Coffrofh Laying for
Nelson and Cans
Promoter and Rival Manager,
Have a Talk Over Proposed
Big Match

Promoter jim CoffrOth is still on the
Job, endeavoring TO lay his lines for
the Cans Nelson encounter, which he
1ondly hopes to be able TO stage at his
Mission street arena on the national
holiday. July 4. The promoter took
another preliminary move last night
when he cornered Benny Selig and
Willis Britt, the rival managers, in q
back room and hooked them up in a
Wordy battle which lasted several
hours, but brought no definite results.
However. when the meeting came to
an end all parties concerned wore sat-
isfed expressions and il viii not be at
AL surprising if important develop
ments are announced within the next
couple Of days. The promoter and the
managers are satisfied 10 keep their
ewn counsel for the present, but from
the manner in which they are playing
the game IT would appear that the
foundations for the great battle have
already been well laid.
Conroth realizes better than anybody
else that Nelson and Cans viii draw
the largest house that san Francisco
has known since the recent disaster.
They are the two men whom the fight
fans from all parts Of the country are
willing 10 come here 10 see in action.
Their one unsatisfactory meeting at
Goldfeid nearly two years ago has
done more than anything else 70 stirn-
ulste public interest. Both men real
ize that the meeting viii have TO come
some time and they also know that
now is about as good q time as any.
Cans is evidently tired Of the local
fight trust. The Unholz affair, in which
he was the star but received the small
end of the purse. disguised the old
master. IL is therefore no wonder that
he demands a guarantee OF Sam Berger
before he agrees 10 step into the ring
with Abe Attell next month. Joe prob
ably realizes that this fight will not
draw any more than, IL as much as
the Unholz encounter did. He wants a
big purse this time and Nelson is the
only man around these parts who VIII
draw il with him.
Sam Berger does not seem to know
just what sort OF q move he is going
10 make yet. Last night the Cans
Attel match was still up in the air as
far as he was concerned. He states
that he still has Abe's $500 forfeit
and that the little fellow is now plead

didate the convention adjourned until
10 o'clock this morning, when the
nomination for vice president will be
made.
Early in the day the battle over the
platform had occupied the close at
tention of delegates and spectators.
The platform as framed by the CON-
mittee on resolutions was read by its
chairman, Senator Hopkins of Illinois,
while the minority report, rejecting
the views of the supporters Of Sena-
tor La Toilette, was presented by
Congressman Cooper of Wisconsin.
The platform was adopted by an over
whelming vote, after many separate
planks in the Wisconsin plan had
been buried under adverse votes.
PIanks Of the Platform.
The following are the more impor-
tant features of the platform:

here as a pillar Of strength in the
Sherman movement. The widespread
affection for the old warhorse of the
party was shown by the crowds Of
delegates surging about him to grasp
his hand and bid him welcome.
The preliminaries were brief, and
at 1890 the nominating speeches for
vice president began with a limit of
ten minutes to each speaker. On the
call of states Delaware yielded to New
York and Former Lieutenant Govern
or Timothy L. Woodruff of New York
mounted the platform for glowing
speech placing in nomination Sher.

had died away, like cyclone from a
clear sky burst La Toilette demon
stration which swept the convention
from its very bearings. 1t was the
same deafening wave of sound that
had greeted Roosevelt Wednesday
and Taft little while before, intense
and maddening and with the vital ring
of genuine enthusiasm. It seemed as
though Wisconsin had suddenly peo-
pied every foot Of the galleries. The
delegates sat calm and waiting ex-
cept the frantic Wisconsins, but the
convention for the time being was in
the possession of the galleries.
Another One for Roosevelt.
Now a singular transformation &C.
curred-gradually the whirlwind veer-
ed from La Toilette to Roosevelt. A
banner bearing the Roosevelt portrait
and waved from the gallery was the
signal for the change, but in the con-
fused babel of voices there was no
distinguishing where the La Toilette
cheers ended and those for Roosevelt
began.

the galleries in full control, Chairman
