HERE THEY ARE--THE THREE BLACK HOPES
HAVANA, April O. -The city of
Iluvmiti today was fa-l resuminj; i
customury aspect niter the intrusion
yesterday upon ittf normal lite of the
excitement nnd enthusiasm incidental
to the pnssing of the world' heavy
weight e.bnmpionwhip from Jack John
pon to Jcks Wlllnnl. The citizens of
llnvann are planning ! Kv bc "ow
champion n public reception tonight
nnd present htm with a e.old watch.
rpeelutors, tourist ami lijjut pro
moters are leaving the ei.y an fast
an facilities offer.
The men most interested in the
battle took little pa it in the general
celebration of it last nigh'. Willnrd
HjM'iil the early evening sie,htsceinf;
with friend from Kansas, after
which lie had dinner and went early
to bed. The promoters were at the
racetrack until long after midnight
conning tho gate receipts. The of
fieial totnl is not yet known. The sil
ver coins of nil denominations taken
in at tho racetrack are piled tip in
barrels and alongside of them arc
stacks of bills, many of them old and
ditty and almost falling nimrt.
Mystery of IllvnpiHNmuico
Tho myMory of Johnson's disap
pearance is now explained. He went
to the racetrack to sec the gate money
counted, although he bad no financial
interest in the receipts, and nt the
name time to keep awav from visitors.
There is reason to believe the gate
receipts exceeded $120,000. The ab
sence of the negro from his house led
to wild rumors last niuht that he was
in a hospital, serioifly injured.
Willard and his promoters and sup
porters will leave Wednesdnv for
Key Vvst. Johnson, accompanied by
bis wife and some friends, expects to
leave Havana the latter part of the
week for the French island of Martin
irine, in the West Indies.
More, than 1000 ioinnp, tourists,
.fight spectators and others now in
Havana expect to make their way to
Key West during the next two days,
Boats and trains will bo taxed to capacity.
A record in the amount of news
and private cables moved out of Ha
vnna in one day has been established.
Sixty thousand wonls were cleared on
the cable lines during the last twen
ty-four hours.
Johnson came downtown at noon.
He was dressed with bis eus'oninry
brilliancy. A big crowd followed him
about, condoling with him and prais
ing him. Tho fanner champion fre
quently lapsed into moody spells.
9200,000 for Movies
Johnson had several conferences
today with promoters who wanted to
buy his fiO per cent intcrcxt in the
moving pictures of the contest. The
negro said he has been offeicd .filll),
0(1(1. He insisted he would not sell.
Johnson talks of taking a long sea
voyage, possibly to China. Ho says
he wants to get away from crowds
and forget the result of the fight. He
offers no excuses for his defeat.
Willard is loo big, Johnson declar
ed, for the average sized heavyweight
ever to defeat.
Willard was also downtown today,
but thu two fighters did not see each
other.
Great crowds followed the new
champion wherever ho went. Willard
begins packing this afternoon and is
planning to leave Havana tomorrow.
