mates by the city authorities publish

population Of all the boroughs at "a !
730,350, a guess that wasnot very far
of.
In 1861, eight years after New Am.
sterdaE's Incorporation, the popula.
tion was LAB. BY 1900 It had risen
to 60,48g, In 1916 It passed the 100.-
900 mark. By 1850 1t was 515,547, and
In 1875 1t passed the million marx. In
1893, the date OF the last official fig

New York, the population was placed
at 1901, 306. Greater New York was
created in 1898, with a total popula.
ton Of 3,S50.000 for the five boroughs,
embracing an area of 800 square miles.
The city passed the 100000 mark in

the official figures OF 1901 London's

London, including all metropolitan and

New York may well be proud OF her

CAVE Man and ABE
ATTELL IN TOWN
LangfOrd Comes to Do Battle
With Kaufman and Feather
viii Meet DriSCOH

Two more stars of the boxing firma-
ment arrived in town last night to full
fill engagements here Sam Langford
whose real prowess as a ringman has
never been thoroughly exhibited here
comes to mix it with AL kaufman, a
local heavy weight product. Abe At
tell, the American feather weight
champion, is on hand to start in train
ing for his battle with Jem DriscoI, the
English feather weight champion.
Langford is probably the most re-
markable fighter in the ring today
Just how good a man he. really is has
not been found out, as he has been
beating his opponents in his class with
apparent ease, and he has stacked UP
against fighters twice his size and has
beaten them. Among the many oppo-
nents Langford has met is Champion
Jack Johnson. and though compara-
lively a midget alongside the heavy
weight champion, Langford battIed him
for 15 rounds, losing the decision at
the end.
Langford and Kaufman are matched
to fight before Louis Blot's Metropoli-
tan club on the 18th of this month The
affair will be staged during the after
noon in the new arena of BIots at
Eighth and Howard streets. The men
are to go 20 rounds.
This is probably one of the best fight
ing attractions in the country outside
of the Johnson -Jeffries go and the con-
test figures to be a hurricane affair
Langford has appeared in this city
but once This was against Fireman
Jim Flynn, who took the count in the
opening round. The local promoters
have made many vain endeavors to get
a suitable man to meet the Boston tar
baby, but have been unsuccessful, until
Blot sent his agent, Billy Mccartney
east and he landed the attraction
Kaufman is at Harbin Springs. He
is expected back in few days, when
he will go cut to Johnson's camp and
work out with the heavy weight cham
pion.
Langford will wait until Monday. be-
fore he starts training. The colored
fighter is in fairly good shape. as he
has been fighting right along. He win
train at Millett's resort at Colma. Lang
ford's manager, Joe Woodman, stopped
off at Rowardennan to visit Jeffries.
Billy Mccartney and Langford came in
together last night.
Attel appears to- be in fair shape
as he recently hooked up with Tommy
Murphy in the east. He plans to re-
main in the city for four or five days
and then start training. He is think
ing of going to Rowardennan to join
the Jeffries camp.
Il want it distinctly understood" said
AtteH last night, that the American
feather weight title is not at stake in
my coming fight with Driscoll. The
.Englishman can not make the weight
to fight for the American feather
weight title. which is 122 pounds ring
side. According TO the articles in my
coming fight the weight is 126 pounds
four hours before the fight. which will
give Driscoll a great advantage in
weight.
However. 126 pounds is the feather
weight limit in England, so the English
title will be at stake. -
Driscoll is expected TO arrive here
within few da.s.

GILLETT BRANDS
INTERVIEW FAKE
Chief Executive at Chicago Says
He Never Called Johnson
JefrieS Bout Fran7eup
Isesoial Dispatch 10 The Cali

CHICAGO. June Before departing
for the west tonight Governor Gillett
Of California took occasion to deny
emphatically stories sent out by certain
news agencies quoting him as saying
that the Jenries- johnson fight was
framed up affair. These reports quoted
Governor GfIett as saying that Jeffries
would never enter the ring with the
negro unless assured in advance that
victory was certain
The governor was also quoted as
saying that he could not interfere ex-
cept in case Of riot, and the only thing
that would provoke a. riot would be
for Johnson TO win and that there was
not the slightest chance for him TO
win.
Governor Gillett said tonight that he
IS sick Of the whole mess and declined
TO submit TO any more interviews on
the fight, as he says they are distorted
and he is made to say things he does
not. He wishes the fight might have
been held in some other state, since it
has attracted so much unfavorable com
ment and caused him to be pursued by
reporters at every city during his east
ern trip AS far as venturing an opin-
Ion on the outcome or as to the square
dealing Of the whole affair he will say
nothing. He said that personal views
he expressed on prize fighting in gen
eral were distorted so as TO make him
say that the Jeffries-Johnson match
was crooked from the beginning.
The governor made IL clear that IN
der the California laws he could not
stop the night. The only step he could
take would be to preserve order in the
event the local authorities were unable
10 do so.
