THE 3IOEXIXG - OREGOXIAN, TUESDAY, JTJXE 21, 1910. . 1 T BEND' GETS FIGHT Rickard and Gleason's Repre sentative Busy Making Arrangements. NEGRO MEETS OBSTACLES Resort Proprietor Says He Does Not Want Johnson to Train at His Place Gold field Confident bat Chance Is Slight. ACTING GOVERNOR WILLING. RENO, Nev June 20. (Special.) "I know of no reason why the fight conid not be held In Nevada, upon complying with the law," said George I. Pyna, Acting Governor. Governor Dlckerson Is still In Ore gon, where he - has been for some time, owing to the Illness of his mother. Mrs. Dlckerson said, over the long-distance telephone, that the Governor's mother Is at Ontario, Or., and that his brother Is at Vale, Or-. She expects him at the Capital daily. T i- RENO, Nev., June 20. "William Mc Carney, representing Rickard and Glea son. and Sid Hester arrived in Reno this morning from San Francisco, and to-i day completed all the preliminary ar rangements for training quarters for the big fighters who are to fight on July 4. McCarney seems positive that Reno is going to land the big fight, although he said that Rickard has made no def inite statement to that effect. McCar ney is convincd that Goldfield does not offer the advantages to be found in lieno, and is very strong in his state ments in favor of this city as the scene of the fight. Business Men Meet. - This afternoon the business men's committee of Reno held a meeting and discussed the situation. It was decided to have the committee take the evening moror-car for Truckee and meet Rick ard at that place. Johnson may have trouble securing suitable training quarters in this city. It was thought that arrangements had been completed Saturday for him to train at Laughton's Springs, a short distance from Reno. Today, however, the owner of that resort said that he would not allow Johnson to train there, and William McCarney Is now looking for other accommodations for the big black. Goldfield Is Confident. The Goldfield boosters arrived in Reno last night and are confident that they will land the contest for the . southern camp. It was given out by the local rail road officials today that the Southern Pacific Company would not guarantee to handle any. special trains, in case the fight went to Goldfield, any farther than Mlna. It appears that the strike called several weeks ago on the Tono pah & Goldfield road has never been declared off, and the Southern Pacific trainmen have refused ' to work the trains any farther than Mina, which is the terminus of the Southern Pacific system in Southern Nevada. Frank Hall Arrives. Today Frank Hall, manager for John L. Sullivan, arrived in Reno. He was en route to San Francisco, but was stopped here by a telegram. Sullivan arrived in Reno this evening McCarney received instructions from joe "Woodman, today, to secure train ing quarters at Reno for Sam Lang ford. Following these instructions, McCarney received the following- tele gram from Sid Hester: "On train with Rickard. Have Reno citizens stand pat for Ketchel-Lang-Xord fight." It is thought that Ketchel will train at Sparks and McCarney is endeavoring to secure accommodations there. NEVADA MAY ALSO BAR FIGHT Disquieting Rumors Regarding Gov ernor Dickinson Startles Sports. SAN FRANCISCO, June 20'. (Special.) Purporting to come from Billv Delanev. In Jack Johnson's camp, the latest sen sation in the fight situation is the rumor that Governor Dickinson, of Nevada, will follow the example of Governor Gillett and will prevent holding the fight either in Reno or Goldfield. " No confirmation of this could be se cured, and sporting men here who know the Nevada law declare that a statute there was drawn expressly to prohibit the chief executive, the Attorney-General or District Attorneys from interfering with a fight when promoters had paid their license fee of J1000 and had secured a certificate showing that the fighters were in good physical condition and able to endure the exertions of the ring. Tex Rickard left for Reno this morn ing on a special train with Tom Flanlgan and a number of Kastern special corre spondents. He should reach Reno at 9 o'clock tonight, and it may be that he will reach a decision tonight as to the loca tion of the battle. Most of the sports here who have talked with Tex, believe he will decide in favor of Reno, because of its superior location and greater facilities for entertaining visitors. Johnson said today that he intended to leave the beach Thursday evening for Reno, but that he would wait until he received word from Tex Rickard or Man ager Flanagan that Governor Dickinson was in favor of the bout Billy Delaney also expressed himself as In favor of waiting until news had been received from the promoter. "Since Gillett .called off the fight here." he said, "we want positive information from the head man that he sanctions the match before we begin to travel. From what I hear, however, I think that Rick ard has got positive assurance from Dick inson and that the fight will come off in Nevada. We expect to hear from Tex tonight, and immediately will begin to move. Johnson and his partners will go on Thursday night, while I think I will leave about Saturday or Sunday." riunareas or inquiries have been re ceived both by the promoters and the Metropolis Trust & Savings Bank as to the disposition of the tickets which have been purchased so far by intending spec tators at the battle. These tickets have been purchased under the guarantee of the local bank, with the understanding that In case the fight is not held here the money is to be refunded. President Alfred Meyerstein, of the bank, said "Persons who have purchased tickets with our guarantee will receive their money, as we don't care to go to Nevada. There is no doubt about it- We have a trust fund amounting to more than $130,- 000, and we will naturally hold the money until there is no chance of the fight be ing held here. As soon as the promoters CARNEY H1NKS officially give up, we will return the money. That, however, may not De untu July 6." Jack Gleason said: "There la no disposition to make peo ple buy the tickets they took with the understanding that the light- would De held in California. Those who desire can have the same seats in the Nevada arena. The others will be requested to send in their cancellations at once in order that we may know where we stand." Johnson believes he should keep around the 213-pound mark, and will continue his training until Thursday, when he ex pects to leave for the Sagebrush State. He anticipates little trouble In securing available training quarters, although word was received today that the springs which he had In mind would not be open to him: in other words, the owner had declared that he would not allow the colored man to train there. XEVADAJfS HEAR PROTESTS Governor Besieged toy letters. Ask ing That Fight Be Prevented. CARSON CITY, Nev., June 20. Hun dreds of letters and many telegrams pleading that some steps be taken to pre vent the holding of the Jeffries-Johnson fight in Nevada are pouring into the office of Governor Dlckerson. There has been a continuous stream of these communi cations since the issuance of the ulti matum by Governor Gillett, of California, that the contest could not take place in that state. All manner of influence is being brought to bear upon the officials here In an ef fort to defeat the fight promoters in what is conceded to be their last stand. Governor Dlckerson Is In Oregon, but is expected home in a. few days. Private Secretary Finch said today that It would be impossible to answer the communica tions that have been received and said that no action would be taken regarding them until word has been given by the chief executive. - Supreme Justices, the Attorney-Gen eral of Nevada and prominent jurists have given it es their private opinion that there is nothing in Nevada's" laws that would empower the Governor to in terfere." said Finch today. "The law 1 plain and cloan cut and makes that sort of contests legal. I have no way of say ing what will be done." . JEFFRIES QUITS CAMP TODAY Ex-Champion Will Start for Reno on Special Tonight. BEN LOMOND, Cal., June 20. James J. Jeffries, accompanied by his trainers. sparring .partners, court jesters, one man ager and several of the women of the party, will bid adieu to Ben Lomond to morrow noon and will be off for the sage brush belt, Just over the California line. From the quiet retreat In the Santa Cruz Mountains, where Jeffries trans formed himself from farmer to fighter. the ex-champlon will go to Oakland and will spend the hours at Dick Adams' hotel until the Jeffries' special train leaves for Reno, at 9 o'clock In the evening.

June 20. (Spe cial.) Another shutout game and the Beavers victorious, 4 to 0. was the re sult of the last meeting of the series between Portland and Vernon. It was a red-hot game with a big crowd of fans drawn by the two tre mendous games yesterday. Gregg, on the mound for the visitors. pitched an excellent game throughout and was given good support. Brecken ridge, pitching for the Vernons, how ever, was ragged and two wild throws to bases, notably aided by a wild heave by Brown, gave the Beavers the chance for which they were looking and they piled up the runs. McCredie was out of the game again, Ort, playing right Held and heading the batting list. For the first five innings it was nip and tuck, neither side scoring, but both sides coming near enough to keep the fans yelling. In the sixth, with two out. Olson singled and while Bracken- ridge was holding the ball and sig nalling to Brown, started to steal sec- cond. He was more than half way there when Brackenridge came out of his trance and threw toward first, but the throw was wide and Olson scored before N. Brashear could recover the ball from the bleachers. In the eighth Speas signaled and Gregg attempted to sacrifice, but bunted to Brackenridge who overthrew first, putting Speas on third and Gregg on second. Brackenridge struck out Ort. Olson drove to Brackenridge, who threw to Brown, and Speas scored when the latter dropped the ball. Brown then overthrew second in an effort to head off Olson. Gregg scored and Olson reached third. Rapps drove to Burrell, whose throw to first hit Papps on the head, the ball rolling to the right field bleachers. Olson scored on the mis play. There was some more juggling but by- good luck for the Vernons this ended the scoring. The score: VERNON. - AB R H PO A B ftovIl. rf 4.0 1 O 0 1 N. Brashear, lb 4 0 O 9 0 O Carlisle.
