Big FIGHT MAY BE BE
PULLED OFF AT zion

A press dispatch from New York
yesterday says that the battle between
jim Jeffries and Jack johnson may
vet be held in Salt Lake City. Just
before the two fighters sat down to
sign up final articles for the contest in
Hoboken yesterday Tex Riekard, the
successful bidder for the championship
fight, was handed two kilograms which
he said came from prominent citizens
of Salt Lake City.
Rickard announced to the fighters
that the messages requested him to dis
regard the published statements of the
governor of Utah and the district at
torney of Salt Lake City that they
would not permit fight in that state.
"T cannot give the names of the
men who sent me the telegrams,' said
Mr.. Rickard, "but l am assured that
the fight can be held in Utah and If
that is the case l think the Jefries-
Johnson contest will be held in Salt
Lake City,
Rickard told the fighters that many
we'll known business men in Salt Lake
City had guaranteed to him no fnan-
cial loss would be sustained by having
the contest held in their city
Mr.. Rickard said that Jimmie Cof-
froth is not in any way interested in
the fight but that if it were held IN
California it probably would be in his
Colma arena, which would be enlarged
from it's present seating capacity OF
$500 to hold 10000 persons.
Rickard, Gleason, Jack Johnson and
George Little, Sam Berger, represent
ing Jeffries, the stakeholder and others
interested went to Hoboken, N. j..
to sign final agreements and pos
sibly select a referee.
Riekard said he would insist on a
cash deposit of $4,000 by each of the
fighters to guarantee their appearance
at the arena.

Yesterday afternoon both sides rest
ed, and arguments were at once com
meneed, which were concluded at 1890
this noon. The jurymen were at once
taken to dinner, returning at 1870.
From the fact that an agreement was
reached in trifle over an hour would
indicate that there was but little diff
ference of opinion.
1t is generally conceded that the YER
dict is substantial victory for Bon
nifeld & Brandon, defendant IS coun-
sci, as from the evidence it was
thought that the jury would fix the
punishment at DEATH On the trial the
fact was brought ou that after Thomas
New had been mortally wounded and
was lying on the floor suffering the
agonies of death, defendant fred an
other shot into his body. 1t was i'm
agined that this act would result in
his being hanged. Formal sentence
