Harry Chapman will be back of the wood, and the manager said this morning that he fully expected Tommy Long to be in hla regular place in left field. Tommy was out In uniform yester day, but Manush was going so well that it was not considered necessary to try out the convalescent one. Prank had a great day with the stick yes terday and aided materially In the battering of the unfortunate Howell. Manager Molesworth was not posi tive of his choice In the matter of slabman.

He bet heav ily on Johnson and after the thing was over he never even went to Jef fries to speak to him, and to my knowledge has never seen Jim .since. "This fellow used to coax Jeffries away from the Monoa Springs train ing camp to go fishing. For hours he would keep Jim standing knee deep in the mountain streams and cause him to neglect his training. “I believe that Jeffries was the vic tim of a widespread plot. The man never had a chance. He was whipped before he could put up his hands. This was one of the worst blows ever dealt the boxing gam© and I would pay a good sum out of my own pock et to see the mystery cleared up.” • * * TOM JONES, manager for Ad Wol- * gast and Jess Willard, is an other who believes that Jeffries was “doped.” "Jeffries was drugged. There is no other way to account for his reeling about in the ring before the contest, says Jones. “Jeffries doesn’t care much about the matter now. but his friends would like to se© the thing explained.“ .

The attending physicians have little hope for his recovery. It was McNeil’s own carelessness that caused his fall. He reported at the track yesterday afternoon under the influence of liquor, and after much wrangling with the other riders he insisted on taking a whirl. He borrowed Morty Graves' stock machine and Immediately after start ing ascended to the white boards at the top of the track. The white boards are perpendicular and it takes a speed of at least 80 miles an hour to hold the machine. The first time around his motor broke through the boards In two places, but McNeil refused to come down. The next time around he rode right Into one of the holes that he had smashed on his firs* trip, and was thrown 50 feet in the air. He came down face first. An ambulance was called and he was rushed to Grady Hospital. The extent of his Injuries are: The skin was peeled from the right side of his face. A glaring hole In hla skull that may affect the brain. Right shoulder dislocated and badly torn. Deep gash in right thigh, just above the hip. Right leg broken Just above the knee. Internal injuries, the exact nature of which has not been fully deter mined.
