EFFORT TO

Little, Johnson's Manager,
Files Suit Against
Him.
(By United Press Leased Wire)

(By United Press Leased Wire)
SAN FRANCISCO, June 10
That another effort to stop the big
battle between Jeffries and John
son may take place, this time back
ed by one of the men intimately
connected with the fight, was learn
ed today, when it became known
that George Little, former manager
for Jack Johnson, had asked an
attorney here to prepare a suit re-
straining the principals or their
hackers from collecting any of the
money taken in at any fight par
ticipated in by Johnson.
Little's contemplated suit is d.
rected against Johnson, Jeffries,
Berger, Rickard, Gleason and Tim
Othy d. Sullivan of New York, the
stakeholder for the big fight. At
torney Henry Ach prepared the pa
pers in the suit, but they have not
been filed, and Ach has withdrawn
from the case on the grounds that
he has no time to handle it further.
The trouble started when John
son discharged Little Sunday. Lit
tie took his contract to Ach and
said he wanted to collect the money
due him. Ach considered the mat
ter and advised Little that the best
methods of procedure was to file a
suit restraining all interested per-
sons from collecting money taken
in at any fight in which Johnson
participated, until the remaining
money due Little has been paid.
Separate suit will probably be filed
against Johnson. seeking to collect
the money alleged by Little to be
due,

a few differences The first is that
Stonewau jackson did not see the house

is that he did not order his corps 70

remarks. heroic or otherwise. Finally.
Il IS not probable that he ever heard Of
