felt among the ranchers that crops

From The World of Thursday
Led by the United Societies OF Chris
tan EndeaYor, with 100000 mem
bers, and the International Associa.
ton Of Police Chiefs, movement is
on foot to prevent the exhibition OF
the pictures OF the Jeffries-Johnson
fight that promises to be international
in its scope.
The Christian Endeavor Society,
through its Boston headquarters, tele-
graphed yesterday TO the Governor OF
every State in the Union, asking that
the pictures be barred on the grounds
that they produce an Illegal act and
that their exhibition will be just as
illegal as the actual fight.
Secretary William Shaw yesterday
wired President Taft, Col. Theodore
Roosevelt and Governor Hughes ask
ing them to use their influence to pre-
vent the pictures from being exhibit
ed
He also sent TO Mayors and Gov
errors all over the United States the
following telegram:
Race riots and murders already
follow the announcement of Johnson's
victory. Moving pictures Of prize
fight will create more violence. Will
you join in appeal to authorities,
cities and towns to prohibit pictures,
as law provides? Help save our young
people from the demoralizing shows.

Honey Fitz," otherwise Mayor
Fitzgerald, OF Boston, replied 81 once
that Boston would see nothing of the
battle.
The American Vitagraph Company,
which owns the films of the fight is
believed To- have expended a quarter
of million dollars in purchasing the
exclusive rights ard in taking the pic
lures.
Jeffries was paid s66,666, while
Johnson got $4,000. Richard and
Gleason got "cut" and stin own one
sixth of the rights In addition, the
moving-picture concern spent q small
fortune perfecting machines for NAH
ing improved pictures, sending a score
of expert operators to Reno and in
other incidental expenses. The pic
ture people expected TO take in 81 000,-
coo during the first month the films
were on exhibition. This sum is sure
to be reduced materially if the agita-
ton against the production of the pic
lures continues to spread.
The race riots which followed John
sons victory over Jeffries in the fight
at Reno Monday resulted Tuesday al
movement in several cities to pro
hibit moving pictures Of the contest.
The Chief OF Police OF Washington an
nounced that he would issue an order
forbidding theaters to show the pic
lures. Marshal Farnan. OF Baltimore,
will request the Mayor to prohibit the
proposed exhibition of scenes in the
ring, and Mayor Schwab, of Cincin-
natl, announced unqualifiedly that he
would not allow the pictures TO be
shown in that city, -
