TO STOP FOULING.
Oakland Club Will Not Pay the Purse
to Man Who Fouls

San Francisco, Cal. Feb. s.-Billy La
vigne, manager of the Acme Athletic
club of Oakland, has adopted a rule of
boxing which if also adopted by or
ganizations on this side of the bay will
have a strong tendency to stop foul
fighting. It is as follows:
I'm case of either boxer being dis
qualified for intentional foulingg or
breaking of rules he shall forfeit his en-
tire share of purse or receipts"
The Evening Post yesterday says:
Jack Root, accompanied by Lon
Houseman, left this city for Chicago to-
day. Root carries back with him a snug
sum of money which he won here and
Houseman is not going back broke
Houseman, by the way is loud in his
claim that, although he was willing to
match Root with Gardner again, the
latter's manager would not show. If
Houseman says this he states what he
knows to be a deliberate untruth. Last
Saturday night GreggainS sought to
meet Houseman to get a return match
and to put up 50, 500 for the same Greg
gains insisted that $500 cash be put up
that night with any person Houseman
would name, but the latter told Greg
gains to wait until he was telephoned
to in the matter and Greggains is wait
ing yet. Houseman simply squirmed
out of the match and took good care
not to cover the $500 deposit that was
offered repeatedly to him Saturday"
