Gans offers to give Britt the entire fight- ers’ share of the receipts of a fight if Britt wins. If Gans wins he will donate €every cent to the widows' and orphans’ funds of the Fire and Pollce departments. He also agrees to let Jimmy's brother, William, referce the bout. There would be a tacit understanding that Willlam w{ould not take a lighted clgar into the ring. Gans winds up with a challenge to a talking match. This would be decided under handicap conditions. The Britts would have a decided pull in the welghts, as Joe offers to take on both brothers at the same time, he to go to the post alone. Speed acceleraters will be barred. The long suffering newspaper men are invited to appear in the stand to pass judgment upon To the Sporting Editor: I have one more proposition to make to Britt. I want to fight him again and I will leave it to the publlc if this is not fair. Let the Fire and Police de- partments get a special permit from the Mayor and run the show. If Britt wins he can take all the fighters’ share and invest in more flats. 1f I win I will give all my share to the chari- ties of the two departments. I want to say at this time I have not a dollar to my name, and I will have to borrow to pay my training ex- penses. If 1 can afford to box for nothing and with nothing, why not Mr. Britt, who has a few cold thousands stored away, do the same? at 6 o'clock. liam to ref- one that he wishes. The only eree, thing that I insist on is that the referse de- or any clare all bets off before we start. If this does not suit you, Mr. Britt, please make a propo-« sitfon that will suit. Now, James, you have accused me of having some one to advise me. To prove that you have made a mistake and that I am as good as you are mentally, I will meet you and your representative (I will be alone) and we will talk over this affair before the newspaper men and let them judge for the public who is right. Hoping that you will give me an early reply, T am yours respeetfully. JOE GANS. There was an unconfirmed rumor on the streets last night that Willie Britt con- templated making a clean breast of the affalr which has been so much talked over. The rumor was that he wanted to clear his brother's skirts. TRy Seany NOLAN AFTER THE FIGHT TRUST. Nelson’s Manager Delivers a Broadside at the Promoters in This City. Battling Nelson's manager is con- tributing to the gayety %of the East- ern sporting fraternity by his illumi- nated talks on the troubles of the fight promoters in this city. One of his stories is about a fight that was so well fixed that the promoters took the money which the public pald in ad- vance for seats and put it Into the pool boxes. The man it was wagered oa won. Nolan's latest follows: NEW YORK, Feb. 21.—“The San Francisco fake trust,” is the way No- lan speaks of the Coffroth-Britt-Levy- Nolan, who left New York today with Battling Nelson for Huntington, W. Va., says the worm will turn and that he has faced about. His change of attitude—and that is a mild word for it, as parts of Nolan's explana- tion wouldn't go through the mails—is inspired by the recent attempt to bar him from doing business in San Fran- cisco. “Won't do business with me, eh?’ said Nolan. “Well, they are a little late. My ultimatum that Nelson would never fight when Coffroth had any- thing to do with the game was given out some time ago, and it stands—that is, until he pays us the $5000 he owes us. “Why, Coffroth was in on the Britt- Gans fake to the extent that he per- sonally handed over to Britt the win- ner's share of the purse after the ught. When he and Britt had a falling out some time after, didn't Coffroth threar- en to show up Britt by producing du- plicates of the checks? “Coffroth was the party who engi- neered the first deal in which Nelson was deprived of victory with Britt. The man who acted under orders and carrjed gut his programme to the let- ter is and has since been on his pay- roll and Coffroth dare not sev: - nection with him.” e MO FAIL TO NAME A REFEREE.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 21.—Spurred to immediate action by the emphatic de- mand made by Presiding Judge Hamilton that the scandal be settled at once and the charges shifted so that those at fault may be punished, the directors of the Los Angeles Jockey Club today decided to be- gin thelr official inquiry next Wednesday. There was a disposition to wait until the close of the meeting before taking action, but Judge Hamlilton would not listen to it, and his demand for immediate action was granted. There are the charges of the Horse Owners’ Association that Manager Brooks and Officlal Handicapper Jasper have fa- vored certain horses in the matter of welghts; that they have programmed races so as to cut out the horses of the men the management does not like; that one horseman, alleged to be in high faver with the management, makes a practice of running his horses in traliing plates until he wants to win and then puts light racing shoes on them, and that the man- ager bets on horses he favors and that he has an interest in one of the stables. The other side retorts with a general denial and makes counter charges of crookedness, supported in at least two instances by verdicts of the judges and heavy fines upon the allegea culprits, who were convicted of juggling with horses. In addition, it is claimed by the leader Suavita and Daisy of one faction that he can prove the | leader of the other to be guilty of admin- istering stimulants to an old horse, there- by winning a race which, according to form, would have been impossible. All these serious charges have been ex- ploited and the patrons of Ascot find in them confirmation of the stories of crook- edness at the track. From time to time during the present meeting there have beer charges and counter charges of crooked work. The directors say they will go into all the cases reported and infilct severe penalties upon those found guilty. ——————— WILL REVIVE AMERICAN DERBY. Brooklyn Joekey Club Framing Condi- tions for a Similar Race. NEW YORK, Feb. 21.—If Fred Reh- berger gets his way the Brooklyn Joekey Club will either revive the American Derby, which went out of existence last summer because the Washington Park Club of Chicago was compelled to close its gates, or instl tute a new event for three-year-olds ge much like the great Chicago race that it cannot fail to become as pop- ular as the Derby. Rehberger will open the race at ome’ mile and a quarter for three-year-olds, with $10,000 added, on the general'plan of the American Derby. He contends that such a race would attract the greatest field of three-vear-olds In America. Unless the conditlons of the Realization, the Brooklyn and Brigh- ton Derbies, the Belmont and the Tidal are changed it would speedily become the three-year-old event of the year. ———————— Hermis Out of Suburban.
