SENATOR GUS HARTMAN
HAS REAL FIST FIGHT
Author of the Antipugilistic
Bill in an Animated
Mixup

Senator Gus Hartman. who came into
public notice during the last session
of the legislature as the author of the
anti prize fight bill. has evidently re-
versed his views on matters pugilistic.
for he entered the lists himself last
night as a candidate for heavy weight
honors. 1t happened in Golden Gate
avenue. There were no seconds no
rounds and no referee, but there was
as fine and fast an exhibition as one
cares TO see on a Monday night, and
when 1t was all over both Hartman
and ]. Millen, his adversary, We're
clamoring for the purse
Hartman had dropped into a Golden
Gate avenue cafe and was chatting
lightly of how he scared the sports
with his bill in the legislature, when
Millen, who is a real estate dealer,
dropped in and Joined in the converse
tion. Hartman asked Millen TO have
one, and then Millen asked Hartman
to have another. All went merrily until
the conversation switched TO the racing
game.
Hartman said something about John
ME Crowley, the racing man which
Millen didn't like. Hartman doesn't re-
member what he said. but bystanders
say it wasn't nice. At any rate Hart
man and Millen forgot all about the
peace conference at The Hague and
went to il.
Miller led with straight to Hart
mans jaw Hartman countered with a
body blow. Millen rushed the senator
and the two shot through the swinging
doors of the cafe into the street. At
tracted by the noise a crowd collected
and, delirious with joy at the sight of a
real mixup after the disappointments of
the fight trust, encouraged the COM
batants with shouts and cheers.
On the street Millen appeared in bet
ter form than on the other side of the
swinging doors. He forced the fight
ing, driving hard with right and left.
Hartman stayed with the game, send
ing one home occasionally with telling
effect Soon the blood began to flow
and the cheers echoing up and down
the street brought a crowd that would
put a Sunday night Orpheum gathering
to shame.
Millen forced his man to the curb,
swung at his jaw and missed. They
clinched and had just begun a remark
able demonstration OF infghting when
two policemen decided that 1t had gone
far enough.
After the encounter Hartman an
nounced that it was all his, but the
story beat him up the line. He found
some satisfaction. however, In the fact
that he had been outweighed Is pounds.

PRESIDENT WOULD RUN
AGAIN ON CONDITION
Assurance of Carrying One
Southern State All He
Requires
SPECIAL DISPATCH 10 The CALL

ATLANTA, Ca. June 24-.If I
could positively be assured of the cleo
toral vote of a single southern state /
would gladly be a candidate for tile
presidency next year. The foregoing
statement was made by President
roosevelt on Georgia day at the
jamestown exposition, according to
leading Georgia democrats who were
present The president made his dec
laration, according to reports, TO John
Temple Graves. following the wave OF
good feeling attendant upon the dedi-
cation of the Georgia building. rep
lica of the home OF the presidents
mother at Roswell.
President Roosevelt was carried
away with enthusiasm upon the occa-
sion and Georgians present, among
whom Were many well known persons,
shared this enthusiasm. 1t was a love
feast. Political issues and party lines
were for the time forgotten. Each
man was toasting the other and all
were toasting the president. Soon after
this outbreak of enthusiasm John
Temple Graves went to President
Roosevelt and urged him to run for
the third term. Roosevelt, it is said.
was moved by the plea, but recalled
his promise made to the public follow
ing his election in 1904.
The president is reported 10 have
said that but one thing would cause
him to change his determination n
this respect. He then said that IL he
could be positively assured of the cleo
toral vote of single southern state,
il he could break the solid south, re
would be candidate for third term.
President Roosevelt spoke at length
on the solid south; declared it shouli
be broken and said he would run again
IL he could be assured that Ills candi-
dacy would split the south from its
one way of voting.
According to the report Graves is
said TO have assured Roosevelt that he
could carry Georgia and probably two
or three other southern states, and it is
said that promise was given the pres
ident to attempt to stampede Georgia
for him at the proper time.
Graves has been urging Bryan to
nominate Roosevelt at the democratic
national convention next year.

and 1t was enjoyed by both boxers.
After his workout Britt weighed 135 Z
pounds.
"Parson" Davies was an interested
spectator at Shannon's yesterday and
expressed the opinion that it was sell
dom that three such fighters as Britt,
Joe Thomas and Bill Squires were shell
tered together in training quarters. He
was especially interested in Squires,
whom he saw for the first time.
Squires entered the gymnasium for
the first time in a week. as he had been
enjoying the ocean bathing at Santa
Cruz. The rest had done him a lot of
good and he went at his work with a
vim, showing freshness and vivacity in
every movement. He did a little boxing,
which showed of his powerful style
Burns will settle down in training
quarters at the Reliance club, Oakland,
before the end of the week He will
then put the finishing touches to his
condition for his meeting with Squires
on July 1. His work at Hardin springs
was designed to give him stamina to
go long route If necessary.
Manager Coffroth signed a contract
with Miles Brothers yesterday under
which the latter will take moving pic
lures of the fight.

referee can be selected Is small. Or.
the men who have officiated in the last
five years there is hardly one against
whom one side or the other has not
an objection to lodge.
Eddie Graney's name will not be
presented. for several reasons. He has
announced that he would not act again
and in addition TO this he is not in
favor with those who control the fight
situation. OF the regular referees there
remain Jack Welch, Eddie Smith and
Phil Wand. Whether both managers
can agree upon a man of this trio is
the question. If deadlock develop
it may be difficult to break it, as Britt
will not agree to an eastern referee.
There remains but little time in which
to bring a man from a distance, If both
men could agree upon one. Neither
side has candidate at present, so they
will go into the conference with no
object other than that of selecting the
best available man. There will be
some delicate verbal sparring upon the
part of the principals tonight as It
invariably happens that neither side
wants to show its hand by naming q.
man, preferring to have the pick of
the names presented by the opposing
side.

Nelson devoted all OF his energies 20
road work yesterday, going out in
the morning and again in the after
noon. He finds this gives him the
stamina which stands by him in the
ring and he derives more pleasure from
1t than from his routine work in the
gymnasium He will take up his box
ing work again today and will do a
lot OF it during the remainder of the
week. The question of weight had
given him the most concern when he
commenced training and with this set
tied to his satisfaction his mind is re-
Heved and he is giving all thought to
perfecting his condition
Jimmy Britt has been faithful in his
attention TO training rules, and COM
menced his last full week of work be-
fore the fight with some stiff work
with the gloves. Charlie Reilly, one of
the fastest of the four round boxers.
went five rounds with him in spirited
style 1t was Just what Britt needed,
as the two boxers went at top speed
Reilly has promised to visit the camp
several times this week to repeat the
work of yesterday. Britt also went
three rounds with Joe Thomas. There
was lot of hard hitting in this bout
