JEFFRIEs' FINAL OFFER.
Fitz Must Accept Division on 90 and
40 Per Cent Basis.

Champion Jim Jeffries announced in New
York yesterday his final offer to Bob Fitz-
simmons for fight for the championship
Of the world. The inducement the big
champion makes to Lanky Bob, the only
terms under which he will agree to fight
him, is that the winner OF the battle shall
receive 60 per cent Of the purse and the
loser 40
If Fitzsimmons wants to fight Jeffries he
will have to accept these terms. Jeffries
says he will not under any circumstances
consent to split the money equally.
Before making the above declaration JEFF
fries sought the advice Of his most inti-
| mate friends and also his manager, Billy
Delaney. All told him that his latest offer
to Fitzsmmons Is very generous one.
They told him not to agree to anything
else.
Jeffries has received a letter from De-
! Ianey. The latter told him that his offer
| of 60 per cent to the winner and 40 to the
| loser was too liberal in fact, and unless
Fftzsimmons accepted 1t to declare on all
negotiations. After receiving these instruc-
| tiOns from his manager Jeffries announced
| the above as his ultimatum to Fitz. JET
| fries says he is willing to split the picture
| money with Fitz.
| In speaking Of his latest offer, Jeffries
said:
"All this talk about my going to split the
purse with FitZ Is bosh. I have made my
nnal OHer TO MIN ana Will not cnanSe IL.
My offer is liberal one. and think Fitz-
simmons should grab it. / don't have to
fight Fitzsimmons. for at present I am
making plenty of money. I get guaran-
tee OF $1,000 week for boxing, with the
privilege Of working on q large percent
age. will agree to split the picture money
with Fitz. but the purse must not be d.
vided. I will wait until Saturday night
for Fftzsimmons to accept my offer. and
II he doesn't take 1t by that time [ will
declare the match of for good. !"

DOWN THE ALLEYS.
Saengerbund Captured Two Games
From Carroll Institute.

From Carroll Institute.
The crack Carroll Institute bowling team
struck snag last night when 1t ran against
the Saengerbund five, and only by a small
margin managed to win one game out of
three. Both teams started off well in the
first game, and the bowling was high-class,
but although the CAROLS reached the S22
mark. the Saengers went them few bet
ter with S53. In the second game both sides
fell away In their work. and the scores were
100 to 792 in favor Of the Saengers. In the
third game the excitement was at a high
pitch. Smith of the CAROLS was rolling in
great form. and through a splendid spare
shot really won the game for his side, the
score being $40 to S26
Ray of the Saengers should also be given
credit for winning the second game for his
team, his spare of 6-1-1O being unusually
brilliant.
Smith of the CAROLS. carried off top-score
honors with 213, and also had the best
average.
The disastrous visit of the Excelsiors of
Baltimore to this city last week was very
unsatisfactory to the oyster city bowlers,
and the same team will be back tonight.
The match will come off on the Saenger-
bund's alleys, and against the same picked
five of last week.
Following are the scores of last night 8
games in detail:

citation OF the affair was not marred
BY any lack of enthusiasm on the part
OF those who do remember the good old
days.
The guests were numbereds by hun
dreds and included many people Of all
nationaiities, who looked upon the al
fair as one into which there entered no
sentiment OF home feeling, while TAX
ing part in the jubilation of the Brit
ons II was only after hours spent in
dancing that any of those in attend
ance thought OF retiring. but the young
people kept the ball rolling until the
day had been far past.

staff, in uniform, and the Consuls OF

ent and took part IN the affair.
