Johnny Eckart, manager of “The Child Slaves of New York,” has been negotiating with Hanlon for some time, with a view to getting the Cali- fornian to assume the role of Butts, one of the strong characters of the play.

Britt made the overtures to Herford and told him that the only way his brother would fight me was for me to agree to lay down to him. I aid not learn of this until three days before the fight, when Herford told me what I had to do. “Up to this time I had counted on whip- a time, but Herford told me he had al- ready posted $5000 as a forfeit that I would live up to the agreement he made and not double-cross Britt. If I knocked Britt out it was understood I was to re- ceive only 10 per cent and also lose the $5000. Under these conditions I had to agree. “Britt lost the decision, but he re- celved 673 per cent of the flghters’ share of the receipts. I recelved 32% per cent, although I was declared the winner. Herford bet $18,000 on me at average odds of 7 to 10. Willie Britt, representing his brother. recelved his share of the money won by Herford betting on me. I know these figures are correct, as I was settled with on this basis. “I .object to Britt making me the scapegoat in this affair. I have proof that he bet on the fight and also that he did not bet on himself, To prove he faked it all I need is to get him in the ring. “‘Neither Mr. Graney, the referee, nor Mr. Coffroth, the manager, was in any manner implicated in the affair as far as I have knowledge. I hope that Britt will give me a chance in the ring to prove that I am right in all my state- ments. - “1 will give Britt $1000 if he will sign articles with me. I understand he has promised Nelson the $5000 due on the pictures if he will sign with him. I am Just as anxious to meet Britt as he is to meet Nelson.” Joe Gans came out boldly yesterday in a signed statement and declared his fight with Jimmy Britt in Mechanics' Pavilion on October 31, 1904, was a rank fake. The suspicions of the public at the time are thus confirmed by one of the parties to the outrageous affair. Gans' part in the fake was to enter the ring, and, instéad of using his skill as a boxer to defeat Britt, he was allowed the latter to strike him a foul blow. The decision went to Gans, but the lion's share of the purse and all the tarnished honors went ‘to. Britt. The preartranged outcome of the fight was known to Britt, according to the Baltimore boxer. Gans claims that Britt bet his own money on Gans, while he advised his friends in the Olympic Club and elsewhere to bet on him to defeat his colored opponent, Gans harps on the fact in this ugly scandal that not one of his friends lost any money on him. He claims the only discreditable thing with which he can be eharged is that he did not.give the pub- lic a fair run for its money. He could have won in a fair stand-up fight. In order that Britt could have honor with his defeat he was to appear to lose his head and foul his opponent. The “five-act drama,” as Gans now calls it, went through as .nough it had been rehearsed for weeks. Many of the spectators. left the ringside in & somewhat dazed condition. Their worst fears are now confirmed by one of the parties to the affalr, ‘The members of the Olympic Club and others who bet on Britt can ponder over the abllity of the get-rich-quick men to frame an artistio job. Gans' damaging statement is enough to shake any one's faith in the honesty of the prize ring. The colored man has been fighting for twelve years and has an almost unbroken string of vie- tories to his credit. In order to make a bare living with the talents nature has glven him he has at times had to enter into just such arrangements as this one with Britt. The latter has had as powerful friends as any fighter ever possessed. If they find their trust abused it Is another trag- edy not necessarily of the narrow con- fines of the ring, but of the world. Gans' ‘statement with all its repulsive details follows: To the Sporting Editor—Dear Sir: I was glad to hear that Mr. Britt made a state- ment, as T thought he had left town in order to avoid a meeting with me. He states he will not meet me in the ring. This does not surprise me one bit, as every sane man knows you could not drag him into the ring with me if he had to fight on the level.

The weather conditions were against the players, as a heavy mist upset their cal- cujations In putting. The grass on the ‘“‘greens’ held the water and this, in turn, retarded the roll of the ball John Lawson turned in the best score, | 83, for the eighteen holes, He holds the record for the course of 78. The cham- plonship is believed to rest between John Lawson, C. F. Newton and C. B. Maud. The latter made the best score for ome | round yesterday, 39, but he required 0| for the first nine holes. Once he became accustomed to the prevailing conditions he played a remarkably strong game. There were a number of hard-luck sto- ries related by the players upon their return to the clubhouse, Mr. Golcher re- quired nine strokes at ome hole, which ordinarily requires but three.

HOTEL DEL CORONADO, Feb. 17— The concluding rounds of several of the tennis tournaments were reached to-da The seating capacity around the co was increased, and several hundred tators were treated to excellemt t The ladies’ doubles tournament. was com pleted and resulted in a victory for Miss Florence Sutton and her sister, M:s Bruce. Miss May Sutton and Miss Dob bins, who is easily the best player on the coast after the Sutton sisters, were op- posed to Miss Florence Sutton and Mrs. Bruce in the finals. The little cBampion and her partner took the first set, which was close and Interesting. The next two sets were won quite easily by Miss Flor- ence Sutton and Mrs. Bruce. All four players put up good tennis, and the con- test elicited rounds of applause from the spectators. The score was 87, 6-3, &L The champion dld not play as well as usual, and although Miss Dobbixis did her as I d1d before he would sign articles at 4 minute’s notice. BSome parts of his statements are- true, particularly the one in which he says he did not bet on him- self. He let his friends loose thousands of dollars. I know that Britt bet on the fight, and if he did not bet on him- self, who did he bet on? The articles we signed calling for and 50 per cent were just as phoney as the articles he signed with Nelson call- || ing for a $10,000 side bet and winner- take-all. I am awfully sorry that I have to be chasing after him for & match. I -would not allow anybody to chase me. He could make enough money by de- feating me to buy another row of flats. The public is not satisfied with our ll‘l\l meeting, and I personally am not sat- isfled. Britt calls me a faker, but it I had the money and friends he had at our "last meeting I would never have faked I am willing to stake mine against his. Any man who will advise his schoolmates and members ‘of the Olympic Club to bat on him, as he did In our last five-a®t drama, he being the hero, when he knew (according to our agreement), he was to lose, hasn't much of a reputation to lose. 'If he feels he can defeat me on the level, let him sign and give his friends (whom -he steered wrong) a chance to regain their losses. I hope Mr. Britt will con- sider this matter and will get up courage enough to sign.
