Tho Dauforth party wero given to understand that Mc- Mliliua wns a professional lighter, and believing, therefore, that he was wull poa'ied upou the rules aud would treat tho contestants with equal fairness they mudo no objection to hie aelectioa.

He is very Bore ovtr Dariforth's chai'ge of unfairness. Ho aaid: "It Is all very well for Danforth to talk when he Is New Orleans and I am in Memphis. "As fat ns tho statements that! allowed Brennau to foul him several times, I can say that Danforth also deliberately fonled Brennan, nnd the statement that my decisions were unfair ia utterly false. Danforth knows this, nnd as for allowing nau more time thnu he waa entitled to, why that Is equally false. I did iiotliUu such statements at first, but paid tlon to the matter until he began to talk too loud In New Orleans, so I therefore want to nut In my little say.

I never saw licked man yet that did not have a thousand excuses to offer. "Danforth will have to fight Brennau njjnin or maka a sneak.
