BAN PRAKC19CO. July 2.-Th re
Ailt of the championship battle b
tween Jeffrlffa and ISiSmon li pro-
lllle of widcapread dlacuaalun.. The
ory circulated to the effect Uiat tha
fight waa a prearranged affair haa en
raged the champion and frenaled Flu
almmona to the point of bursting Into
tears and fainting.
Mayor UohnilU Is weighing the at-
kged M4'no in the ewe and Intl-
mUng that will end prlxe-flghling
her !f he flnda elrcunmianrea bettr
out the charges tht the flht waa a
fake.
FHaxinimona la badly hurt. The ter
rific body blow that he received ha"
affected his hfart.
"I wa beaten fairly and am badly
hurt.' said Pltsalmmona tiidav.
"The atriry that I failed to flgttt Is
a .He."
Thaw who claim the outcome of the
light waa prearranged base their al
legations principally on the fact that
FUarfmmnna, after waging a master
ful and te.-rtWe battle dropped hi
guard, leaving an opening which Jef-
nea took advantage of. Fltislmmons
In!, however, that thla waa not
done Intentionally. He waa fighting
all the time and the severe punishment
told on him at last. Delaney, Egan,
George Slier, Lou Houseman. Alex
Oreggalna. Sam Thai I and some others
are loud in their denunciation of the
story that the battle wa a fake. They
say thit the prophesying of the re
stilt and final round whUih was sent
In a sealed note to the mayor" waa a
coincidence, and that hundreds bf
ananymou letters suggesting parallel
outcomes are extant.
When Jeffries wis seen tola face
was a sight. His eyes were puffed
out and discolored and his cfteeks were
cut and bruised.
"Do I look Ilk a faker " he re
mnrked. "If I was going to be a party U a
fake I would not have opied all of
those blows with this face of mine.
Anybody who say that the fight was
crooked Is liar."
Secretary Harrington, of the San
Francisco Athletic Club, made the fol
lowing financial statement:
Total receipts were IM.SSO; "seventy
per cent goes to the contestants J22,
3I; sixty per cent of the seventy goes
to Jeffries-llS.SS?, and forty per cent
of the seventy to Pltxmmona IS896.
All th money was paid over this
morning.
REFEREE GRANETf'S OPINION.
Saya Fight Was aa Near Perfection
aa On Could Be.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 26,-Now
that the Jeffriea-Fltsflimmona fight for
th world s championship la over, th
cry of fak " has been raised, though
without Justification In the opinion of
Referee Graney, George Slier and the
sreat majority of other sporting men
who wltnesed the contest. A com
munication sent to Mayor Schmita be
fore the fight, not to be opened until
after It was ended, stated that the
writer had been Informed that Jeffries
was to win In the eighth round, which
he did. The mayor has stated that If
the charge that th contest was a pre
arranged affair cannot be dlroved,
he will be compelled to prohibit such
exhibitions hereafter. Referee Graney
says: '
" I think the contest was legitimate.
from a retiree's standpoint the fight
waa as near perfect as a tight could
be. . There was no fouls not even a
resemblance of a foul. I had to .cau
tion them once, but this waa not for
anything that either did to the other,
but for their bumping Into me. It waa
the gr;atest fight I ever saw and I
doubt ilf ther will ever be another
like It."
" It is absolutely ridiculous to talk of
th fight being a fake," atd William
Delaney. " Ther never- was a fight
In whli'h ther w lo reason to
doubt thai It was b:ing fought on the
tiuare." ..;:''.( .
Jeffrie said: "Of course 4Jie fight
was on ' the square, Fltwlrnmons
fought a bard fight,: th gamest I aver
saw. He worked bard alt the time and
wben I got In the double blow on him
he was taken off hJa guard. After I
had my ey cut Daney told me to
start In and flntnh lm, for fear that
I would be blinded and would be un
able to keep on fighting." '
Fltislmmons I socially emphatic In
his sxtertlon that U was a hard-fought,
leglllmate battle,
George Slier wrote of the fight that
" Boto Fltaslmmons, although beaten
proved conclusively that be la or
rather was the greatest fighter that
ever stepped Into an American prise
ring."
The Chronicle "this morning says:
" There wm no taint or suspicion com
ing from any quarter that the contest
was not entliely fair and square and
tb best man wo'n.i Surely no other
encounter of tb W"" ever waged com
bined ail tb gd Qualities of that
fought last night."'
The Call says: "For seven rounds

mund Sempls, who before her marriage
a year ago was Miss Louhse Ruther
ford, of Brooklyn, haa been set upon,
says a Paris dlspawh to the World,
by two hunger-maddened great dane
dogs, which had been secured to guard
her husband's country house at An
neccy lake, and so terribly injured
that she di-d two hour after the ac
cident. M. Bempls is a prominent -business
msn In Paris. His home Is at An
neccy lake, an Isolated spot. Follow
ing a recent attempt by burglars to
enter the place, he purchased two
powerful great danes as guards.
The dogs proved so ferocious that
they were confined In an iron Incis
ure during the day for me protection
of the family. M. Sempis was advised
to starve them ,so when food was
given to them they would remember
their benefactors. So they had noth
ing to eat for two days.
Mme. Scmpls did not accompany
her . husband and their guest who
ftarted for a drive. She noticed the
dogs while ehe was walking in the yard
ana knowing they had been without
food she determined to feed them, aa
they were apparently quiet.
i tie instant Mme. 6empfs entered
the Iron inclosure the great danes
leaped upon her like hungry tigers.
They bore her to the ground and as
she vainly sought to defend herself
heir teeth sank in her arms and body.
Her struggle sappare.itly maddened the
animals the more.
The coachman heard the screams of
Mme. Sempls. She begged the man to
save her. He ran Into the stable for a
pitchfork. When he returned the great
danes had fearfully torn their victim.
The coachman fought the brutes In
to a corner and kept them there un
til the cook summoned neighbors and
carried Mme. Sempls from the Inclos
ure In a dying condition. .
A few minutes after M. Sempls and
his guets returned she succumbed to
her injuries after exchanging a few
words with her husband, who is near
ly cratfd by the terrible accident.
