EACH SAYS HE WAS VICTOR
White Man Gets $8875 and Black
oily $50 0 0 Johnson Going to
England Before Fight
v With Ketchel.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.. May 20 I3p.
clal. It became known today that It wa
Jack O'Brien who really engineered lam
nighfe bout with Jack Johnson, not the
National Athletic Club. and that the
white man made the big end of the
profit. Johnson, as lie expected, did get
for hia work, but he did not know
that O'Brien waa paying him that sum
out af his end of the proceeds. The white
man signed the articles with" the club
whereby he waa to receive 73 per cent of
the gross receipts, which came to about
US.'"). Of this he gave Johnson hia .7M.
which left about x875 for himself. The
club's end was J4625. '
'I am satisfied with the result of tha
bout." said O'Brien today. "Johnson had
SO pounds the better of the weights. His
reach and height were against me. and
still I had to force all the fighting. I
waa better against Johnson, because of
my condition, than I was against Ketchel.
I will be even better In my next bout.
I have a dozen theatrical offers, but I
don't think I will accept any of the en
gagements." "I won." said Johnson. "everybody
knows I did. but I must admit I never
dreamed O'Brien waa so fast and clever.
I am going to England: then I will re
turn to America and whip Ketchel and
take that -flyer at James J. Jeffries."
OBRIEV WAS ALWAYS FAKER
History of Notorious "Frame-up"
With Barns Is Recounted.
Philadelphia Jack O'Brien has long been
known as a pugilist who never won fights
on the square. On several occasions he
has been ehught red-handed In the act
of "framing" his fights In advance, and
his propensity In this direction made It o
uncomfortable for him on the Pacific
Coast two years ago that he was forced
to leave for the Hast.
In Los Angeles O'Brien and Tommy
Burns were matched to fight 20 rounds at
McCarey'a Pavilion. O'Brien made over
tures to Burns for a "frame-up" In
O'Brien's favor, with Bums on the long
end of the money. Burns fell In with the
plan.' It was generally believed that Burns
waa tha better man. and betting odds were
all In hia favor, but O'Brien, secure In
Burns' promise to -take a beating, eased
off in his training and spent his time loll
ing about his quarters and drinking cham
.pagne. When the night aet for the battle came
It found a tremendous amount of money
wagered, and a great crowd turned out to
see the fight. Just before time for him
to go on. Burns called Promoter Moparey
aside, and told him of his agreement with
O'Brien, but added that he was not going
to abide by it. but would give the Phlla
delphlan a sound drubbing to satisfy an
old. grudge, and at the saaie time make a
winning, aa he had bet heavily on himself.
McC&rey was paralyzed by the gravity
of the situation, but not sufficiently so
to cause him to do the obviously honest
thing by telling the crowd the truth and
refunding their admittance money. In
stead, he caused the referee to announce
that all beta were declared off. and that
the ficht would go on. No turner ex
planation waa made.
As soon as he heard the referee's an
nouncement. O'Brien realized that Burns
had "double-crossed" him. but both men
were in the ring, and there, was nothing
for O'Brien to do but go on and pretend
to fiaht. This he did. but made no real
effort to get at his opponent. Burns
drove him' around and around the ring, aa
a bulldog might drive a yellow cur. hit
ting him whenever and wherever he could.
The crowd hooted and yelled, but O'Brien
continued to run and dodge, thus manag.
Ing to last nut the 20 rounds, but being
forced to take sn awfijl drubbing.
Xext morning In his hotel. O'Brien,
propped up in bed. with his nose broken,
one eye closed and his face generally bat
tered to pieces, made a full confession,
and sobbed In Impotent rage as he told
how Burns had "betrayed" him. a story
which Burns later confirmed fully.
That was O'Brien's last fight on tha
Pacific Coast.

SCHOOL TEAMS ARE BUNCHED
IN LEAGUE FINALS.
Ockley Green and Sharer Win. but
Williams Avenue Retains Grip
on First Place.
Simmering down to the last of the
finals, the grammar school games are
attracting considerable attention among
for I land youngsters. Much satisfac
tion waa felt by the less-fortunate
teams, when Montavilla lost Its nrst
game of the season Wednesday, giv
ing the other members a chance for
the pennant. Williams Avenue now
has first place In the finals and Monta
villa. Shaver and Ockley Green are
pretty evenly matched for second place.
Playing like veterans, and with only
threa errors In the 'whole game. Ockley
Green and Couch grammar schools
played one of the fastest and. most
Interesting games of t ho season yes
terday afternoon at the grounds at
East Twelfth and East Davis streets.'
Up to the eighth Inning Couch had
Ockley Green shut out with three runs
to its own credit. Ockley then took a
brace and began to swat the ball,
bunching Its hits and scoring three
runs. Then Shipley won the game for
Ockley Green. Couch's pitcher had
twirled a ball to the catcher, who
leisurely tossed It back to the box.
Shipley who was playing some dis
tance away from third, saw Ms chance
and the moment the ball left the catch
er's hand made a shoot for the plate,
sliding- home for the winning; run.
In an interesting but uneven rime
yesterday at the Williams Avenue
grounds, the Shaver boys put It over
Vernon to the tuns of to 1. This
victory placed Shaver in the running,
while it left Vernon still hcMmt.
FAKDOM AT RANDOM
VtKE DONLIN thinks a great de.tl of
I " Henry Pernoll and Phil Cooney.
Read what he says of them In his
story" of yesterday's game.
"Tours Forever Heiney" Pernoll had
the Portland slucgers fadcu yesterday,
for the ex-Portlaml pitcher held Casty's
team to three hits. s
At that he was lucky "to win. for a
hit In that ninth Inning would have
broken np the game. Even a long fly
would have helped.
"Count" Bassey jrot three bases on
balls yesterday, and the day before
he made three sacrifice hits, which
helps his batting average a trifle at
that.
Pernoll fanned Garry. .Slaton and
Adams In the second, and Murray as
the first man tip In the tlilrj. which
made four straight waftlngs In suc
cession. Casey Is lucky In havlns secured
Fred Adams, for he can. play Infield
