JOHNSON EXPECTS VICTORY CHICAGO, November 2. Jack Johnson, ambitious to get the pugilistic scalp of Alfalfa Jim Jeffries, returned to Chicago yesterday, making a noise like a champion. He started training for the fray by hustling to the municipal court, where lie paid an appearance fee of $3 In the Huit broucht aeainst him by his former trainer, Yank Kenny. The suit, was filed last week and comes up next week before Hume. To say that the colored heavyweight is pleased with his success In getting the boilermaker's Varae to a set of articles Is putting it mildly.

The big black fighter grinned from ear" to ear when asked If he would beat Jeffries when the pair meet. "If I thought I could not beat Jeff," said Jack, "I'd never have signed articles." Johnson wllljf-oon begin a short theatrical tour. IleVill be In New York again Inside of a month, when the bids for the championship battle are opened. After the swarding of the battle Johnson Intends to put in close to three months of solid training. More Confident Than Ever.

Since seeing Jim 'Jeffries In New York, when articles were signed for heavyweight championship battle, Johnson Is more confident than ever that he can whip the boliermaker. "Jeffries did not speak to me at all, and 1 didn't expect him to. If what has been said about his feelings is true, then he surely Is sore, and as I didn't go Into that meeting to make friends with him I an Just as well satisfied. "It will serve my purpose Just es well to have him good and mad when he enters the rinir. He will get a worse licking than ordinarily If that is the case.

A man enraged can not show good Judgment at rry time. "There is one thing that I am delighted with. I have shown my sincerity In making this match, and thereby unarmed all of the crities who have been bernting me for cowardice and the like. The fact that 1 went clear across the continent when I should, by all that Is right and Just, havo forced Jeffries to come to me, has disarmed all of those fellows who swore that I never would screw up the courage to face Jeffries, even for the jnir-Poho of slirning articles. I found mere w-ts nothing bo terrible about Jeffries at alt.

Langford Must Post Money. "I will pick up a few theatrical dates probably and put In the time that way until I see where this battle Is going to be and when and all about it. Then I will plan differently. "I see my colored brother, Sam I.ang-for 1, is retting up on his high and yelling for a match. He can have one, vou bet.

but as I have' sld before, he must post a forfeit of to show me that he Is not using my name to advertise himself and that he wul go through with any contract that we may That's the only way in which Air. Iang-for 1 can get an audience with me." Johnson did not have much to say about the Morv froi.i Galveston to the effeot that he "is building hs mother a hnii. ther. He a-lmltted that he was f.en,lmg her n'vit a month for living expenses, and his press aent added: "lt just as well be admitted right at ie start that Arthur is good to his ks. All lighters are supposed to be that." H00S1ERS FEARED BY ILLIM Downstaters Regard Sheldon's Indiana Team as Tough proposition.

CHAMPAIGN. November 2. Indl-ena looms up Saturday as a tough proposition for lllinl football players who worked bard yeterday In preparing for the invasion of Illinois field by Sheldon's ohiryes. The lllinl have looked ah-ad to the lioosler game and now that Purdue is disposed of expect a far different tussle.

OFFER TO STOP TWO BOXERS NEW YORK, November. '2. "Just as soon as the matter of the bids Is settled, Jeffries will tour the country with a company, offering to knock two men out at each performance." So said Manager Sam Berger last night "We are simply swamped with offers for short bouts and several startling propositions have, come from Philadelphia and Pittsburg. Jeff and I have talked It over and lie wants to prove to the public tha he Is thoroughly capable of fitting himself to take up the white man's cause. "Jeff Isn't against trying his liand at some of the six-round bouts lth any of the good heavyweights now clamoring for recognition.

Particularly does he favor the Idea of going on the road with an athletic-theatrical show, with an offer to stop two men at each performance. In that way be hopes to regain his confidence. "Now, mind you. that doesn't mean that Jeff has lost heart. Nothing of the sort.

This sort of work would be rather to work off the strangeness that is bound to follow an extended absence from the ring. A man loses distance, and it doesn't follow that he Is going to pick It tip In the gym or on the road. Only actual bouts In which you can count on the unexpected from the fellow iu front of you will be beneficial. Simply eparring with a partner doesn't mean- anything more than to bolster up your wind. Will Follow Old-Timers' "John L.

Sullivan, Bob Fitzsimmons and other great fightefs kept In shape between fights by going about the country bowling over all comers. If we adopt that measure we will go through it no matter who looms 'up In the audience and signifies a willingness to try for the substantial reward that will be- given to the man who is able-to walk on the staee after -JefT gets throunh with him. "It, would be funny if Al Kaufmann, Jack O'Brien, Jim Flynn or any of that erowd should bob up in some jerkwater town and demand a crack at little Jim. Well, they'll be accommodated. "Jeff never shirked an Issuer not even the big thing now In his mind.

would be a sort of preliminary dash before he took up real training camp work. People sniffed when he accepted twenty weeks of theatrical work at a fancy price before announcing his intentions in regard to Johnson. They didn't realize that Jeff was being paid an Immense sum for training. t'W'e used to laugh many a time to ourselves back of the scenes after a hard bout and a workout. Jeff was being paid for getting Into condition and he enjoyed the Joke of the thing many a time.

I suppose they wllr talk ebout his going on the road beating farmers and the like, but he will be getting Into shape with every sc-tto." DONOVAN BOSTON LEADER. He May Succeed Lake as Manager of the Red Sox. BOSTON, November 2. John I. Taylor, president of the Boston American League baseball team, and Patsy Donovan, former manager of the Brooklyn National League and the Washington American League teams, are in conference today, anl It is practically assured that the conferences will end in the selection of Donovan to' manage the Red Sox next year.

The resignation of Manasrer Fred Lake, bemuse Taylor-refused to give him a bonus for the great work done by the team this year, was an unpleasant surprise for the Boston fans. Bake did wonders with a green team and the Red Sox supporters had visions of a pennant next year with Lake at the helm. Donovan's connection with former tail-enders does not arouse enthusiasm at the prospect of his selection. Lake will probably acquire an Interest in a minor league team, possibly at Lowell. PURDUE EXPECTS BIG SCORE Wabash Weakened by Conference Rule Barring Freshmen.

(Special to The Inil: najKilla LAFAYKTTK. November 2. The Purdue football squad had only a light slsrnal pract'ee last nitrht. Many of the men were FtirT from the game Saturday asrainst Illinois. The field was heavy, and despite a continued drizzle of rain the men worked hard.

About thlrty-tive men were out. On Saturday Purdue will meet Wabash. The Little Giants will be greatly weakened owing to tne fact that many of their men will be unable to participate. The conference forbids any coileire in the organization contesting In foot bail acalnst any college usine freshmen. Wabasn will have to compietely reoman'ze its team.

MADISON, November 2. Speaking to a crowd of over five thousand students and townspeople who congregated at the gymnasium, last night, to welcome home the Wisconsin baseball tam, which had been touring Japan, Dr. Charles McCarthy declared that the Badgers did more to cement the friendship between the United States and the island empire than any event of recent times. Dr. McCarthy told of the royal welcome which the mikado's subjects gave to the Wisconsin team, and related many Interesting experiences which he and the players went through.

Other speakers were President Van Hise, Professor Paul S. Relnsch and members of the team. Attorney-General Frank T. Gilbert presided. Nine games were played by the Badgers, five being victories.

Peck Nash pitched ail the games won, pitcher Knight having Injured his arm in the second game. Toklo la baseball mad. "When the Keio university team won the first two games played with Wisconsin In extra Innings the enthusiasm was intense. The first fame went eleven Innings and resulted to 3 and the second nineteen innings and Keio won, 2 to 1. Both games were remarkably well played and It Is small wonder that the populace went baseball mad.

BUTLER IN POOR SHAPE. Only Five Regular Practice for Rose Poly Game. The prospects for Butler making a creditable showing In the game next Saturday with Rose Poly at Terre Haute are small, the team being badly crippled as a result of the game with DePauw last Saturday. Most of the Injuries, however, are slight, with the exception of Lech. Butler's right end, who was laid out in the early pert of the game with an Injury to his thigh, and who can hardly be put in- shaie for the coming game.

Roberta is also out with a bad ankle. Batton is expected to be In condition, while Sparks' was out for practice last night. Only five regulars reported last night for practice, while many returned home today to vote, which will make It hard to get In any work before tomorrow. Since one or two substitutes will have to tie usej in the lineup, coach Gipe Is anxJ Ions to get in as much work as possible before Saturday. Many who witnessed the game Butler played 4ast week attributed the defeat to the poor condition of the men from failure to follow the training rules laid down by-coach Gipe.

The smallness of the Butler squad was also In a way responsible tor the defeat, since It was Impossible for Butler to make a substitution without materially weakening he strength of the team. DePauw, on the other hand, frequently gained by the substitution. WORK HARD FOR MICHIGAN. Notre Dame Expects Yost's Machine to Prove Tough Proposition. Special to Th Indiannpolls News.J NOTRE DAME.

November the exception of Miller and Dwyer all of coach Longman's warriors reported for active work yesterday afternoon. Miller Is slightly used up on account of the roughness of the game while Dwyer Is nursing a badly bruised leg. but both will be In good condition by Saturday. Although the workout yesterday was light, coach Longman Intends to give the men the hardest week's practice that they have experienced this season. Since the Mlchiganders showed up with such surprising strength last Saturday Longman Is expK-ting the hardest game of the season when the Catholics line up against Yost's machine of veterans.

The team that Longman will send Into the fray Saturday is. man for man, almost the same team that gave Yost such a scare at Ann Arbor -last year. On last Saturday the varsity pushed the Pitt lads all over the field, but were able to score only one touchdown. Longman asserted yesterday that if the men put up the same style of play Saturday that he would not be worried as to the. results of the contest.

KNOCKS ON "BIG EIGHT" DOOR Marquette University to Apply for Admittance at Meeting of Conference MILWAUKEE. November 2. Marquette university this fall will make application for admittance to the "Big Flight" conference. This was decided at a meeting of the Marquette advisory board last night. At the next conference meeting Marquette will send representatives and a formal request that the local university be given equal representation with the other big institutions of the middle west will be made.

It Is doubtful whether the proposal will be looked upon favorably, as the conference authorities have shown a disposition In the past to turn down aspiring schools. WIFE TO FIGHT DIVORCE BILL Mrs. Edgar Willett, Detroit Hurler's Spouse, to Contest Suit. DETROIT, November 2. Mrs.

i CRANE, hv itm f'riT rvnroTrn TO AFFECT- FOOTBALL THAT IS THE OPINION OF PROMINENT GENERAL REGRET EXPRESSED D03TON, November 2. Prominent educators throughout the east, while In terms of deepest regret of. the unfortunate tragedy of Saturday by which cadet Edward Byrne lost his life, do not as a majority believe that the regrettable accident will materially affect the future of football. Professor Kred W. supervisor of athletics at Brown university, said In connection with cadet Byrne's death at West Point: "Such an unfortunate accident Is likely to occur In any srwirt.

Thousands of men are playing football, and considering the number of men in sport cases of death ere extremely few." president Kaunc said: "The deplorable accident. will Inevitably raise the question whether or not we have yet succeedel In modifying this form of port so as to make It reasonably safe. Some people again demand the abolition of football. 1-uit on the same day Harvard and West Point met a well-known financier was rendered unconcious by being thrown from bis horse. Yet we do not demand the abolition of riding horeback." William J.

Tucker, former president of Dartmouth college, said of the accident: "The effect of such a mlsnap all depends on whether or not It was purely an accident or whether caured bv the ray the game was played. If the former, it must be regarded as such; If the latter, me game must be so reculatel that accident like that may not occur. Its should lead to a careful study cf the game to eliminate such danirer. As It happened In mass play. It must serve as a striking argument for further opening up of the game." Proportion of -Accidents Small.

John W. Bonier, physical trainer, said: "The accident was unavoidable and liable to happen any time. Considering the large number of men who pmy football, I think the proportion of serious Injuries Is small." President George Harris, of Amherst college, refused to comment upon the death of cadet Byrne, not knowing me particulars. Dr. Kdwsrd Hl'cneock.
