(Editor's Note—Since the big fight at Reno Jim Jeffries has had Rothing to say. He has refused to discuss the affair, He has refused to explain how he was whipped. He hag refused to tell of his feelings while in the ring. He has refused to say whether or not he would fight again. For one week The Star has had William Ja . a news paper man and personal friend of Jeffries, with him at Catalina island, trying to make the big fellow talk. Jeffries persistently refused, but finally he consented to tel! of the events before and after the battie. And his statements are astounding. For over two hours he sat on the porch of his Los Angeles home and talked with Jacobs of that eventful day when he went down to defeat at the hands of Johnson. This = the first interview Jeffries has given out since the battle regarding hi future actions and giving the reasons for his miserable showing egulnet Jack Johnson.) | BY WILLIAM JACOBS.
