after his battle with Jack johnson
may result in serious nervous break.
down.
Roger Cornell the trainer, who
witnessed the nervous collapse Of
JEFF just before the fight, has grave
apprehensions for the welfare of
the defeated man.
Jeffr es today is at the home of
his friend Dick Adams, at Oakland.
HIS wife and brother are planning to
take him to his southern California
ranch tonight.
JEFF suffered a mental and ner-
vous breakdown in the rub room,
said Corr Cll. "That was shortly af-
ter noon on the day of the fight. He
collapsed under strain. We were
puzzled what to do. We hoped for
the best. There was no turning
back at that stage. Jeffries was in
fine physical condition and it was
that which kept him going the If
teen rounds. He went into that
ring like dishrag with his strength
and mental powers gone. We
thought he might work out of it.
He shook his head in the ring, try
ing to get right but it was no use, 70
A local sport editor, who spent
two months in the Jeffries camps,
both at Rowardennan and Moana
Springs, said today:
"Jeffries has disposition and will
all his own and the free rein he ex-
ercised in training himself was not
in accordance with his own best
wishers. His trainers thought best
to coincide with him and this clearly
worked against the fatal test that
came so disastrously on the Fourth.
"The facts in a nutshell point to
Jim Jeffries being a beaten man be-
fore he crawled through the ropes
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1910-07-07

and his fight against Johnson was
only for the matter of putting It be-
fore the public that demanded it.
"The big fellows nerves went to
pieces at 1890 Monday afternoon,
as near as can be figured. He had
just returned from a stroll on The
road with Frank Gotch and had pro-
ceeded to his rub room to go under
massage by Roger Cornell. Gotch
had noticed the mental struggle be-
cause of the big fellows disinclina-
tion to talk. He was rational on the
outside but an old friend like Gotch
noticed the change the minute they
started out on the road.
"In the rubroom Jeff's nerves gave
way entirely. He shook like leaf,
Cornell said, and when he had
passed the first stages of the col
lapse he was as limp as a rag. Dave
Lewissohn, Jeff's Chicago friend.
tried to have the fight declared oft
but this was decided to be out Of
the question. The trainers that
knew also thought thht JEFF would
recover his strength shortly, and
they hoped for the best.
"At any rate JEFF was prepared
for the encounter, while Lewissohn
and others, having the information
wired East and tried to hedge on
their bets. The rest of the story has
been told. JEFF went into his dress
ing room at the arena and it was
there that his brother Jack discov-
cred his real condition.
"'What has happened to Jim?'
he whispered anxiously in Cornell's
ear He's as weak as cat
"Jeffries also was troubled men
tally. He refused to talk and his
assistants could not raise him from
the stupor that has given rise to the
rumor that he was doped.
There was certainly a marked
change in the man. The writer was
present when he was led into the
ring by his seconds and he appeared
for all the world as though he were
in a daze.
Jim Jeffries is such a curious in
dividual that his condition was not
so noticeable at the time but follow
ing the circumstances, it bears out
to remarkable degree the story of
his collapse"
Another prominent local sport
writer said:
James j. Jeffries is today shat
tered idol. You can go even further
than that with him. You can call
him theidol that has been beaten
trampled upon and disgraced for
ever. For every one man who offers
sympathy for jeff there are 1000
who rage and fume at his name.
1T seems to be the universal opin
ion that jeff deliberately quit, Bill
ly Delaney's old saying, He's bis
gutter is accepted by many as thu
answer for the defeat of JEFF"

ing he simply would take up his rod
and go. And If he got notion
that roadwork was what he needed.
he would go on the road and refuse
to box.
Several times 1 made up my mind
to quit him. Then l considered
that the public would say l was a
traitor, so stuck on.
But we knew he was in good
physical condition up to three days
before the fight. What happened to
him I can't describe any more than
to say he went into a state Of COM
plete nervous collapse.
Before the first round I went
over to Johnson's corner and looked
at his hands before he put his
gloves on. That was not my pur-
pose. I wanted to see if Johnson
was nervous. He was. When I
came back l said to Jeffries: JEFF,
you have that niger scared to
death. If you wade into him you
can lick him in one round
"But JEFF acted like a man who
did not hear what was being said to
him. If he had shown the slightest
symptom of aggressiveness when 7
told him that 1 would have thought
there was some hope for him but he
acted as if in a stupor.
81 knew how 1t was going and 1
did everything in yelling everything
I could think of at Johnson but
Jeff didn't have a punch that would
break an egg"

CORRECT STYLES IN GLOVES

The new gloves show a good many
innovations over products of a year
ago. Except for black costumes,
whero an all-black scheme is desired.
black gloves are little used. Plain
white gloves also are less in evidence
than for some time, tints having taken
their place. All the soft pastel shades
such as pigeon gray, fawn, biscuit and
champagne are especially popular
Just now suedes are liked far better
than glace kids. This is a whim of
the Parisiennes, who always go in for
the smartest fit for everything, and
suede certainly comes under that
class in the matter of gloves. With
the continued shortening of sleeves,
more 12-button lengths than any other
style are being sold White gloves
with black stitching are popular with
black and white combination cos

tailor-made broad four-row stitchings
