on ills Way to Score of Action
NEW YORK, March
Jiltchie says that Freddie Welsh’s
bluff has been called. The former
lightweight champion exhibited a let-
tcr from E. (i. Bonfils, of the Denver
Post, in which Bonfils agrees to give
M'elsh 815.000 for his end ill a twenty
round fight to a decision on .Iuly a
due letter reads:
Denver, Col.. Feb. 15, 1915.
dill-I E. El. Cone. care of Con. Lorenzen
& Woodman. ‘Brunswick Building.
New York city, N. l'.:
My Dear Eddie: This letter will in-
tloduoe to you Mr. Willie Ritchie.
lightweight champion of America. We
have a plan of holding in Denver. Col.,
July 4, a world's championship contest
between him and Freddie Welsh. He
goes to New York to meet Mr. Welsh
and discuss this matter with him.
He will makela certain proposition
to Mr. Welsh. which would have the
sanction and backing of the lienver
"Post" and the Kansas City “Post."
and i want you to represent the inter-
ests of these papers there in these ne-
gotiations. As to details, &c.. be will
explain them to you,
fi‘ho miltch can be held in Denver.
and it is the only place. outside of New
‘Urlean‘s, ill the United Statq where
twenty‘iound contests can be held.
The date of the 4th of July.i.s the
correct dale and the correct ‘ e.
Ngw. give lilflWl‘lhe assistance anti
advice and help‘you'possibly can. You
are authorized to. put “p.43 thensme
of these papers. any forfeit money or;
gualnntoei tiltsl‘ may be required in the
matter to the limit of 35.000 to be held‘
in escrow by the Denver “Post." to'
he paid to Welsh upon the fulfilment
of his‘part of, the contract on July 4.
it is agreed that Welsh shall receive
$15,000 and round trip transportation
for three from New York to Denver.
fi’cry truly yours.
. F. G. BONFII.S.
P: ASL-Further. should there be a
decisive ‘winner in the coming battle
between these two in. New York the
“Post" will be released from all agree
merits.
‘Now. I didn't spring this offer on
Welsh until after our fight at the
Garden," said. Ritchie. “l hoped to
knock him out then but there was
too much deer in him. i saw him sev-
eral days after the tight and put the.
proposition up to him. He and Poilok
wouldn't listen toa fight with me un-
less he got 825.000, the amount that
was guaranteed me in London when
I met. hlmi‘ it looked like the end of
the matter.
{if was a» little surprised when I read
that Nate Lewis was out for the Den-
ver light in the interests of Charley
White. Mine is a prior claim and Mr.
Bonflls and Mr. Tammen. his partner,
will stick to their agreement.
“Now. here’s how 1 intend, to call
YWeish's bluff. Mr. Bonflls guarantees
him $15,000. 1 will add to that by bet-' Welsh for his title . Considerable am~A t
ting him $10,000 on the side. ‘He says
he's the champion,so he ought to jump
at this chance to gather in $25,000. I’m
willing to gamble $10,000 on my
chances though. i don’t need the
money—I've got plenty—but I want to
whip this fellow to the satisfaction of
every American in the land. I’ll re-
tire wbsn I do. I've satisfied my one
ambition—that is, to have money
enough to help any of my brothers and
sisters. There are ten of us and now
l know they'll never have to worry.

Billy Roche came in for a lot at
