NEW YORK. July 21. Actual steps
InokinK to a fleht between James J. Jeff

Jeffries will leave for a short European
trip In a few days. He will visit tho
springs at Carlsbad and will do a little
preliminary training there. He plans to
be ready to fight within five months.
"There la absolutely nothing the mat
ter with me. anyway." said Jeffrlea, giv
ing his chast a mighty thump. Jeff said
he hoped the fight would be held in this
country. He thought that a few days at
Carlsbad and a little trip on the Con
tinent would be beneficial.
On posting his forfeit, Jeffries lssned
the following statement:
Jeffrlea -Slakes Talk."
"After convincing myself that It is
asHy possible for roe to defend my title
aa champion of the world,' in as good con
dition as ever before in my life. I am
today posting as forfeit to meet the
claimant of the title. Jack Johnson.
"In reference to those skeptical about
my Intention of meeting Johnson. I wish
to say that when first called from retire
ment I said I would never agree to op
pose anybody In the prise-ring, until I
was convinced that I could regain my
former physical condition. After being
absolutely satisfied of this. I stated I
would post my forfeit at the expiration
of my theatrical engagement.
"My theatrical contract having expired.
I am posting my money, sincerely hoping
that Johnson is aa anxious for the match
as he has made It appear, and that he
will be ready to live up to hla public
statements as I am."
JOHNSON SAYS HE IS READY
Intimates That Jefrrles Is Still
Bluffing Over Idea of Match.
JACKSON. Mich.. July 28. "I'll leave
Chicago Monday night for New York and
cover that forfeit." said Jack Johnson
tonight, when informed that Jeffries had
posted ."V forfeit money to fight John
son. Johnson said he was not surprised to
h-nr that Jeffries had posted the for
f. it.
"I expected he would do something of
the fci-ul." said Johnson, "as a sort of
li'iiff and to make good his statement
that be would right me. I will be ready
:i fisht almost any time. I think I am
i i rotnlition now to clean up on Jeffrlea
;rhi:i 15 rounds."
I ilmson said he preferred to meet Jeff
l:i Snn Francisco.
That is the best place In the coun
try.' he said.
.MCA HEY IS AFTER BATTLE
I'ormcr Rival of Jerfrles Wants
Fieht at Los Angeles.
I.OS ANOKI.ES. Cal.. July 2S. "I'll
land that fight or know -he reason
nil!." declared Tom McCarey, fight
promoter and erstwhile rival of Jef
fries, when he learned that the "unde
feated champion" had posted his for
fait to clinch a match with Johnson.
"If I can land that one I'll be willing
to quit the game. It's Just what I've
been looking for. Tve forgotten any
hard feelings that may have existed
when Jeffries and I were running op
position fight clubs here, and I don't
think Jeffries will hold It against me.
"When the bidding begins you will
see your Vncle Tom In the front row
with as large a wad as any one. Of
course, this Involves a whole lot . of
money, and I can't swing it alone, but
I can get backing to any amount In
this town for that particular fight
Why, the people of this city will au
thorize a tax levy to get that fight.
Tou know, there never was a fighter
who owned Los Angeles the way Jeff
does."
McCarey explained that, if he suc
ceeded in landing the contest, he would
build a special arena for it, and would
be ready to accommodate the big
crowd that would come from all over
the country to witness the contest.
BRITT STILL AFTER LAVGFORD
Going East to Arrange Match With
Ketchel.
PAX FRAXC1SCO. July 28. Willis Brltt.
manager of Stanley Ketchel. the middle
weight champion, announced today that
he Intends to go East within a few days
for the purpose of arranging a match
between Ketchel and Sam Langford.
Britt expressed disappointment over
Largford's failure to accept the offer
made by Ely, Nev.. promoters which he
believes was bonafide. It is probable
that Britt will ac-ept the offer made by
the Fail-mount Club of New York; or
the National Club of Philadelphia.

"Uncle Joe's" Subtle Work.
It shou'.d be borne In mind that when
Administration circles gave a pledge of a
certain sort to the compromise agree
ment they understood had been reached
yesterday as to everything except lumber
and print paper, it was on the assump-
tton that the s-enate rates on gloves were
to stand. The President and his friends
had no suspicion that under cover of the
hide and leather exoitement. which was
to suhside with a Whtte House victory.
'I'ncle Joe" Cannon's subtle work would
reopen the giove matter and let his chum
Littauer steal a march.
Ary man with red blood in his veins
would rebel at a trick like that, and they
seem to be finding out that President Taft
has an abundance of red corpuscles. Sen
ator Aldrlch saw a side of the President
he has not had the fortune to experience
before. Aldrlch. be it remembered, is the
man upon whom the President has de
pended from the start. He has relied
upon him upon Mr. Aldrich's promises
to work out a bill that would command
the executive approval as a measure of
reasonable downward revision, which the
country would accept.
TAFT FIRM FOR CHEAP LUMBER
Xo Chance He Will Consent to .Duty
of $1.40.
OREGOXIAX NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington. July 28. Western Senators
who saw President Taft today enter
tain slight hope that he will consent
to a rate exceeding $1.25 per 1000 on
rough lumber. He has repeatedly an
nounced that is , his maximum figure
and that he would prefer $1.
The fact that the Senate conferees
today agreed to accept $1.40 where
they previously contended for $1.50 is

I an adjustment that will meet with ap-

All Points to $1.25 Rate.
It was developed today to the satis
faction of the conference that the
House will not accept $1.50 on lumber,
nor will the Senate accept the House
rate of $1. Everything tonight points
to ultimate agreement upon $1.25 un
less the President can be persuaded to
accept a higher rate. .Even then there
Is serious doubt whether the House

Senators Cummins. Dolllver and
those who stand with them for a gen
eral reduction of tariff rates today ex
pressed the hope that a conference
committee will bring In such a report
that It will be rejected by one house
of the other, thus continuing In effect
the Dingley law.
Force Real Revision Next.
It is their conviction that. If the
Payne-Aldrich bill can be defeated, pub
ic sentiment will be so thoroughly
aroused that Senators and Representa
tives who have stood out against re
ductions this session will be compelled
to yield next Winter and in that way
bring about the passage of a tariff
bill making reductions on all Important
commodities.
The Cummins-Dolliver Republicans,
according to present plans, will vote
against adoption of any conference re
port if they can muster enough votes,
added to the Democratic vote, to de
feat It.
MINERS TAKE UP CHARGES

DENVER, July 2S. The convention of
the Western Federation of Miners today
considered the cases against John R. Sul
livan, former treasurer of the Butte lo
cal. Thomas Booher and P. W. Fljn.
Sullivan, who was twice tried on
charges of shortage in his accounts as
treasurer of the Butte local, appealed

PULLIAM TRIES TO
E
National League Magnate Is
at Death's Door as Result of
Self-inflicted Wound.
NO CAUSE KNOWN FOR DEED
Shoots Self Through Head In Rooms
at New York and Later Dis
covered by Bellboy, Ly
ing Unconscious.
NEW YORK, July 2S. Harry C. Pul
llam waa still alive at ,3:15 thin morn
ing, bnt it waa said by hla physician he
could not survive more than a few
hours,
NEW YORK, June 28. Harry C. Pul-
Ham. president of the National League
of baaeball clubs, attempted suicide to
night in his rooms at the New York
Athletic Club.
Standing in the center of the room.
Mr. Pulliam held a revolver to hla
right temple. He fired only one shot.
It went in at the right temple and
came out seven inches away on the
left side of his head. The bullet de
stroyed the right eye and passed
through the upper part of the left. It
is believed he cannot recover, although
he continued conscious for some time
after the shooting.
The sound of the shooting was not
heard in any part of the clubhouse, but
Mr. Pulliam. In falling to the floor, ap
parently dislodged the receiver of a
telephone that was standing on a table
nearby. The operator on the ground
floor answering the signal, got no re
ply, and sent a bell boy to Mr. Pul
liam'a room to find out what was the
matter.
Boy Discovers Body.
' The boy found the baseball magnate
lying on the floor, half clad. Dr. Hig
gins, club physician, was hastily sum
moned and after making a hurried ex
amination, directed the coroner be no
tified. Mr. Pulliam. - although still alive
and able to speak, appeared to be too
confused to answer the physician's
questions coherently. The wounds were
carefully dressed, but the physician had
little hopes of saving Mr. Plullam's
life.
Coroner's Physician Shrady. who ar
rived about half an hour after the
shooting, assisted Dr. Hlggins. Both
attempted to get some explanation of
Pulllam's attempt to kill himself, but

Jack Johnson.
he continued too dazed to give Intelli
gible answers.
Dr. Shrady. leaning close to Mr. Pul
liam's ear, asked slowly:
"Why did you shoot yourself?"
There was no response. He repeated
the question. Mr. Pulliam roused him
self confusedly, and asked in a daxed
manner:
Why, who's shot?"
Again the question was asked, and this
time all the stricken man could answer
was a muttered, "Who's shot?"
The doctors decided that any further
questioning was likely to endanger Mr.
Pulliam's slim chances of recovery.
The sight of both eyes waa destroyed
by the bullet, the physicians said. It ap

parently entered at least the covering of
the brain", and It seemed more than like
ly the injury to the brain itself was
enough to cause death.'
Among the many papers scattered about
there was nothing to indicate the act had
been premeditated.-
Frlenda of Mr. Pulliam declared It is
their belief that his act was the result of
a sudden wild emotion,' and was done
without any forethought and without
reason.
Although the attempt was entirely un
expected, some of his friends said that
during his recent Illness It was shown'
that he was subject to severe attacks of
melancholia, and his attendants had been
reported as fearful that he would make
an attempt upon his life. Since his re
turn to New York in June he had appar
ently been in excellent spirits.
Although the shooting occurred
about 9:30. it was not for three hours
later when the newa became known.
Club authorities reported to the police
that a man named "Harry Polian" had
attempted suicide in his room there.
They said no ambulance had been
called, as the man's Injuries had been
attended by the club's physician and
the police were given to understand
that the Injuries were not likely to
prove fatal. When the police learned
that It was Harry Pulliam. they made
a hurried investigation.
PULLIAM TRUSTED BY CLUBS
His Position In League Unique in
Way He Was Regarded by All.
Harry C. Pulliam was one of the best
known men in baseball. As president
of the National League, which position
he had held for about four years, few
men enjoyed a finer reputation .for integ
rity of character and sweetness of dis
position than he. More than eight
months ago. at about the end of last
year's exciting baseball season in the Na
tional League, Mr. Pulliam was first at
tacked by the malady that undoubtedly
led him to attempt his life. Nervous
prostration, brought on by overwork and
too close attention to the trying duties
that devolved upon him as head of the
league, made him a physical and mental
wreck and made it necessary for lilm to
leave his office and all work In an en
deavor to recover his health.
This confidence he enjoyed among Na
tional League magnates could not be bet
ter shown than by the fact that he was,
granted a six months leave of absence
under full salary, and promised that
when he was ready to return his office
would be waiting forhim. Seemingly re
stored mentally and physically. Mr. Pull
iam returned to his duties the last of
June and was at once voted back into
the presidency.
By a strange coincidence. If Pulliam
dies his death will be the third in a
tragic series of sudden deaths that have
taken off as many prominent magnates
of the National League within a month.
First on the list was George B. Dovey.
a prominent street railway magnate and
president of . the Boston club, who died
on a railway train when attacked by a
sudden hemorrhage. Not two weeks ago
Israel W. Durham.' a" famous politician
and president of the Philadelphia club,
died suddenly of heart disease.
MORSE OUT ON BAIL AGAIN
Bond on Perjury Indictment by
State Is Reduced.
NEW YORK, July 28. Action taken In
the Supreme Court here today on three
state indictments against Charles W.
Morse, the ex-banker, resulted in Morse's
discharge on his own recognizance on two
of the Indictments, charging grand lar
ceny, and the reduction of bail on a
perjury indictment to $5000.
These cases have nothing to do with
the Federal charges against Morse.
