Tenny's MANAGER Here

Mark Shaughnessey, who was man
ager for Harry TennW when he en-
gagged in the fatal battle with frankie
Neil, is in Los Angeles renewing ac-
quaintances made when he resided here
two years ago.
Shaughnessey says that Tenny acted
peculiarly before going into the ring
and says that he appeared to be de-
spondent because Of an idle remark
made by a newsboy a few days previous
to the bout.
Tenny was riding on a street car on
his way to the training quarters when
a newsboy jumped aboard and said to
Tenny: Neil will kill you when you
get into the ring with him."
Tenny frequently spoke of the re-
mark and seemed to be unusually
affected by it. Shaughnessey tried to
| cheer him up, but to no avail.
When Tenny knocked Neil into the
ropes in the early rounds and appeared
to have the battle won should he step
in and finish Neil with the knockout
that was expected to follow, he stood
in the center of the ring with his guard
up and refused to stir, although his
seconds yelled to him to go in and
finish Neil.
When he returned to his corner and
was childed by his seconds for not
| taking advantage Ol lIle SlIudlloIli
| Tenny said he could not have done sc
if his life had been hanging in the
balance. Further than that he could
| not explain.
| From that moment until he was
knocked out he fought as f in 8
trance and could do nothing. This
caused comment, and Shaughnessey
says that he believes Tenny was "buf-
faloed" by the newsboy's prediction
and could not get away from 1t.
| Shaughnessey will remain in Los

ENTERTAINS NIGHTHAWKS
Broker Plays Tag In Cab With Police
and Goes to Station for
Drink
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, April S-To prove to
the theater crowds that he was AM ex-
pert whip, Edward Jerome, a Broad
street broker who lives at 375 Central
Park west, hired a cab in Long Acre
square last night and for half an hour
had half the police in the upper Ten
derloin chasing him.
The broker was dressed in evening
clothes. He sang lively air as he sig
zaged up Broadway and caromed his
way to Churchilfs restaurant. There
he made his boast
II am the most expert whip in the
country" he declared.
He accepted the challenge by hiring
John Riley's cab. He ordered the cab
man to be his passenger and paid him
we'll to risk himself inside the vehicle.
He said he would buy the cab If Riley
was not satisfied
Long Acre square was congested with
carriages and automobiles. Mr. Jerome
whipped up the cab horse and started
around one of the roped Enclosures. He
lashed the horse until 1t was galloping
at top speed.
Policemen tried to stop the horse but
Jerome lashed them with his whip.
Trolley cars and cabs had to stop while
the broker drove wildly from one end
of the square to the other. He shouted
like a Comanche Indian until a great
crowd had gathered.
Policeman McComb succeeded in
switching Jerome from his race course
by inviting him to have a drink at q
road house on West Forty-seventh
street Jerome said he would race the
policeman there. McComb agreed and
instructed Jerome to drive west until
he came to two green lights.
When Policeman McComb arrived at
the West Forty-seventh street police
station he found Jerome inside trying
to induce Sergt. Boylan to give him
a drink. He was locked up after more
than $1,000 and some jewelry had been
taken away from him. His name does
not appear in the city directory.
"He will sleep soundy, as his name
is Jerome" said a detective.

JOCKEY HILDEBRAND ELOPES
Confirmation That He Ran Away With
Bookmaker's Wife Received in
Letter at New Orleans

Special to The Herald.
NEW ORLEANS, April S.-Rumors
that Eugene Hildebrand, the we'll
known jockey, and Mrs. May Yeager,
wife of Joe Yeager, had eloped from
Hot Springs have been confirmed by
letters received here by prominent race
track men from Hot Springs. These
letters declare that Hldebrand and
Mrs. Yeager disappeared the same day
and that they have since been seen
together in Chicago.
In letter received here by a book
maker, it was said Yeager admitted
his wife had run away, but that he
was not worrying himself about it.
When the jockey was injured by
falling off his horse at Memphis, Mrs.
Yeager was one of the first at his
side, and she gave him her personal
attention until he recovered.

brother of Jimmy, and almost as hand.

protner OI JIMMY, ana dllnOSC as ndnu-
some.
The Frisco newspapers heralded the
approach of Willus to Los Angeles ano
announced that he was coming to the
Angel City for the purpose of calling
off the Britt-Herman match.
Particular interest is attached to the
visit of the talking member of the
duo combination for this reason, and
as he stepped from the train he was
seized by anxious friends and greeted
with the heart rending query of "Is
it true?"
mo, what is it?" replied willus
"Enlighten me as to the cause of your
deplorable mental state and command
me if 1 may be able to alleviate your
sufferings."
When informed that some bastard
had officially announced that the
Britt-Herman battle would be called
off and transferred to one of the scenes
of mitt activity under the jurisdiction
of the fight trust, the Britt end of
the trust said:
Believe me, it is not true. oh,
how could such shocking things get
out? Somebody is trying to knock
the gate receipts because Jimmy is to
box on a percentage basis"
And then he dropped into a serious
vein and said that while there were
some minor details yet uncompleted,
the battle would surely be pulled off
on schedule time unless it should be-
come apparent that the plethora of
Ticket Man would initiate against
the financial end of the mill.
No Chance for Trust
Willus said that he was here to in
vestigate this proposition, and if he
became convinced that Jimmy would
box before a full house there would be
no hitch in the proceedings.
Il will say that the report that there
is a probability of the battle being
transferred to Frisco Is without foun-
dation. There is no chance of such
a happening.
IF Jimmy and Herman mix 1t will
be right here in Los Angeles. Nc
Carey secured the match and we will
not stand for any interference with
him in pulling it off unless it appears
that by making other matches for
battles so near to the date of Jimmys
scrap he has injured the drawing
powers of the card.
"Of course, Jimmy is no preliminary
fighter and would not engage in any
such a bout, but he will go on with
the match with Herman unless it ap-
pears that it will not be a drawing
card.
Jimmy left yesterday for the noun
tains for a two-weeks' outing with
Sam Berger, and will box in the open
air and train while away. He is al
ways in good condition and only needs
this outdoor work as a preliminary to
putting on the finishing touches.
THE Santa Monica training quarters
will be used by him during the final
fortnight preceding the battle, when
he will do all the hard work necessary
to put him in first-class condition.
"All we want to know is that when
Jimmy steps into the ring he will not
box before a cheap house. If the
match was put on at date when other
battles would not conflict there would
be no question as to the size of the
house, and if we are assured that the
mill will be patronized according to its
worth as an attraction it will surely
go on"

FRESNO, April S.-Portland won
again today by superior hitting Hen
derson twirled in great form, holding
Fresno to four hits, while Schmidt
was raped for nine, four being
punched in the fifth inning and being
responsible for two of the runs.
Lister scored all of Portland's runs
with timely hits. Cartwright the
Fresno amateur, being tried by Fresno
at first, played a phenomenal fielding
game and connected with Henderson

AtteII Is a Wonder

Attel is not only a worlds feaher-
weight champion, but he is acknowl-
edged as the worlds boxing champion
in that there is none so clever as he in
the science of boxing.
Opponents of Attell in the ring
usually tell funny stories after the
battle in which the burden of the story
is that the audience was continually
throwing gloves at them.
The little champion is lightning fast
on his feet and with his fists he be-
wilders his opponent with lavish,
display of the pair of gloves he wears
and is able to put most of them into
a trance by sheer cleverness.
Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, who is
the handiest glove artist in the heavy
weight division and knows all the tricks
of the trade says that Attell is the
king of all boxers and in contest for
a decision on points he would mortgage
his homo to bet on him.
Abe does not depend wholly upon his
cleverness with the gloves to win his
battles, however, and is as foxy a
ring general as exists these days. He
Is also a marvel at footwork, which
does not mean that he runs away and
tires out his opponent in a foot race,
but he can step some, and this stands
him in good stead in avoiding punish
ment.
In rushing into close quarters, mixing
it effectively and getting away with
out, return by his opponent, he is a
past master, and from the time the
gong rings for the start of hostilities
until it is all ended he is going at a
rate that is amazing.
When he fought Eddie Hanlon he
illustrated the value of footwork and
almost lost a fast friend by his taunt-
ing words and manner. Eddie con-
stantly bored in and fought in his
crouch while Attell jabbed away and
side-stepped to avoid return from
Eddie's haymakers.
After Attell had repeated this ope-
ration several times he began to tease
Hanlon by showering jabs upon his
covered-up head and side-stepping as
Eddie bored in under protection of his
crouch and fought the open air, unable
to reach Attell.
AS Eddie proceeded to fan the all
with his jabs at nothing, with Attel
on the other side of the ring, Abe usu-
ally yelled to Eddie, "over this way
Eddie. Come over here
The audience took UP the thought
and weaved it into many similar anc
taunting remarks on each occasion thai
Attell side-stepped from harms reach
Eddie became so enraged that he stood
up and uncovered, boxing in this man
ner for the remainder of the journey
After the battle he swore off ever box
ing with Attell again.
