he approached Weinert and why he
approached him. The public is gen.
orally the one to decide such affairs
and Weinert doesn't stand half as
well with the public today as he did

Weinert crowd is inclined to blame
eme for the whole affair. Well, / am
glad ! happened to be in a position
TO expose a fake fight, and / am not
worrying over what Weinert or his
friends think about it.

Weinert fights Jim Eoffey tonight
at Philadelphia, and a victory would
give him added prestige in his pro-
fession. Coffey isn't a wonder, by
any means, but he has received
enough attention to be worth while
beating. Besides, it Weinert is good
enough to score over Coffey he is good
enough to meet any of the topnotch-
ers. The fight tonight will mean
much to the Butcher Boy
