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.

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." .

LOS ANGELES, Cal.. 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:
