BOSTON, Sept. 22-Jack Johnson
last night declared his willingness to
accept the cabled offer of 100000
purse for a championship battle with
Sam Langford in London.

a $4,000 or a 100000 purse" said John
son, land 1 am ready to accept that
offer, but the purse must be posted
here in America. That much | will ex-
act now, so that Mcintosh and Lang
ford know where they are at before 1
do business. Mcintosh is o. K, but
some of those Englishmen do not come
UP to my idea of sportsmen.
my reason for insisting on the post
ing of the coin in this country Is that
want to put aside all chances of
temptation for certain Englishmen.
That purse is enticing, you know, and
there is no telling what might happen
over there if it were left where it could
be easily reached. If 1 win the bout

professional, in which Lawson will
contest with eight or ten other pro-

BOSTON AMERICAN STAR
JOINS GRAHAM'S C0TERIE

Ed Hearn, utility outf1elder Of the
Boston Americans, will probably be
seen in action with the Senators this
week, as he has been released to
recall. Hearn's batting eye will be of
splendid service to the also-rans, and
1t is possible that he will be tried out
in the infield as soon as his arm has
rounded into shape.
The Senators have been seizing ma
terial from every quarter and have
long passed the worlds record in the
drafting line. Almost a complete new
lineup has already secured slips from
Graham, and it is beginning to look
like the Senatorial boosters are pre-
pairing to start league of their own.

Nelson and Monte Dale were today
matched to fight ten rounds here on the
night of October 10. This bout will be
the first battle of the year for the
Grand Avenue Athletic club -.
Dale is a husky youngster who fought

Nelson is pleased with the opponent
selected for him. This is his first night
since he was defeated by Ad Wolgast,
and he is anxious to get a line on his
ability after a prolonged rest. The
fighters will not attempt to make the
limit. Nelson weighs l67
pounds, and he does not want to train
down too fine for a short fight. Dale is
at his best at 1876 pounds
