It was late in the afternoon when the great canopy covering the octagonal ring in which the battle took place was finally stretched. by the police and stragglers ejected. fore sundown long lines of anxious men formed on Vafencia street and Jullan ave- nue and awaited the opening of the two gates. There was no disorder unt{l 8 o'clock, when the crush became heavy, but 240 burly policemen marshaled. under Cliet Wimand handled t rowd well, The arc MNghts over the ring were turned on at 7:45 o'clock, by which time the bleachers, holding fully 5,000 ple, were fllled. The usual night fog did{not prevail, and a though the evening- alr chilly there was ho discomfort. “Kid" Egay, repre- senting the champion, Clark Ball for Fitz- simmons and Alex Greggalng for the San Francisco Athletic club inspected the promises at § o'clock and agreed that all was in readiness for the fight. The gates were opened at 8 o'clock and the ticket holders began to flock in. The “gallery”, consisted of a series of tiers, the last one resting agalnet the Improvised back wall or high board fence sloping down to the ground level. The occupants of these seats really were afforded the best view of all that occurred In the ring. At 7.30 o'clock. allery” was full and the doors leading to the more favored sections were opened and the sections immediately behind the box seats gradually filled up. A number of well known faces were among the early arrivals. George Siler occupled & seat In the press row at the ringelde, clode to Lou Houseman, the Chicago sport- ing writer. In one of the boxes to the west of the ring sat Mayor Bugene Schmitz, in oo pany with other city officials. Louls Ezol the racing man, sat pear Jack Ringling, the circus man, while B4 Rigner, Ed Kelly and Sid Herman occupled cholce seats. W. Wi Naughton, the sporting writer, came early, as did @lso Lew Hawki eran actor, and George Bonifa 3 Williams of Brooklyn, B4 Dunston of Chi- cago, James Morrisey and Frapk McGrath of Milwaukes and Willlam Carpenter Kemp. Mike Kennedy, Henry Harrison and Jules Markbright were other eas occupylng seats st _the ringside.

At 8:15 the crowd became dense. The alsles were congested and much confusion in seating ticket-holders ensued. These things were soon straightened out, -how- ever, and when the principals of the pre- liminary fight came on there was hardly a vacant place In all the 8,300 seats pro- vided. At 8:20 p. m. Fits arrived In a carrl at the entrance on Valencia stréet. He was cheered by the crowd that stood at the entrance. Fitzsimmons went imme- diately to his dressing tent at the right of the main entrance and proceeded to dress. He wi accompanied by his manager, Clark Ball, Hank Grifin, the colored pu- gilist, and ome or two friend The ex- champlon declared he never felt better and was confident he would be returned He was in a cheerful frame of mind and inquired about the crowd in attendance and other matters incident to the fight. About ten minutes later Jeffries drove up and got out of his carriage, followed by bis trainer, Billy Delaney; Joe Beck, his sparring partner, and.Ed Egan, his secre- tary. The crowd set up & terrific roar at the sight of the big fellow, to which he responded with a wave of the hand, Pro- teeding to his dressing tent, Jeffries im- mediately got ready to don his ring cos- tume. He was not in a talkative mood, but appeared calm and confident. He Inquired about the attendance and. expressed satl faction when told that the place was jammed. Little Betting Ringside, There was so little ringside betting that it was hardly appreciable. The odds were about the same that have prevalled the 10 to 4. only preliminary fight was put on. It was & twenty-round affair be- tween two local middleweights, Dave Barry and Harry Foley. There were a few heavily velled women noticeable among those seated Ir: the boxes. Thelr presence was passed over by the crowd without demonstration of disap- is usual In such cases. order and absence of any sort of confusion among the crowd was remark- able. By 9 vo'clock all the ticket holders were in their allotted spaces and mnot & vacant seat was visible from the ring. The blg audience presented an -unusual spectacle. Banked up agaidst the walls on al¥ sides there was a solid dark mass, sl ing down to & level with those In the boxes and other high priced seats. Scattered about the many aisles stood numerous policemen, but they had nothing to do, as the ushers had mastered the details of the seating Arrangems conducted the ticket holders to their places without confusion. Outside the big enclosure the wind blew a gale, but the temperature within was quite comfortable. The lights from the fourteen the ring gave the audience. These were the only lights within the enclosure. When asked in his dressing room bis welght, Fitssimmons replied sbout 168 or 160." He added that when Ie fought Jeffries at Coney Island he welghed 156 pounds. As Fitzsimmons has not welghed in the Dresence of any outsider recently, his exaet welght is problematical. Jeftries, according to Delaney, this after- neon welghed 216 pounds. The figures might bs stated at about 217 pounds at the ring- slds to Foley Knocks Out Barry. The preliminary fight was ended at 9:35 P, ®m. by Foley knocking out Barry in the eleventh. Immediately the erowd became impatient and there was a good deal of stirring about and visiting among the well known charaeters at the ringside. The ap- pearance of about & dosen women in one party caused s momentary flurry. They took seats in & box directly back of the press row. The makeup of the crowd was unusual. THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY There was absolutely perfect order. The bench and bar of San Francisco as well as other professional life was well represented. Large delegations from interior California cities, Including Los Angeles, Jeffries' home, Bakersville, Stockton and Fresno occupled large blocks of seats. The Los Angeles party was cspeclally large, among them be- ing many well known men from the south- ern part of the state. A conservative estimate of the amount realized from ticket sales places the sum at $36,000. After the preliminary there occurred & long wait, during which the crowd called to each other acroes the ring and shouted for the big men to come on. It was reported that Eddle Graney, who had been selected as refereo, wished to be pald $500 for bi services, while the managers thought $200 sufcient remuneration. Kid McFadden, the little fighter who Just returned from England, took advantage of the walt to get himself introduced as the champlon featherweight. The Kid's reception, however, was very chilly and he made his exit quickly. The crowd wanted nothing at this time but the big men. Fitzslmmons first took the northwestern corner, but a moment later moved to the northeast, and finally to the southeast corner. The champlon took the northwest. Corbett Sends Challenge. Jim Corbett sent a challenge to fight the winner. This was received with applause. A moment later the announcer stated t Sharkey sent a challenge and there was considerable hooting and jeering. The men finally changed corners, Fitz- simmons taking the northeast and Jeftries the southwest. Fitzsimmons wore bandages on both hands. Jeffries wore no bandages. Fitz- simmons took his stool and sat quietly chewing gum. He looked well, slightly older than when he last fought in San Francisco, but much the same otherwise. The announcer stated that the forfeit money had been returned to the principals and the club. Jeftries looked confident and sat in his corner chewing gum, while the little pre- liminary announcements were belng made. Fitzsimmons dobned his gloves, which wero a light maroon. Jeffries wore very dark red. Fight by Rounds. Round 1-They came quickly to the cen- ter.

Corea, in return, agrees to ralse its naval and military establishments to a footing sufficient for its own defense, and aleo in case of raising a forelgn loan it agrees to restrict itself to the markets of Great Britain, Japan and the United States. 1t further agrees that no foreigners shall be appolnted to positions In the Corean ato service, that measures shall be im- médiately taken for the protection of Corean territory, and that & protest shall immediately be made agalnst any state or persons attempting to erect works or buildings eituated so to prejudice Corea's scheme for natlonal defense: Much interest was manifested by Mr. Minhui Cho, the Corean minister, and by the Japanese legation officlals who are in Washington, in the anmouncement of the conclusion of an important agreement be- tween Great Britaln and Japan, pledging the independence of Corea and Involving' reciprocity concessions on the part of the’ Corean government.
