DELANEY IS FIGURING
AHEAD TO GET TITLE
As Johnson's Sparring Partner
All Kaufman Had Chance to
Study Champion.

Will ring history be repeated? Years
ago when Jim Corbett fought and lost
the championship to Bob Fitzsimmons
at Carson City, New, Jim Jeffries was
Corbett's sparring partner Billy De-
laney, who had charge of Corbett
training, hired Jeffries and, after see
ing him work out few times with
Corbett, became aware of the fact that
JeffrieS was Il better scrapper than
Corbett and a possible champion He
did not do the foolish thing of match
ing him Immediately with FitGsim-
mons who was then the champion. In
stead he sent Jeffries against easier
men until he was sure JeffrieS had the
making of a champion. After meeting
in succession Gus Rubin. Joe Choynski
Joe Goddard. Peter Jackson and Pete
Everett, Delaney matched him with
Ton Sharkey. This battle proved JEFF
fries was great fighter. y few months
later he fought Bob Armstrong and
beat him in ten rounds After this fight
Delaney thought Jeffr!es was ripe for
the championship. so he Immediately
arranged the match. They met at Coney
Island June 2, 1899, more than two

Richards plan, so coast reports say, is
to get the two big fellows together at
Reno Thanksgiving day. He would be
doing Jeff a greater kindness if he were
TO persuade him to seek the quiet of his
ranch and look for a younger man to dis
pute with Johnson the supremacy of the
ring. Nearly every day some new candi-
date for a fight with Johnson hobs up,
hut the material in sight surely is any
thing but promising Lansford, Burns.
Kaufman and klondike all have been
mentioned. hut none of them seems able
to give the big colored fellow a real
battle
Langford has everything but size, and,
though lie is willing to try. ii is not prob
able that he will get chance. as no pro-
moteI' is likely to offer sufficiently large
purse to tempt Johnson to make the
match. Harvards strong man. Earl Van
Meter Long, thinks he would like to take
a chance with the champion: He Is SAID
to know something of boxing. and has
the necessary size and strength. Frank
Gotch also has been suggested, bat has
announced that he wants none of the

years after Fitzsimmons had won the
title from Corbett at Carson City. Now
JeHrieS was the victor. Delaney is
pursuing the same course with Al
Kaufman as he did with Jeffries. It is
said that one Of the conditions Delaney
insisted upon before lie would consent
to 60 in Johnsons corner for the JEFF
fries fight was that the colored cham
picn take Kaufman as one of his spar
ring partners. Delaney evidently knew
more than a year ago Jeffrics could not
come back. His bluff of matching Kauf-
man against Jeffries is now recalled.
BY being so closely connected with
Johnson in the recent fight both De-
laney and Kaufman were able to study
the big Negroes style of fighting. kauf-
man and Johnson may meet in years
10 come. but before they do clash Kauf-
man will be seen with less formidable
rivals. such as Tommy Burns and Sam
LangfcrG. \ match with Langford
doubtless would be the better card Of
the two.

This unexpected action was taken at the

is peculiar in that the Chicago Giants, a
coored team, will remain in the league
The only reason assigned for the move is
that the Cuban teams have been over
running Chicago territory for the last

principally against them. The ruling will
work hardship on the Stars of Cuba
