merits 1 pick Sharkey to win"
Phil Smith: "Sharkey can stand lots
of punishment and his hitting abilities
ought to land him the fight"
Phil Young: "The fight is not

W. n. Fox: 81 don't believe the
