SAY JEFF IS
WILLING FOR

San Francisco, July 26:-Some
curious stories are coming out of
Los Angeles, showing that Jeffries in
recovering his nerve after his defeat
at Reno is actually considering a re-
match with Johnson. Promo
ter Tex Richard has been with jeff

hunting and fishing expedition on
Catalina Island. jeff caught many
fish, and coming back he laughed
laughed and chatted for the first
time since his crushing defeat.
When asked to explain his poor
showing in the recent battle, he
said: ''There was something the mat
ter with me. They sure did some
thing to me, and 1t will all come out
in time"
jeff wouldn't say any more, and
he wouldn't talk about a return
match, but boatmen and others who
have heard him talk say he is very
SORE over his defeat and eager to
show that If In shape the negro's
blows wouldn't have bothered him.
Mrs. Jeffries is said to be opposed to
Jeff returning to the ring, but her in
fuence will not count against the
big coin inducements that Tex Rick

pull off another fight in Reno, and
he estimates he could duplicate the
recent crowd, If JEFF vas shown to
be in shape.

MURPHY WILL
FIGHT ATTELL
NEXT MONTH

San Francisco. Cal, July 26:-
Promoter Jim Coffroth has practically
signed up Harlem Tommy Murphy
and Abe Attell to box twenty
rounds here next month. Attell al
lows Murphy to weigh in at 1873
pounds ringside. which is waving
about eight or ten pounds.
AttelI is said to be eager to fight
Murphy or Moran Or Wolgast, as
there are no men in his own class
who are his equals. Abe is confident
he can annex the lightweight cham
pionship If he can ever mix things
with Wolgast.
Coffroth thought he had the At
tell Wolgast match all framed up,
but Manager Jones actually demand
ed $4,000, win, lose or draw, for
WoIgast for ten rounds, and $4,000
guarantee for twenty rounds. SO
Coffroth promptly dropped the
Murphy. 1t Is expected Murphy will
leave New York In a few days and
will train at San Rafael.

Those Of the fans that braved the
scorching rays of old Sol and came
out Sunday are the true kind that
help to put snap and ginger In a
game. If the league continues next
year, as 1t will under the by laws
adopted last night, the next series
of games will be played at grounds
where a cover can be procured for
the grandstand. The organization
considers 1t too late to make any
such move this season.
The Franklins practiced up a bit
Sunday afternoon, at the expense of
the Alerts at Atlantic Highlands, and

The "go" was for a $40 side bet

to go six rounds and that the fresh

D0WNED BY
PRINCE TON ATHLETICS
DENIES THAT
HEASkED FOR
A BIG BONUS

Seattle, Wash, July 26:-Tommy
Burns, who is here, declares the
story that he demanded $4,000
more than the original amount
agreed on to fight Sam Langford, is
untrue. Burns said:
when Mcintosh was dickering
with me in Reno for a return fight
with Johnson, l stipulated for thirty
five per cent, figuring Johnson, as
champion, would get forty per cent.
Then, when Mcintosh switched to
Sam Langford, / demanded forty
per cent, as I figured that In such
a match I would be a drawing card
and entitled to the largest percent
age. No fixed purse vas ever men
toned, only percentage Of gross re-
ceipts."

In The Ring

"Jeffries wasn't properly trained"
says Bob FitZsimmons. He should
have had three or four real fights
before tackling Johnson, and then
he would have been ready. His lack
of boxing practice was a fatal weak
ness. He didn't know how to fight
the negro and seemed to forget ev-
erything as soon as the first three or
four rounds were over He wasn't
the Jeffries that beat me twice and
he surprised me as soon as / saw
him put up his hands. Richard
should have disqualified JEFF the mo-
ment his seconds got into the ring"
Langford says he will tip the beam
at ITO pounds when he meets Kauf-
mar in Philadelphia in a six-round
battle on August 10. Kaufman
will scale at 215. The promoters of
this affair say 10000 persons will
e it because of the reasonable
prices of admission to Shibe Park.
They also declare there will be no
interference on the part Of the au-
thorities.
II Jack Johnson will agree to box
the winner OF the Langford-Kauf-
man affair, 1t is said he can draw
down $4,000 from the Philadelphia
promoters who are ready to stage
the bout on Labor Day In the open
air. Johnson, by the way, will sail
for Europe in September TO be gone

HH
The manner in which the st.
Anthonys put away the second team
of the Tottenville A. c. Saturday
afternoon, was admirable, to say
the least. 1t was a close contest, as
the score Of 6 to 8 indicates, but the
Saints showed superiority in most
instances.
Danny Mulherin's portrayal of
the Merkle act in Sundays game be-
tween the Nationals and Lyceum F.
G. caused both CONSERVATION and
amusement. According to Waters
friend, Waldron, our eccentric Dan
was out in the ninth because, the
Jump alleges he sneaked in on a
fly. Manager Waters was just going
to take a swat at the sphere, when
all his chances vanished.
Fish seem to be taking the hook
