SHARKEY READY TO FIGHT.
He Is Willing to Meet Jeffries With
in Three Weeks.

Paso Robes. Cal, June n.-Tom
Sharkey is sojourning here, having
come to the springs ten days ago. In
the course of an interview today re-
garding the Jeffries challenge, Sharkey
expressed qualification at the prospect
of an early fight with the champion.
'I will meet him anywhere" said
Sharkey. "Of course, I naturally want
to fight before the club Offering the
largest purse. preferably in San Fran
cisco. l think 1 have as many friends
in California as Jeffries has, and be-
lieve / can get a square deal in San
Francisco. l am ready to post my for

pared to enter the ring within six
weeks.
..Jeffries will not lean all over me-
continued the sailor pugilist, las he
did in his fight with old man Fitzsim-
mons. Jeffries talks slightingly about
Wyatt Earps decision, but he forgets
about the time Alex Greggains put it
all over me in his decision.
Il have one stipulation TO make,
however, and that is regarding the size
of the ring. / will meet Jeffries under
MARQUIS of Queensbury rules, and
those rules call for a twenty -four-foot
ring. l want no eighteen-foot ring in
mine. No championship fight is ever
properly held in an eighteen-foot ring.
"Jeffries now says he wants all the
purse or none. When he talked fight

though the mile handicap was the
hardest race he has had since he ar
rived in Salt Lake City.

gramme there was IL strong, disagree

Seven starters faced the gun in the
half-mile amateur open. which was the
first event on the programme.
John LomaX, a new rider. jumped
into the lead and paced the bunch
around to the beginning of the stretch
on the last lap. Samuelson, the Provo
lad. came up from behind with a rush
with Heagren and Frank Smith tackled
on LomaX got lost behind in the mix
up. but coming around the last turn he
made a splendid ride down the home
stretch. and he made up three lengths
on SamuelsOn, almost nipping him at
the tape. Frank Smith was three
lengths behind.
The one mile handicap professional
was one of the best handicap races
ever run on a Salt Lake track and all
the riders rode from start to finish, as
Lawson's time of PA Is from stratch
indicates. This time is the best un-

ROW AT LAGOON GAME.
Ogden Wins 1t By Score of Four to
Nothing

Baseball at the Lagoon yesterday was
mixed with pugilism. When the game
between Ogden and the LagOons was
practically ended and the latter pretty
surely beaten, there was a mix-up be-
tween Bluth and Bennett that threat
ened to bring the game to premature
end The difficulty was smOOthed over
and the game ended with victory for
Ogden by Il score of to o.
The game was scheduled to commence
at $40 p. m, but it was not until thirty
minutes after that time that the game
was called. The cause of the deiaY
seems to have been a misunderstanding
on the part of the Ogden management
regarding the terms of agreement, par
ticularly as bearing on the price OF
admission. The Lagoon people had
fixed the tax at 10 cents for entry to
the grounds and 10 cents extra for a
seat in the grand-stand. These rates
had been advertised and tickets sold.
The ogden contingent commended that a
fee of % cents for bleachers. with an
additional charge of 10 cents for grand
stand seats, would be about right. They
had never played for less, they said,
and they were not going to. They were
talked to and pleaded with. but in vain
they were obdurate. SO. finally. the
Lagoon boys gave in. But here new
difficulty arose and further delayed the
starting of the game, for the people
who had paid % cents for a grand
stand seat would not be imposed upon
and made to brave the hot sun which
was beating down on the bleachers.
However. giving some of the people ID
cents rebate and not resisting others
of the audience who walked in the
gates, briskly brushing aside the grand
stand ticket choppers. matters finally
adjusted themselves and the game was
called bv Umpire Horn.
Good ball was played from the start.
and interest in the game did not abate
until the eighth inning, when it was
conceded by all that the Lagoon nine
had very slight show to win. Not an
error was made until the first half Of
the sixth inning. when McGregor of the
Ogden nine started the ball rolling by
making a bad muff. After the second
inning. when the bases were all full,
the Salt Lake boys were never in 1t.
Even then they could not score. The
Ogden battery was too much for the

Young Mr.. Waller, who officiates at
second base for the Short Lines, very
nearly caused a small riot during the
progress of the Pocatello-Short Line
game yesterday. 1t was all over Il
shoestring. which came united most OPP
portunely-just when Pitcher Taylor
was about TO Succumb to u very bad
case of rattles, and the obvious pur-
pose OF Walters little by-play was 10
give Taylor chance to get anos her
grip on his shattered nerves. The
same waited while Waller tied his shoe.
The crowd jeered impatientiy, but Wal
Ter continued tying his shoe. Then he
spent some time over the appearance
of the bow which adorned its front.
But Rand of Pocatello, who had been
roosting on third base, had meanwhile
stolen quietly homeward, and was on
the plate before Taylor recovered from
MS trance. The crowd nearly burst a
hole in the blue sky in its delight at
the trick, but Taylor merely made a
magnificent gesture with his dexter
fiipper and Umpire Smith ordered Rand
back. Dwyer, Pocatellos captain, exc
cuted several cancans in his rage, but
Smith was firm and Rand went back.
while the crowd hoOted Taylor and said
impolite things about the umpire
moment later Gebhart cleared the
bases with a pretty tripie. and the
crowd yelled its satisfaction, While
Taylor went into retirement in right
field and Kidder took up the burden
he laid down, striking cut the next
man at bat.
This little incident was about the
only interesting feature in an other
wise dull and sleepy game. The Chort
Lines had little difficulty in winning
out. Gerhart was very easy for them,
and the Pocatello inaeld was not up
to the standard. Doggy" Bowman
distinguished himself by accumulating
nearly all the errors for, the Short
Line. He mishandled almost every
thing he could get at and his throwing \
