"I read the m tides and tho one serious objection to them was raised by Jeffries, who did not want to agreo not to light before tlio Fourth of July.

Jim Coffroth has mi nioro to do with the fight than Tom .MrCnrej' or 1'ugti Mcintosh, The con st Is to be held under the Mile nia.i.r.teiiicnr of Tex U'.ekard and myself. "Tho story that i double-crossed Coffroth In uny manner Is absolutely falfo and will bo denied by him. I did enter n Iild with Coffroth. Ho 'had made up his mind how much money he wanted to bid and w"o ngrced to that. At n late stage of the proceed ing almost at the time tho bids were opened, along camo ltlckard. He talk ed of what ho was going to do, ami 1 saw that he had big Ideas and that If I wanted to be In on the promoting end I must enter a bid with him. I did so, but he did not know what Coffroth was prepared to offer. 1 was on (ho square with Coffroth In tho matter, "Kor two weeks after I arrhed In Now York I did not seo Cnffnith. Then a meeting was suggested, and we got together on a, proposition. When ltlc kard arrived In New York, ho came to mo with u proposition. It was the biggest of nil submitted, mid I wauled to bo In. Ho I told Coffiotli, and ho agiecd 0n I could go ahead. Cif fiiilh know that I was bidding with lllckuid, and Tex knew about my bid with Jim. "Wo arranged to glvo tho lighters 100 per cent of the moving pictures lliOUt where the light will bu, held than 1.

(llcason says nlso that Jeffries wart ed a chance to light before the Four lb of July. According to Jeffries' prcsijit plans ho will reach here about the middle of January and proceed nt.onct to I.im Angeles, where ho will com mence light training. Asked about tho flory that Johnson has ilcmundcd two Judges in addition in tho referee, one of them to bu n eoloicil man, Cileason snld: "No such arrangement was made nccoidlng lo the articles, nnd It would not bo allowed.

What Is meant Is that you cin't get n reliable line on a pair or prospect he opponents by noting the way each of them has pcrformeil with the other men of their class.

Hut, as the student sas, trjlng ll "flguio" Is no crime, mid so tho good work of comparing past pcr formnnces and making deductions . goes right along. It Is evident, even thus early, thai there will be plenty of midnight nil burning over live Jeffrles-Johiuon prospect. The writer was piesent nt one gnbfcsi the other day when a Queeiisberry first-nighter remarked. ",lui,t think of the things Jack John i.oii would have done to Tom Shar key, yet Sharkey gave Jeffries more trouble than nil the lest." There's food for thought, all right. Bhnrkoy's two lights with Ienrles were certainly the bitterest experi ences of (the hnllcrmnkcr's enreer, and if. ns very many hold, Sharkey In his hcjdny was jm better than Tommy llurns, If Indeed quite ns good. It certainly seems ns though Iiihiivoii would huvo handled Shnr J.ey In a workman-like manner. V Never thought of thut," said one who listened, nnd fiom tho quiet that prevailed It looked as though with Sharkey us tho basts of are'ii nient the whole Jeffilcs-Jolinson (liiestlou had been kcttlcd months In idvuiiLo, "Hut hold mi" chipped In another. "Sharkey certainly made Jeffries ex tend lilmseir(lo the last ounce, but think or what l-'Itzslmmons did t Sharkey and of vvluit Jeffries did to I'itzslmmoiis."
