Cae eee —_—_~—— Breyer Coming From Paris to Sign Johnson for Finish Bout There in the Fall. Gopreieht, 1912, by The Preas Pubitsbing Oo (The World! New York ICTOR BREYER the Portsian V sporting promoter, Is coming to this to induce Jack country Jeannette, as follows: Salling Aug. 17. Keep after Johnson. My proposition to him, ($0,000 and $1,000 penses, Com- bat to a finteh, this fall, VICTOR BREYER, MoKetrick immediately wired John- son at Chicago and ts anxiously await- ing an answer, McKetrick is loudly insistent that Johnson t# no longer champion of the worl& He forfeited his title, says Dan, when he announced to the press after the Flynn fight that he had fought his last ring battle “Just now,” continues McKetrick, “Johnson is where Jeffries was when Tommy Burns acquired the heavy- weight title, He has refused two bona- fide offers to fight Jeannette, and if he wants to come out and fight now, it will be as retired champion, just Ike Jeffries did. Jeannette will give him hia chance, just as the es smoke gave Jeffries hi By th was mopping bis di sbing brow.

At that the claims of the Hoboken negro may amoke him out of his hole into which he would iike to crawt end draw the title. UNG REILLY ané Packey Hom- Y mey, two little fellows, carrying & lot of excess weight, furnished the best bout of rather an ordinary show at the Garden last night, Hom- mey was tho stronger of the pair, and perhaps had a bit better punoh, but Rollly was the better boxer, He de- Rvered his blowa prettily and was ‘cool as the proverbial cucumber at every stage of the contest. To call the bout anything but # draw would be un- fair to both boys. Jack Britton and Eddie Smith furnished the so-called etar out, which was put on before the Railly-<Hlommey contest to comply with “(te Boxing Commission's W o'clock Dout was almost a burlesque and established Smith es the comedian of the ring. Britton was marvelously lever at times and completely out- classed the Yorkville boy, who has been doing ao Well of late, Smith took a thousand different punches and had a hard time trying to put @ glove on Britton. Any time he @id land was mere by accident than anything else. Smith often had to laugh at his own efforts to find the elusive Britton, but though badly discouraged he never Stopped trying. Britton doesn't appear to have @ punch, but he is there with the clever etuft. The Al McCoy-Dan Kurtz bout went the limit, McCoy being entitled to the decision, McCoy boxes in K, O, Brown fashion, and this had Kurts all at sea BY BOZEMAN BULGER. T any rate, ‘twere better to parade tall, A and jose than not parade So saying, McGraw ied his freshly proclaimed champions to a near- by fing station and lit out for Chicago, where the deadly pounding on the fans’ nerve will continue until the end of the week.

It looked at first like a simple and harmless plan to pick up a little easy money, and so far as I know there has been no opposition to it. But when they inoorporate, be- coming @ stock-selling possibility, and use the name of such a man manager of a team that can help the Chicago club or je lot in the present pennant race, the matter takes an entirely different aspect. As a matter of fact, the Giants haven't won the race, and I don’t think they will win it—without the undue assist- ance of other teams. I want to see the Cardinals play the game the Giants and play it right up to the hilt. I can hardly be- Neve that Bresnah¢h would allow himself to be dtawn into « financial scheme whose success might depend entirely on his own team losing and a rival team winning. The race in the National League must be run out strictly on its merits, Not even a suspicion can be permitted to creep into the situation right now. wta| MeMahon Willing to Give Johnson Sum He Demands''i! « Yingling was sent to the mound for It is contrary to all traditions of baseball. \( BOUTS TO-NIGHT. ley Griffin.
