knew very much about boxing, but
they wanted to learn, and We're anxious
also that the public should assist them
by paying for the exhibition. Chinese
are reported to be much interested in
fighting just now as we'll as the Jap
anese and it was thought that the fight
would draw large audience.
The High Sheriff was consulted about
the matter and he Immediately put his
foot down upon it. He objected to
having a fight pulled off by irrespon-
sible parties. Sheriff Brown stated
yesterday that the boys who wanted
to appear in the roped arena knew very
little of scientific fighting, and he was
afraid if the fight was allowed it would
degenerate within very few minutes
after the start into a free for all in
which everyone would feel obliged to
participate. Mr.. Brown stated that
the fight promoters We're making a big
kick about his decision, but he did not
intend to change it. The parties back
of the scheme are said to be irrespon-
sihle and the High Sheriff does not
intend to take any chances of having
the fight become riot. The fight
was scheduled for next Saturday, and
the promoters had started to have tick
cts printed in anticipation of pulling it
off, according to program and without
interference from the police.
