San Francisco, Cal., June 6. With
some semblance of premeditation on Jack Johnson's part, the trouble be
tween him and his manager, George
Little, came to a head yesterday, the champion using Slg Hart of Chicago, as an issue, and calling policemen Into
the affair by stationing them at the
entrance to his training quarters with
Instructions to protect Hart while collecting admission fees from' the fa' t assembled to watch Johnson's trainili stunts.
"Yes, I'll need protection, for this
man has threatened my life," spoke up Hart, pointing to Little, who was essaying to exert his authority as boss of the Johnson camp.
Little, who claims to have the pugilist under a cast iron contract thfl runs until May, 1911, displayed enough excitement to bring from the police a suggestion that he had better avoid any breach of the peace. It was noticed by the few sporting men present throughout the near-battle that
lyttle kept his hand in a pocket, from
hlch It was surmised that he might
start something any moment.
"I discKSTge you, sir," said Johnson,
loftily, to his manager.
"Rubbish. I am running you and
your affairs and you can't fool me,"
retorted Little, his hand still In his
pocket.

sumed the role of peacemaker , and
purged Little and Johnson to avoid air
ing their difficulties in public.
Those keeping tab on affairs around Johnson's camp declare there are
wheels within wheels in this affair.
