when the Jeffries-J Johnson battle comes
off. Within the next few weeks most
| of the fighters now in the East will hit
the long trail Some of them have en-
gagements all made for the coast. and
others will go out on a chance to pick
up some money and incidentally see the
big fight. Among those who are soon
to make their getaways are Attell.
Langford, Jem Driscoll. Ketchel. John
ME Coulon, Willie Lewis, Joe jeanette,
Jim Stewart, Battling Nelson. Ad VOL
gast. AL Kaufman, Matty Baldwin and
many others Things will be very dull
in the East after the first week in June.

pugilists out of funds. which means
easy matchmaking for the Eastern pro-
