The upshot of it was that Delaney accepted the offer of a purse of $30,000 for the fight, which is to take place on a day in April yet to be selected. The winner is to receive 60 per cent of this amount, or $18,000, while the loser will receive $12,000 as balm for. his ‘wounded feelings. Transportation was cabled Squires when the negotiations were concluded and he was urged to leave for this country as soon as pos sible. His intention was to come on the liner Sonema, which left here §es- terday for Sydney, but in view of the mportance of the match it is expected he will take the next steamer for this country, arriving here late in January.

A. Smyth Champion Jim Jeffries could not resist the lure of gold held out to him temptingly by the boxing promoters of Nevada, so the big fellow is to-don the five-ounce gloves again, this time in an international match. His opponent will be Bill Squires, who has been mentioned frequently for some years past as a possible opponent for the un- defeated champion heavyweight.

In all his conversations about a $30.- 000 purse Jeffries has never told The Call correspondent that he would not fight for that amount. but always main- tained that he wants more.
