Neveretheless, the assertion of loss will surprise all concerned cspecially in view of the fact that it was an- nounced after the battle that the re- receipts totalled $34,000. Notwithstand- ing this rosy report, Edward I Croll, attorney for the Aidrome A. C. which staged the contest, is today offering creditors thirty cents on the dollar. Some of the creditors have refused this [} L t D 3 5 28 : el e maRquioy CAMBRAY According to Mr. Croll, the Air- . drome A.

To the chagrin of A the Aidrome A. C., it was found that / exactly $800 was ieft for the club after / the principal bill had been paid. As PERONNE / the Airdrome A.

In ad- dition, the club js said to have been cited to appear before the New Jer- sey Boxing commission to explain the outrageously poor management of the bout. If the reported receipt of $34.000 is a correct statement, it is not difficult to trace the disposition of the money. The state tax-of 10 per cent. would amount to $3.00 and 20 per cent. of the re- mainder that went to Joe Lannin, the leassee -of the grounds, was $6.120. Leonard got $8,000 and Lewis $6,000 and the total paid out for the tax to Lannin and the fighters makes a total £ $23.520, leavinz a balance of $10,- ., leaving a balance of $10.480. De- ducting the $800 that the Airdrome club received leaves a balance of $9.- £80. Tt is not known how much Jack Curley received for acting as man- ager of the bout but if he got $9,- €80 he did very well indeed.
