 Such is the prediction of the whole fighting world apparently It is shar- ed by fighters, trainers and sporting writers as they loiter about the hotels of Reno and the quarters of the prin- cipals, patiently awaiting Monday and the decision in the arena that day.
 Promoter Rickard had time today to answer numerous telegrams and to discuss many details of his prepara- tions with his subordinates. Most inn portant of these was the arrangement for transferring to Reno from San Francisco S30.000 of the purse money now on deposit in the coast city. Rick ard was asked by Tim Sullivan of New York, stakeholder, to attend to this at once, and the funds will be in Reno bank tomorrow According to his telegram today. Sullivan expects to arrive on July |
 Rickard and Johnson were in con- ference for almost an hour at noon, when the champion had done his eight mile road walk. Both said the sub Ject under discussion was without di- rect bearing on the fight. but neither would say what was talked Of.
