that he or any other man now in the
ring can outpoint me in a six-round
fight
MEN COMPARED WITH JEFFRIES.
In view of the bearing the fight to-
night will have on the world s cham
pionship title it is interesting to COM
pare Jefries with the youthful as
pirants for his title. While both Ber-
ger and Kaufman are young giants
they suffer by comparison with the
present holder of the title. While all
three are of practically the same height
the remaining measurements show the
man from Burbank to be abnormal in
his great physical strength. He meas
ures six inches more about the chest;
nearly three inches on the forearm, an
inch and half on the biceps, an inch
and a half on the thigh and two inches
on the calf.
Coupled with these formidable mus
cles is an advantage of twenty five
pounds in weight which gives an al
most irresistible force to the move
ments of the mighty Jeffries In ad-
dition to these physical advantages the
big fellow proved in his fight with
Jim Corbett that he is clever boxer
and that he possesses remarkable speed
for man of his size. Whether his alb
sence from the ring has impaired any
of his lighting qualities is a question
which can only be answered by the
test of competition. Jeffries had so
much class over the men he met in the
ring at the highest development of
his powers that he will have to go back
lot before any one now before the
public can be conceded a chance with
him.
Billy Delaney will try to curb an
evil tonight which has been develop
ing for years and which has reached
unusual proportions recently. This is
the matter of volunteer seconds pre-
senting themselves at the ringsid4
and forcing their services upon boxers.
Whether it is. from desire to pose In
the limelight or to secure advan-
tageous point from which to witness
the fight is hard to determine. Billy
Delaney has asked Referee Jack Welsh
to enforce the old London prize ring
rules limiting the men in corner to
two seconds and a bottle holder. There
is no Queensberry rule governing this
point so recourse is had to the old time
rule. Delaney says Berger can have
all the men he wants in his corner, but
he does not want to be hampered by
outsiders in the handling of Kaufman.
Manager Jim Coffroth has made his
preparations for this fight in keeping
with its Importance. The boxes and
seats have been laid out with the same
care that marked the championship
fights he promoted in Mechanics Pa
vilion before the fire. AS the big fight
is what the spectators are there to
see there will be but one preliminary.
The big men will be in the ring at S:45
o'clock and 1t will not take long to
dispose of the small details. The action
should be on by 8 o'clock at the latest.

Cleuerness and Strength of Men
Insure an Exciting Encounter.
By r. A. Sn1ytI1.

Sam Berger and Al kaufman will
in the Pavilion Rink, Sutter and Stein
er streets, which has a direct bearing
on the heavyweight championship of
the world. Big Jim Jeffries is safely
intrenched in the position at present.
but there is an age limit to athletic
activity. and there will come a time
when the present holder of the title,
either through lack of desire or the
waning of his remarkable strength,
will no longer defend his honors.
There are four candidates for the
title he holds-the two young athletes
who meet tonight AMI oacs O'Brien
and Tommy Burns, who meet next
month in Los Angeles. The winners of
these fights will meet some day. and
the survivor undoubtedly will be rec
ognized as the legitimate successor to
the mighty Jeffries.
After seeing Fitzsimmons and other
relics of the ring in action so often in
recent years 1t will be a relief to the
patrons of boxing to see two fresh
young boys put on the five-ounce gloves
berry rules.
BOTH BOXERS ARE CLEVER.
Both are graduates of the Olympic
Club and are considered worthy sue
cessors of Jim Corbett the most pol
ished boxer ever developed within its
walls OF the two Berger is credited
with possessing the greater skill, but
Kaufman is close second. He is not
a snowy boxer, but he has a useful
style which should carry him through
the sharpest competition successfully.
Coupled with this is his known ability
as a hard hitter and his possession of
gameness which will ctand the sever
est test.
For no apparent reason Berger has
been an in-and-outer in his short but
neteoric career in the ring. When
something out of the ordinary is ex-
pected of him he falls down wofully,
and then he comes out and performs
brilliantly. This mas given him an un-
merited reputation or being faintheart-
ed, which he has shown on occasion he
does not deserve. Many do not take
his athletic claims seriously. as he does
not show the mighty thews and sinews
which some fighters develop. Berger
is naturally round bodied, but beneath
the coating of flesh there are muscles
Of steel. Many close students of the ring
believe in this extra flesh when there
is perfect physical condition beneath.
The flesh serves as a cushion and pro-
tects the delicate organs which are so
near the. surface
BETToRs SEEM ALL AT SEA.
The betting on the fight was not of
sufficient volume yesterday to indi-
cate with certainty what the price will
be tonight when the men enter the
ring or to show which man will be the
ruling favorite. There is a lot of money
in sight, but the followers of Berger
want to place theirs at even money.
while the Kaufman adherents want
odds of 10 to 8.
Jack O'Brien reached here from Los
Angeles yesterday and will be an in
terested spectator at the ringside.
O'Brien shows an ipclination to string
with Kaufman. He has proved both
a slayer and hitter" he said yester-
day. while Berger has never gone a
route He surely could not have kept
up the pace set in our fight in Phila-
delphia for twenty rounds. Persons

BANDAGEs MUST BE SOFT.
Billy Delaney Insists That the Articles
Be Lived Up To I'm This Matter.

Billy Delaney, Kaufman's manager,
will insist tonight that Berger use only
soft surgical bandages on his hands. 1t
was thought this matter was disposed
of at the time the articles were signed.
but the veteran trainer seems to have
doubts that Berger will live up to the
agreement. Delaney does not want a
repetition of the incidents of the Fitz-
simmons-Je Jeffries fight, when the Cor
nishman used bandages Of electric
tape. THIS hardened and was like steel.
Every blow landed by Fitz cut Jeffries
badly. 1t is to avoid a repetition of
this that Delaney is making his present
stand Kaufman is to have the services
of Jack (Twin) Sullivan In his corner.
This will give him an experienced corps
OF handlers. --
