ton to introduce bills. as he said it was
a waste of time, and asked that there be
a translation only when the bill was
read. He said that only one senator
could not understand English, and that
if he wished the notices translated, the
Interpreter would do it for him.

ernor in his message had asked the leg
islature to appoint commission to find
out what ought to be paid as a result OF
these claims, and he said the legisla-
ture was entitled to the information
II it was million dollar claim he could
not vote for it, but If it was only about
SO 900 he might see his way clear TO
make law approving the Governors
recommendation. If however 1t was

GORBETT HAS GREAT

in Danger.

SAN Francisco. Cal. July 2S.-To1nmy
RYAN, the middleweight champion and
acknowledged to be one Of the greatest
fighters in the world. has looked over
Jim Corbett and boxed with him and
makes bold to say that the ex-champion
has royal chance to whip Jim Jeffries
and regain the championship. Ryan
trained and coached Jenries in his FIRST
fight with Fitzsimmons. but afterward
split with Jeffries and they are enemies.
1t is conceded he taught Jeffries nearly
all he knows OF boxing.
This is the way Ryan sizes up the com
inc battle: when I came here for my
health. and also 90 see the fight, ] had
an idea Jeffries would win. Il seemed
reasonable TO me. The last time 1 saw
Corbett was when Jeffries knocked him

and reminded me Of a brokendown race

all about his fight with Corbett. I was
in Jeffries' corner. but Billy Brady ran
things and coached Jeffries TO go at him
ana knock his head on. You know Jeff
made a failure at that Corbett hurt
the big fellow that night. and now that
he can lift harder he Is bound to hurt
him more. One time in that fight Cor
bett caught Jeffries on the chin and made
his big form shake like leaf.

diction: I think Corbett has a grand
