At the pavnion every thing wili be in readiness for the event by noon today. It is asserted that Jeffries now tips the scales at 208}^ pounds. He believes he can fight best at about 207 pounds. His trainer, Billy Delaney, is of a differ ent opinion. He would rather have his protege enter the ring weighing about 215 or 217 pounds, as he knows that in the course oi a heated battle that weight counts. With a blow of his fist, while train ing, Jeffries burst a punching bag. It was done with one • of the left swings, which won for the boilermaker the glory of the world’s championship. Gus Ruhlin’s weight is 201 pounds. He weighed 211 pounds when he began training. Biilv Madden is not satisfied with the truth of the report that Jeffries only weighs 210 pounds. He says he is willing to wager chat the champion will tip the beam close to 225 pounds. Ruhiin is said to have a new and effec tive blow which he will attempt to use during the contest. The Clergymen’s association has adopted resolutions against the fight, Some of its members have asked the city officials to stop it and have been politely informed that the police will doubtless interfere if the sparring match should develop into a brutal prizefight. The mayor has given notice that he will sign the bill today, after which de velopments will be awaited. SUGAR REFINERY IN FLORIDA. Florida East Coast Commercial Com pany Capitalized.
