of 5000, which will take place this after
noon at Colma. The fight Is one OF the most
important events in pugilistic circles since
James J. Jefrries, the undefeated heavy
weight champion. abdicated, and has
aroused international interest. What adds
interest to the fight is the appearance in
the arena Of Jeffries As referee, and his
declaration last night that he will re-enter
the ring and fight the Australian II SQuires

The large open-air arena, having a seat
ing capacity of over 5000. has been COM
pleted, and everything is in readiness for
the men to enter the ring at 2 o'clock this

vance sale is in the neighborhood of $12. coo.
Promoter James Coffroth gave out a state
ment last night to the effect that he ex-
pected a $4,000 house. This Is based on
the expectation that 1000 people will at

been in sight number of bets were reg

was made that when the men entered the

at even. This. however, is believed to be
somewhat overdrawn, and the antipodean
