If demanded by publio opinion, Memalo Is to meet Gans again. . Th second string may turn out to be a three-inch cable one of these days. Of course -"miblia onlnlon." will de mand" that the men meet a second time. Joe is probably figuring on this. At tha same time torn says h Is tired of the, fighting gam and Is ready to re tire, always provided that th sports of this country do not. insist on his fighting again. . Thera seemed .to be no prearrang mente about this transfer ox th light- i weight title. Th men met downtown this -morning and Gans offered his band. "You fought a good fight and sur prised me,'' sajd he. "I think that you can whip any matt In the world, bar ring myselfj To prove this, I am go ing to turn over to you the title of lightweight champion and I want yott to promise me that you will never draw the color line. When a good colored boy comes along, a worthy on- nnt, you are to give him a chance to win tne ohamplonshlp." Memslc promised that he would do this. "Then that goes," said Joe, and th men hook bands. - "If the'publlo demands It of me, I will fight you again." said Gans. "For th present I want to go baok to Bal timore and attend to business. If any body bothers ma ror a riant, l will send him to you a' the holder of tA title." uana uen suggestea tns Juemsio secur a match with either Nelson or Packr McFarland. lntlmatlns that h might be induced to return to Lo Angeles to meet the winner sometime this winter.
