J‘ DILLON, despairing of get- ting any of the “good” eastern heavyweights into a ring, has fallen back upon a match with old Jim Flynn in Oklahoma, This is hardly a training exercise for Dillon, Funny how the heavyweights around these diggings plump head first into their holes when Dilfon appears.

Moran hasn't given out @ statement of uny kind, Tom O'Rourke always has been a daring promoter. Possibly he sees some way to pay $35,000 for a Moran- Dillon bout and put it through in Brooklyn at a profit. But how it can be done is a puzzle to me. I don't think Moran and Dillon would draw as much money 4s that anywhere outside Madison Square Garden, and jvery Ikely it wouldn't draw $35,000 pnses there, M. failure y to Iittle Dillon's challenges as given the public an idea that Frank is afraid that he'd be beaten, ‘ouldn't be induced to meet any oO but Jim Coffey before fighting Willard.
