New York, February 2s.-Iack john
son. champion pugiiist Of the world.
is out with wild and violent attack
on John L. Sullivan. Mr.. Sullivan de-
clared recently that Johnson could
knocl, the spots off James j. Jeffries.
To that opinion the champion takes no
exception. But Mr.. Sullivan also opin-
ed that the fight would be framed up
for JEFF to win. This stirred the much
arrested Johnson to spasms.
As a matter OF fact, Sullivan gave
voice to a suspicion widely in exist
ence right now.
Few Look for Square Deal.
II you talk to the men who follow
the ring game closely here Is what you
find In every ten men you meet:
Four believe the fight will never
come Off
Three think 1T is frame-up for
Jeffries to win.
Two believe Johnson will win hon
estly.
one believes Jerries will win hon
estly.
Never before In the history of pu-
gilism has big fight. fight for the
championship. aroused such widespread
skepticism and fear.
Arrangements Cause Doubt.
From the first day that fight be-
tween johnson and .Jeffries was men

The press agents Of the affair have
striven valiantly to decorate 1t with q
large splash Of Inconsistency.

Lexington. Va, February 2s.-Train-
ers and buyers OF trutting horses IN
this section are complaining of the
scarcity of good racing material in
Kentucky this season. One prorni-
neat trainer was heard to say that
he had been at the Kentucky Trottins
Horse BREEDERS Association for seven
teen years and never before in that
time had he seen so few promising
horses In training. Trainers that
heretofore handled from ten to TWEEN
ty horses now have from five TO ten
and many have but one. and few
trainers stationed here are at the
present time making expenses. He
stated II was his belief that there
was not more than seventy five
horses In training in Central Ken
lucky. and but few OF those were
really promising.
He gives for the cause OF this dearth
of good trotting material the great
demand in the East for Kentuckybrc
trotters, especially the get of Peter
tho Great. Moko, Walnut Hall, Jay
McGregor and othe. great Kentucky
stations, and the high prices realized
for yearlings and 2-year-oids In the
New York and Chicago markets have
caused many breeders, who in the past
had their youngsters trained at tho
local track. to send them to the mar
kct, and in this way the horses pass
into hands of trainers who have their
headquarters in the East, and many
of them who desire their horses to
be ready for early racing. winter them
at Memphis. Tennessee.

SPORTS SMELL FAKE IN
COMING BIG PRIZE FIGHT

the Square to Many Sporting Men---Some Pc
culiar Angles to the Mill.

stacking the sheke,s from the enthu-
siastic and easlly-hypnotized Ameri-
can admirers.
Why Is Jenries going to fight John
son? df he really Isl.
why Jen wants to Fight.
Jeffries himself tably abetted in his
seriousness by jim corbett) declares
that he Is going to fight for the sole
purpose OF vindicating the white race
to wipe out the stain on the Anglo
Saxon banner--to chastise the negro
for presuming to annex title which
SO Theoretically attaches tho dollars

Lovely talk for Fourth Of July
spout. but in theechill climate Of Feb
ruary It sounds somewhat like torrd
atmosphere It seems fair presump-
ton that Jeffries seeks to pad the bank
roll.
Big Money from Pictures.
Well, then. at least so per cent. Of
the expected profits from the fight
hinges on the fight pictures. AS Mr.
Sullivan points out, few people would
pay the coin to see pictures illustrate
ing the spectacle of black man maui
ing a white man to trazzle. Ii NIT.
Jefries wins the fight he has contract
ready at his hand which Will give him
500, 900 for trip around the world.
It is safe estimate that defeat
at Johnson's hands would cost Ieffries
$3.50. 0O0-a quarter of million dollars.
1t would cost Johnson possibly $4,000.
This fight is financially top-heayy.
Time was when men fought for worlds
championships on a guarantee of $1,000.
No man Is likely to sell out where the
stake is so small When a fortune OF
over $45o,OoO Is involved In a fight it
means the presence of temptation in
fertile. lnsidlous and powerful forms
THE shadow of that pile of coin casts
doubt upon the proceedings and gives
ground for suspicion. Pugilism Is not

Strain on the Moral Fibre.

i 1t Is the history of human activity
that large financial stakes tend to en-
/ gender Iaxities OF moral scruples. This
| Is moro generally true in pugilism than
anywhere else, and Is fact constitute
| Ing logical basis for suspicion as to
the motives and intentions of managers
| and participants.
Jack Johnson has not. 1t must be
said in fairness, won a large share of
confidence and respect since he re-
turned to these shores with bullying
pocket-book, u sassy air and a white
wife. He has been making the ac-
quaintance OF the police courts OF
America with regularity Indicating
the mania OF tho souvenir hunter In
ways that are dark and malodorous.
He seems bent on beating the record
OF William Penn, who is said to have
had the finest collection OF jail SEN
fences in the history of England. He
has faced his ignominy with an indif-
ference betokening small sensitiveness
to public opinion.
Called Him Coward.
One judge before whom Johnson
appeared declares that johnson is a
coward. for he is brute toward weak
people"
AL this has stirred up q disgust
among even ttough-stomached fight fol-
lowers and laid the foundations for a
general distrust of Jack Johnson.
The opening of bids for the fight
was hedged with secrecy. Later on 1t
was discovered that the fight articles
had secret clauses which did not APP
pear in the original announcements
The pictures are controlled by the JEFF
fries-Johnson corporation. The fight
is promoted by two sporting men who
now appear (publicly at least) as
enemies working at cross-purposes.
Johnson siding with one. Jeffries with
the other.
| Johnson Is under bail In case
threatening him with a long prison
sentence that would put an end tc
4 the fight.
4 All over the country wise critics are
declaring that Jeffries can never gel
| in shape again.
All these facts cooperate to cause
/ general suspicion and Interest.
/ Little Good to Fighting Game.
| Under tho circumstances little good
| to the fighting game can result. what
ever happens. Neither puEilist has
acted openly and aboveboard with
| the public thus far. nor have the man
ayers.
The great majority OF unprejudiced
men see no chance for Jeffries to win
in fair fight. II this is a correct
! diagnosis. Jeff himself knows It,.
Would he enter the ring with sure de-
feat facing him? Would he take even
long chance on being whipped?
Would he do so especially in view Of
the money at stake?
Thus far Mr.. sullivan's charges have
not caused any marked resentment
among fight fans

had turned their minds to mines instead Of
bail players and the market instead of the
national game they would be wealthy be-
yond all measure by this time. They make
good at their profession each year. and
baseball is n profession as III is played to-
day. They like their work and they earn
the fat salaries they get. 1t Is not all play.
You fans who have never seen manager at
WORK with ball team in the South do not
realize how hard the work Is, and when you
say hasn't So-and-So got cinch" you do
not know what you are talking about.
