ran like a streak for rock, tearing
the hook off. Orris tied another hook
on his line and batting II threw out
again. In a few minutes there was an
other jerk and Orris reeled IN, to his
surprise, the same bass with the two
hooks and both stonecats in its
mouth.

NO INTERFERENCE
 WITH BIG FIGHT
Frisco District Attorney Says Author.
 ities Are Powerless.

San Francisco. May 2O-The atti- tude of the law officers of this city toward the Jeffries- Johnson fight was definitely settled this afternoon by District Attorney Fickert, who declar- ed that there r$re no legal grounds for interference If the contestants comply with the provision of the code and the ordinance" he said, it is not within the power of the police depart ment or the sheriff to prohibit the fight I've read the articles of agree ment and they are in all respects within the statute.
 It is impossible for me to pre- determine whether there will be vio- lation of the statute If during the fight the principals or their represen- tatives violate the law, they may be punished. As has been stated by courts of both this country and Eng land. It is a question for the jury to determine whether such contest is a sparring match or prize fight
 If q majority of the people of the state of California are against pro- fessional sparring exhibitions their remedy lies with the legislature to prohibit the same"
 While in consultation with Chief of Police Martin regarding policing the big fight Rickard was informed of the decision of the district attorney. He expressed his delight at the news and said that the promoters would proceed al once with detailed preparations for the contest

Bob Arm strong was the first. to go on with the white champion and in. the first two rounds he escaped without damage. for the reason that the morning air was chill and Jeff was slow to warm up. In the third, however. Bob carelessly stepped in front of a heavy one. One left hook caught him in the forehead and he would have gone to the floor had he not bumped the wall first.
 When Choynski's turn came Jeffries was becoming interested in the work
