the fighters in the clinches. He will let
them fight till they drop from exhaustion.
just as long as they are going under the
clean break and fighting straight Mar
quis of Queensberry rules. This will GER
tainly suit Nelson for in his former fight
with Britt he raised the cry that Billy
Roche did not give him an even break in
the clinches.
The selection of Jeffries, therefore,
should give perfect satisfaction to the
two fighters. as well to the general pub
lie, but now another question arises. Will
he take the job? JEFF is a very peculiar
man in many ways, and should he take it
into his head to decline the job all the
persuasion in the world will not make
him change his mind. However, Manager
Coffroth will communicate with the big
fellow bright and early this morning, and
by tonight it will be definitely known
whether or not he viii accept the billet
In the event that JEFF refuses it looks
as If. the fight will go by the board, for
then there will be no other man in the
world that Nolan and Britt can possibly
agree upon. During the last three days
they have practically exhausted the vis-
ible supply of referees. and not one of
them would suit both parties.

after his eight-nile road work, Bat
Ting and his satellites entered
the bath house at Escalles. The party
discarded their sweat-damp clothing and
emerged clad in bathing suits The water
felt good to them and the sturdy little
Dane enjoyed 1t immensely. Twelve min
nutes from the time he entered the water
he was lying on the slab receiving a
good rubbing. Then he sauntered leis-
urely homeward, where an inviting meal
was awaiting him in his cottage.
Bat did justice to the meal, thoroughly
masticating all his food and joshing Billy
Nolan about his prepossessing high fore
head. He allowed his muscles to relax
for a short time and then read the papers.
He has added another well-known athlete
to his camp in the person of George
Braun, the champion amateur welter and
middle weight wrestler of the Pacific
Coast, who will spar and wrestle with
Battling Braun is in excellent condition,
and is a valuable addition.
Bats outdoor work was about the same
as on Sunday He wrestled three strong
bouts with Braun. Clever little Bob Lun-
die did his three rounds as usual. To-day
he will box and wrestle with Braun and
Angel.

Another likely looking bout on the
card is the one scheduled between Pete
Sullivan and Jack Rodney. The latter
has met and defeated the best boys in
his class during the last few months

away he will be regarded as a real

BARRY AND BURNS AT WORK.
Both Boxers Are Now Within Striking
Distauce Of WEIGHT.

That there will be no forfeiting for
weight I'm the contest between Dave
Barry and Tommy Burns was shown con-
clusively yesterday when both principals
exhibited weight which brings them
close enough to the stipulated figure to
enable them to hit 1t at few hours
notice IL necessary. When Dave Barry
finished fifty minutes exercise in his
gymnasium yesterday he weighed 159
pounds, just one pound to the wrong side
of the limit.
With Burns it had been more of a
task and he has been a few pounds over
the past several days and this morning
he started the drying out system and
when he quit work this afternoon he
weighed 161 pounds, just three pounds
more than he IS supposed to weigh at 8
o'clock next Thursday Burns says he
can reduce pound each day until Thurs
day, and, with a little walk on the road
on the morning of the contest, he will
be just at the mark agreed upon.
