TO GET BIG BATTLE

CHICAGO. May 21.-Jack Curley. who
has offered Burns and Johnson a purse of
So. 600 to settle the heavyweight cham
pionship, gave out the following statement
last night:
1T is bit too early to go into all the
details of the match. and l am sorry that
anything was printed about it before ii
was clinched beyond a chance Of failure.
l have communicated with Burns and
have received his acceptance, and am now
negotiating with Johnson.
From all that I can see now. there is
little or no chance for the match to fall
through. though. Of course. you never can
tell what will happen. l am not prepared
to state the exact location nor the men
associated with me in this venture. 1t is
sufficient that I am prepared to post a
forfeit of s15.inN with Otto Floto of Den
yer to guarantee Burns and johnson that
the club will carry out its part of the pro-
gram.
THAT ought to be sufficient guarantee
that We are prepared to go through with
the match. There re several reasons
purely business ones-which make It
necessary to withhold the name Of the
city in which the contest will take place,
though / am free to admit that Goldfield
New. is the most likely spot
Burns accepted the offer with the pro-
viso that he get $4,000 as his share of
the purse and that James ]. Jeffries act

but he's no fool. He knew that he per-
sonally was responsible for the extraor-
binary increase in the attendance over
Monday. and he wanted to go about town
and give the natives treat by permitting
them to gaze upon him. To be broke in
big town is just what Old Tecumseh
said about war-simply HI. SO. In order
to deport himself in manner becoming
his achievement in the afternoon and
to hold up his end while circulating
around the bird stores. the Reuben must
necessarily have some cash. Accordingly,
he approached Manager McAleer:
Jimmy. your little Reuben would have
fifty bucks so that he may seek su-cease
from sorrow and dull care this eve
Nay, nay, Reuben; fifty bucks consti-
tute too vast a sum for one SO young and
inexperienced as you to have on your per-
son after nightfall in this large and wick
ed CITY," said Mcfleer. But If you
promise to be in by II l will stake you to
two-sDot. You won't be able to buy
many automobile rides with that. to be
sure, but it will go long ways on a
trolley car
Time was when the RUDE might have
compromised on that two-spot. but Tues
day night was not the time. He dis
charged the st. Louis club there ana
then. Turning his key over to the clerk,
he picked up his belongings. including the
gun, and quit the hotel. He put in yes
terday afternoon with some friends on
Girard avenue. and last night he went
own declarations he will pitch for indie
he will work at Burlington tomorrow and
at Egg Harbor Sunday.
In view of his victory over the Athletics
every one who knows the RUDE expected
some such break his part. Manager
McAleer expressed the greatest indiffer-
ence over Waddells jump. In fact, he
intimates that he will be glad personally
If he never returns to the team. He has
only been handling him for a couple of
months, but he says he's got enough of
him. He cannot conceive how Manager
Mack ever managed to get along with
him for SO many years.
In all likelihood Rube will pitch a few
games. have few days fishing and then
when the funds begin to roll low he will
