TRAINING CAMP, Reno,
July An unusual calm
prevailed over Jeffries'
camp this morning. The big
fellow slept a little later than
was his wont, and after a
short stroll about the
grounds, ate a hearty break
fast. Only members of his
training squad were with
him, Cornell, Armstrong and
Burns reamining, the bal
ance Of the crew being in the
city.
A little stir was created by
an objection being entered
by Jeffries to the canvas
covering the ring, it being
too slippery. Berger and
Corbett were called up and
instructed to see that a new
covering was provided. They
were skirmishing around
town as early as Z clock,
but were not as successful as
they hoped, the quality of
canvas in the few supply
houses in town being very
little different from that in
the ring. 1t is probable that
the canvas used at one or the
other training camps will be
substituted.
No evidence Of the sane and safe
Fourth of July has penetrated the
surrounding sagebrush country.
Reno, after a week of jabbering,
hysteria and convuIslons, .awoke to.

JUDGE
DIES
(By United Press.)

BAR HARBOR, Maine,
July 4.-Chief Justice Mel
vile E. Fuller of the su-
preme court of the United
States died here today of
heart failure.
Justice Fuller was born in
Augusta, Maine, February
II, 1888, and has served as
chief justice since October 8,
1888. He took the oath of
office on October 8 of the
same year. Judge Fuller's
father was Frederick A.
Fuller, and there is coinci-
dence in the fact that his
mother was the daughter of
Chief Justice Nathaniel
Weston. Young Fuller at
tended school at Augusta,
and was graduated from
Bowdoin college in the class
of 1853.
After Mr.. Fuller's admission to
the bar in 1856 he remained in
Augusta only two or three years.
In that time he was a member of
the city council and at one time
city attorney.
Then he went to Chicago. He
was elected to the state constitu-
tional convention in 1861 and in
the following year to the state leg
islature as democrat from a
strongly republican district. He
was chosen delegate to the dem
ocratic national conventions of
1864. 1872, 1876 and 1850. He was
an intimate friend of Stphen A.
Douglas and was the chief speaker
at the meeting of welcome extend
ed Douglas by Chicago in 1860.
When Mr. Fuller was appointed
to the highest judicial position in
the nation, the subject of his parti-
sanship came up. A democratic

THE FOURTH
CLAIMS ONE
VICTIM HERE

The festive spirit of the Fourth
claimed one life this morning at s
O'Clock when John Winandy, a
ranch laborer, was killed at the In
land depot at Greenacres.
Winandy had just arrived at the
depot to take an excursion train
and darted across the track to get
his avlise. He misjudged the
speed of the approaching train, and
returning to the platform was run
down and instantly killed.
Winandy's body was taken by the
railroad officials to Smith & Co. s
undertaking rooms, where it will
await an inquiry by Coroner
Schlegel.

betters offered $25 to $1O0 that the
negro would win inside of 19
rounds, but found few takers.
A number of trains from the east
are reported late. and scores of
fans may arrive too late to witness
the opening of the fight.
Jeffries was in high spirits after
breakfast, apparently giving no
thought to the afternoon contest.
He joked with a number of close
friends, but religiously refrained
form discussing the fight.

Crowd of 10000 at Arena
Special Boxes for Wo-
men Spectators.
BY MAX BALTHASAR.


RiNGSiDE, Reno, July 4.-Now
for the answer!
For several months several mil
lion persons---men, women and chill
dren-scattered at odd spots over
the surface of the earth, have been
specuIating on the outcome Of a lit
tie meeting to be held this after
noon in this arena. For several
weeks past several dozen wise men
Of sportdom have been giving tho
public inside information on what
the result would be. The informa-
tlon has been the best in the world
and probably the most scholarly
and expert that has ever been
served to fight fans, but, owing to
the disagreement of the doctors of
pugloley, the public has had to wait
for this hour. AS result of the in.
terest in the controversy, about
10000 people turned out this after
non, paying from $40 to $50 for the
privilege of occupying 18 inches of
sun kissed pine board.
Before 10 o'clock the crowds be-
gan storming the entrances to the
arena and by 11:55. the hour at
which the gates were thrown open,
the crowd, composed mainly of the
holders of the $40 seats, the cheap
est, numbered several thousand.
The first ticket taken at the gate
was held by T. G. Muruhy, Phila-
delphia hotel keeper,

Even as the crowd came pouring
through the narrow chutes leading
to the octagOnal arena, carpenters
were busy at a score of places
erecting protecting ratings and re-
inforcing vital places in the struc-

composing the arena proper were
the eight boxes reserved for women.

BANKS BLAMED
! FOR MONEY EVILS
Currency System Should Be
Divorced From Control
Of Financiers

Editor Call: In the issue of The
ing literally from paper read by
William c. Ralston. assistant treas
urer of the United States. in which ne
opposes the central bank idea. His
principal fear seems 10 be that the
bank may fall into the hands of a
few leading fnanciers, or of politicians,
who win. through its influence, use
the currency control for their own in
terests. This would undoubtedly be the
case. But why do Mr.. Ralston and the
thousand and one others who write
on finance as it is refuse TO observe
the philosophical facts underlying the
currency question?
The currency of this country today
is in control of the bankers associa-
ton dominated by the National City
bank of New York. as much as it would
be under any scheme of a central bank
made possible by any new legislation.
But why should the banking interests
and the currency be discussed as so
interdependent? There is no just nor
logical necessity of an alliance of in
terest There is no warrant in the
national constitution for the banks TO
dabble in our currency questions; nor
is their warrant for the government
to interfere with banking interests.
The issuing of currency is national
function and its quantitative direction
should be in the control of the de-
mands of commerce, and not in the
hands of private bankers who ma
nipulate il for their special profit. nor
of politicians. who manage il for party
interests.
1t should answer the demands of
commerce and industry. expanding with
the crop movements and industrial en-
terprise and contracting at times when
these demands are satisfied.
Banking is a private function. and
should be subject to state laws, and
properly has nothing TO do with cur
rency.
What we need is currency system
free from private control. There are
but three currency systems known To
political science. Two of them have
been tried and found to be inadequate
10 our needs Let us try the third.
