T1HE absolute refusal Of Governor

i a the stand taken by him in the
prize fight matter and as firm a'deter-
1nination on the part of Attorney Gen
eral L. S. Webb to use every legal
snesns to prohibit the Jeffries- Johnson
fight July 4 effectually crushed the
lingering hopes.of the sporting frater-
nity Of the city Yesterday that diff
ferent light would be thrown on the
perplexed situation after the various
officials had an opportunity Of con-
ferring and giving the question a more
detailed Investigation And as eli
max to the entire affair Tex Ricllard
came out unequivocally that unless he
was given definite promise by Sat
urday that there would be no legal
interference and that the fight could
proceed with the official sanction he
would have it held in Reno, New.
Chances Are Slim
The conferences came TO nauglt.
z The arguments were futile. The gov
ernor made it evident that he intended
TO stand by his declarations and stop
the fight. In the face OF this stand
and that taken by the attorney gem
eral the possibilities Of the fight being
held here are exceedingly slim.
Some time today the attorney gen
eral win file his complaint and ask for
in5unctions TO restrain the Jenries-

ing resolution expressing itself:
Whereas, many persons riding on
streetcars within the limits of the
city and county of San Francisco

scabies, ringworm, impetigo, para
site and other skin diseases. and
Whereas, many of said passen
gers use strap hangers installed

modation of passengers and in th:s
manner contaminate said leather !.

mended for passage.
The ordinance, which is in the hands

tect the community from this most
