to waste any more time or money IN
California, but Jeffries and Johnson
will meet on the Fourth of July, even
II have to take them on the desert to
hold the fight, and even if 1t breaks
me-"
That there is no intention on the part
of the State authorities to recede from
their position is clearly indicated in
the latest pronouncements Of the Gov
ernor and the attorney general.
Governor Gillett says: II understand
that many men have arranged to come
to California to see Jeffries and john
son fight. To them I want to say that
thew need have no doubt about the
situation. There will be no fight be-
tween Jeffries and Johnson in Cali
fornia."
Attorney-General Webb says: There
will be no fight between Jeffries and
johnson, nor between Kaufman and
Langford. The latter fight, which is
scheduled for Saturday, will be stopped
by force II the principals and promot-
ers persist and make such action neces-
sary. My intention is to file a petition
today asking for a restraining order

Hans Decker, of Elizabeth, and Jimmy
Carroll, of Brooklyn. Decker won his
bout at the Central last Monday, put

scored a Knockout over his ancient
rival. Willie Jones, before the Brooklyn
Beach Athletic Club, of Brooklyn. last

following round and took the aggres
sive again.
IN the fifth session Patsy slammed
over a left that blackened Jones's eye
and the latter stalled throughout the
rest of the round In an effort to prevent
q knockout. The sixth and seventh
were Patsy's by a shade, and in the
eighth Kline pummeled his adversary
all around III ring and sent him to the
floor with a well-directed left to the
Jaw. Jones was very tired and spent
the last two rounds clinehing to escape
a knockout.

BY FRANK J. M'TAGUE

VERY effort will be made by the
Tigers and Bisons to start the
second series at Newark this
afternoon. Early this morning the
ground tender and his assistants were
hard at work filling in the soft spots
and raking the skin part of the in
field, preparing for the game that only
a downpour could stop.
The Tigers practised as usual and all
clouted the ball hard. From today on
the Tigers will face the opposing pitch
ers in an entirely different manner.
Eddie Zimmerman will lead off, and
as the little third sacker is about as
fleet as they come he ought to come
near getting around. Bob Gapley. who
will be sent back in right in place of
Benny Meyer, will follow, and the for
mer big leaguer's ability to lay down
bunts is we'll known. In man, cases

which the scene of the big fight is in
volved, Sam Berger is prepared to take
immediate action. After digesting the
accounts of the situation in the a
Francisco papers yesterday Jeffries's
manager made arrangements to break
camp at a moments notice. He IS
hourly waiting word from Tex Richard,
giving definite plans of the promoters.
Neither Berger nor the trainers think
that a shift to Nevada would harm
J~effries. They point out that Jeffries
has been used to the mountains all his
life and that a high altitude would
have no terrors for him, but despite
Berger's preparations to move, Jeffrjs IS
still clings to the belief thai the fight
will yet be pulled off in San Francisco.
Jim Corbett advises against a post
ponement, as it might prove injurious
for Jeffries to break training and re-
sumo 1t later.
Jeffries worked like a farmer in hay

afternoon he slipped out of camp and
spent several holrs fishing. AS i rea-

camp get a line on his speed or c,ndi-

Mrs. Muirehad. who conducts the re-
zort where Johnson is training; Tom
Little and the rest OF the party. who
were at the Jeffries camp, left as soon
as it was that Jeffries would
not boz.
Jeffries refused to discuss the Gov
ernor's order TO stop the fight, and to-
day seemed little perturbed by the dis
quoting news. He appeared in excel
lent spirits.
