there upon the same plans permitted
under the Percy-Gray law, with some
desirable improvements upon that law.
Ryan and Belmont quarreled, and Bry-
an promised Belmont that his revenge
would be the death of racing in New
York. He made good despite the
money and influence Of Belmont and
others nearly as wealthy and more in
fluential in the Empire state politics.
1t was a browning triumph for Ryan,
and now that he is going to get into
the game it looks like there is a bright
prospect ahead for the sport in New
York as soon as the legislature can
pass new laws.
Battling Johnson, the big Russian
whose unsuccessful attempts to get at
the top of the heavyweight heap have
been features of many local boxing
shows, is matched to go twenty rounds
tonight with Ralph Galloway, a negro
giant, at San Diego. Both are train
ing in the same ring at the San Diego
club, but at different hours, and the
southern fans are much wrought up
over the important event. "Deke' Lee
Brandt, the Omaha catcher, and a San
Diego scrapper are to furnish the pre-
liminary at six rounds. Owing to the
late hour at which notice of the i'm
portant event arrived, no special train
will carry local fans to the ringside.
Jimmy Jackson expects to cut in
Wednesday with a big store, as his
partner, John Norris is due to ar
rive from San Antonio today. Mean
time Jimmy is sharpshooting 'em from
the ground with excellent success, and
his bank roll is growing like a bay
tree. Bill Kinney, expert sheetwriter,
who always works with Jackson and
Morris, has arrived and is waiting for
the store to open for biz
Sig. Beutler. Johnny Mcfarland and
Charlie Smith rounded up a fellow
Saturday who had passed a raised bill
on wienerwurSt man at Santa Anita
week previously, and sent him over
to the Arcadia dungeon. He had not
been at the track for a week, yet the
alert detective and police forces at the
track took him in just as soon as he
showed his face inside the grounds,
and had him identified by his victim
and in jail in less than ten minutes
after he was discovered.
Lord Fauntelroy deserves much
praise for his unceasing efforts in pro-
noting the boxing show that is to be
staged as a benefit performance for
the italian earthquake sufferers. He
is arranging most interesting caro-,
which includes a battle royal and prob
ably will include a match between
Freddie Welsh and Billy Rose, who had
rough house argument at Venice a
few days ago. The battle royal, be-
tween husky negroes, should be suf-
ficient attraction to make the affair a
success. but it will be only one of. many
good cards. Several high class boxing
bouts, wrestling bout and a few novel
Eos thrown n
makes the entertainment one of value
received to those who attend, which is
rather out of the ordinary when tes-
timonial affair is being arranged.
While the object to be attained is to
raise a large sum of money to be
added to the Los Angeles contribution
to aid in supplying the wants and
necessities of the suffering Italians, the
lord proposes to furnish a show that
will be worth more than the price that
will be charged for tickets.
Within a few days the Santa Anita
