gotiations between Gene Tunney and
Mrs. Katherine Fogarty, which threat
ened the champions second fight with
Jack Dempsey, have been brought to
light by the mayor of Hot Springs.
Mayor Leo p Mclaughlin, friend
of the retired heavyweight champion,
recalled some of the background of
Tunney's connections with Mrs. Fo-
garty when the divorce and former
wife of a Fort Worth, Tex. plumbing
contractor, sued Tunney for $500, 900
damages for alleged breach of promise
The mayor was city attorney of Hot
Springs and a practicing lawyer when
Tunney trained here several years ago,
and he said Tunney retained him as his
representative at a conference with
Mrs. Fogarty and Billy Gibson, the
champions manager in April, 1927 An
unsuccessful attempt was made to
placate the woman and arrange a set
Element with her. Mclaughlin said.
Mrs. Fogarty was adamant, the mayor
declared, and said she would not ac-
cept less than 100000. She said she
still loved Tunney and was willing to
marry him. and "she told us at that
time that she had turned over letters
and photographs which she said she
had. involving Tunney, to her attorneys
in the East" Mclaughlin related
Gibson told her that Gene did not
have that sum and that he would not
enter the ring again unless an agree
ment was reached, because he did not
wish to risk having his money tied UP,
the mayor said. Mclaughlin said Glib
son left after negotiations extending
over several days. saying that unless a
satisfactory settlement was made with
Mrs. Fogarty, Tunney and Dempsey
would not fight in Chicago.
Mclaughlin said he heard later that
q settlement was reached. While. rep
resenting Tunney at the conference
here he talked to the fighter by long
distance several times, he said. and
Tunney expressed disappointment over
the failure to settle the matter then
Mayor Mclaughlin said he had dis
missed the incidents from his mind
until a recent visit of John S. Fogarty.
