CORBETT SIGNS
FIGHT ARTICLES
Proposed Championship Bat
tie Now Up to
Jeffries.

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-James ]. Cor
bett signed articles here today for
twenty-round contest with James j.
Jeffries for the heavyweight cham
pionship of the world, the fight to take
place at Fort Erie, Canada, on June
20. Jeffries was not present, but the
articles will be forwarded to him. The
contest is to be for a purse of $780,
900.
1t is doubtful if Jeffries will accept
even these hattering terms. By flat
tering terms is meant the financial
end Of the deal, for the purse offered is
the second largest ever offered for
similar contest. Bob F'itZsimmonS and

sum of $4,000 for their meeting in

test providing the contestants doubt
his ability to pay off after the contest.
Can Afford to Make Offer.
Since the Canadian authorities are
I agreeable to the battle, there is little
doubt here or in Buffalo that Herman
can well afford to make the offer he
does at this time. Under the boxing
code as 1T exists at Fort Erie the Cor
bett end of the contest would have a
good shade the better of the milling,
judged by the result of the first con-
test between the men. The men there
break not at the call of the referee,
but at the call Of the captain of police,
who sits at the ringside and sees that
all goes as he wishes it. In the first
| meeting of Jeffries and Corbett the
latter had all the better of the argu-
| ment up to the time he got a knock
out punch in the tWenty-third round.
He had Jeffries completely at sea in
the preceding rounds and had he been
| able to hold out at the same gait for
! the remainder Of the twenty-five round
limit there seems to be little doubt
that Corbett would have received the
verdict.
Corbett is in the city and was well
pleased when he heard of the action of
Herman. He said:
"Jeffries cannot avoid meeting me
this time. The offer of the Fort Erie
cup IS TOO big for him to turn down.
He thinks he can lick me, and if he
can he can make a lot of money, for
L won't split the. purse with him like
he has had to do in all of his fights l
VIII sign an agreement for the winner
to take rs per cent of the purse. That
ought to satisfy him. If [ lose I do
not want any of the money The 25
per cent would just about cover my
expenses.
Will Be No Side Bet.
What I want is a chance to fight
him under any old conditions. I have
$4,000 forfeit money up already and I
will make it $4,000 any time he wants
to put up a like amount. His talk
about betting me $4,000 on the side is
nonsense, for he could take that money
and lay it on so to be ahead anyway,
for he will be an odds-On favorite in
the betting should we get together.
Il do not see how he can avoid
meeting me. He must fight someone
and there is no one who has a better
right than I to look for a chance He
has whipped all the other heavy
weights two times each and there is
no one left for him to take on.
Il am going to force him to get into
the ring with me if l can and do not
see why he should turn down this offer
of the International Athletic club. It's
deposit of $4,000 shows that it means
business, and no matter how long he
would hold off no one would offer a
larger sum. Any time will suit me-
I'm ready to go on tomorrow. Jeffries
will either have to fight me or quit
the business"
