JOHNSON AND
 BURKE TO MEET

l nights battle between Sailor Burke and Jack Johnson will go consid- erable distance toward deciding the next heavyweight champion of the world is the opinion of many metro pOlltan dOpesmiths. Admirers ot both men are insistent in their claims that the logical candidate for the title will be seen in the ring at Bridgeport, Conn.,. tonight Not in many months has New York been so interested in the outcome of ring battle. Johnson is a favorite with the wise boobs, but Burke is not without packers, and many goodly sized bets have been made.
 Burke has been hard at work at Stratford, Conn.,, for several weeks Big Tim Savage, once the sparring partner of Bob Fitzsimmons, has been putting him through the final training stunts. He will enter the ring at 165 pounds, while the big negro will weigh in the neighbor- hood or 1SO. Burke is in fine con- dition and is confident that John sons advantage in weight will be no hindrance to him. His belief in this regard is backed up by some of his supporters, several bets having been made at $250 to $500 that Burke would stay the limit.
 Sailor Burke is only 23 years of age and is a native of Brooklyn. Of the many hard bouts in which he has engaged, he has only lost two. one of these on a foul. His front name is Charles, but his experience as a mariner on the sad sea waves resulted in the sobriquet of Sail or.''
 Some of the men whom Burke has defeated are Terry Martin, Fred Vanuch, Eddie Hanley, Jim McGar- ry, Charles Stiger, Jack Butler, Mickey McDonough, Andy Walsh. Kid Williams, Joe Grim, Tommy Sul- livan, Joe Hagen, Kid Klop, Jim Savage, Peter Maher, Jim Jeffords. Charlie, O'Rourke, i'm Scanlon, Jim my Carol, Nate Jacobs, Andy Will Hams, Cy Flynn, Jack Blackburn, Dave Holly, Johnny Carroll and Jack Robinson.
 If Johnson wins tonight's battle, as his packers confidently expect he will insist that Tommy Burns meet him within the next few months. By knocking out Kid Cut Ter in half a round in his last bat tie, the negro believes that he has shown punching ability worthy of a championship battle. Cutler had been coached by John l.. Sullivan, and had acted as the former cham pion's sparing partner The ease with which the big black landed on Cutler was a surprise, even to his most devoted admirers.

Friction.
WHICH RAISED RuMPUS

New York, April 5s---Ffank w. Hill, q
former employee Of r. II. Hartman who
was arrested yesterday on the imam
cier's complaint that he sold copy Of
the Webster letter which has caused
such a wide discussion with the presi-
dent, was arraigned in the Tombs police
court today. Harriman's attorney
asked for postponement TO enable him
To collect evidence, and the case was
adjourned to Monday at 10 q. m. I'LL
wns released on bail,
The letter in question was addressed
by Mr. Hartman to Sydney Webster
and was first published here by The
World last Tuesday morning State
ments therein contained called forth a
reply from President Roosevelt Tuesday
afternoon. Hill is 81 years Of age and
lives in Brooklyn.
Action against Hill was taken under
the section of the penal code which de-
fines as misdemeanor the act OF "a
person who wilfully and without author
ity either takes a letter, telegram or
private paper belonging to another, or
copy thereof, and publishes the whole
Of any portion thereof"
Assistant District Attorney Paul Kro-
tel has charge of the case, and it was
said that the arrest would, it was be-
lieyed, discourage the publication OF let
ters of another prominent man which
according to report, recently had been
offered for sale.
A copy of the Hartman letter in
which the writer stated that the chief
executive had appealed to him for funds
for the campaign Of 1904, made, it is
alleged, from Hale's stenographic notes
and in his handwriting, was, it was said,
offered for sale to Brooklyn paper and
later to New York paper, both of
which declined to purchase. This par
ticular New York paper subsequently
turned the copy over 10 the district att
torney's office.
Hill was employed in Mr.. Harriman's
office for 81 years. About year ago
he was discharged because, it was said,
of friction with other employees. He left,
however, record of faithful service.
Recently he entered the brokerage office
of De Coppet 6 Doreinus. He has a
wife and two children.
When asked last night whether he
cared to make any explanations ne re-
piled that he was too greatly perplexed
to discuss the matter Neither Mr.. Har-
riman or anyone connected with his
Office would comment upon the arrest.
