Thursday" said Richard today, but
am going ahead with my efforts to
find suitable place to stage the bout
here. I would like to bring it off at
the Madison Square Garden. Regard
less of the price I have orders on file
now for twenty-three ringside boxes.
Il have decided that the top price
for the best seats will be s25 each and
i intend making reservations so as to
protect patrons from spectators.
II clinched this match by positively
| threatening to bring Moran and Dill
lon together in this city for a purse
almost as large as the one I am put
ting up for Willard and Moran Will
lard is not CO ing east with Jones
next week but I will insist that the
champion shall train in this vicinity
for at least three weeks prior to March
IL I understand Moran is going to
begin training at Saratoga but he, too,
must finish his preparatory work
somewhere adjacent to this city"

MORE MONEY IN FIGHTING
THAN IN PLAYING BASEBALL

The unheard of amount of money
Willard and Moran are to receive
for their 10-rOund New York bout

no wonder For 80 minutes work,
these two pugs will receive more
money than Walter Johnson, iris

years work on the diamond. Here

His hair was red as a rusty pail.
