FRAME-UP CRAZY YARN.

Asked Point-blank If there was any
possibility OF there being any truth
in the report that Jeffries had un-
derstood that the fight was fixed and
Johnson Was TO lie down. Armstrong
replied With heat.
That's crazy yarn. Why should
Jeffries want anybody to lay down?
Did any one before ever hurt him?
Jack Johnson is the champion. and
I'm proud that one of my race holds
the championship title. but let me

say that Johnson was never in Jeff's
class when he was fighting right. Why
then, should Jim have been afraid OF
him and want him TO quit?
That talk about a frame-up is all
rot. Now just let me give you a couple
or instances in connection with the
fight that may convince the public
that everything was on the level.
When Tex Richard came TO Jef's
camp at Rowardennan and told him
that the fight could not be held In
Frisco, but would have TO be trans
ferred to Nevada. Jeffries was pretty
sore and the whole thing came very
near being called of right then aud
there.
Il heard Jeffries himself finally
consent 10 hight in Nevada lust to
save Richard from further financial
loss. IL was as favor TO Richard pure
and simple that he consented TO go
ahead with the match.
AFRAID JOHNSON WOULD QUIT
Then Richard kept running over
to Jen's camp at Reno every little
while for week before the fight and
l afterward learned that it was in
regard TO splitting the purse.
johnson wanted to divide the
money evenly, but Jef stuck TO the
original articles. IS and % per cent.
and only agreed to cut il 60 and 40
when there was danger of johnson
quitting cold.
Il think it mighty poor business
for the men who promoted the fight
TO tell so many secrets in connection
with il after It was all over. If
there was anything to be told. the
public should have known of it be
fore the fight took place"
When Bob was asked If he
thought Jenries could defeat John.
son If they ever met again he was
noncommittal. you can gamble
every cent you've got that 'Je' would
fight 100 per cent better" he said.
What he needs is two or three fights
before he again tackles johnson
though. Il will probably be some
time before any one Will be found
who can beat Johnson. but believe
me. he is not the great fighter people
think he is. and the first man that
presses him close will see him run
ming like a rabbit from a hound
According 10 Armstrong. Langford

contenders just now TO heat johnson.

TELLS WHY JEFF LOST
Nervous Reaction Real Cause, Says
Bob" Armstrong.

Boston. Mass. July 31.-Big Bob
Armstrong. the heavyweight pugllist
who was a member of Jim Jenries'
training camp from the time the once
heavyweight champion first began
active training for his fight with Jack
Johnson. entertains only one belief
in regard 70 the white mans Gown
tall. He is positive that nervous re-
action. following months of the hard
est kind of training. was response
bic for Jeffries' defeat
You can say for me, and put it as
strong as you like. that it was moth
ing more or less than nervous re
action that beat Jim Jemries." said
Bob. "All the excuses that are being
offered for Jeff's defeat are amusing
and as many of them come from men
who assisted in preparing Jim for
his fight with Johnson it is only nat
ural that they should try TO protect
themselves as far as possible.
Richmond planet. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1883-1938, 1910-08-06
LOT OF NEEDLESS ADVICE.

Can any one conceive Of those fel-
lows in Jim's corner-and won't
mention any names-teIling him how
to fight? Wasn't he the champion.
and didn't he lick every man who
sought to tell him how to lick John
SOM On the face OF it, it sure looks
as II Jen knew how TO fight better
than the men he had licked.
If Jeffries had not been listening
TO the advice that was hollered at
him he wouldn't have taken SO many
punches either, for he fought like an
amateur turning his head every time
piece of advice was shouted at
him.
Every time Corbett and the rest
of the wise ones in his corner yelled
at Johnson, all Jack did was to step
back out OF range, and then make
some tantalizing reply. l tell you, for
experts, those wise fellows in JEFF
fries corner did more TO hurt him
than Johnson"

STRONG IN DRESSING ROOM.

II guess / was one OF the first TO
see that his body was a good deal
hotter than IL ought TO be for a fellow
who was In grand shape. That was
the nervousness, and il increased
steadily until the bell rang for the
men 10 start lighting"
Armstrong said that Jeffries was
as strong as ever in his dressing room
before the fight. and roughed his
trainers about as unceremoniously
he ever did. IL was the tumultuous
reception that was accorded him as
he made his way TO the ringside aud
the deafening roar that greeted him
when he climbed through the ropes
that completely unstrung the former
champion and made him easy prey
Tor Johnson. according to Arm
strong's belief.
And you might mention also that
that kidding in Jenries' corner did
1ot do him any good, either. Say
from me that there were altogether
too many people in Jeffries' corner
who wanted TO get into the pictures.
instead of trying to calm their man.
Put IL as plainly as you want to
that 1 think Jeffries got too much ad-
vice and from too many sources. In
stead OF rafting Johnson. the kidding
ratified Jeh and he would have been
better on by a good deal If he mad
had less advice and few advisers and

light.

CONSTANTLY TOLD OF RESPON.
SIBILITY.

How did Jeffries' nervous breaK-
down come about2 Simple enough.
You know. Jeffries is not much OF a
fellow for talking about himself or
giving public exhibitions. and when
he began training I'm earnest tons of
letters and kilograms began to pour
an upon him, telling him of the trust
the white race placed in him and Of
his friends stalking their last dollar
on him 20 win.
''Jen was never up against exactly
that sort Of thing before. and nat
urally IL preyed on his mind Il was
not until the last couple of months
of his training that l first began 20
cake notice OF his nervousness
Mind you, IL was not the fact that
ne was going 10 fight Johnson that
worried him. 1t was the everlasting
crowd OF sightseers that crowded his
camp. AS the time of the fight drew
nearer these people jammed the gym
nasium daily. hoping TO get a chance
20 sec Jen do some boxing. and /
want 10 say right now that IL the
white people, his friends. had kept
away and let him train as he wanted
10 there would have been no nervous.
ness and fewer fishing trips.
1t happened day after day that
he had planned 10 DO some boxing.
and when he would come in from
his road work be would ask Choyn-
ski, Jack. Jefries. Farmer Burns.
and myself 10 get ready. but when
he saw the crowds he would change
his mind and 20 fishing instead.
Don't you ever believe that IL was
lack OF condition or lack OF boxing
exercise that beat Jefries. He was in
as grand physical condition when he
stepped into that ring az Reno as
ever saw a man. He was awfuIy
nervous though. and had been for
three OF four days before the fight.

UPHELD
BY 'POLICE JUDGE
Exonerated From Blame on Ross
Charges and May Now Use
Force in Raids.

A new era of things commenced yes
terday morning for the police depart.
ment and much of the old fogeyism
which has rested heavily on police con.
sciences has been dispelled. Police Of
ficers may now enforce the law without
danger of a law or criminal suit being
brought against them by the poor vic
tins of their temerity.
Special Officer John Kellett and the
other members of the special staff who
were accused by Ben Ross, convicted
gambler, of beating him up and rob
bling him demanded hearing before
Judge Lymer yesterday morning in the
police court. Ross had his tale on rec.
ord, how they seized him, beat him
about the face and finally stole $40 or
so from him before bringing him to
the police station.
The officers proved conclusively that
the only blows which Ross received
were once when Officer Kamauoha
struck him across the face with his
wrist while wearing automobile gaunt-
lets and once when he was struck over
the knuckles with a club to make him
give up the four phoney dice he was
trying to conceal.
After the officers had told their col.
Jective stories, the court exonerated
them to the fullest degree and stated
that they were justified in using all
that force and more if necessary in
forcing prisoners to surrender evidence,
and particularly when the evidence was
so convincing as was that which Ross
was trying to conceal.
Judge Lymer took cOgnizanee of a
section of the revised laws which states
that any officer can use all the force
justifiable in making a prisoner who is
trying to escape or fight the officers,
submit. Heretofore three or four of the
uniformed police have been arrested by
persons who claimed they were beaten
up while in custody, although it was
proved in court that they were them
selves refractory. Judge Andrade re-
peatedly warned the officers not to use
force and gave extra consideration to
the cases mentioned.
Ross, however, has not heard the last
of the little scrap in which he claims
he was sadly mistreated. He was re-
arrested yesterday morning by the off
GERS of the special staff on a warrant
charging him with conducting a bunco
game, taking official cognizance of the |
phoney dice which were found in his
possession. There is special section
in the revised laws against the use of
these little instruments and as Judge
Lymer has now been informed of the
record of the gentleman, conviction
will probably bring higher penalty
than the SO which Ross and his com
patriots were fined the day before for
gambling.

KING MAY
LOSE HIS THRONE
Unrest Due TO High Cost of
Living and Oppression Of
Land Owners.

ROME, November o. The revolu.
tionary activity is developing so rapidly
throughout Italy that there is fear that
King Emmanuel may suffer the same
fate as King Manuel of Portugal. The
spirit of unrest which prevails is due
to the high cost Of living and to the
oppression of great landowners, and
partly to the success of tho revolution
lists in Portugal. Foodstuffs are so
high that hundreds of families are on
the verge of starvation.
The situation has been rendered more
serious here owing to the restriction
which has been placed upon Italian inn
migration by the United States. Some
few years ago the most useless and
helpless portions of the population of
Italy, especially of the southern and
western parts of the country, were
shipped out of the kingdom by their
friends, who generally succeeded in get.
ting together money enough to pay
their passage, in steerage, to the land
of the free and the home of the brave
But the restrictive immigration laws
now in force in the United States are
shutting out the undesirable classes of
Italians, with the result that this part
of the population is growing rapidly,
while the oppression of the upper
classes, in that part of the country
where the greatest ignorance exists, is
increasing the feeling of discomfort
existing here.
In addition to all this, anarchists and
republicans are tanning the spirit of
unrest which prevails throughout all
southern italy. Returning Italians
from the United States now, instead
of acting as a safety valve upon soclo
logical conditions in Italy, by taking
out of the country the helpless and the
very poor, are tending to increase the
difficulties of the government by stir
ring up a spirit of discomfort in those
who are now shut out from the United
States and are unable to see any future
at home.
