JEFF SAYS MATCH
WITH SOUIRES IS
BUTA FAIRY TALE
DISPLEASRD WITH DELANEY'S ACTION
Burbank Farmer Demands $4,000 at Least as
His Share and Declares That He Will Not
Enter the Ring for Less Amount

%OMES another chapter of the JEFF
fries-squires serial, in which Billy
Delaney of Kaufman fame re-
ceives what scientists now declare Eve
handed Adam, namely, juicy lemon.
"If Billy Delaney thinks 1 am going
out to that sage brush country and
fight for less than 100000 he is badly
mistaken. l have just received a tele-
gram from him in which he tells of
matching me with Squires. l don't like
the color of the match, and so far as
am concerned there is nothing doing If

big purses, but they are not going to
work this sort of game on me.
"O'Brien and Burns are going to get
$4,000 between them, and l think 1 car
get that much for myself. Anyhow,
that's what 1 intend holding out for"
Thus spoke the mighty James Jeffries,
ex-retired, heavyweight champion of
the world, last night, after receiving
official word that he had been matched
to battle with Squires, the more or less
mysterious Australian, for q purse Of
$50, 000.
Something like skepticism greeted
Jeff's announcement, and when he was
statement he waXed angry.
"All right, you can say anything you
want, but they won't get me in the ring
for less than $30,0OO If 1 can't get that,
why me for the farm"
Just where this affair is to end no
man can foretell. 1t now appears that
Billy Delaney is more or less respon-
sible for the mess, in that he took it
upon himself to sign Jeffries without
the big fellows consent.
Despite the fact that Jeff denied
Thursday evening Rhyolite assertion
that he had consented to a $30, 900 Offer
reports received from San Francisco
Friday led to a belief that oeffries had
given his former manager, Billy De-
laney, full sway in the matter. Just
how Delaney will explain the situation
may bring forth some interesting data.
Delaney, of course, will say that he was
given to understand by Jeffries that
he said might go. Neverthe-
les jeff after hearing that Delaney
had matched him, would not agree that
the bout was as good as arranged,
Billy Delaney's apparent haste in
wishing to secure Jeffries' signature
to a set of articles has assumed some
what of a queer aspect. Rhyolite man.
ayers, as they have frequently asserted,
do not care a snap for the principals,
desiring advertisement for the mining
regions. Jeff, it appears, was to be the
foil for the carefully, if not wisely, laid
plans. Delaney as the Rhyolite people
people well knew, possessed consider
able influence with the big fellow, and
doubtless offered to make it well worth
while should he catch Jeff mapping.

for less than personal recompense of
$4,000 jeff said last night:
when the report came down that I
had been signed [ was unwilling to
state whether the match was good, as
| wantedNto be certain just how much
| they intended to give me. Jack O'Brien
and Tommy Burns are to get $50, 900,
and 1 think l ought to get more than
that. If they are worth $4,000 between
them am going to hold out for $50, 900
for myself SO long as 1 get that much
they can give the other fellow a million
/ If they think he's worth it,"
If Jim Jeffrles remains true to his
word a certain northern click that de-
sired to humbug Jeff into a match
which If made would not appear in a
favorable light has received a setback
| that Will be satisfactory to admirers Of
the big farmer.
In the first place it is difficult to see
why Delaney and the Rhyolitian, Tay-
lor, found 1t necessary to leave Los
Angeles for the purpose of signing JEFF
ries. The move is regarded here as a
brainless one in view of the fact that
with Jeff on the ground they would
have no cause for making fools of
themselves by signing a bogus set of
articles. jeff could have dictated per-
sonally, and did his objections overrule
the ridiculous light in which they have
placed themselves might easily have
been avoided.
AS it was they made haste to reach
the dying fight trust home and lay an
other pugilistic corpse where it right
fully belongs.
Unless there comes further shocks,
Jeffries intends to remain from the
ropes until he is guaranteed at least
the persuasive sum of 100000. 1t may
be that some hasty criticism was di
rected toward Jeff on the streets yes
terday after it became known that De-
laney had signed him with Squires.
This especially In view of the fact that
Jeff had persistently denied having
given the former power of attorney.
Squres Not Attractive
At any event the situation remains
for development. Jeff, if he refuses to
sign with Squir :, will not lose friends
but rather gain them, as there is no
particular reason why he should take
on practically unknown. Squires may
have a great record in Australia, but
Australia is not America, and Califor-
MIA joins hands with Missouri when
new pugilistic entries are in order.
1t now appears that Jim Jeffries was
speaking the truth when he said re-
peatedly that he had not given Delaney
full power to act for him. Naturally
enough Jeff would be willing should
anyone start out in an effort to make
money for him, but if the efforts are
not satisfactory nothing of Importance
is likely to occur.
AS the situation stands Billy Delaney
had made himself a laughing stock,
while Jeffries stands open to further
offers.

WHY SHAW WILL
RIDE IN EUROPE
LARGE SALARY APPEALS To
CLEVER JOCKEY
In a Letter to a Friend He Explains
the Situation FuIly-To Re-
turn to America Next
Year

Because of a rumor that has been in
circulation for some time that Jockey
Willie Shaw had received quiet tip
that he might ride to better advantage
on the European tracks, a friend of the
jockey has written a long letter to a
well known racing man explaining the
situation.
SHAW could remain here if he want
ed to, but the offer of $4,000 and all
expenses to ride in Austria for one
year proved so tempting that Mrs.
Shaw induced her husband to accept.
But in all probability Shaw will ride
in New York again in 1908," says the
letter.
1T is true that he has been in
trouble with the turf powers on several
occasions, and that he was severely
criticised for his handling of Election
eer in the Flatbush stakes, but there
were other proofs that Shaw rode hon
estly when it would have been to his
advantage and that of his friends to
do otherwise.

take Grapple up at the outset and ride
a waiting race. But when somebody
tried to convince Farrell, the owner
of Grapple, who had lost on the lat
ter's defeat, that Shaw had not ridden
to the best of his ability, Farrell turned
quickly and said:
SHAW rode a perfect race. He
obeyed my orders to the letter, and

"In Shaw's absence Farrell and
Johnson have decided to turn over
their saddle work to Jack Martin, a
finished horseman, who is known as

than passing interest in the various
plans.
