MORAN AND MURPHY
NOW IN SPOTLIGHT
Winner of TOnight'S Battle
Candidate to Meet Adj
WOIgaSt.

San Francisco Feb. 27.-The twenty
round fight between Owen Moran OF En-
gland, and Harlem Tommy Murphy of
New York, which Promoter James W.
COffroth has staged for Dreamland rink
in this city tomorrow night, has excited
great deal Of interest among sporting
men and fight followers here. The win
ner of this match is looked upon as the
logical candidate to meet Ad WOlgdst, the
new winner of the lightweight crown.
Moran has been seen on the coast In
several bouts and his work Is well thought
of. He is a slight favOTite in the betting
now, though until yesterday even money
was WageTed on the outcome of the con-
test Murphy is a newcomer on the
coast but his eastern record in short
fights has forced recognition for him.
Both these crack lfghtweights held
newspaper decisions over Wolgast, in
short affairs, and each is COnfidaut he
can beat the champion in a COrty-five-
round fight. They are equally confident
that they can whip each other.
The chances Of a fight soon between
| Cyclone johnny Thompson and Bat
Ting Nelson appear to be glimmering, and
| this fact has aided in throwing he spot
light upon the boys who will meet toInor-
row night. Each one thinks the ether
Is his obstacle in the path to the ring
with WOlgast.

JEFFR.ES WILL AID JOHNSON
IN e. UDENG BARS UNTIL fight

And now out of the west comes this
information: That Jim JeffTies not only
does not wish to have Johnson sent
away" but rather than have the people
imagine such a thing he will turn in,
devote all his energy and influence to saw
ing Mistah JOhnsing from the latticed
windows and 90 the very limit in order
to fend off the negroes punishment till
the fight is over
Senator T. D. Sullivan is the stakeholder
Of the big event. Within the next two
or three days associates Of Jeffries, men
who get their orders straight from the
big fellow. will talk with Senator Sullivan
and Will lay the case frankly before him.
He will be asked TO help engage the best
attorneys and do all that he can to pre-
vent the possible condemnation Of Jack
Johnson. If the whole matter can be
shelved till after the fight IS over, then
Jim Jeffries will fret no more. The boiler
maker has no desire to cheat Justice OF
her dues. If Jack Johnson deserves to
be sent up the river, Jim is quite willing
that he should be sent-if they will only
postpone the voyage till the 4th is over.

New York, Feb. Eff reports coming
from the west are cOrrect-and the tip
seems to be absolutely on the level-big
Jim Jeffries has determined to show him
self the most Chivalric and magnanimOus
of fighters, and, incidentally, to show all
doubters that hts heart is really and hon

fest on the 4th of next July.
When Jack Johnson got into trouble
the other day by playfully beating up a
small and inOffensive African there was
much talk about the way the case was
being handled, and about the bearing
which the affair might have upon the
championship battle. Not a few of the
skeptical went So far as to assert that
every effort would be made to railroad
Mistah Johnsing up the river. If the big
colored man could be tucked away IN the
stone jug it would not only give the best
possible excuse for not putting Jetfrles
against the black warrior, but would also
give good and plausible reason for the
whole sporting world passing Johnson up
as a criminal and a disgrace 10 the box
