Both Fighters Are Confident of Vic

Paris, June 24.-Jack Johnson and Frank Moran, the American heavy weights, who fight for the champion ship here Saturday appear to be equally confident of victory. Johnson is so certain he will win he has $5,- 900 to place on his chances, but he has found no taker. Moran asserted today he was sure he would defeat Johnson.
 Both men today covered several miles on the road and engaged in bouts with training partners. Moran has received few visitors whiie John son is an object of interest to con. siderable crowds daily.
 So far there has been little betting on the result.

When the Vaterland was headed in
