Little, for Johnson, wanted to name his choice. For the first time Jeffriea broke in. "Let the club that gets tne Dia nave a wore ne ordered. "They have as much at stake as we have. Let it wait." Little was for arguing the point, but Johnson was all conciliation. "Woll, let It go," he urged. "That's all right." The number of rounds waa next in order. Jeff Satisfies Public. "So far as I go," said Jeffries. "I don't care if it's tor tlx, ten. 20 or 100 rounds, but I know what the public will demand and I am going to see that they get it it wants a finish." To this the crowd cheered until Bob Hu.-phy had to demand order. But John son was not satisfied. lie feared a San FTancJeco club, where only 20-round bouts are allowed, might get the bid and In that event Insisted 20 rounds should be specified. "Then Frisco won't get the fight." an nounced Jeffries, decisively. "Make It 45 rounds or more." Swallowing hts objections previously voiced, the negro agreed volubly. There was still the rocft on which most agreements 6plit division of the purse. Both men protested they were willing to fight, winner take all, 60 and 40 per cent, or 75 and 23 per cent; and on the latter basis it was settled. Boilermaker Wants $20,000.

As a compromise they agreed to let the $5000 already posted to secure today's meeting stand, with 000 additional to be added forthwith. "All right," assented Jeffries, plain tively, "but I wanted that Hu.OOO." A great roar of laughter went up in the crowd and even Johnson grinned. Bob Murphy, manager of ' the Hotel Albany, was chosen as temporary stake holder, the final stakeholder to be chosen by the club. "No. suh," said Johnson, "I has a say where my money goes.' "The club has mora to say than either of us," put in Berger. Nepro Backs Down. "No man has more to say about my money than I has," affirmed Johnson, shaking his head yet he yielded while protesting. Now, only one -crucial point remained when would they fight? As a finish fight had been agreed upon it was the consensus of opinion at the ms'ehu.akerB' table that either Nevada or California must get the winning bid. Wtth SO days for the bids to come in and CO days more for the men to condition themselves in, the weather at the earliest would be too wet In California and too cold in Nevada. Both men agreed that, to arcommodat the huge crowds sure to attend, toe bout must be held out of d.Hrs. Berger further urged the neces sity for ample training time. And it was formally settled thnt a day "Not later than July 5. 1P10," be chosen. The deal was closed. Flashlight Men Busy.

There is no doubt, however, that Governor Harmon Is growing In strength throughout the country. He is an able man, and a the Democratic leader who won in a Republican state, he is gain ing more and more popularity.

Taft arranged a conference between Murphy and Herr mann. In Taft's office' today Murphy and Herrmann shook hands and renewed old friendships. As a result of the meeting, however, the $500 fine imposed by the National Commission against the Chicago club over the Pfeffer matter remains intact, and also Murphy must pay $1500 for Cole as a direct purchase, instead of $300 on a draft4 SHIP FIGHTS SEVERE GALES Storms and Insane Sailor Delay Trip From Alaska.

Judge Witten, speaking today of the attack made on the method of the open ing by Louis W.Hill, president of the Great Northern Railroad, at the Dry Farming Congress, said Mr. Hill was misquoted or misinformed, as he would not have made such "grossly extra vagant statements" had he known the facts. Mr. Hill was reported as hav ing called the recent Flathead, Coeur d'Alene and Spokane registration a "swindle," and said: 'It is estimated that 300,000 people went out there. We received our por tion of the money and we do not want that kind of money." Figures Grossly Misleading. "These figures are grossly mislead ing," said Judge Witten. "The com bined registration for all three was but 286.848 and one-third of that num ber, or 95.616, represents the number of applicants who had registered three times." Judge Witten said Mr. Hill could easily ascertain from the Government records who went out there, if he wanted to pay back the money paid to the Great Northern Railroad. The Judge later announced that he would be prepared to furnish Mr. Hill with the names of all persons who reg istered at Kalispell if the Great North ern wanted to refund their money for fares.
