TO DISTRIBUTE BONUS.

Chicago. H., Jan. 9-President Mur- phy. of the Chicago National League club, today stated that if the National Commission permits. he will distribute a bonus of $10.000 among the world championship team on the day that the league pennant is raised at the West Side grounds-
 The only thing standing in the way of this plan is Rule IT. of the articles gov erning the worlds championship games which prohibits the giving of bonuses, either before or after a series, to the players of team which may partiei. pate in such series.
 T intended to give the men the money at a time when I thought we could not win the National League flag" said MT. Murphy today.
 "They worked hard enough to de- serve 1t. The fact that they won out should not cut them off from that re- ward. President Brush. of Nashville. gave his player who won $1O00O and the fact that we won, should not be a bar to a similar recognition of our men"

CORBETT Is THE MAN
FORMER CHAMPION WOULD HAVE
 GOOD CHANGE WITH JOHNSON.
The Boxing Game Would Gain Nothing Skculd Jeffrses CsEsse Out of HIS Retirement As Title Would
 Be In Dispute.

Late dispatches from the West would indicate that James J. Jeffries. the re- tired worlds champion, is not so firm now in his determination to re-enter the prize ring. It is reported that the big champion is wavering and that the sight of that s5o.ooO has set his mouth to watering.
 Jer's wife does not want to see him light again. but the Western rumor says that she. too, is looking longingly at the extraordinary inducements. which are being offered her husband to go in and wrest the title from the black man.
 Sporting men as a whole, would not like to see Jeffries back in the ring. If he should change his mind and train tor the fight with the negro, 1t would be with the understanding that it would be his last and only fight for the cham pionship. He would retire again and then the question of championship would still be in dispute Many or the friends of the boxing game would rath- CT see Jeffries stay in retirement and rel wreath from the negro.
 Corbett in Earnest.
 Jim Corbett is being given credit for being sincere in his determination to secure fight with the new champion. Corbett barring Ieffries. would prob z ably have as good chance against Johnson as any of them. He has not been out of the ring but very few y meeting with Jeffries. in 1908, Corbett was able to stand up for ten rounds, before JeReries. who was then at the heighth of his power. Since then Cor bett has been working hard and his friends assert that he could wrest the title from Johnson.
 Corbett is not only anxious to share In a fair sized purse which he knows will be offered for the next worlds championship battle. but he says that he wants to make it impossible for an- other negro to ever be given . chance to light for the championship Peter Jackson, Q negro, regarded by many as the best fighter of his day, never had an opportunity to fight for the title. and Corbett wants to see the title snatched from Johnson and the color line drawn tightly in the future by all champions.
 Corbett is also pretty wise. He figures that if he should happen to de- feat Johnson that he would be in a position to again defenc the title for a battle or two and these battles would give him a chance to lay in many dol- lars. Corbett Is said to have settled down considerably in recent years and now knows something of the value of the dollar. The, sports throughout the country are hoping that the conqueror of Jon L., Sullivan will be able to do battle with Johnson for the title and that Jeffries will stick to his saloon and permanent fetirement
