New York, March 1. Jim Kennedy,
the flistio promoter of the Toseraite Ath
letic club of Ban, Francisco, succeeded
in matching James J.v Jeffrles and Jack
Munroe for a. 20-round bout, to take
place before the Yosemite club inJSan
Francisco about the $0th of May.
The purse of 25,000 offered by Ken
nedy proved inducement enough to se
cure the signatures of both contestants;
The purse will be divided 65 per eent to
the winner and 85 to the loser. 1 "
Bath ; the . principals posted a 15,000
forfeit with Harry Corbeit of 8anFran-clsco-to
btnd the match. Several names
were submitted as referee, among which
were Ed Smith, Jaci Welch, Phil Waud,
and Eddie Graney. The latter proved
agreeable to both1 parties and was se
lected to t officiate as referee of the
coming contest.
ThejBact date of the contest will 'be
announced shortly. It will be conducted
under straight Marquis pf Queensbury
rules, flj-e-ounce gloves to be used. Both
man have agreed not to fight between
now and the date of the contest .Jef
frie will start for California during the
present week, and start training Immedi
ately upon his arrival, for he Is con
siderably overweight at present, and
will need a long season of hard train
ing to reduce himself to fighting weight.
Munroe will Journey to California by
easy stages, probably arriving there
about the first of April.'
The light followers all over the coun
try are universally pleased over, the
match, and although most of them an
ticipate an easy victory for Jeffries, they
are nevertheless satisfied that a match
between the bollermaker and the miner
has finally been arranged.

Christie Matthewson, the star pitcher
for the Giants has varied his method
of delivery. Several batters caught on
to his little trick of suddenly dropping
the ball under the bat of the man at
the plate, and did some lining. In 1902,
It will be remembered, Matthewson had
great success with . his peculiar de
livery, and it was last year that he wat
found out. Now he has changed his
manner of delivery and is practicing it
He noticed several of the star pitchers
had changed their pace, and he set about
to do likewise.. It was hard for him, at
first, but ho soon became used to It, and
now thinks bis shoots will be as puszllng

YOST'S SCHEME TO
SECURE ATHLETES
Yost's method of getting crack ath
letes from California for Michigan has
been, disclosed by the Rose case, says
an exchange. Yost tells the athlete de
sired that he will be "well cared for If
he chooses Michigan for his alma mater"
and offers him a "lucrative position on
the library staff." The Californlan
"accepts terms," as they say in the real
professional field, and asks for trans
portation to Ann Arbor. On his arrival
he learns', according to Michigan dis
patches, that Yost "has no authority to
make such offers," that the "lucrative
position" specified pays the munificent
sum of "1)6 cents a week," and that the
fraternity to which he was "pledged"
before arrlvaLdoesnot-xistr By-thls
time the athlete is over 2,000 miles from
home. Yost won't give him transporta
tion to return," of course, and, rather
than walk, he remains until he can earn
enough cents to pay his car fare
to California. That requires several
years, and. naturally, the athlete, being
a sportsman, Is willing to compete on
Mlehtgan's-varalt y-t earns intherlntertm;
It is a great scheme and is wholly
within the letter of the college confer
ence rules, but any otaer scheme would
smell no worse than dees the Rose base.
BOWLING NOTES
The monthly bowling tournament
which 'takes place tonight on the Port
land alleys promises to be a warmly
contested affair. - Suitable prizes have
been offered, and a large number of con
testants have proven themselves elig
ible for Ue event
The "Night Owls" are practicing every
evening and are rapidly developing Into
a crack team. Last evening four mem
bers of the team did some excellent
work on the alleys. The scores made
were as follows: Cal Jllly, 142, 163, 149,
164, 149; Jerry Trott 144, 162, 148, 166,
156, 148; Sam Vjgneux. 159, 169, 155, 149,
127; Doe Hamby. 157, 156, 148, 138, 175.
Henry Kopp threatens to Jump the
8chillers and cast his fortunes, with
Jerry Trott' s "Night Owls."
Hugo Slebels and Lee Van Horn of
the George Lawrence team are two bowl
ers who stand an excellent chance of
capturing some of the honors this even
ing. Manager Con Banner of the Sohlllers
states that as yet np date has been set
for the game with the Blake-McFallB,
but that the contest would probably be
pulled off Friday evening.
Jerry Trdtt says ZUly bribed the pin
boy when he secured the last two strikes
last evening..
Doe Hamby made a good record In
the' last game bowled last evening and
should have had a 200 score but for an
unfortunate miss. "
, There is a prospert of developing a
bowling team from among the stars of
this city to send east and participate In
the championship- tourney next Febru
ary, An excellent advertisement for
the fair would be to send such a team
and call them the Lewis and Clarks of
Portland.

San Francisco, March l! Young Cor-'
bett once more demonstrated his ability
and right to be feacherwelght, champion,
by defeating , Dave Sullivan of New
York Oity in , decisive fashion In the
11th round of a scheduled -20-round con
test last night before the Yosemite club
of this city. The fight was stopped by
Referee Graney, who clearly, saw that
Sullivan was. whipped, The- punish
ment administered to , the-New Yorker
was severe, and had a telling effect.
At' na time, was the champion In dan
ger. and, after "glVlngSulllvan the worst
beating of his entire career, left the
ring without bearing a scratch, save the
customary abrasions caused by clinch
ing and mixing up.
In the fourth round Sullivan nearly
saw his finish. After being knocked
down twice for the - count of nine, the
game fellow got up and clinched in time
to avert a knockout. The sound of the
bell was welcome to him. In the fifth
round again Corbet sent him to the
floor twice for periods of seven seconds,
after giving him terrific stomach
punches. - Regaining his feet, Sullivan
sent the entire crowd into an uproar
by showing great strength and speed,
smashing Corbett right and lefc This
was the beginning of the end of the man
from Gotham. From that time on Sul
livan had to clinch repeatedly to save
himself, and in the last part of the bat
tle, was wabbling around the ring, bleed
ing profusely. In the 11th round Sul
livan was almost unconscious from the
punishment he received, but gamely
stood his ground, Until Referee Graney
came to his rescue, after the crowd had
beseeched him to call it off. Graney
then gave Corbett -the decision, although
Sullivan v;as not knocked 'out. -i
The first and last rounds will give an

The San Francisco Bulletin's Bakers
fleld correspondent has the following to
say about Morris Steelman, the Browns'
new catcher, in a game at Bakersfleld
last week:
"Steelman Is a catcher, but took con
trol at first base. He undoubtedly will
be the bleacher boys' dearest friend and
theOmark for the-cartoonist when the
big pennant chase commences. His style
Is peculiar, slender, extremely loose
jointed, especially while moving. He
swings his feet and appears to juggle
his hands, and In taking care of thrown
balls does not move until the sphere Is
about to hurt htm, then he takes care
of it like an automaton. His work Bun
day 'demonstrated genuine ability, field
ing witn ease and clever at bat."
In conversation with a Bulletin rep
resentattve at the Southern Tiotel the
other, night Manager Ely said that there
was some talk of him losing Louis
Castro. He declared emphatically that
tnis cannot De allowed.
. There has been quite a marked falling
off In registration of voters within the
last week or 10 days,1 and the total
number enrolled is now but little In ex
cess of the number at the corresponding
time two years ago. :JVhen the county
clerk's office closed last night, the regis
trations .numbered 11,226. while on the
same day of 1902 the record was 10,988.
The recent average of registrations has
been only about 200 per day,, so that
unlesfs a marked Improvement Is shown,
the total will soon fall below that of
1902. . ' ? t" "';.,'',; ,;-V-
The continuous rainy weather may ao
count In some part for the small num
ber of voters registering, but this alone
does noti seen a sufficient explanation.
Two weeks ago the registrations .were
about 2.S00 In excess Of the total at the
corresponding date In 1902, but this galnl
has now been almost entirely wipea out.
The question arises -whether the Repub
lican leaders, who have been figuring
upon a large access of new voters In the
primaries, will not find that this ex
pectation is mistaken. Mtltchell men
have argued that Republicans who have
oome to the city since the last cam
paign would naturally ally themselves
with the "regular" -Republicans, Tather
than with the Independents, and they
have counted upon considerable acces
sions from this source. But the regis
tration figures suggest that the new
comers may prefer to hold aloof from-
the factional fight at the primaries, and
may not register until It is over, taking
part only In the election. Among the
Democrats, registration has been slow,
and with no proupect of any contest in
their own party at the primaries, a
larger proportion of them will probably
wait until the primaries are over before
enrolling their names at the . county
clerk's office. -
The registration lists have been care
fully checked up by both Mitchell and.
Simon workers, with results which each
faction asserts are eminently satisfac
tory. "Fully 80 per cent of the voters
registered .from my ward will be with
us," said One ardent, Mitchell Republi
can a who lives In the Third ward.
"That's all bosh," commented an active
worker of the rival faction. "We carried
all but one precinct ln that ward in the
last campaign and we will carry them
all thlrf time."
Simon Republicans are claiming that
they will carry practically all of the 86
city precincts west of the river, and a
large number of precincts on the east
Side. They are making a quiet but ap
parently none the less vigorous cam
paign, and like their opponents they are
conducting a house to house canvass all
over the city. They admit that their
hardest battle ground will 'be the east
side, but even there they feel confident
of capturing enough precincts to give
them, with their delegates from the
west side and from the country, the con
trol of the convention.
Mitchell Republicans on the other
hand ridicule theClalms of their oppo
nents, and Judge Carty characterizes
them as "mere bombast." 'The asser
tlon that ' they will carry everything
west of the- river is absurd, he said.
"There are a number of precincts on
that side which they cannot carry. As
for the 'east side there are one or two
precincts which may afford them fight
ing ground, but we shall carry prac
tically all of the east aide, as well as
the country. .We carried the east side
and the country two years ago, and I see
no reason why we should not do so
again."
In the primaries two year ago, the
Mitchell forces carried 14 of the east
side precincts and - seven went for
Simon. '
- Simon Republicans Insist that they
will have the support of a considerable
number of Democratic voter!. While it
is true that some Democrats have ex
pressed an Intention of voting at the
Republican primaries, such action has
been strongly condemned by the leaders
of the party, who have earnestly advo
cated the policy of avoiding any inter
ference in the factional fights of the
Republicans.
The date of the primaries Is Still un
certain. County Clerk Fluids, whose
duty it Is to fix the date, will be gov
erned by tho recommendation of the Re
publican County central committee,
which 1 means the managing committee
of the Mitchell faction. That body has
not yet considered the question. Judge
Carey says he Is unable to say whether
the committee will accept the recom
mendation of the state central commit
tee and fix the date as April 2, or
whether an earlier date will be con
sidered advisable. '

THINKS HIM AGENT
AFTER CHORUS GIRLS
A big policeman with an eye to per
forming his duty and a well dressed
young man with an eye on a row of
pretty chorus girls, who were enjoying
the show at Cordray's theatre, furnished
a little excitement In the balcony of the
Washington street playhouse Sunday
night. The incident was the ejection of
the young man by the officer.
The pollcemdn was from Portland,
the girls of the Olympia Opera company
and the young man who. Manager Stev
ens thinks, is an agent for the Bos
tonlans. 'The Olympia company, which
opens at Cordray's tonights passed
through Portland several days ago en
route to the Sound. At that time the
Bostonlans were piaying here. Man
ager Stevens of the Olympia thought
the Bostonlans attempted to hire some
of his chorus girls at that time, so when
he returned to Portland, he took pre
cautions to guard against such an act.
Some of the girls attended Cordray's
Sunday and took seats in the balcony.
A special officer waa employed by Stev
ens to watch, them. Just as the curtain
dropped on the next to the last act the
officer observed a young man making
his way toward the girls. Without a
word the guardian of the Olymplas
seised the fellow by the scruff of the
neck and walked- him from the place.
That was all. The lights flashed, the
orchestra struck up the creepy music
and all eyes Were again turned toward
the stage.
