JEFFRIES' BIG JOB.
James j. Corbett Says He'll Sign Soon
to Fight johnson.


to Fight johnson.
New York, Oct. 19.-As soon as James
J. Jeffries arrives here from Europe on
Thursday or Friday he will be pre-
pared to Immediately sign final articles
for a fight with Jack johnson, accord
ing to James J. Corbett who had a
three hour interview with the former
champion just before he sailed from
England and who is quoted in a cable
message received here as saying:
Jeffries will certainly fight johnson.
The public may have believed that he
was bluffing, but it was due to JEFF
fries honest desire to see whether or
not he could fit himself for the ring He
is fit now and will fight. I was sur
prised at his appearance. I haven't
seen him in such good condition for
years"
The defeat of Stanley Ketchel by
Johnson was g. surprise to eastern
sporting men in that the negro cham
pion displayed such remarkable skill,
strength and agility. While it was
hardly expected here that Ketchel
would defeat Johnson it was expected
the result would be different. Sporting
authorities now agree that johnson has
been underestimate, rather than that
Ketchel was overestimated and that
Jeffries has a much more difficult prob
lem with which to contend than was
know before the Ketchel fight The
consensus of opinion here is that JEFF
fries vulnerable point will be his wind
which 1t is feared has not improved
through five years Of idleness.

CORBETr CAN'T SEE JOHNSON.
Former Champion Says Jeffries viii
Regain the Belt.

London, Oct 19.-Before sailing for
New York on the Lusitania, James J.
Jeffries had three-hour conference
with James ]. Corbett concerning his
expected fight with Jack Johnson.
Speaking of the Johnson-Ketchel
meeting, Corbett said today:
''Johnson's defeat of Ketchel should
not be given too much significance. 1t
is merely case Of a little man going
down before a big fellow and was to
be expected. While johnson is not a
dub, he is by no means a great
fighter. Nothing he has done justifies
the belief that he is in the star class.
He has appeared at a time when there
has been remarkably poor lot of
heavyweights.
will Jeffries fight him? 1t is as
Jeffries's attitude may have made
many persons believe him to be
bluffing or sidestepping. this attitude
was due only to Jeffries's honest de-
sire to see whether he would be able
to get himself into a satisfactory con-
dition- e is now in a satisfactory
condition and will fight; in fact. JEFF
fries is ready to fight at any mo-
ment. He surprised me by looking so
well. He's in better condition than 1
have seen him for years.
THE American public may take my
tip. He will easily wrest the heavy
weight championship from the Texas
brunette. AS a matter of fact,
JSA1AASSJ III my QOSS not nGSO
to be in first class condition to whip
johnson, because Johnson is not and
never was in the same class with
Jeffries. johnson is only able to fight
defensively. His only blow is a coun-
ter. Burns, Ketchel and others have
always fought Johnson's fists for him.
"Jeffries won't do anything of the
kind and Johnson will find his upper
cut unavailing against the Californian,
while If JeffrieS ever lands on John
son, which he will, it will be good
by, Mister Black Champion"

TELLS HOW HE DID 1T.
s.Babe'' Adams Found Tigers Couldn't
Hit Slow Drop.

Pittsburg, Pa, Oct. 19.-"Will you tel
lust how you won the championship
was asked of Babe Adams. the P1rate
pitcher to whom the Pittsburg baseball
team owes the worlds championship
How 1 won it," exclaimed Adams
IT can't do that, for no such credit Is
coming to me. 1t required the cAtAle
team to win"
well. your part in it." was desig-
mated.
THAT'S different" said the modest
Adams. THE games we won when
was on the mound go to the credit OF
everyone who played for Pittsburg. The
Tigers were not to be beaten by any
one man, whether he was pitcher OF
played any other position
tributed to the slow drop ball. L dis
covered in the first game that Detroit
could not hit this kind of ball to any
extent. When they would connect, Il
would be a rap to the infield, and Pitts
burg has an infield which can take care
Of such hits.
1.-THE slow drop alternated, first out
and then in. 1t went to the outside OF
but. if he was within hitting distance.
the ball was low and its slowness
caused a false estimate of the strength
required from the batter.
I'm such a quick feat as Dattlng, a
false estimate is a dangerous thing for
the batting side. The ball which went
inside the plate and dropped at the
same time was the most effective l
used Detroit could do nothing with
that at all.
But did not overworlk the drop ball.
To do so would have been to lose con-
troll. Gibson sized UP the batters, and
he knew when it was safe to put them
straight over the plate.
Detroit has a good batting aggreGa-
ton, and it was necessary to take eV cry
precaution. The Tiger rallies in several
games demonstrated this. To lose con-
troll during one of these rallies would
most trying times while was pitching
were when Detroit showed one of tn 'se
famous spurts of strength at bat.
1T worked harder then than ever,
and was fortunate enough to regain
control.
1.-THE balls that went straight over
the plate were pretty generally hit by
Detroit. Occasionally one was walloped
to good effect, but in the main. we
knew when there was to be hit and
ingly.
'EIn Saturdays game I was pleased
when 1 found that had control Of the
ball. as 1 was confident the team would
do the rest. And it did. Leach, Carlck
and Wagner made plays that checked
the Tigers every time they became dam
gcrous.
Every time went to the bench the
whole crew mad some word of good
cheer for me- and 1 appreciated the
good feeling which they displayed
when I saw Wagner go all the way
around on his hit to left 1 knew De-
troit had no chance to win, but our fell
lows kept On hustling to the end. They
remembered the Tigers sensational rail-
lies in previous games and would take
no chances"
On the way over from Detroit two
handsome purses were made up on the
train for Adams, one by his teammates
and another by the fans.

The town has some rickety business

for this reason Hill City is entitled to
a good system of waterworks. The pro
