every day and when he goes into the
ring with Ad Wolgast next Friday
night he will be as fit and ready as
scientific, conscientious work can
make. He is putting on the finishing
touches today and will knock off work
tomorrow. He is in such excellent
condition that even his closest friends
are much surprised and pleased. Mem
sic sees in this scrap an opportunity
to re-establish himself in popularity
with the fans and will win or go down
to defeat after a memorable effort.
Training Nearly Ends
Both boys are working hard and
each is supremely happy in the belief
that the match is something of a ben
eft for himself. Despite that Memsic
already has defeated him at this dis
tance, Wolgast seems to believe he
has grown so much better as a fighter
in recent weeks that he will not have
to extend himself to win. In this he
may be mistaken, so he will not neglect
training for the affair.
Another change was made in the
Friday night preliminary card yester-
day, when Arthur Collins declined the
match with Jack Tippetts, owing to
lack of time in which to get back into
training. This bout was called off
and Jimmie Burns and Gene McGovern
were substituted

STONE AND wife
ARE STILL IN JAIL
GUILT FOR SHIVELEY MURDER
AGAIN DENIED
as to Flaws in His Story
Are Met With No
Reply

Mr.. and Mrs. A. G. Stone, in whose
home at San Gabriel Morgan Shive-
ley, Pacific Electric conductor, re-
ceived wounds which resulted in his
death early Sunday morning, still are
held in the county Jail and no charges
have been filed against either of them.
Both Sheriff Hammel and Detective
Brown of the district attorneys office
worked all yesterday on the case and
took up every shred of evidence in
their possession.
I'VE are morally convinced who the
culprit is" said Sheriff Hammel yes
terday, but we must prove that the
person accused committed the. crime"
Searching examinations behind closed
doors We're conducted at the district
attorneys offices yesterday and Detec
tive Brown appeared well pleased with
the result, although no definite state
ment was given out. An investiga-
tion of the past life Of Mr.. and Mrs.
A. c.. Stone and Shiveley is being con-
Quoted, which, it is believed, win be
productive of results, although this
may take several. days.
Stone Confined Closely
Stone was confined closely yesterday,
no persons other than his attorneys
being allowed to interview him. He
still maintains an air of indifference,
although admitting that circumstances
point to him as the guilty party. Late
in the afternoon Stone made state
ment through one of his attorneys.
The man in whose home it is believed
his supposedly best friend met
frightful death still adheres to his
story that he believes MeXicans entered
the house early Sunday morning and
attacked Shiveley. When the weak
points of his statement We're pointed
out to him he simply replied: Il
know things look bad for me-"
In his statement delivered through
his attorneys yesterday, Stone said:
"On the night that this affair hap
pened my wife and I retired about 8
o'clock, leaving the lamp burning for
Shiveley as usual. Toward morning
we heard, practically at the same
time, a cry. of Help! Help' from
Shiveley. My wife and I got up inn
mediately and 1 started downstairs.
AS I neared the foot Of the stairs |
heard a crash of glass and turned back
to procure my revolver, which, in my
excitement, l had forgotten. l got
my gun, loaded the weapon, and came
down, firing a shot in the house. All
was quiet, although / found blood over
everything in the kitchen and the
floor was strewn with bits iof broken
glass.
