stick to my statement that Donley
quit to Bobby Loughery. l don't think
Donley's booster knows how to read
well enough to tell whether his man
was beaten or not l also wish to say
something in regard to the Royal
Sport Letter" ] was a spectator at
the fight between Lewis and Boonton
and had a ringside seat. Lewis out
pointed Boonton and the foul work
they talk about was inf1ghting on
Lewiss part If THE Royal Sport"
had paid 50, instead of fifty cents for
a seat, he would have been able to dis
eliminate between fouling and might

Putting it up to Donley in an effort
to find out who is afraid to fight,
correspondent says:
]. P. N:
I have heard much talk in regards
to a Mickey Donley-Ban Lewis
bout, but it seems as if somebody is
yellow. | know that Lewis Is very
anxious to fight Donley, but who is
cravings it Mickey or his great"
manager, the honorable crap-shooter?
Now / think the Happy Rambler
Association and the Madison A. A.
would back Banty TO the limit, so
why don't Young Stanzo or the crap
shooter come forth with some of that
loose change and let us grab some
of it,
Before Banty knocked out McVeigh.
Donley was very anxious to fight
Banty. What's the trouble now,
Mickey? Are you afraid Lewis will
get another knockout to his credit?
Now come out and let's see who is
the better man, and stop all your
bluffing.
A SPORT OF THE HILL.

Banty Lewis, the boxer, seems to
have finally nailed Mickey Donley
right down to cases. Lewis, in let
ter to me, says that Donley refused to
fight him at the Olympic Club on Oc-
tober %. Here is the evidence:
J. p. N.
| was approached by the match
maker of the Olympic A. C. last night
i'm regards to a match with Donley at
that club next Wednesday, October
% His manager stood there and
heard the conversation and would not
accept the match for his man, Mickey
Donley.
| am willing to make 1876 pounds
rlngside for Donley. The manager of
Donley does not seem very anxious to
accept a bout with me. The reason I
am informing you is because Donley
stated to you | would not give him
match, and | want to right myself
with the public that ] am willing to
meet him any time, any place, at l2G
pounds ringside.
Hoping that Mickey Donley will not
find any more excuses and arrange a
bout with me as soon as possible,
otherwise l think he is not looking
for my game, | am, yours respectfully,
BANTY LEWIS.
From what ] know about Lewis, he
has always been willing to fight. That
is his game. Donley says he refused TO
box Banty at Troxler's not long ago
because he could not get large
enough purse. Lewis was satisfied
with the purse and was ready to box.
Donley wouldn't box. Only one con-
clusion is TO be drawn.
