Holds Out for 10000 and Fifty
Per Cent Guarantee Denies
Chicago story.

That Milwaukee, promoters aud Nate
Lewis, manager Of Charley White, have
either misunderstood or are misrepre.
senting conditions as regards what the
lightweight champion wants for a
match with White, IS the declaration
made by Willie Richie, says the San
Francisco Chronicle Of May 4.
Chicago dispatches were to the effect
that Richie wanted guarantee Of
$4,000, with the privilege Of forty per
cent, and that in addition he wanted a
part Of Whites perceINage set aside for
bis own particular benefit.
81 have made hut one proposition 10
Andrews, the Milwaukee promoter, =
said Richie. ~ told him that l would
take the match for guarantee Of &c.
900, with the privilege Of accepting
fifty per cent Of the gross receipts,
What White is 70 be paid is not a mat.
ter that concerns me so long as my
offer is accepted. At no time did
have an understanding with Andrews
that | would aecept the same terms as
for the Wolgast match, which included
the same guarantee with the privileges
u iofbN pdr cent OF the Iecelpto.
1t looks to me as If Nate Lewis
wants to work up sentiment against me
and in favor OF White. Harry Foley
did write Andrews that White was
lucky to have match with the cham
pion, and explaining how had to give
way on every point TO get the Wolgasi
match, but there was nothing said IN
the letter about our debating what
White was to receive.
81 am not attempting TO dominate
the situation, but merely following pre-
cedent. II Conroth could give me 9
guarantee Of $4,000 to meet Tommy
Murphy, with a privilege of fifty PEI
cent, IL Is not too much for me to ash
the same for q White match. VOL
CAST received guarantee of $10,00l
with the privilege Of fifty per cent fol
the Mandot bout in New Orleans. WheI
was matched with Wolgast he was Il
receive the first $4,000 and my shar'
was to be fifty per cent Of what wa
received after that. II has been com
mon custom for the champion to dictate
his own terms, and If the conditions ar
satisfactory / am willing to close TO
the White bout the minute the wor,
comes from Andrews. -
