ence with the champion that as a
result of Dempsey's banishment
by the New York boxing commis
sion, the heavyweight champion
had agreed to fight Harry Wills
for him "somewhere near Chlca

The match, of conrse. depends
"on Wills' willingness to meet the

he had wired the negro's mana
ger. Paddy Mullins, and hoped to
hear from him tomorrow.
Pending conclusion of negotia
tions with Mullins, Fitzsimmons'

Fitzsimmons' announcement Ts
supported by a similar one from
Rob Roy Benton. Dempsey's presn

with the New York commission."
"Since the commission did not
even have the courtesy to reply to
uempsey'a telegram and letter."
he said, "the champion is through
trying to deal with it."
Denton stated that if for any
reason Wills refused to fight 'for
y itr.simmohs. Dempsey need not
find time hanging heavy on, his
hands, since he today had received
an offer of $7,500 a week for a

" " -1 essee Statute
CHATTANOOGA. Tenn.. Aug
4. (By Associated Tress). With
the fanfare of oratory now but a
peg in the Tennessee evolutionary
history, the battle against the
anti-evolution law dissolved ' here
today. Into a simple determination
of the constitutional questions In
volved... . ;
The . filing of a petition with
John T. Scopes as plaintiff with
the clerk' of the southern division
of the eastern district of Tennessee
federal court, seeking a temporary
order enjoining state authorities
from further enforcement of the
anti-evolution law marked the
first step. ' , ' - -
Even as this brief formality
gave .voice to a plea from the
youthful teacher "and all others
similarly situated., another bill
already had been drawn to give
vent to" a similar prayer for in-
j auction from Robert P. Wilson
and four other taxpayers of Rhea
county. Filing of the second was
delayed until after affidavits could
be received from the four addi
tional petitioners
The bill filed by Dr. John R.
Neat, chief of defense counsel for
John Thomas Scopes, convicted at
Dayton several weeks ago for vio
lation of the teaching statute,
named as defendants Governor
Austen Peay, Attorney General
Frank Thompson and Solicitor
General A. T. Stewart of the Rhea
county circuit. j
. It detailed the expense and ef
forts gone to by the petitioner to
procure an education In which
scientific subjects predominated, i
Allegations of the petition con
tended that 'the theory of evolu
tion Is a central feature of science
as taught today throughout the
world. It Is a feature and an integral-part
of scientific instruc
tion in every echool, college and
university. . j
' It is an Inseparable feature of
the modern science oFiooMgy, bi

ology, 'geology and chemistry.
Your "petitioner could hot honest
ly, conscientiously or efficiently
fulfill the duties to which he had
been appointed, to which he ha3
undertaken as an Instructor j of
science and ignore and fall to ex
pound the theory of evolution as
an integral factor and inseparable
feature of. all- modern science. ;
- "Your petitioner further alleges
that the theory .of evolution denies
and to in conflict with the etory
of divine creation of man as taught
in the Bible and your petitioner
further alleges that it Is not part

With the .public lands 'totaling
