THE WORLD'S BOXING CHAMPIONSHIP:
JEFFRIES . SQUIRES, AUSTRALIAN,
Unless somebody backs down in the next. forty-eight hours a fight for the heavy-weight championship of the world will be arranged between James J. Jeffries and Bill Squires óf Australia, with Rhyolite, ev, as the battle. ground and $jo,ann the purse. According to the latest advices from California, Jefferies agreed to make this match yesterday, stipulat. ing that the fight should by decided in April, which would give him about abres months in which to get himself in proper physical trim," The much talked of $5,000 purse vanished.in thin air when Jeffries began to talk business with Frometer Skinner of the Rhyolite A.C., who told the big pugilist plainly that $50,000 was the largest offer possible, in view olibgun. known quality of Squires as a pugilist" Bat such a paltry sum did not deter Jeff from ac cepting terms at once, at the same time wiring. Shinners backer, B... F. Taylor, at Rhyolite, that ev'rything was satisfactory.",
Squires was heard from in a roundabout way. He did not send, a reply to the cable grams sent to him at Newcastle by both Sklo,:: ner and Taylor, bat ha, cabled a San Fran....... cisco newspaper that he would sail for America on January 28 on the steamer Sonoma to meet. Jeffries for the $30,000 prizas en condition that the expenses of himself and trainer across the Pacific Ocean were rar" guaranteed by the
hyolite A.C. This puts it up quarely to the Rhyolite people, and if they wire the Australian' pugilist that his, terms are accepted there will be nothing left but the signing of articles to clinch the big fight. The fact that the Frisco, flight trust had never made an attempt to bring. Squires to this country as a prospective oppo- nent for Jeffries is said to have been due to a knowledge that the Australian as a fighter was never of much account. But the Nevada fight promoters evidently care nothing for Squires's record so long as they ir duce Jeffries, to re- enter the ring,
As the Sun has already pointed out, Squires physically is no match for the gigantic boiler- maker. The Antipodena is only 5 feet 9 inchen tall and weighs in ring togs about 172 pounds, He is said to be powerfully built, however, and to resemble Tom Sharkey when be puts up his hands, but the fact that he has never beaten.

pear that he is going up against it when he Tackles the Alherican champion. Jeffries wasts three-months to get in shape because he sayı he now weighs 200 pounds. He intends to re ditice to 130 and declares that he will be as fast as ever, without an oupce of supeifluous flesh, when he gets into the ring. On this basis Jož will be nearly sixty pounds heavier than Squires and about four inches taller, an immense ad- vantage taking everything into consideration.
Some persons are inclined to believe that Jeffries because of his long absence from the ring may not be able to recover his old form, but the champion has a world of confidence in himaell and that means a great deal. It is.' generally supposed that in agreeing to mest Jeffries Squires will hold out for a big loter's end of the purse. If he insists upon 60 and 49 per cent, and gets such a division it will ba worth his while to take a good, beating, pro... viding his transportation to and from this country costs him nothing. t is the only chance that Squines has ever had to cut up. big money and in the estimation of sporting men he would lack, good business and judg.. ment to pass it up. On the Coast it is conceded, that a jeffries-johnson mill would prove the best drawing card, but Jeff sees easier gathe op doubt, in a sure thing mixup with Squiran. it looks like the softest thing that Jeffries has .ever encountered.
