SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.--That he
had severed all relations with George
Little, his former manager and would
manage his own affairs at least until
after the Fourth of July battle with
Jim Jeffries, was the statement made
to the Associated Press today by Jack
Johnson. The big negro had completed
his usual road work this morning and
made his declaration of intentions after
leaving the rubbing table. He stated
he would have nothing more to do with
Little and that he would not engage
manager until after the big fight,
though he expected to do so then.
In a statement made today for pub
lication, Little reiterated his determine
tion to hold Johnson to the terms of
the contract he claims to have made
with the fighter. The contract, he
said, was to run until May, 1911, and
he declared that he would take legal
steps to see that he was not "Juggled
out of it, Little intimated that his
action might interfere with the fight
itself Early today Little removed his
effects from the training camp and
took up quarters down town.
Johnson did not permit the row with
his manager to interfere with his work
and passed most of the morning on
the road, taking the course in a more
leisurely fashion than usual. The
smoke is guarding against what ne
fears is a too rapid reduction or
weight. and for the next week ne eX-
poets to work slower.
The story that Billy Nolan will very

"If I do take charge" said Nolan,
very cautiously "and that is practi-
cally arranged, I will endeavor to see
that my man gets what is coming TO
him. We want nothing else"
The story of a switch in referees is
again being discussed because OF the
Nolan angle to the affair; FROM tne
outset Nolan has opposed Tex Rick
ard as referee on the ground that the
Nevadan is not sufficiently we'll ae-
ouainted with the game. Nolan, as
matter of fact, was instrumental IN
securing the consent Of johnson to
agree to Eddie Smith, who was the
original Jeffries candidate. Rlekard

.LONDON'S HORSE SHOW
IS OPENED IN OLYMPIA
Foreigners Withhold Entries, but
American List Is Good
but Rather Small

LONDON, June 6.-The International
Horse show opened at Olympia this
afternoon. It will continue ten days.
Although lacking the royal patronage
to which it has owed so much in the
past, the exhibition as been anticipated
with peculiar interest by society and
horsemen as one of the few events or
the season that has not been robbed
of the usual gaiety because of the
mourning for the late king.
The opening was without ceremony,
but a large crowd was on hand to see
the wonderfully decorated hall, which
is a rare spectacle in itself, and the
horses housed in stalls lined with varl-
colored cloths and embellished with
the prizes won at former shows.
The entries from abroad are fewer
than formerly. The italian officers
who have taken such a prominent part
in the jumping contests heretofore
withheld their entries this year, insist
ing that to be truly international the
exhibitions should be held successlVely
in the different capitals.
The Americans, too, have not sent
as many horses as they did last year,
but they are we'll represented. Waiter
Winans again heads the list in the
number and variety of entries, his
exhibit appearing in almost every
class, from Shetland ponies to hunters.
W. II. Moore, who last year captured
many Of the big prizes, is good
second, having entered forty horses,
chiefly in the harness classes, including
two coaching teams. Other American
competitors are: C. w. Watson, with
twenty horses; Xavier Riant, who has
again entered Jubilee, the hunter hold
ing the Olympia jumping record; Paul
Cravath, who will also compete in the
jumping events; Miss L. Long of
Kansas City, who has entered a trot-
ter, and Edwin II. Weatherbee, who
has team of five American-bred
hunters.
Paul serg will take part in the coach
ing events.

a contender for title in heavier
division, but the game little bantam
champ finds it difficult to keep busy in
his own division and is forced to go
outside of it to keep busy. Hence the
match with Moran.
Notwithstanding that Conley is Civ
ing away a big chunk of weight in this
scrap, he has a strong following here
that will bet on him to whip the Brit
isher Abe Attell could not turn the
trick with all his cleverness and speed,
but many fans believe that the rugged
little champ of a lighter division will
prove too strong, too good puncher
and too game for the English lad. Bet
ting last night was at to 1, with Con-
ley on the short end for once in his life.
At these odds there was considerable
betting, and Joe Conley, manager of
the champion, was offering to l last
night that his brother would stay the
limit, while at the same time taking
few hundred on the general result at 2
to 1. This all goes to show the conf
dence that prevails in the Conley camp.
Charlie Harvey, manager of Moran,
arrived last night from New York
with the wife of the British scrapper.
Harvey visited Moran at Venice and
expressed his satisfaction with the
condition Of Moran, despite that Moran
had INDUCED himself in a few days of
lax endeaVor in the early stages of his
training period. He says that Moran
is fit and ready to do his best and
cannot offer any excuses in the event
of defeat. Both boys are within the
required weight limit already and will
find no difficulty in making the re-
quired 124 pounds at o'clock this
afternoon Moran will weigh close to
the figure named, while Conley will be
about three pounds lighter. By the
I,o
about five or six pounds difference in
their weights, all in favor of Moran.
The preliminary card is unusually
attractive. Three bouts, two of which
are at six rounds and the semi-windup
at ten rounds, bring out boys of proved
class and fighting ability and there
should not be a dull moment during
their miXups. The show will start off
with a siX-round bout betN cen Young
Jeffries, an eastern hoy of good fight
ing repute, and Jeff o Connell, an Eng
lish scrapper who has more than made
good in this country. They will tangle
at this distance in an effort at max
ing good for future fights here.
Kid Rees who has been making good
ever since he began to fight, has been
substituted for Rube Patterson in the
six-round scrap with Paul Sikora, and
the styles of milling of both boys is
sufficient proof that this battle will be
the real thing all the way, with
chance for knockout within the short
distance scheduled. Rees knocked out
Jimmy Davis last week at san Pedro
in four rounds and is getting better
at every try. The Windup will
be a ten-round affair between Young
Rivers and Martin Leahy, both knock
out fighters, and they win make 122
pounds at 3 o'clock this afternoon.
Leahy won his last fight by the knock
out route and Rivers has been i'm
pressing the fans for some time with
his cleverness, speed and terrific wal
looping. This looks like the most fitting
