now. 1 always knew that this fell
low was the greatest faker In the
business, Last December he came
to my house twice on Adams street
for the purpose of framing UP deal
whereby he could retain his fame.
"He wanted me to lay down and
offered me the winners end of the
purse. I wouldn't stand for 1t at
first, but agreed when L found out
that 1t was the only way to get him
In the ring.
"The last time he left my home it
was with the understanding that L
was to go out I'm the eleventh round.
He gave me this line of talk:
"T know haven't n chance I'm the
world to beat you, Tommy, and have
everything TO lose. 1t won't hurt
you so much to be defeated as 1t Will
me. 1 would be down aud OUT
81 decided then and there that the
chance had come to expose this man
to the world and resolved to do so.
I didn't even tell Tom McCarey and
O'Brien went away to Nevada or
some other place.
"After the Melody Sullivan battle
McCarey came to me and asked me
what was i'm the air. I admitted to
him that had agreed to lay down In
the eleventh round, but meant to
double cross O'Brien by having all
bets declared off and then thrashing
the life out of him.
"NIcCarey didn't like 1t mt first, but
when told him that 1t wns the only
way to get O'Brien in the ring, he
agreed and O'Brien wns told that the
deal was on.
"Everything was arranged as care
fully as possible and the O'Brien
crowd did not have an in~ling of
what was to occur. After Referee
EytOn called us to the center of the
ring 1 returned to my corner and
stepped outside the ropes for fear
the gong would sound before bets
were declared off.
"YOu remember how O'Brien sat
in his corner and waited for ten Sec
onds before facing me. He was so
struck with surprise and fear that
he was unable to get out of his chair.
Remember how he rushed to the
ropes. On the square, thought he
was going to jump out of the ring.
"When L got near enough to talk
said,
SNOW, you cur, I've got you where
1 want you and you've got to fight
on the square,
"Of course he knew that he mad
fallen into one of the traps which he
has set so many times. IL he didn't
know how hated him before hope
he realizes 1t now"

Ice. 1t was shutout score. too and
Wnlle the locals made as many safe

the most good.
FREDDIE Bergeman tossed them over

good form. But he was up against

his hghting togs and grew real stingy
Wnen IL came to delivering the safe
ones where the Angels could WALTON
them.
Frisco's runs came in a bunch in the
second inning, when Hildebrand
stung a nice one on the mark for a
single TO center. Irwin bit at three
cholce ones, and while he was doing
1t Hide tore off the distance over the
second relay, purloining the keystone
pillow in safety.
Nick Williams saw four that looked
pad TO Derrick, so he hiked for first
and after Murphy went out on f1v

scored Hide and Williams with dou-

them to meet me Wednesday morning
and hear what had to say.
"McCarey came up here in this room.
I called them both. What Nolan called
O'Brien and McCarey mustn't have
sounded nice to them. 1 furthermore
said that I wanted to wash my hands
of the whole affair and would do so
unless McCarey made a guarantee that
O'Brien would get something or other.
wanted at least five or six thousand.
"O'Brien finally agreed to. take Nc
Carey's word for it. The understand
ing then was that O'Brien was to win
a twenty-round decision and Burns re-
ceive $35OO from O'Briens 80 per cent.
"McCarey showed us signed article
from Burns that he would agree to
fight clean breaks. This had been pro-
posed and agreed upon some time be-
fore, but McCarey did not wish to
make public the fact.
1T was a miserable arrangement in
the first place. and l did my best to
break 1t up. wanted either one OF
the men to find some excuse rather
] than get them in the ring under the

the Twin claimed that his condition was
not of the best and promises that this
time no such excuses will be in order
should he again get the worst of it,
It's shame that tonight's fight fol-
lows so closely on the heels of Wednes-
days fiasco, for no repetition of that
affair is likely to occur. Neither mans
record is blemished with crooked work
of any sort and the fans who pungle
up their little change for the mill are
sure to get more for it than they did
from the high-priced attraction % of
Wednesday.
Two good preliminaries, one of ten
and the other of six rounds duration,
have been arranged, and the evenings s
card will undoubtedly be a good one.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-05-10
M'cAREYS SAY

IkhuS HE whole affair was arranged
In order to double cross Jack
O'Brien after he proposed
that Burns should 1ny down and
receive the winners end of the
purse.
"O'Brien came to me in my office
few hours before the MelIody-Sul-
Iivan battle May rs. He submitted
proposition relative to Burns Gay-
ing down. 1 absolutely refused to
consider IT, but O'Brien persisted and
him ont on the subject.
"T met Burns at the ringside and
later brought the question to bear.
Burns admitted that he had already
agreed to lay down in the eleventh
round, at the same time asserting
his intention Of double crossing
O'Brien. When / saw that Burns
really meant to fight 1 agreed and 1t
was planned to declare all bets of at
the last minute and then clang the
gong before OBrien had a chance to
make any sort of n break.
"O'Hricn was then Informed that
the deal WINS on and everything went
as arranged, an understanding being
made with O'Brien that he refrain
from betting. 1 saw chance to
take advantage or O'Brten ana 1Orce0
him to accept 80 per cent of the
gross receipts instead of the purse
cut. Burns was to take $4,000 as
his end.
81 will say this for Billy Nolan:
He knew nothing of the arrangement
until two days before the fight was
scheduled to occur, when 1 limited to
him what was in the air. Nolan
wanted to find some way out of 1t.
"Referee Charlie EytOn did not
know the reason when 1 ordered all
bets off and had no iden of the
trouble.
"SOme have advised me not to al
low O'Brien n cent, but L will pay
him off and let him go his wny as the
vilest faker that ever stepped foot
in ring. / do not blame Tommy
Burns and consider that he did the
only thing possible under the cir
cumstances.
$50 far as being criticised for
doing what did fnil to see where
the crowd could have been given n
better run for its money. When
O'Brien finally realized that there
was nothing in 1t but fight he fought
his battle. He never stood n chance
with Burns, however, and knew 1t.
1When 1 agreed to the proposition
1 knew that the betting public would
not suffer and thought the crowd
would get just as good an exhibition
as under ordinary circumstances"
Los Angeles herald., 1907-05-10

Kenys few fights in this city have
proved to the fans that he is as good
as his reputation bespeaks. His fight
with Tommy Burns here, when Nc
Carey opened the present pavilion, was
a hummer and although Tommy had a
shade the best of it Kelly was right
there at the end of the final round. 1t
will be remembered that the men
agreed to a draw decision in case both
were on their feet at the end of the
fight, and that was the verdict rendered
by the referee.
Sullivan has fought here too often of
late to call for any comment on his rec
ord, and the Toupee wonder has always
given his admirers a run for their
money. The last time he fought Kelly
Los Angeles herald., 1907-05-10

conditions which I thought were to
govern the fight.
"McCarey and Burns evidently de-
cided to do the double cross act at
the last moment When Eyton de-
clared all bets off O'Brien turned to
me and said, "Well. guess this means
straight rules
IT told him to go ahead and do his
best 1 know it was the rottenest pre-
tension of a ring battle that could be
imagined. L urged O'Brien to go hard
er, but he complained of his hands,"
Just what effect the fiasco will have
on Los Angeles ring affairs remains to
be seen, though the affair stands in
the ugliest sort of a light.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-05-10

meeting they have been hankering to
get at each other, and now that the
time has come the two fighters are
tickled to death.
That last fight is still a subject for
discussion wherever things of the ring
are talked about. While Kelly apparent
ly had the shade on Sullivan all the way
through a draw decision was rendered,
which was not at all pleasing to the
son of Italy who sports the Irish name.
Since then Kelly has been camping
on Twins trail. and as soon as the
match was made he went into hard,
systematic training. Sullivan followed
suit, and the men are ready for the

fright then and there I became un-
easy, because 1 had thought that the
affair was to be absolutely on the
square. 1 begged McCarey to call the
thing off if necessary rather than run
the risk OF trouble. 1 saw in a minute
where L would come out on the deal
with every one in the country against
me.
II discovered before that there was
really no good understanding about the
money and 1 wanted new articles tt

To Pay Blot Expenses.

The adjutant generals department
will ask the state legislature for a
deficiency appropriation of $4,000 for
the purpose of paying the expense OF
calling out the state troops on occa-
sion Of the riots last fail in Atlanta
and Macon. 1t is stated this will just
about cover the expense of calling out
the troops on those occasions.
The adjutant general department
feels that it should not be called on
to pay this unusual and unexpected
expense from the military fund, which.
as it is, is scarcely sufficient for main
tenance and equipment.
The state militia has received $780,
900 year from the state for the last
two years. 1t is not definitely known
yet just what amount will be asked
for this year. 1t is thought, however,
that this amount will be necessary for
at least two more years in order to
comply with all the requirements Of
the United States government as Sc.
