FRANCISCO CALL, WED “ AM READY TO FIGHT AT AN HOUR'S NOTICE"--C JEFFRIES WILL DEFEND HIS TITLE WHEN THE CALL TO ARMS SOUNDS S Wife of Champion Is an In- terested Spectator During His Gymnasium Work. SRSt Sl By F. E. Mulholland. HARBIN SPRINGS, June 7.—In ad- dition to the usual coterie of guests ere at the springs, Champion Jim Jefiries’ petite wife, becomingly at- tired in white lawn and silks, and Mrs. Delaney, wife of the big fellow’s man- Billy Delaney, were among the ators at the “gym” this morning. pexing was indulged in, but Jim rked like a Trojan on the different e and sinew developing appli- working furiously for more an hour and a half, he gargled s throat and sat down on the rowing hine for & brief breathing spell. welght is still a matter of ture ¥ His 1€ has been educed several inches d his limbs look clean cut d sym trical, he must tip the scales the hborhood of 225 pounds.

Nor did any of the others fare well &t the hands of the miner. Whenever be cut loose his punches had their effect. Each man was praying for the round to end, and, stall and feint as they would, they could not keep the big fellow at a distance. - He saved Andy Gallagher till the last and went two exceedingly fast rounds with the lively heavy-weight. It was then he showed the great im- provement. Gallagher would work him into a corner, but the miner had & habit of shooting out his left and catching Andy one that could not be classed with the easy punches. The pair went two hurricane rounds end Munroe showed wonderful foot- work. He would let Andy get to him with a couple of stiff wallops every now and ‘then, but always happened to be right back with one which re- sounded throughout the gymnasium. A number of the miner’s friends from Butte who were present went into ecstacies over Jack’s showing. Aside from boxing Munroe did his usual roadwork and also went through his stunts in the gymnasium. In toss- ing the medicine ball he showed up fast. He has a peculiar style when indulging in this exercise and instead of catching the ball with his hands Jets it hit him on the stomach and chest. He kept this up for some time yesterday, but the hot ones that Gal. lagher shot at him only made him smile. —_——— French Billiardist in the Lead.

The story had its des were given something to discuss, a con- dition much to be desired by the who stands guard over the box office. » Denials came thick and fa yester- day. Jeffries said he never felt better was re: to a lin his life and that h fight at an hour's notice. He postponement was farthest from thought and that if he had to train for three weeks more he would take to the | tall timbers. Mana Delaney and Secretary entered strong disclaimers that ne had been authorized to speak r them in the matter. “We cannot understand how the story started,” said Egan yesterday. “We will answer ‘Ready’ when the call. to the ring is issued. Jeffries is trained now and it is only a matter of ¥ him at that notch. Our only fe r from want additional time” There will be evidences of great hi- larity up in the wilds of Lake County when the story is told that Jeffries afraid of Munroe and that he wants to | put off the evil hour of meeting the big miner from Butte as far as possible. This was one of the stories which grew quickly out of the one regarding the postponement. The fight will take place on time, and from the confidence of the men it should be the most sen- sational battle ever fought for the | heavy-weight title. ———— CRACK WHEELMEN ENTER FOR RACES AT INGLESIDE The captain of every wheel club in San Francisco has ordered club runs to Ingleside next Sunday and all cycle- dom will be represented at the big blue ribbon meet in aid of the pro- posed athletic amphitheater in Golden the Ramblers and Verba which do not number racing mem- bers, will have entries in the attrac- tive list of races on the card. In the ten-mile relay the Bay Citys, Califgornia Cycling Club, turys, Golden Gates, Central Citys, Pa- cifics and Stars will vie for honors against teams from Stockton, San Jose, Oakland and Sacramento. The provisions of this race call for five- men teams, each rider to go two miles, and points for first, second.and third places at the end of each mile to de- cide the ultimate winner. The man finishing ahead in the first trip around the.track will thus gain as much credit for his team as the ome to actually win the race. It has been decided by the commit- tee in charge that delays at race meets are dangerous and long waits will not be possible under the system to be adopted. A time schedule has been arranged and will be furnished to the captain of each team. Riders not coming to their marks at the bell will lose their chances of contesting. Three handicaps are down for competition, a five-mile tandem pursuit race has been added and a mile point race for individuals, with every quarter pole as a finishing point in counting the winners, will complete an interesting afternoon of sport. 1 | The use of the track has been do- nated for the afternoon by the New California Jockey' Club. As the riders are going for glory and ribbons the entire proceeds will go to the coffers of the park amphitheater fund. - ! rv‘s“ red effect and the fight fans | man | his ! seping | the start has been that Munroe would | Gate Park.

The officials paid no heed to his command, but carried out their original programme. It is known Jeffries prefers Graney, who is the official referee of the Yosem- ite Club. Pollock, backed up by Young Corbett, who is coming west with him, will make a big fight if Graney’s name is mentioned.

The baseball pennant race seesaw is work- ing again and Oakland goes into second place, with Los Angeles coming strong and Seattle still in the runuing. Dunleavy did not play yesterday, but he had the interest of his team at heart strong enough to abuse the umpire and experienced { the vleasure of going from the fleld under protection. This is the last week of baseball in San Francisco for a month. All the action will occur in Portland, Tacoma and Seattle, be- ginning next Monday. This little rest is to be the first San Francisco fans have, had in the history of the national game on the coast, Yerkes pitched yvesterday with a plece of bicycle tape on the pitching finger of his right hand.

(Pacific Coast League.) W. L. Pet Tacoma .. Oakland Los Angeles Mr. Schmidt did not have a thing that Uncle's warriors could not hit vesterday at Oakland. They let the first inning pass without doing the run-getting act, but landed something awful in the second, going through the ceremony of driving in five runs. Score, 8 to 0. Schmidt was at his worst, cert. 1; for he possessed mman speed nor curves. artly through his wildness that San Fran- cisco gained such an easy victory and partly because he was so easy to hit when men were ofi the bases. eitz was the first man up in the second and Schmidt drove the ball into his ribs. Leahy fanned, but Mas sey flopped a “Texas leaguer” to short center. Yerkes made the second out by missing three strikes, so it looked pretty good for Oakland. “Rabbit” Miller soused it oud second base and Reitz arrived. brand walked and Waldroy unloaded double out to center; scoring two. Meany’s single to the same place com- pleted the run-making for the inning. Massey smashed it out over the left field fence in the third. After he had doubled in the fifth Hildebrand sent the leather out on a line to Ganley. The latter fgll down and the ball rolled to the fence for a homer. Oakland could not hit at all, and it was easy for Yerkes to score a shut- out. He had grand command of the ball and seemed to know the weakness of every man on the Oakland team. Massey will probably be released to- day, as Uncle has signed up Cy. Town- send, last vear’s guardian of the Sac- ramento initial bag. The score: San Francisco— Oakland— AB.R. H. AB.R.

Score: HAMPION JEFFRIES AFRICANDER AND HERMIS ARE BEATEN BY THE ERRATIC MAJOR DAINGERFIELD The Black Son of Handspring Takes Standard Stakes Cleverly. —_— Special Dispatch to The Call. GRAVESEND, N. Y., June 7.—The running of the Standard stakes to-day proved three things to thousands of racegoers who witnessed the stirring struggle. One was that Major Dain- gerfield has rturned to the superb form which induced W. B. Leeds to buy him from “Diamond Jim™ Brady for $25,000. Another was that the -year has not added to the courage of | Hermis, and he may be put down as ! the same faint-hearted horse, and the third is that Africander is a good *horse at present and will be_a danger- ous factor in the Suburban handicap. Major Daingerfield, carrying 116 pounds, defeated Africander, carrying 125, in easy fashion. The Standard had its luster dimmed by the withd al of Irish Lad and The Picket, but even in its amended form it provided an interesting strug-| gle. Hermis and Afritander opened' pretty close to even favorites, it the layers were in doubt and were feeling their w. They had not long to wait, for the preference of the ex- perts was for Africander. The smart money on him drove his price down, while Hermis receded in the betting. Major Daingerfield seemed to be neglected. The Major has acquired a bad reputation. Some days he runs in brillant fashion, other days he will not run at all, so the racegoers have tired wagering dollars on the guess that he would or that he would not.

Lanterman, and Sheriff Bell, owned by Morris L. Hayman, would have been mé§ched for the most sensational race ever known in this country. John W.

Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. CHICAGO, June 7.—A favorite landed the money to-day at Harlem, the first in thirteen races, and it proved one of the best played choices of the meet- ing. Not since the first race on the opening dav had a favorite wom un- til Pat Dunne’s Adare, backed from 8 to 5 to 6 to 5, landed in the second race, and his margin was less than a length. Superstitious members of the talent who had not spent their bank soll in backing first choices during the first three davs of ‘the meeting finally took a “hunch to Adare for the limit. He barely got up in the closing stride, beating out the 9 to 1 shot, Bert Osra, by a length. Aside from this the only feature of the afternoon was the victory of Gregor K affair at seven furlongs. A large num- ber of spectators thought Soufriere had won by a nose, but the judges, who were in a better position to see, decided otherwise. . y Dugan, the exercise boy who was injured by a fall while galloping Mansard recently, died at Garfleld San- itarium last night. Dugan's home was in Oakland. The body will be taken West to-night by his widowf for burial at Oakland. Mansard was scratched to-day because of Dugan's death. The track was slow and a fairly stiff breeze was blowing up the stretch. A large crowd was present. Summaries: FIRST RACE—Four and a half furlongs: two-year-olds: selling: Betting.
