JEFFRIES

FIGHT
Nav Be Cancelled Because
Money Is Too Tight

San Francisco, June 16.--The News
says today there is a strong prooa'
bility that the fight between Jeffries
and Munroe may never take place.
The match no doubt will be cancelled
for the time being, and wise ones are
clinging to the belief that it is a
financial matter and not Jeffries' knee
that will cause an indefinite postpone
ment. It is conceded the advance sale
of seats is so slow as to make it i'm
possible for the club to proceed with
out incurring a great loss. 1t is point
ed out that a great many who would
otherwise attend the fight have gone
