TWO ROUNDS In BATTLE AT

Showing of "Butte Miner a
Observation-Disclosures Protests
Against Decision-Big Crowd Wit
nesses the Contest

San Francisco, Aug. 27.-Lfke the
veriest amateur in the prize ring, Jack
Munroe, of Butte, Mont, went down
and out before Champion James ]. JEFF
fries Friday night in the second round.
The man from the mining district made
such an extremely sorry showing that
the great throng in Mechanics pavil-
ion roundly hooted him as he protested
to Referee Graney against the decision
that had been given in favor Of JEFF
fries.
The two giants had not been in the
ring two minutes when it was foreseen
that the aspirations of Munroe would
be quickly disposed of. The miner was
scared and awkward and Jeffries in the
first round had him twice on the can
vas taking the count.
Jeffries directed his bombardment
against the stomach of his opponent,
and each shot was followed by blow
on the jaw that sent Munroe to his
knees. Jeffries went back to his cor
ner after the opening round with a
sheer and a laugh on his swarthy face,
while Munroe's seconds busted them
selves with smelling salts and restora-
tives. When the two came together for
the second round the laugh on the
champions visage changed to a look of
determination that BODIED i'll to the
miner
FOrty-fve seconds after the gong
sounded Munroe was lying on the
floor, bloody, bruised mass of human
ity, with Jeffries standing over him,
ready, if necessary, to put the quietus
on the championship ambitions of his
adversary. The miner was too dazed
to rise to his feet and the timekeepers
counted him out.
A great throng witnessed the con.
test. Estimates of the number in at,
tendance range from 1000 to 5000, and
it is believed that the gate receipts will
approximate $4,000.

JAPS THREATEN
DRASTIC measures
NOTIFY POWERS THAT THEY
WILL SEIZE RUSSIAN SHIPS
UNLESS DIsARMED.
STRICT NEUTRALITY MUST
BE OBSERVED AT SHAN GHAI
Delay in Disarmament Of the Russian
Warships Askold and Grozovoi Is
Proving disappearing to Japanese
Will Not Wait Much Longer.

Washington, Aug. 30.-Japan has ad-
dressed note to the powers informing
them that unless Russia forthwith dis
arms her Warships in Shanghai Japan
will be forced to take whatever steps
she deems necessary to protect her IN
terests," which declaration is accepted
to mean that a Japanese fleet will sail
up the river from Woosung and take
possession Of the Askold and Grozovoi
regardless of the American and British
interests which may have buildings in
range of the Japanese shells.
Mr.. Takahira, the Japanese minister,
called at the state department Satur-
day and left with Mr.. Adee, acting Sec
rotary of state, the communication Of
the Toxic government
Simply Giving Fair Warning.
while Japan hopes said Mr.. Taxa
hira, .'that the reported intention of
Russia to disarm the Askold and Gro
zovoi at Shanghai will be executed
promptly, my government has felt that
it was advisable to inform the powers
what must necessarily be it's attitude
in the event that the disarmament of
the Russian ships is delayed. The
conditions at Shanghai are peculiar
because of the international interests
there, and my government is DESTROYS
of giving these interests every consid-
Grafton"
will it be necessary to send Jap
anese squadron into Shanghai and take
away the Russian ships as was done
with the Ryeshitelni at Chefoo?" the
minister was asked.
'My government has not indicated
in its note to the powers" the minister
replied, Gust what steps will be neces-
sary il the Russian ships are not i'm
mediately disarmed. But it should be
remembered that the Ryeshitelni was
not completely disarmed when seized
by the Japanese, and, under the cir
cumstances, her presence in Chefoo
was exceedingly Instantaneous to
japan for military reasons"
Still Hopes for Neutrality.
When the Japanese minister called
at the state department Saturday he
spent some time in conference with
Acting Secretary Adee, but, further
than to receive the communication, Mr..
Adee was careful not to disclose the
attitude OF this government, although
the Japanese minister was assured that
the continuation of Chinese neutrality
was earnestly hoped for by the United
States. The minister told Mr.. Adee
that Japan had been Informed by
China that the Russian ships would be
disarmed, but, as far as the legation
here knew, no official date for this ac-
ton had been named.
1t is understood that a similar note
to that presented by Mr.. Takahira was
also delivered at the various foreign
offices by Japan's diplomatic represen-
tatives.
The statement is definitely made
here that japan is sincerely DESTROYS
that Chma's neutrality shall be main
tanned.

Will End Ships Activity.

The Japanese government, however
feels that If China fails to insist upon
the immediate disarmament Of the
Russian ships at Shanghai her neutral
ity will have been violated and in a
manner so dangerous to Japan's own
military interests that Japan will be
forced to take such measures as will
effectively remove from the stage OF
activity the Russian ships which have
sought refuge In Shanghai
3 In state department circles the opin-
ion is expressed that the Russian ships
will soon be dfsarmed, and both at
the state and navy departments advices
have been received that the incident is
regarded in Shanghai as practically
closed It was suggested that the effect
of Japan's note probably would be to
strengthen the determination of the
Chinese officials to maintain the neu-
tralrty of the Picking government not
only at Shanghai but at other points
where an attempt may be made to vio-
late it.
