Most Of Jim Jeffries' future training

Berger said that Jeffries has often
complained of the diEtracting influence
exerted by outsiders, and that their
gratuitous advice and comment annoy

BE ATTELL, champion feather
IA weight, a all the better of his
ten round bou last night with
Tommy Murphy before the Empire A.
c. In the first seven rounds Attell
~outpeinted Murphy clearly, but In the
eighth Murphy came back strongly.
The ninth also was Murphy's. Attell
retaliated in the ina round and pound
ed his antagonist all around the ring.
Attell was Handicapped by a bad
right hand. 1t was an AttelI victory
because the featherweight champion
landed the cleaner blows and the great
er number, but for real rough-and-tum-
bic work Tommy had Abe beaten a
dozen ways from the jack.
They agreed to break by the order of
the referee, but with his friend Jim
Buckley in the ring Tommy thought he
would take a few liberties and he
cheated some at that. There was
hardly a round passed that Referee
Buckley did not caution Murphy for
rough work and holding and when the
eighth round came along both men We're
told to go out and box and stop hold
ing.
Murphy started the first, ninth and
lSIlLu IOul0S Mtth WIN Wiiu Tu6IeS,
but he soon faded away before the
phantom Hebrew. who coolly waited
until Tommy had shot his bolt and
then with a succession of jolts. hooks,
jabs and uppercuts, fairly tool Murphy
off his feet.
After the bout Attell displayed a
badly swollen right thumb, caused from
an injury received while boxing in the
gymnasium. Abe said he eliminated
boxing from his work three days ago to
have the bad thumb in good shape for
last nights battle. The lower joint in
the thumb was swollen to twice it's
normal size after the bou last night.
Not a few around the ringside mem
toned the fact that Attell failed to
use his right hand to any great extent
during the scrap, but the bad hand told
the story, and Abe was believed for
once.
The Hebrew put up a good article OF
hit-and-get-away under the conditions.
He was giving away much weight to a
fast boy, who has held his own with the
best men in the country, and with the
bad hand to boot, Attell had to fight
his best and use every trick and bit of
ring knowledge to hold the former
Harlemite off. Murphy made rallies at
times, fighting Attell off his feet, es-
pecially in the ninth round, hen he
few at Abe just after the bell, getting
him of balance. Attell fell to the
floor, but was up and at it, stif1y jab-
bling Murphy on the sore nose to let
him know that he was still on the job.

Biz Mackey, in Baltimore, tonight.
Patsy Kline left Newark early to-
day. His boxing this week with Bat
Ting Nelson, who is showing at Wald-
mann's, has put him in nice shape.
Patsy has been matched to meet Mackey
three times. The first time it was the
Cleveland boys sickness that pre-
vented, and then it was Patsy's Illness.
Mackey is taking the place of Willie
Jones tonight at the Eureka A. c. It's
hard to figure where Patsy can lose
with Mackey. Patsy ought to beat him,
and that easily. The Newark boy will
return tomorrow in time to box with
Nelson at Waldnann's. Patsy should
be lighting at least once a month now,
getting the money while he is good.
