WITH THE READY ERNE SAYS WHITE WILL BEAT BRIT Former Light-Weight Champion Declare How the Mighty Highlanders, Filled to| that the Visiting Baslishrian i the rt Man in the World Who Can Take the Measure of Young Californian. BY ROBERT EDGREN. “Jabes White will surely beat Jimmy Britt, He is likely to win with a knock- out, but if he doesn't he'll have such & lead in the fighting that he will take ‘the decision,” So said Frank Erne yesterday after- noon when I asked for his opinion of ‘White as a fighter. I knew that Erne, on his many trips abroad, had often ween White perform in the ring, and that he would have a better line on the Englishman's ability than any other Amarican, “My firet expertence with White,” Emme oontinued, “was about five years ago. I was with Mike Bears, of Bos- toy, who was fighting In Bngland at that time, and I seconded him in his battle with White, ; ‘Beara was a strong, sturdy fighter, He was pretty clever, and he could take a beating and give one, When he fought White he waa in the finest kind of condttion, and I expected to see him walk away with the Hngtishman. What White Did to Sears, “What Wihite did to him was a shame. I never saw another man get such @ beating in a ring, White was as cool as ice, Rears tore at him time and again, but Jabex punched right and left, Inockerl him down about as fast as he could get up, and had him so bad in tho twelfth that the fight had to be stoppel, fears was a fearful sight, After the fight he couldn't get out of his chalr without assistance, “Then I saw White fight Jim Ourran, the middlo-welght, Curran was & clever fellow, a champion in the train- ing quarters, He was a dangerous puncher, too, In the first round White walked up to him deliberately and, with one of the first blows struck, knocked Curran down and broke his nose, He punched the big fellow all over the ring | an. through the first round, Ourran wanted to quit when the bell rang for the sec- ond, but Tommy West, who was in his corner, pushed him to his feet and made him go on, West threatened to boat Curran to death if he didn't go on and fight, and he knew Tommy would do it, Curran Took Beating, “That fight was as bad as the Sears affair, Curran took a terrible beating round after round. Chane Mitchell told Whito to let up for fear of Killing him, as he had the decision well in hand, When the referee called it a draw at the end of thw twentieth round it was a surprise to every one In the house, as White won by a mile, He wasn't hit at all and he hammered Curran to a pulp, “iver since Britt beat me in San Francisco I haye thought him one of the greatest light-weights in the ring. I had @ good sample of his quality, When he was about to fight ‘Young Corbett’ the first time I gave Ths divening World @ statement to the effert that I thought Jimmy would beat ‘Corbett’ in twenty rounds, and that was published. At that time almost I thought Britt Peet beat Nelson, and would beat ng at 133 pounds, altho uldn' Go Gho eee at ae SoU he couldn't ‘But I haven't a doubt that Jabes Wuite wAl whip him, I was sorry when T heard that White was coming over| here, for I like Britt, and I have had {t In my mind for @ long time that White was the one lightweight. who could get away with him. Then Britt {s an Ameriaan, and 1 would ‘hate to see him trimmed. White Cool in Ring. “White is exactly the kind of a fighter to beat him, He is the coolest thing. ‘no ring. The ico In the water-bucket {an't @ circumstance to him. Britt Is high strung and nervous, Except for that he would have knocked out Gans. He gets excited when fighting at top spoed and ds likely to get wild. White Is always steady, He fists very much ike Gans, He doesn't do much foot- work of the fancy kind, but he !s al- ways polsed for a punch, He hits little short blows that travel a few Inchee and do the trick, He hits just as hard with his left hand as with hig right. Hoe has the finest judgment of distance IT ever saw. Britt 1s a hard man to hit, ‘decause he thas a deceptive way of mov- ing in and out all the time. That makes you loge the range, But White will nafl him, He never lets a blow go with. out landing It, “Besides that White Is a heady, clever man on the defensive, I never saw hint lose ‘his head or his balance for a sec- ond, He !s always ready with a guard and a@ counter, And he can hit from any position, too, "I don’t know whether or not he can take punishment, hecause I never saw one land on him. He will outbox Britt and take the decision if the bout goes the limit, and that’s something that none of the othens have succeeded {n doing. But at that I don't think he will win on a decision, He will mix it up, and at inside hitting Jabes Is as accurate a5 a sharpshooter, England's Best Boxer, “White is the best boxer England ever turned out. He doesn’t box like an Englishman at all. That's why he has always whipped the rest of them so easily, Right from the first he has made it a rule to work with all the vis- {ting American boxers. He has even worked with Jim Corbett, and he has pleked up the finest poinis of our game, Poople who go to this fight won't ree a typical British boxer at all, I'm sorry for Britt, ag 1 sald before, and I wish White had stayed at home, This will be a real battle for the Ucht-welght champlonship. Britt and White are the pick of the genuine Iight- welghts. Gans fsn't a lightweight at il, Even when ho foueht me he re- fused to xo In under 190 pounds," JOCKEY M’CAEFERTY IS FATALLY INJURED NEW ORLEANS, March 2%,—Jockey McCafferty dicd last night from Injuries recelyed iy the second race at the Fair jrounds track yesterday, ‘phe field of eleven horses was about to swing nto the stretch when Swedish ‘ad, running sixth, was jumped on by me one of the horses behind him and hind leg broken, Court ad his near 1, following, fell over Swedish Lad. ey rty, who rode Court Crler, waa thrown directly in the path of the oncoming horses, Hopeless add- d to the confusion by falling over Swedish Lad and Court Crier.
