James J. Jeffrfes, determined to
u him out for the count before he
gets a chance to show What he can
DO against Jack johnson on July 4.
came TO the front again yesterday at
Jeffries's training camp when the

ries did not show any emotion. He
went right to work cutting logs and
chopping wood.
Rain made outdoor work impossible
in the morning. The sparrfng sessions
were postponed again, without any ap-
parent reason, other than tina jeff
ries did not feel in the mood TO box.
In place of this Jeffries went through
the full list Of the gymnasium appa-
ratus. working himself into a fine glow.
The motonony of the camp Was
broken during the afternoon by a
wrestling match between Farmer
Burns and Baron Carl Henkel, an off,
Ger of the German army. who was n
visitor at the camp. The baron thought
he could win from Burns easily, and
several wagers were made on the out
come of the match. Burns, however,
scored a fall in two minutes and thir-
ty-fve seconds.
Sam Berger. Jeffries's manager, re-
turned to camp today. Berger would
make no announcement as 20 the first

statement made tonight in reply to
letter sent by Mayor Gaynor to Police
Commissioner Baker. In which the
mayor deplores the anti-vice crusade
recently undertaken by Mitchell as
acting mayor during Mr.. Gaynor's
aconvalescence.
A list of alleged disrcputablc resorts
sent by Mitcrcll to Police Commits
sioner Baker has come to the mayors
attention, and he brands the list in his
letter of today as similar to n list
made up In a wholly Enthusiastically
newspaper office for scandal and SEN
sation, and too Inaccurate to be made
the basis of official action"
AS proof of inaccuracy the mayor
cites that five of the addresses mem
toned are on the sito of the new
Pennsylvania station, and ordered
Baker to apologize to the owners Of
certain houses "stigmatized."
Mr.. Mitchell, when shown the
mayors letter. said he had sent TIVE
lists to Commission Baker, one con-
tanning addresses which had been
verified as undesirable, the other
with addresses made In complaints
which were submitted for verification.
