He Will Be on Hand 10 See Thai It Is SparrIng Contest and Moi a S!ugglng rtaiCh and He Thinks He Knows inc Difference.

New York, June 66.-Chief of Police Devery tonight gave out the following statement relative to the action he will take in case the Fitzsimmons~ JeffTies fight resolves itself into a brutal slugging match: From cer- tain published statements of experts on prize ring and boxing matters, and from various sources, it would appear that the two wou,d-be pugilistic champions who are down for a spar ring contest at the Coney Island Ath- letic club on Friday night next, or their packers or managers intend to have, under the gIIise of the Horton law permitting sparring contests, q genuine old-time sIugging match CT prize fight. If no such slugging match is intended, then the inference is that these statements and impressions are spread for the sole purpose of gulling and imposing on the public.
 Considering the parties to the contract, their respective weights, 210 and 156 pounds, and other attending circumstances and conditions, it is al most physical fmpossibi.ity fer the two individuals referred to to carry on a lawful contest for points on the coming occasion. The very nature Of things tends to an cut and out prize fight.
 ''I shall be present at the contest and personally sec to it, that the letter and spirit of the law are obeyed, and there will be no slugging nor heavy hitting; nothing but a c.ean-cut, law full sparring exhibition for points"
