New York April 27.-It has been learned on
unimpeachable authority that Bob Fitzsimmons
and Jack o'Brien had agreed to fake their
Gently cancelled fight which was to have taken
place at the Tuxedo Athletic club at Essington,
Pa. incidentally the same authority declares
that Fitzsimmons received the major portion OF
the purse in his contest with O'Br1en ON the
Pacific coast. ..s
According to the foregoing authority when
the Cornishman came east after his defeat at
the hands of O'Brien he Informed his friends
in explanation Of his setback that his domestic
troubles were responsible for his collapse. His
advisers urged him to take On O'Brien again
and prove to the sporting public that he is not
a "has-ben." Fitzsimmons agreed and Tom
! O'Rourke, matchmaker Of the Tuxedo club. Of
fered large purse for second fight between
I, Fiezsimmons and O'Brien
Held Conference. -
The latter two held conference at which
ways and means were devised whereby Fitz was
to lose. For his defeat he was to receive
larger share Of the purse than OBrien. He
agreed to "lay down" between the tenth and
fifteenth rounds. This was entirely satisfactory
to 0'Brien, who knows that q pretended
Knockout victim Fitz has no equal in the ring
1t will be remembered that several years ago
Fftz and Jeff Thorne, then the champion middle
weight Of England, toured the country giving
exhibition bouts in which Fitz time and again
feigned Inconsistencies after receiving what ap-
peared to the spectators to be: a hard blow.
Fftz since he lost the championship to Jeffries
never was so impoverished at the present
time, and he is said to have willingly entered
into the arrangement with .O'Brien whereby he
was to suffer another defeat by Brten.
Fitz Wanted Glory.
Both men after their conference began light
work for their bout Fitz, being assured Of
most of the money, came to the conclusion that
he was entitled to a little Of the glory re-
sulting from the bout: He therefore mapped
out strenuous training campaign, being conf
dent that if he was in f1rstclass condition he
could easily dispose Of O'Brien. He informed
o'Rorwke Of his plans.
O'Rourke did not object, because he preferred
to the victor of the bout win on his merits.
A few days later Fitz' double-cross scheme came
to the knowledge Of O'Brien, who, greatly ex-
cited. rushed to O'Rourke and demanded more
money than he had agreed to fight for. =
O'Rourke called his attention to the fact that
he had signed articles which stated clearly the
amount of money the winner and loser were to
receive. 0Brien's astonishing rejoinder was
that unless O'Rourke posted. large of
money, which to be forfeited to him II the
doublecross deal was to be put thru, and unless
Fitz signed agreement forfeiting his share
of the purse If he took advantage Of any open
ings and knocked out OBrien, he (O'Brien)
would call off the match. OF course Fitz and
O'Rourke refused pointblank to enter into suc,
arrangement.
