whose great ring career came to a pitlful end when he fell before Champion j Jack Johnson here In the arena yester-
day, left the scene of his defeat at 7:30 o'clock tonight. He is headed toward his alfalfa ranch in Southern California and there in the quiet'of his fields, surrounded by the hills he loves, he will try to forget. In the meantime he will spend a few days in San Francisco straightening out h's business affairs. The Jeffries car was hitched to the regiilar evening train. He motored into the city from his camp at Moana Springs wth Berger and other members of his party an hour before train time and hid himself as soon as possible from the curious gaze of the crowd that still thronged the streets of the world's fight capital. In his every stumbling movement, in his bowed head, in the depths of his somber eyes, in his nervous rubbing of His swollen face and blackened eyes, in his almost timid shrinking from the public, the great ' Jeffries showed that
his defeat had dealt him a vital blow!
and that he never would be again the man he was a few hours before. Gaze On J-eff In Silence. There was silence as he passed through the streets. Men rushed forth from the gambling tables to gaze, but no word of taunt or derision, wasthrown at him. Those who saw that fight, and that includes nearly everybody in Reno, knew that Jeffries did his best. The train was lost in the red glow that the sun shed over the Sierras. Jeffries had gone int ohistory. In the other direction, somewhere In the desert of the east, a hilarious band of negroes were journeying with the banner of the world's champion floating from the car window. Special trains have been pulling out of Reno all of last night and all day today trying to get 10,000 visitors back home. Thousands stood along the platform, grips in hand, waiting to clamber Into the next train. Thousands gave up and decided to wait for lighter traffic. As a consequence the gambling houses were running full blast and the main street presented the aspect of a frontier mining camp at the height of a gold strike. Wire Home For Money. A determined 'effort was made by the losers in the fight betting to recoup their losses and at last accounts there were many who will have to wire home for money. The financial condition of hundreds, hit by the fight and the games, is desperate.
Santa Claus In his wildest moments never ran one-two-six with the white sox in the good fellow race. "When it comes to handing the other chaps just what they want lay a bet on Duffy's boys. It took them ten crazy innings, fraught with lofty tumbling, occasional flashes of brilliant fielding, a bit of swatting, to hold the browns even for
nine rounds yesterday. Then Senator
Scott, big-hearted Jim, served the beans in the form of a wild pitch, letting the Mound City misfits drag oil the finale, 6 to 5.
EASY FOB CUSS, 11-3; PIBATESJBE FLIGHTY Each Side Makes Nine Hits, But Pittsburg Plays a Weak Article of Ball.
Pitts-burg, July 5. In an alleged game of baseball on Forbes field today
the cubs overwhelmed the pirates, 11 to
3. Viewed from any angle, it was the
weakest and most slovenly article of
the popular pastime put up by the home team In the last decade. The pirates
were guilty of too many sins" of
omission and commission for the ordinary fan to keep run of. In vain did Clarke change twirlers, the cause was
of deeper root today.
"While the pirates were only able Vo
tally three runs on nine hits the cubs
chalked up eleven circuits on the same number of bingles. As a matter of fact, the game, so far as the playing of the pirates was concerned, was a fiasco pure and simple. Without half trying the cubs piled up run after run and seemed to be able at any "stage of the game to start a score.

CniGfl Oil TO BAR PICTUREHF BATTLE Protests Made in Several Cities To Prevent Reproduction of Fight.
HIT BOXING AT LOS ANGELES Los Angeles, Cal., July 5. Mayor Alexander today added his influence to the pressure which developed today largely due to the defeat of Jim Jeffries, Los Angeles' pride, for a change in the ordinances which will put a stop to prize fighting, in Los Angeles. The council favors the proposition. "Jim Jeffries was beaten yesterday," saij one member of the council today, "so let's stop it all.' The following message was presented by the mayor: "I would respectfully recommend that your honorable body so amend the ordinances of the city so as to prohibit all prize fighting or public boxing contests within the city limits. It may be all right to permit
amateur boxing contests in athletic!
clubs, where no entrance fee is charged and only members of the club and their guests are permitted to be present, but certainly prize fighting as a business should be stopped."
JEFF WORTH $250,00 Los Angeles, Cal.. Julv 5. Tn thi
city, which has been James J. Jeffries' '. home for years, the interest in the outcome of yesterday's championship bat-j tie was intense. Almost the entire popillation was convinced Jeffries would j be the victor. At the former cham- j pion's home it was announced that he I is expected here, accompanied by his
wife. Wednesday, and that he will settle down in Los Angeles. Those in a position to know said that with his end of the purse and other perquisites Jeffries' fortune at this time is considerably more than $250,000. The general feeling in Los Angeles is one of sorrow that yesterday's battle went against Johnson's white antagonist, who always has been popular here. The final flash that Johnson was the victor was received In silence by the crowds surrounding the bulletin boards.
The motion pictures of the JeffriesJohnson battle at Reno, for which an eastern syndicate spent approximately $200,000 and which are being hurried to Chicago for exhibition, may have to be consigned to the junk heap in a short time if the movement inaugurated yesterday bears fruit. The attitude of local authorities throughout the country also seriously threatens the investment made by the syndicate, and the hopes of many people of sporting- blood, unable to journey to Reno, who wished to see the battle on canvas, may be similarly blasted. No sooner had the fight taken place than a committee of the Baptist clergy of the District of Columbia filed a protest with the authorities in Washington against the exhibition of the pictures in the government domain. The authorities will act on this protest today. If the protest is upheld, it will be a signal for a similar movement in every state of ' the union. Already the canvas production of the fight is barred from Cincinnati on the ground of public safety. Mayor Louis Schwab maintaining that racial prejudices would thereby be revived. Yesterday he made the following de. claration: "I will not allow the pictures of the Johnson-Jeffries fight to be shown in Cincinnati. I do not think it would be elevating to allow them to be seen, and it would not be consistent to bar an actual fight and then allow a photographic reproduction. We may proclaim from the housetop that the fight was not a matter of raoe, yet the fact remains that it is made such by the lower elements of both races. I wUl throw whatever strength I have to prevent any addition to this terrible blunder of the age and while I am mayor there will be no exhibition of these pictures." A similar att!tudehZs-beentaken-T)y the Baltimore municipal authorities and it is more than probable that the movement will extend through the south. '

CHICAGO SPORTS ONWAY HOME Ogden, Utah, July 5. The special carrying 140 disgrunted Chicago sports in charge of Lou Houseman, arrived here tonight on its way east. The fact that the majority are returning at all is due to the foresight of having provided themselves with return tickets. Practically the whole troupe went down In one grand financial crash when Jeffries hit the floor in the fifteen th round yesterday. It was a Jeffries crowd almost to a man. The biggest loser is "Andy" Craig, who, it is said, dropped something over $10,000. " j In addition to its human freight the special is also carrying nine heavily guarded cases of fight films. These will '.?a developed in Chicago. The train is duo to reach Chicago over the Northwestern Railroad some time Thursday, probably .in advance of the train carrying Jack Johnson and party.
