Michael Caldarrello is about 17 years of age, and works for his father at the ga- loon at 24 Third street. On the prison register he gave his age as 21 years and his occupation as a_bartender. He says that not knowing Mackay was a po- lice officer, he not being in_ uniform, he fired ore shot at him when he found the crowd entering the saloon. He said he expected’ that it was some of his uncle’s friends, who were trying to assault him. George, who is charged with two at- tempts fo commit murder, says he is studying the barber trade at a Howard- street “‘college,” and attends night school. Although but a year i nthe country, he has made rapid strides in English. He docs nct hesitate Lo admit that it was the family feud that caused him to attempt to slay; denies the story that his father or any one else offered him $30 to shoot his uncle. The second charge of assault'to murder against him is based on the shots he took at Officer Mackay while the latter was hunting for him in the saloon. Allington J. Smith, a lodging-house keeper at 111% Minna street, was also ar- rested in connection with the affair. He did not particlpate in the shooting, but when he heard the firing, thinking it was some labor trouble, with which airs he had experience during the strike, he placed his pistol in his pocket and filled another pocket with cartridges, but ran away when he found that shooting was going on. He was charged with carrying a concealed weapon. 14—In a hard-run | The dogs went o the slips at about even | | I E + FOR CONTEST HE HAS UNDERTAKEN Jeffries - Sends Two Thousand Dollars to Be Wagered Upon His.

JEFFRIES. will lead me to adopt one to suit the occasion. GUS RUHLIN. o e EFFRIES asserted yesterday tnat he could not lose his fight to-night with Ruhlin bécause of his condition, a dream and a lucky button. As to bis condition, Jim says he is in as good shape as when helowered the colors of Fitzsimmons. He claims he is'stronger, healthier, faster and can hit harder than ever before. As to the dream, in the early hours of yesterday morning the champion awakened, and finding it too early to arise, dozed oft again and dreamed ae was fighting Ruhlin and had beaten him in a round and 2 half. When he told this to some of his Los Angeles friends a number of them took the tip and went out and bet that Jeffries would win within five rounds, Jim says he dreams before every fight. Before both his battles with Sharkey he dreamed he was having an awful tussle with the marine and In both baiues his dream was realized. He dreamed also,that he had defeated Fitzsimmons and again his dream came true. It now remains to be seen whether ‘Jeffries’ latest fond dream will be realized. As stated in The Call a week ago, Jeffries always has a lucky cuff button in his belt when he fights. This button is the property of Sam Thall, the theatri- cal manager. It was the mascct of Corbett in all his fights but the one he had with Fitzsimmons. Jeffries wore it in every battle he has had within the past three years and he will wear it to-night. Thall went over to the training quar- ters yesterday and presented it to the champion. Jim laughingly received it and gave it to his brother Jack With the admonition that he bring it to the Pavilion 50 he could wear it in his belt. The cuff button is a simple one. It 1s made out of coin silver and has the initials of Sam Thall on it. The monogram, *§.

He rested in the afterneor With a number of friends he visited the racetrack and watched the ponies eun ter. He was the cynosure of all eves. Friends grasped the big fellow by the hand and wished him luck and asked him how he felt. To all questioners he sald o wae never better in his life. He certainly was the picture of health ag hg strode round the betting ring. His clothes were a trifle too large for him and this was an indication that he had trained down considerably. He fetired early. Jeffries will cross the bay this afternoon. He will go to Al Smith's house for dinner and later to the St. Nicholas Hotel, where he will rest an hour beface the fight. Jeff says he always sleeps before going to battle. He never ‘worries and sleeps on the night of a contest as if nothing was on his mind. Frequently his trainers have to shake him to arouse him. This rest is very beneficial to him. He is given a brisk rubdown and goes to the ring feeling refreshed. MOVING PICTURE MACHINE IS TESTED Lights Are Turned On and It Is Demonstrated That but Lit- tle Heat Will Be Generated by the Apparatus. The moving picture machine which is to be used in reproducing the champion- ship fight to-night was tested last even- ing and proved a success. Despite the fact that the elghty arc lamps of 2200 candle-power were suspended { over the ring no heat was felt by those who stood immediately under them. Manager Wiite of the Edison Company gromlaed there would be no heat and he kept his word. Among those who were present during the testing of the lights were Jack Jef- fries, representing the champion; “Billy" Madden, manager of Ruhlin, Harry Corbett and Managers Kennedy cérl:dbeleasun of the Twentieth Century ub. ¢ In order to test the photographing ma- chine “Billy” Leonard and SlmmygBer- ger, two clever Olympic Club boxer: Sparred a couple of rounds. The boys went to their work very fast and tKe spectators were treated to a good bout. A foot of film containing fifteen pictures was developed on the spot and found to be faultless. During the bout the entire Pavilion was in darkness, but the strong light over the ring made it possible for those a great distanice away to_watch every move of the contestants. Their bodies looked like marble. At the conclusion of the bout the Young men said they felt no heat. Madden found some fault with the ring. ‘| He thought it was too small. He said the [ & F Billy Madden’s prediction is not amiss there will be a new champion to- night. If Gus Ruhlin makes good his boast the husky boilermaker, who has heretofore pummeled and buffeted his way through all the human ob- stacles in the shape of aspirants for heavyweight honors that threatened to dim his star and put out his pugilistic light, will go down to defeat. If Gus Ruhlin was ever destined to have the strength, ability or luck to beat Jeffries, heavyweight champlon of the world, he is certainly in better shape to do it to- night than ever before. According to the statements of the physicians who have examined Ruhlin he will enter the ring at the highest point of his physical powers. Constant training and systematic methods have rounded Ruhlin into a counterpart of the Greecian warrior of ancient days. So good Is his present physical condition that he will scarcely be able to attain the same perfection again. During his pugilistic career Gus Ruhlin has had a complete ring experience. He has fought his way into the championship class. During that time the Akron idol has experienced every emotiom that falls to the lot of prizefighters from the exhilarating spirits of victory to bitter defeat. Some figure that after a man has once: been knocked out he is easier game to defeat than he would be if the point of his jaw had never been a cushion for the other man's best punch. There are other judges of the boxing game who claim that a fighter who has been sent to the mat for a longer period than the fatal ten seconds gets an experience that helps him wonderfully in future bat- tles, that is if he is not one of the class of fighting men who go to pieces after the first knockout. Ruhlin's record shows he is not in the latter category. An inspection of it also discloses the fact tthat Ruhlin fought his best battles with men who had previously beaten him. The sturdy sailor put Gus away once in one round and when Gus met Sharkey the second time he registered the first knock- out against the man who. gave Jeffries two of the hardest battles he ever fought. Ruhlin's performances show conclusively that he has profited by the several rocks he has had in the cradle of fistic sleep. When he fought Fitzsimmons Ruh- lin showed a commendable cunning when in distress. 1f it comes to a point where both Jeffries and Ruklin fight themselves into dizzy atmosphere at ths same time, on form the Akron giant should have a shade the better of it. That condition is prectically an unknown quantity to Jeffries, while Gus has often beea called upon to fight his hard-pressing opponent and the overpowering sensation Of grogginess at the same time.. When a, man gets a bit groggy his natural cun ning becomes a factor in his chances for victory or defeat. That is one time.in the course of A prizefight when the mental powers of a boxer are put to the test, Many a fighter has changed defeat into victory by showing good judgment and common sense when the nerve centers of the brain were deadened by a-punch. The champion has had none of this. It is quite & feather in Jeffries’ cap that he has not undergone the experience of having been put to sleep in a bout, but as long as an opponent has a pair of arms and an eyo and brain to direct them there is a chance—no matter how remote—of his being knocked out or punched into the grogey state. 1f Ruhlin should get Jeffries o this condition it is not likely the latter would be able to protect himself as we.} as Ruhlin would under the same conlitions, The correctness of this theory 1s one of the rays of hope upon which thuse Who are backing the short end depand. Ruhlin made yesterday a day of absolute rest. He lounged around his train- ing quarters. Gus’ usual good temper was ruffled by a drunken man who insisted on’ pestering him. He caught the Akion glant's hand, and upon being welcomed by Ruhlin, whe, by the way, did not know him, proceeded to pull an maul him around. Ruhlin became angry and when the man refused to desist he hit at hing but missed. Denver Ed Martin came to the rescue of Ruhlin's “pest Thie proved unnecessary, for the stranger lost no time in getting out of range.

BLUEFIELD, W. Va., Nov. M4.—Five dead bodies have been taken from the Baby mine at Pocahontas, Va. Several other persons are unaccounted for, and twenty-five persons have been rescued more or less severely hurt. At 3 ao’clock this morning it was dis- covered that the Baby mine of the Poca- hontas Company at Poecahontas, Va., was on fire. In a short time after the firemen teached the mine a terrific explosion oe- curred and many miners and their friends ‘Were more or less injured. It Is supposed that the mines caught fire from a defec~ tive electric light wire. Five bodles had been recovered up to 6 p. m., and it is uncertain how many more are dead. It is known that there are eight or ten men still in the mines. They may succeed in making their escape through the Tug River entrance. Twenty-five persons have been rescued, all more or less burned, some seriously and perhaps fatally. The injured were carried to their homes in wagons and the physicians in Pocahontas were busy all day attending the injured. One or two other explosions followed that of the early morning. The mine is still burning and clouds of smoke are con- stantly issuing from its mouth. The fan has been stopped, and as soon as possible to do so the mine will be re-entered witih the hope of extinguishing the fire.
