SUNDAY. JUNt 2t. Mr. Reynolds Said He Never Went to “Hickory Hill " to Get the Support of Mr. Watson Candidate For Congress Replies to Mr. Watson’s Remarks Concerning Him in the Last Issue of the Jeffersonian. Hon. Jos. S. Reynolds, candidate for congress to succeed the incumbent, Hon. Thos. W. Hardwick, who is mak ing the race for the senate, on yes terday replied to Mr. Thos. E. Wat son, who said in his last Weekly Jef fersonian that Mr. Reynolds himself had gone to Mr. Watsons home. "Hickory Hill,” on several occasions and that Mr. Vinson had not gone there, leaving the inference that Mr. •Reynolds sought Mr. Watson’s sup port. "I have been gum-shoeing the dis trict so hard that I have seen but few newspapers during the week,” laid Mr. Reynolds. "Yes, I have read The Jeffersonian of the 18th.

The letter also spe cially invites the governors and their staffs to visit Augusta while their own troops are here. The most recent reply to this invita tion came Thursday from Governor Slaton, of Georgia, saying that while it may be impossible for him to come down during July and a part of Au gust, as the Legislature will be in ses sion then, he will probably come as soon as this body adjourns. It is hoped that the governors of ail four states will be here while their troops are encamped here, which will be at separate times, and it is very likely that they will, unless unavoid able circumstances prevent.

Are the Moving Picture People to Decide Just How Long the Moran-Johnson Fight's To Go ? New York—Here are a few views that have trickled in from Europe concern ing: the Jack Johnson-Frank Moran “championship fight” that is scheduled to he staged in Paris on June 27th. They are printed for the guidance of those who have been thinking of wager ing a little lucre on the outcome of the "battle.” The fight will he a fake. The fight will he on the level and promises to be the greatest heavyweight tight in history. 'Pile tight is a tYameup. It inis been framed so that Johnson will win. It Jins been framed so that Moran will win. Johnson is in file condition, has train ed faithfully, and is now down to weight, and a’ le to put up tin* greatest battle of his life. Johnson hasn’t trained more, than three or four hours a week in the last six weeks, and before then la* didn’t do any training at all. lie is 50 pounds over weight. ids wind Is bad, and lie is so flabby and out of rendition that he will collapse after six rounds. Moran lias not been training hut has been spending most of his time. da\ and night, in t.v around the gilded Paris cases. In the last few weeks he has become a familiar figure in the Paris night life. Moran has trained earnestly at his quarters in the little village just out side of Paris sind is in wonderful condi tion. Seemingly without effort, he inis been giving some terrible beatings to ids sparring partners, and they are pre dicting a speedy knockout victory for him. The moving picture people are tho ones who are to decide jUHt how long Hie fight is to last. It Is reported that they have cautioned Johnson that lie must not knock out the white man be fore the 10th round, at least, as a film showing a shorter fight, would not make money. Johnson feels very bitter toward Mo ran because of his slightning remarks, while in New York about six weeks ago, relative to Johnson's condition, and threatens to smash him to a pulp the very first time they meet. They're Talking of the Frame Up in the “Fight" Between Johnson and Moran in Paris on the 21th New York.—This is to remind those who care to be reminded Unit .1. Johnson, an ebony hued punching pu'sson, formerly of tihe U. S. A., and Francis Moran, who comes from Pittsburg, and who 13 as nearly white as any oe can be who comes from there, are scheduled to stage a fight on June 27tli in that gay and giddy Paree. it will be noted that we sai l sched uled to stage a fight. That let’s us out. Some souls are brave enough to come right out and say that the two persons above mentioned will light. But such a statement in our opinion, exceeds the extreme limit of poetic license, or whatever license it is that one exceeds when one makes a positive statement with nothing positive to back it up. Many things may happen during the next eleven dayß to bring about a cancellation of this much talked of bout. Who can say that Johnson, during that period, will not be pinch ed for auto speeding, smoking in the subway, treason, arson, piracy, or sneezing into the face oT a Paris po liceman? And if one or several of these little thing should lttppen to him “i’ll Ahthuh” probably won't get out in time to be among those pres ent on the night of the fight. And Francis, too, must lie consid ered as a |K)ssible even probable cause —of calling off the match at the eleventh hour. The Pittsburg gladiator may experience a sudden# Change of heart and also of foot, ten* perature before tlie p. in. of June 27. Wouldn’t lie surprising. Francis may be a brave soul and all that, but brave as he is, he must feel some qualm as the hour approaches when he must dure what so few have dare! -—get himself shoved into a ring with this fighting black man. If Francis’ pedals become icy and his courage oozes forth, and the match is called off .on that account the real facts will not be given out. We will be told that Francis, during training, busted his left band, his right, elbow, nine ribs and Ills wish bone, and that he suddenly bail be come possessed of appendicitis, bar ber’s itch and suspended animation. But even if Francis doesn’t get cold feet and Ahthuh doesn’t get him self pinched and thpy meet in the -ring, it doesn't necessarily follow that a fight will take place. Of course, there may be a real fight, hut. only about twe per cent of the general pub lic seems to feel that wuy. Forty nine per cent of the remaining ninety eight think the bout will he a frame up, while the other forty-nine think Elaborate Preparations Being Made Since Completion of the Davis Cup Inter national Tennis Schedule New York. With the Davis flup Inter national tennis schedule completed both tin* National Association and the clubs allotted preliminary and challenge rounds are making elaborate preparations for handling the matches and the thousands of spectators expected to witness Iho play. If the English and Australasian teams reach the final round, as Is gen erally predicted, there will he almost a* much Interest In the match between these two nations, to he played at the l„o hr wood Club cm August ♦». 7 and H, sis In the challenger round at Forest Hills, Long Island, the following week. With this In view the- Boston Club Is prepar ing to seat close to six thousand specta tor* and the West Hide Club will almost double these figures for the series be tween the I 'fitted Ht ites team ami the challengers which will decide the 1914 winners of the trophy emblematic: of the world s teams tennis championship. Interest In the International play will not cease with the Davis Cup matches, however, for the* members of the Lng- Ush, Australasian and Orman teams. If the latter come to America at all, will all play In the national championship tournament at Newport fluring the week of August 24*29.

Clothier. Dell and other leading American players who will en ter at Newport, ’he national champion ship tournament Is certain to attract a record assomblv to the Casino coufta. Reservation*. That this will he the case Is clesrly In dicated by the demand for reservations even at this surly date. Despite too Johnson and Moran often meet in the office that serves aw the headquarters for the managers of both fighters, and are on the ve.Vy best of terms. A check for SIIO,OOO as Johnson's share of the fight lias been placed in a safety deposit vault. The check for SIIO,OOO that has been placed in the bank to Johnson’s credit Isn't worth tin* paper it. is written on. Johnson is willing to bet SIO,OOO, at big odds, that he will defeat Moran in 10 rounds or less. Moran is willing to wager a huge amount that he will kuock out the ne gro in 12 rounds. Those who are in on the alleged frame up. It is said, have pooled a big hunch of money and are Just waiting foV ‘‘suck ers’’ so that the\ can Viet It. at big odds, and make a “killing.” Outside of these few conflicting de tails we have, up to the present writing, heard nothing that would cast e'en the shade of suspicion on this scheduled fight. Willie Ritchie, light weight champion, has been libeled by all persona who claim that he has mixed up in only about six fights since lie became champion. Wil lie has mingled in at least 20 bouts— six of them staged in a ring and tho other 14 staged in different places where persons meet to sign up articles for fights. Taking It from Willie who expressed himself before his departure for dear, old lam non, those fights over terms and conditions are harder than a real scrap. In a scrap, Willie points out, one has but one opponent and when one gets soak ed one usually gets soaked from only one direction, but in battling over terms willle lias found that lie’s had to fight nearly an army of managers, assistant managers, stake holders, lawyers, and promoters, who can soak from any angle. "And you have to be mighty darned careful” remarks Willie "because if you ain’t those fellows arc going to hand you a knock out punch when you aren’t look ing. When I sign up for a fight I’m mighty particular about each condition and term of the fight. I’m out to pro tect my own interests—and you can bet that l do.” it will be a slaughter with Johnson doing the butchering. This proposed Johnson Moran af fair lias caused about as much discus sion as any fight since the big black man gntibbed the crown from Jef feries. So many things are to be considered in an attempt to “dope” out the result that the belting fra ternity is baffled and up to tuo pres ent moment we have not heard of any real lief being placed on the outcome of the fight. Some of tlie best little ring experls in the country seem to feel flint John son ought to be at 5 to 1 to 10 to 1 favorite In the belting. Some of Mo ran’s supporters are so confident that ho will beat "Smoke” that it Is said they will he willing to lake all the 3 to 1 and evn 2 to 1 money that will be offerd at the last minute. Tha general public, howovr, iH keeping Us money in Its jeans and no doubt will keep It there. The possibility of the fight being a frame-up is one that is to be consid ered. And then the question arises, How far has tlie negro gone back? Is he out. of condition and totally un fit to put up a championship fight, as lias been reported a half dozen times? Has there been any real Improvement in the Inst year in the ability of Mo ran, w'tio only a year ago was a sec ond rale “white hope’’? Certain It Is that if Moran hasn't Improved much over what he was a year ago he will have a mighty slim chance against Johnson, even if Johnson has reced ed a considerable distance from where he was when lie fought Jef feries. Considerable stress Is heing laid on the fact that Johnson has led a fast and giddy life since he became a champion Yet be was quite ns ghl dy a young blade before he won the championship as he has been since. The fact that It is not generally known Is simply because in the days before he became a champion he was given scarce notice in the newspa pers and his personal doings weren't chronicled as far and as wide as they have been since. Of course, Johnson Is a hit older than he was In 1910. And age hasn’t helped him, nor has ills dV.sipfttlon helped him. Hut the main question is: Has Johnson gone so far back in four years and Moran come so far forward in one year that the on time second rate white fighter has a chance against tlie black man who, less than four years ago, was called the greatest human fighting machine of the age? fact that the seating capacity at the Newport courts will he greatly Increased It is apparent that the demand for tick ets will exceed the supply. The boxes surrounding the grandstand court completely sold out a mouth ugo and additional stands are being built to pro vide for the thousands who are expected to witness the all-star mutches to he played cm this court. Additional rows of temporary s**ats will be placed In front of the grandstand and two new stands will he erected, one:] at each end of the- championship play ing turf. The east stand will also be widened by the addition of rows of seats at top and bottom and when the: altera tions are completed It Is expected that ignore than H.OOO spectators can be ac- ] commodated around the star court of the Casino grounds. During th<J e airly rounds many of the other courts will be occupied by prominent American and foreign players and it Is not unlikely that should the draw dlftrlbuts th* leading players evenly, an attendance fully equal to that at the Davis Cup challenge round will be present on cer tain days. Rapid Progress. While rapid progress Is being made In the matter of accommodating spectators lit these matches the same fanned he said of the assembling of the players who will form the teams of the leading entrants, considered as nations. Aus* tralasia Is to date the only competitor with Its team formed ami practicing n* a whole. In view of the formidable hSegregation of players that the Anti podes possess in Brooks. Wilding, Doust and Dunlop, this advantage is not one to ho dlsi cgurdod. iisfors tbs Auslra- lasians sail for America early in July both the United States and English ten uis’ authorities will have begun the as sembling of their teams, hut at the present time there is little definite idea of the strength or arrangement of these teams. The American cup defenders will be called upon to face a heavier attack this summer than in any Davis Cup match in years and the expert tennis authori ties are emphatic In their declarations that at best the -United States team will not have better than an even chance of retaining the trophy regained at Wim bledon last summer. It is certain that Champion Maurice MoT.oughlin will form the foundation of the team, but beyona that all is speculation. The California delegation, including McLoughlln. Wi liam Johnston, t lurence (Jriffin, Thomas Bundy, and possibly Elia Fottrell and Roland Roberts, has been requested to come east early in July. Here they will he joined by Lind ley Murray, and H. L. Hahn who have been playing brilliant y in the east for some weeks. The east ern contingent including Williams. Wal lace Johnson, Touchard, Bell Dabney. Niles, Alexander, Leroy, Church, Hackett and others have been playing for some weeks and when the two squads Join forces the U. S. L T. A. officials will immediately begin the work of trying out the players- in various tournaments in order to gftuge their present ability for the cup defense purposes. Similar Condition. Somewhat similar conditions prevail in England with the first rounds but a few weeks away. According to the draw tlie English team must meet Bel gium at Folkstone July 7-8-9 and win ning ploy l-Yance at Wimbledon July 10-13-14. 13-14. England should survive these rounds even though the team selected for the matches did not represent Elritisii topnotch tennis strength. For the play in this country, however. England must have the best combination possible in order to have n fair chance against the Australasians and toward this end lit tle has been done. Beyond appointing a sub-coimnittee of three to organise * series of doubles trials at Wimbledon, the International committee has taken no definite action in regard to the in international team. One or two players have been unofficially advised that they maj be selected, but that is as far ns the comndttee has gone. What is need ed, according to English writers, is that the committee should concentrate a team which Is physically sound; a team which is young enough to stand the searching strain of five sets in the hottest weath er, and yet old enough to have had ade quate match play experience; above all, a team which is versed in modern meth ods of attack and lias some of tho strokes necessary to combat them. J. C. Parks on his form of last year merits instant selection; F. Q. I/Owe on his form of this year deserves the same tribute, and A. KJngseete should he Included.
