GRAHEY IS NAMED AS
REFEREE FOR BATTLE
Richard, Johnson and Little
Agree on Californian as
Third Man in Ring.

New York. Dec. 9.-Tex Ricko left
for Boston last night. Before he eft
he insisted that Salt Lake City had
been selected by all hands and him
self principally for the fight because
he represented the mining and smelt-
ing interests of that particular belt
Richard also said that Eddie Graney,
once a dangerous dark horse in the
matter Of promoting the contest, was
to be judge and jury of the pugilistic
merits of Jim and Jack. Graney still
denies that he will act. But last night
he sat back and laughed when Charlie
Whites name was mentioned as the
likely third man.
George Little. manager for Johnson,
and speaking freely for Richard, said
that White would not be considered for
a moment -Graney's presence he
said that he was for Graney and, most
important, Jack Johnson liked his ref
ereeing technique. Little said that it
was agreed between himself, Johnson
and Richard that Graney was to act.
Graney insists that the fight viii go
to Salt Lake City. Little says that he
knows that it is to take place at
Ocean View, Alameda County, Califor-
MIA, and that he can place his finger
on the spot for substantial bet.
