Jack johnson, the negro pugilist, who
won the heavyweight championship by de-
feating Tommy Burns in Australia, will
meet Jim JeGfries, the former champion,
who retired undefeated several years ago
because there was no one else to give him
a real battle, at 3 o'clock to-day. and the
two will arrange for a peaceful settlement
of their conflicting claims to the title III
the squared circle. Each spent most of the
time yesterday speaking in loftily con-
temptuous fashion about the other, and
each sought to give the impression that ne
was fairly spelling for fight.
Can l beat him?" said Jeffries, pauslng
a moment in his thoughtful punching of a
defenceless bag in the gymnasium where
he was continuing his training work; well,
if / can't. why 1 don't ever want another
show-that's all Some one told ME that
John L. Sullivan had said Johnson could
beat me- Some one interrupted here
TO say that Sullivan had also been quoted
as saying that Jeffries would win. We'll,
that's more like it," said the fighter; that
sounds better
Johnson arrived from Chicago early yes
terday morning at the Grand Central sta
ton, and was uproariously welcomed by a
big crowd of enthusiasts, who pressed for
ward in an attempt TO see the champion.
He was accompanied by George Little his
manager and the pair went at once TO the
hotel where Jeffries has been staying.
Jeffries and Berger were out, it appeared.
Jeffries having gone to his gymnasium for
his regular morning exercise. This annoyed
Little a good deal and he said he thought
IT strange that Jeffries should not have
waited for them, as he must have known
that they were due. Berger turned up
later, however, and arrangements were at
once made for the meeting to-day. Little
wanted the men TO get together at once
but to this Jeffries objected.
Little said he and Johnson had canceHeo
five weeks of theatrical engagements to
come here and arrange for the meeting
with Jeffries. He seemed confident OF
Johnson's ability TO win. and said he would
bet largely on the outcome of fight AS
TO the s., 900 which put up some time ago
that johnson would fight, l am willing to
bet that at even money that Johnson
wins" he said, ''und. further, l will wager

ON THE GRIDlRON
EAST TO MEET WEST.
Coy a Human Batterng Ram
an Yale Scrimmdge.

Syracuse, with Tad" Jones in charge,
goes out to Ann Arbor tomorrow to meet
Yost's Michigan eleven, the teams thus fur
nishing the first intersectional clash OF the
season. Syracuse gave the Wolverines Il
terrible drubbing last year, but that Syra-
cuse team. on paper at least, was better
than the one this year, and the struggle
may be closer. The West has still to win
an intersecti onal game of importance from
an Eastern eleven, and Tad" Jones will be
a disappointed man if the record is broken
this year.
Both teams play fast football, and both
are coached particularly In the new style
of play. Michigan is an unknown quantity
this season, having played no teams or
proved ability. but the eleven was hard
pressed to beat Marquette on Saturday by
d score of to ). The record made by SYRIA
cuse is not impressive. The team was
beaten here by the Indians. and failed at
that time to create much enthusiasm
among the experts. But II was said then
that there was good material on the squad,
and Yost and his team may find the Orange
players a difficult proposition.
The game will give a good line, in any
case, on what Pennsylvania may look for
on November 13. and will either add to or
detract from interest In that contest.
Bill Edwards Will not act as umpire in
the game on November 13 between Penn
sylania and Michigan. as it conflicts with
the Yale-Princeton game. as it I'D last
year, and he refuses to desert again. He
will be on the side lines watching the bat
tie when the Tiger and the Bulldog get to-
gether at New Haven, ana says he feels
that he owes the team that much, at least,
Ye of thn
advisory board. Moreover, he expects to
run down to Princeton next week and help
the coaches with the line men.
Others seem to have decided that The
Tribune was right on Monday in saying
that the Princeton backs were being Iayed
too close to the line, for a change was
made on Tuesday, and 1t seemed to bring
results yesterday. To the observer last
Saturday 1t seemed that half the trouble,
at least. with the Princeton attack was
due to this fault Princeton is sticking
this year to the short forward pass, per-
fectly worked there when Wister was out
to receive the toss, and it may be that, even
in this day of the we'll developed long PASS.
the Princeton method will be the more
valuable Certainly the Yale defence seems
proof against the long shot down the rcld,
for if the attacking players have time to
get ready to receive the ball the defenders
also have time to diagnose the play and
put the men who could make the catch
out of the way, as Yale did at West Point.
The quick short pass means speed and ac-
curate work by the end, but is a more
sudden and more deadly form of the play
if it is thoroughly worked out. Bergin
gave promise on Saturday of being a good
man to make the pass. and Ballin I'D well
at the other end.

Philadelphia oct. $-The University of
Pennsylvania football team and it's sub
stitutes were taken to Winslow junction.
n. j., this afternoon to remain until SAT
urday morning. The purpose of the coaches
in arranging this trip was to give the play
ers a change of air and scene in the hope
that 1t would put more snap into them for
the annual game with the Carlisle Indians
on Saturday,
AS soon as the players reached WinsIow
Junction this afternoon they were sent
through a brief signal drill. in which all
the new plays were tried. Smith an
nounced before leaving that there would
be no more scrimmaging before the Ind
ians are met. The team will have a short
signal drill o-morrow, and then take
walk through the pines. The men will re-
turn to the city on Saturday morning.

West Point. n. Y, Oct. 2S.-The cold snap
seemed to put more life into the Army
football team to-day. The stiff defence OF
the scrub was unable to Withstand the
'varsity's fierce attack, and in less than
minute after the scrimmage began Wa.rs-
ley scored touchdown. Most OF the time
to-day was given to practising the forward
pass and the scrimmage lasted only a few
minutes. Brown was taken from the scrub
and reinstated In his old place at left half
back. and Wood also came back to left end
on the varsity.

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY.

With only three days OF practice remain
ing before the Wesleyan game on Tuesday,
the New York University eleven lined uD
against De Witt Clinton High School yester-
day In a sharp scrimmage. In spite of the
hard practice with Fordham on Wednesday,
the school team could not pierce the line.
Nixon. Stanley, Moore and Yule made up
the back field. They showed great line
breaking ability. EIliffe. New York's star
right halfback, was not in the scrimnage,
as he is suffering from a bad ankle.
Davis. a substitute tackle, who was in the
line part of the time. showed marked abil-
ity IN following the forward pass. Olcott
is trying new long forward pass from left
end. which was not as successful as the
short pass operated so successfully in the
Stevens game on Saturday.
The High School Of Commerce team will
meet the varsity in a scrimmage this after
noon.
