asserts that Wolgast and he could
draw $4,000 in Madison Square Garden

Thirty says that Tim Hurst. manager
of the garden, wired Wolgast an offer
of $4,000 to meet Mcfarland May 80 in
New York and offered Packey $4,000
to agree to that date. Thirty does not
think that Wolgast will agree to such

which he Is to get $4,000. the same
amount he would make in New York.

POLICE NOT TO STOP
PROTECTED BOXING IN CHICAGO

Chief of Police McWeeny yesterday
admitted that recent decisions handed
down by the states attorney and mu-
nicipal judges left him in doubt as to
his ability to stop boxing exhibitions
in Chicago. The admission was made
to Tommy White, who won a verdict in
the city court when he was released
from charges of prize fighting, being
arrested while boxing with Harry
Forbes both men wearing a mask and
protector.
White was in conference with the
city police head for several hours yes
terday. feeling out his chances of Civ
ing public sparring exhibitions where
the mask and protector is used, and
from the declaration of the chief White
thinks he can stage such things with
out interference. The former boxer is
of the opinion that the assertion of the
police head paves the way for stage
work in Chicago by such clever men as
Jack Johnson Packey Mcfarland and
Johnny Coulon.
ANY of the celebrities can spar in
public now" said White last night
THE decision of the states attorney
that he cannot prevent such affairs
leaves the police without anything to
stand upon, for they are not the prose
cutors. I can see no reason why the
worlds best boxers cannot sho where
now with perfect assurance that the
authorities will be nothing but inter
ested spectators.
| This is not a fitting of the lid in Chi
cago. but it is an opening wedge, in the
| opinion of followers of the game
| White says that the Forbes brothers
Harry and Clarence, will go on in ar
exhibition soon in another test case
