TEX RICHARD
Promoter Says Johnson
Must Earn Right to
Fight Jeffries.
BILL SQUIREs GOOD.
Offer of $4,000 for Burns and
O'Brien In Ring With Champion
Still Stands.

Tex Richard, the Goldneld fight pro-
moter. passed through Chicago yester-
day. just staying long enough to put
crtmp in that New York story which
told of his having offered Jim Jeffries
and Jack Johnson a purse of $50, 900 for
finish battle at Goldfeld in May
Richard branded the yarn as false and
blamed Sam Fitzpatrick, Johnson's en-
terprising manager for having origin
ated and given out the story.
Fitzpatrick asked me-" said Richard
IF I would allow him to give John
son a boost at my expense. I said go
ahead, but little did I think he would
try to make a fool of me and circu-
late such ridiculous story made
no such statement as 1 was credited
with in New York, and 1 repudiated
the story before 1 left.
No Communication With JEFF.
l have had no communication what
ever with Jeffries relative to a battle,
and would not give a purse for Johnson
and the champion until the negro had
earned the right for such a battle by
first defeating Burns and O'Brien. The
same goes for the Australian, Bill
Squires I hear he is a good man, and
that he wants to come to this country
and meet JEFF for the championship,
but, like Johnson. he will have to show
me by whipping a few of our lesser
lights before I will give him a fight
for such money.
Il Will say this, however, that I will
give a purse of $4,000 to Jeffries and
the first man that shows class enough
70 ba cODsfdarad desfra HE OpDouent
by the public. 1 believe such a fight
would draw $780, 900 in Nevada, even
II the champions opponent went into
the ring on the short end OF the bet
ting. at about to 10.
My offer of $4,000 purse for JEFF
fries to meet Burns and OBrien in the
same ring was bone fide and still
stands. but 1 have not asked Jefries
If he would undertake a double con-
tract Of that kind. Although 1 made
that offer. it does not appeal to me
particularly, as neither bout would be
a contest.

LONG SHOTS WIN;
PUBLIC MAKES BIG HAUL.
Racing ut New Orleans City Park En-
livened by Success of Rank Out
siders and Bookies Suffer.

New Orleans. La. Dec. 20.-City
parks sport was enlivened today by
the victories of couple OF long shots
OF the real long variety and the card
ended with another not so long gal
Looping home with the coin. Strangely
enough, the races IN which the horses
at fat odds scored brackets were the
best events OF the day and furnished
the real sport
Rebounder, always as good as IS to
1 in the betting. was the first one to
upset the careful calculations and give
the bookies a much needed breathing
spell. There were but six in the field
to go once around the oval and Old
Stone and Kleinwood were the ones
looked upon as best Neither, how
ever, got any slice of the money.
Rebounder was we'll handled by
Jockey Lloyd. who kept him out in
front most OF the way and at the end
had enough left TO outfnish Harma-
kis, a 5 TO l chance. by quarters
OF a length, with Flavigny, at 10 to !.
q distant third.

Trouble Expected at New
Orleans Where Compe-
tition Is Strong.
FIGHT CHINESE WALL
Merry Go-Round Won't Go Out of the
Business In Spite of Jockey
Clubs Warning.

New Orleans, La, Dec. 20.-Anothe err
race track war has been declared. To-
day the Suburban Racing association,
which conducts a race track at Algiers,
just across the river, announced that
in the future it would hold meetings
every holiday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Heretofore the track has been oper-
ated only on Sunday.
The move is in retaliation for the
rulings recently made by the Crescent
City Jockey club and the New Orleans
Jockey club, warning all owners, train
ers, and Jockeys from participation in
the Sunday merry go round on penalty
of being ruled off the track. This
order caused a number of horse and
jockeys to be withdrawn from the
Algiers track.
Confronted by seculsion of the worst
kind with Chinese wall barring out
all trainers. owners, Jockeys. and
horses, and with only limited supply
of racing material on hand to draw
from. the Alglers club determined to
enter the enemys territory and they
sent bomb into their rivals camp by
publishing a program for Christmas
day. The card is made up of six races
with a $500 handicap. The manage
ment believes by Offering liberal purs es
and assuring plenty of racing to own
ers, that many hOrsemen will leave the
ranks of the old tracks and cast their
lot with them. They expect to re
ceive their share of patronage, as they
will charge only so cents admission
while they big courses demand $3.50
for the grand stand.

Los Angeles, Cal, Dec. 20.-After
careful training AL kaufman and Geo.
Gardner. who fight here tomorrow
night. have rested today, doing moth
ing but very light training.
Both fighters are reported to be in
excellent condition. Kaufman will be
much the heavier, probably entering
the ring close to 100 pounds, while
Gardner Will weight near 175 pounds.
This fight is harder for the bettors
to figure who Will be the probable
winner than any fight that has taken
place here in years. Should Gardner
show his old-time form. he will win in
short order, but If he has gone back,
Kaufman. with youth and strength on
his side will make it short fight.
The betting is slow tonight. Kauf-
man is favorite at 2 to l, with little
Gardner money In sight
