Despite the fact that a fight be-
tween chfrles and Johnson is improo
.bable‘ at this stage of the game. the
announcement made in yesterday’s
papers that such a return match was
being contemplated by at least the
Jeffrles end of the stall caused not a
little comment in The Norwalks.
There is no doubt but what the pro-
valllng opinion is that'Jeffries was
the victim of a deep plot and that his
utter defeat at the hands of the char-
coa’i fighter was but the result of a
previous arrangement. If such a fight
.werc ever pulled off there is little
doubt as to who would be the favorite.
