I had quite a ralk with him just before he look the train and he seems to think there k nothing to it but the shouting. Jack Grace, the veteran gl.be-rotter, accompanied him 10 the big city as q sort of guide and guardian. Flynn says that after he disposes of Morris he will ask Al Kaufman t0 again en- ter the ring. "I want to do this be- cause Kaufman has expressed the opinion since l defeated him that if ill condition he would reverse that battle. I'll give him all the time he wants and then I will do the same trick l did a. Kansas City. There's only one way to convince these lel- lows and that's to trim them for the second time"
 Flynn expressed himself to me, saying that he expected to do most of his fighting in New York from now on. The big city has let the bars down, and there is more money there than anywhere else in the land l will stick while the sticking is g.od," he says. You have to go where the big money is if you want 10 get a slice of it, and that's why am z ing to New York. l expect to beat Morris. which will make me a good card. l am going to fight any of the heavy-weights that can draw a Il use.

ALLEGED STOCK SW|NDLER WILL
 PUT UP FIGHT

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. IL - Dr. J Inn Grant Lyman, considered by the postal detectives the prince of wildcat promoters" arrested by Pos ral Inspectors Madeira and Morse on charges of uSeing the mails to de- fraud, in exploiting the Panama De velopment company. was brought be-
 fore United States Commissioner Wright Brown for a hearing today The debonair promoter. who has had previous experience with the Federal authorities in connection with his alleged fraudulent stock schemes, through which he is
 said 10 have amassed a fortune. pleaded with the commissioner for time to arrange his affairs. which he said meant thousands of dollars to him. Brown postponed the hearing until Wednesday and bail was fixed
 at $2.3oo, on recommendation of As
 sitant United States District Attor- ney Ben Mckinley.
 As Lyman is charged with defraud- ing scores of Los Angeles investors out of $30,000 and at the time of his arrest on Friday was preparing to flee from this city. it is believed
 in Federal circles here that the Southern authorities will telegraph today requesting that Lyman's bail be materially increased.
 The suave doctor would not con- sent to any interviews today and has lost much of the bravado he showed when arrested. He announced in court today that he will be rep resented by counsel at Wednesdays hearing, indicating that he will fight removal to Los Angeles.

WILL TAKE MORE CHANCES

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S,-'I am be 2inning to think says a football eX- pert. that the war cry of the com ing seas.n will be: Take a chance. There k tendency on the part of the more advanced coaches to teach their men 10 pick up a loose ball. rather than fall on it. The principal difficulty lies in teaching the candi- dates to keep their feet out of the way l am told that Frank Hinkey has joined the progressives on this issue. and his 0. K in a matter of this kind carries great deal of weight. The old order changes slow ly. for men who have learned foot ball under the old regime are incln- ed to fight shy of novelties. but change it must, and the new coach ing on he ball is an encouraging sign Those of the rule makers who are at the same time active coaches ard who refused to make any radi-
  cal changes in the playing code. are in duty bound to develop the game, even at the cost of taking risks.
 In modern football the method of md play has changed markedly. What is known as the smashing end is the delight of the coaches nowadays. Much of what used to be considered end play has developed upon the tackles. for the up-todate coaches are playing their ends close in, and send ing them in fast to hurry the play f the opponents. l think Princeton will have to come around to the new method if the Tigers are to show progress in defense this year. Nassau has been conservative so far in end play, sticking to the old method of the waiting man. This system was eff fectiVe when the defensive halfbacks played inside the ends of the line, but with the spreading of the sec ondary defense the end can be used across the attack, saving the back to spill and play between his end of the line and the side line That way progress lies"

FR|SCO'S CHIEF OF POLICE TAXES
 HAND IN THINGS

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept II - The re,urren, feat Of standing the po- lice department of San Francisco on its head is being performed to- day by Chief Augustus White with the rf,-like reality that has thrown ,onsternaIiou into the tenderloin and uuhappiness into the administration.
 White has apparently broken away from the powers behind" and has undertaken tD prove that he is real ly possessed of authority which the charter conters upon his office
 Calraiu Thomas Duke is back again at the head of the central D lice district and the lid is on tight
 l. k only a minor consideration that several other captains have been shifted about to other stations
 The real point is that Duke is back at Central That means no more dancing in the uptown cafes. no more music after o'clock in the Barbary Coast dives and no gambling in the tenderloin or Chinatown.
 Nobody know where he is at" today. and that is a bad situation for a liberal" administration two weeks befare the primary election. The question that has been running through the underworld since last night is, Where do wez stand 9" Somebody has been double-cr5ssed and White seems to be the owner of the double K
 Mayor P II. Mccarthy says he does not know what il is all about Little Joe" Sullivan surface boss of the department cannot be found to tell whether he knows or not. and Chief White will not explain the meaning of the shift of half a dozen ? lice captains.
 The situation would be funny if the administration and the dive keepers had sense of humor Here was chief of police who was put into office for the particular purpose of being liberal" and taking orders obediently from tha tenderloin forces in return for the many good votes that will be cast at the primary election.
 And now that same chief ups and says he is the boss of the department and he is going to run it to suit himself. The administration may not dare oust him from office be cause of the noisome scandal that would follow just on the eve of the primaries

No Strings on Duke.

T am here to enforce the law" says Duke, and l am going to do it 10 the best of my ability. That means the enforcement of all the laws and regulations of the depart ment."
 He was uncertain whether the po- lice regulations prohibiting dancing in the uptown tenderloin was still on the books. After consultation with Chief White he learned that it was, and at once announced that there will be no more dancing on Mason and Eddy streets. There will be no more after-hour music on the Coast and the gamblers will no longer have an easy time in his district.
 It is too early yet to talk of the changes of policemen in the central district who were appointed by Cap tain Kelly at the behest of the Me DOnOugh Brothers and the bosses of the underworld. That may be some thing which White refers to "a few days from now" The detective force which was assembled when Sey- mour was busted may be reorganiz- ed. It is now filled with men who are doing politics for the administra- tion instead of police duty.

Whites Conscience.

White has nothing to say about rhe meaning of his actions. But the explanation that finds widest belief is that he is afflicted with a con science He went in as a program chief ro follow orders. but evidently did uot know just what program fer a liberal" administration meant Re. gently he has had some of his pri- yare friends examine into the con ditious in the city and what he learned was to- strong for his sense of deccucy.
 Captain James Kelly. who goes fir m th. Central to the Mission station. first consulted ,he real DOW ,r~ before he obeyed the chiefs ord els White taxed him with il and told him that he was the chief ot police
 "Ws1. KelIy's reply is said to have been. you're h-l of chief :"
 Now White has taken things into his own hands
 The speculation about police head quarters this morning was about the uex, chief and how soon he will Till The position. T. was accepted as fpreg he conclusion that there will be a new chief. but how soon was the question Will the admins trati F dare to oust White al once and precipitate the political ruin that would follow should White come out and say that the deal was [ 0 raw even for him?
 Kelly Next Chief.
 Already the talk is shaping around the chances of Captain James Kelly going into the chiefs chair He has run ths Central district as Jerry Hassity and the tcnderloin have liked best and would make a sery- iceable chief fir those who want to see their orders obeyed The tender loin, which has before been offended al Mayor Mccarthy because he did n.t dare give it all il demanded, may be kept into political line on the promise that the town will be ,hroWn wide open after the election
 If Rolph is elected al the primar- ies, White will nGt last long in his uo'itior according 10 rumor. And by the same rep r Captan Kelly will go in for the few remaining months before January N for the final great cleanup of easy money by the dive keepers and the gamblers under a liberal regime
 Incidentally the other captains whc were shifted were Captain NJ. o. Anderson from the Park to the In- eleside station; Captain Berand Me Manus from Ineleside 10 the Park station. and Captain Patrick Shea fr m the Mission 10 the Southern station

Wait, Says White.

The next move is up 10 the admin istration. White was as reticent as usual this morning. but he intimated that there may be more changes yet to come
 Wait until tonight" he said, Wait few days and you may know the meaning of these changes"
 Further than that he would not say
 Mayor P. H. Mccarthy this morn ing denied any previous knowledge of the shifting of captains The charter. he explained at length gives the chief of police the power to change his men around whenever he may see fiji, and His Liberalty pre- sumed that this move of Whites was for the best interests of the depart ment.' He said he had had no three hours conference with White on the subject. as was reported
 T know no more about the mean ing of these changes than you do. and do not know what significance could be attached to them"
 His honors attempt to make light of the situation was very apparent But the shift is a weighty proposi- tiOn for the tenderloin Duke. who is the only man that always come back" is in charge again at the central station. He comes in from the goat hills of the Potrero to the same position to which he held un- der Chief Seymour, and the former chiefs arrangement of the depart ment is vindicated by the new dispo- sition of the captains.
