Gilmore Will Pull Down
Forfeit for Mcfarland
Nelson Match Today.
PAckIE ASKS EARLY DATE
Battler Refuses to Agree and Says
He Will Knock Out Opponent
September 8.

"Packie Mcfarland will get his Sept.
9. He will go out somewhere between
the seventeenth and the twenty second
round"
This was the prediction made by Bat
Ting Nelson. who held a long confer
ence with Manager Harry Gilmore Jr.
yesterday, without any definite results
being reached. As a result Gilmore will
pull down his forfeit today and the
bout may be called off
The Battler was steadfast in his de-
termination to postpone the bout with
Mcfarland and no decision was arrived
at relative to moving the date forward.
Mcfarland has been talking too
much about my affairs said Nelson, If
he wants to have trouble he can have
it He will have to wait until the Sep
TENDER date now
This was the state in which condi-
lions stood when the interview termi-
mated Gilmore made some remarks
about Nelson canceling his agreement.
You signed up for July 5 and we
have your articles" he said. Why
don't you stick to them? Jimmy Cot
froth SAYS he will see that you keep
to the terms of the contract"
IF Coffroth is going to see to il
what's the use of bothering me?" asked
Nelson. Il tell you that Packie will ge;
what's coming to him Sept and not
before"
| Gilmore said last night that while he
wanted the earlier date, he had no al
tentative IN case Nelson insisted or

always ready to box Nelson, the mattel
is off, so far as we are concerned. IN

helpless in the present case. Nelson
has no forfeit up. We stand ready t
put up ours again at any time, as sooI
