FIGHT WILL NOT
Be HELD IN FRISCO
JEFFRlEs-JoHNSoN BOUT is A
PUGlLISTIc ouTCAsT, A
SOCIAL PARlAR.
PROMOTER RICHARD MAY TAKE
MILL TO NEVADA-EVERY-
BODY GUESSING.

San Francisco, June Ito all in
tents and purposes, the Jeffries-John-
son championship battle is a pugil-
istic outcast, a social pariah No
body knows where it is going to be
fought
That it will not be held in San
Francisco or in California is ganer-
ally admitted. Tex Richard, the pro-
moter of the bout, is SO certain of
this that he has declared his inten-
ton of suing Governor Gillett and At
tomey General Webb for alleged dam
ages sustained because of the inter
vention by the state authorities.
While no legal steps have been
taken as yet against any of those
concerned, Promoter Blot, of the
LangfordKaufman fight slated for
Saturday, is in no better case. He
has the published assurances of the
attorney general that that official will
file an application for injunction
against the match today. Blot de-
clared that he cannot see how his 20
round go can be prevented and says
he will hold it as scheduled. but his
voice lacked conviction.
AS to the big fight, the attorney
general said yesterday he would ask
a permanent injunction. He expects
to make the application in a few DAYS.
Richard does not intend to contest.
lie said yesterday he would immedi-
ately transfer the match to some
other state if the court ruled against
him.
Governor Gillett arrived from Sac
ramento yesterday. The fight could
and would be stopped, he declared.
He seemed Indifferent to the opposi-
ton aroused.
The governor came to preside over
the exposition massmeeting. It has
been noised around that the stains
OF the exposition at Washington had
much to do with the mo fight order.
Not a ward concerning the fight was
spoken at the meeting
The only real action of the dav was
That work stopped on the construc-
ton of the arena.
Rlckard is awaiting developments.
II his predictions are good, he will be
able to say what town gets the fight
by today moon The promoters of
nee has been flooded all day with
proposals to stage the big show.
Rena. Tacoma, Juarez, Mexico, ana
several other places have been sug-
gested. Tacoma and Reno sports are
willing to reimburse Richard for his
losses if given the fight. 1t seems
very probable that the battle" viii
take place in Nevada.

Miss Brown does not say whether the
something terrible" will be the &C

mouse in church at prayer meeting.
When the expected failed to hap

Director F. H. Newell, of the reclama-
ton service, was reported to the SEN
ate yesterday
Mr.. Dixon will present a minority
report. He said that western mem
bers of congress had complete con-
fidence in Newell and wanted him re-
tanned at the head of the reclamation
service.
Consideration of the deficiency bill
occupied the house during the entire
day. General debate was concluded
and it was partly read for amend
ments.
Mr.. Humphrey, of Washington,
spoke upon combinations by foreign
steamship lines for the purpose OF
keeping up rates In his speech he
charged that certain foreign lines
were represented here by member
of the staff of the Associated Press.
The associated press later issued a
statement saying the charge that
their employee worked for two steam
ship lines, had been investigated and
it was found that his work was not
of such nature as to interfere with
the integrity of the service or of his
but inasmuch as such employment
might seriously impair his usefulness,
his resignation had been accepted.
Humphrey said that foreign lines
favored in rates the International
Harvester company and Standard Oil
Mr. Poindexter, insurgent, of Wash
ington, introduced a resolution attack

syndicate did not secure lands by
fraud and whether government ofic-
ers were not guilty of participation
in the alleged frauds.
Mr.. Fowler introduced a resolution
requiring the rules committee to re-
port a rule to the house beginning
next session, providing for a commit
tee on committees. 1t was referred
to the rules committee. Mr.. Fowler
said:
THE issue is a simple and naked

OF DEFENSE IN TRIAL OF
LEE o'NEIL BROWNE.
TWO WITNESSES coRRoBoRATE
WHITES sToRY-LINk NEXT

Chicago, June 17.-Fourteen objec-
tons by the defense against the adj
mission of the testimony of Repre-
sentatives Myers, Link and Becke-
meyer in the Lee O'Neil Browne
senatorial bribery trial, were over
ruled by Judge McSurely yesterday
after five hours argument. This is
regarded as a victory for the prose
cution as it permitted the first cor
roborative evidence in support of the
confession" of Representative White,
that he had been paid 81, 1000 for vot-
ing for Senator Lorimer.
Myers was the first witness for the
state. His testimony In effect was
that Browne called him to him on the
day of the election of Mr. Lorimer
and asked for his vote, saying there
were lots Of jobs and plenty of "the
ready for those who voted for Lori
Iner.
H. ]. c. Beckemeyer, of Carlyle,
Illinois, then corroborated White in
every material point He said he had

had been and there was handed d
package by Browne, who remarked:
There is your Lorimer money" He
said he opened the package" and
found $1,000 in $50 bills. The al
legged payment of $1,000 to Becke-
meyer was made June 81, 1909, at
the Southern hotel, ST. Louis, the
same day on which White declared
the money had been distributed.
Bechemeyer said that on that day he
saw Representative Robert E. Wilson,
Joseph S. Clark and Charles Luke of
ST. Louis. Michael S. Link, who
made confession No g." will give his
testimony today.
The defense promised to spring a
bomb in the form of a confession on
its side of the case. Attorney E. c..
Erbstein, counsel for Browne, re-
turned from trip out of town and
declared he had found a witness who
confessed to entering into a plot with
White to obtain money from Browne

the presence of the Baptists, and a
crowd, numbering into the thousands,
set upon the Americans with the
avowed intention of hanging them. 1t

soldiers. as protection against 5000 OIL
more natives VINO lined the streets
yelling, cursing and threatening them.
I1uzzatti expressed the opinion that
the action was due more to their pam

earthquake, than to any enmity

STATEHOOD BILL
FINALLY PASSES
SENATE ADOPTS SUBSTITUTE AS
AMENDMENT TO HOUSE.
MEASURE.
PROVIDES FOR ADMISSION OF
NEW MEXICO AND ARIZONA
AS SEPARATE STATES.

Washington, June '17.-After re
naming on the senate calendar al
most three months in a state of I'M
certainty as to its fate, the bill pro-
viding for the admission of New Mex
leo and Arizona to separate statehood
was passed.
The emasure was called up by Sen
ator Beverage, chairman of the COM
mittee on territories. Senators Bever-
idge, Frazier, Nelson, Hughes ana
Smoot spoke for the bill but the dem
ocrats favored the house bill.
When the vote was reached there
was a division on the senate salbstI-
tute for the house bill, but with that
amendment accepted, the senate voted
solidly for the passage of the bill,
The senate substitute was adopted as
an amendment to the house mea -ure
by a strictly party vote.
AS passed the bill would provide
for the admission as states of the two
territories, but not until after the
constitution has been adopted by
each, approved by the president ana
ratified by congress.
Under the bill as amended by the
senate it might be two and half
years before the statehood law would
become operative and the house con-
ferees want to shorten the time to
the spring of 1911, but the indications
are that ar. agreement will be reached
in conference. The house passed the
statehood bill early in the session.
Railroad Bill Goes over.
The conference report on the rail
road bill was taken up, but action was
postponed until today Senator Elk
ms in explaining the measure as
agreed upon by the conferees, said it
was substantially as recommended by
the president.
The retirement of Associate Justice
Moody of the United States supreme
court upon full pay was practically
assured yesterday by the action OF
both the senate and house committee
on judiciary in favorably reporting
the bill. Moody has been i'll for many
months. The senate passed bill reg
ulating the use of wireless telegraphy.
The bill requires operators to secure
a government license. This is to pre-
vent amateurs from interfering with
government messages.
