HAVANA, April l.-Tlio above expres
sions given todny by both lighters show
tho confidence that exists In ench camp.
Johnson lh sure ho will retain the cham
pionship; W'lllnrd Is ronllilcnt he will
brhiR bark the title to the white race.
Jack Johnson Is secretly devlsliiB new
tricks and punches and perfecting new
defensive tactics which ho will use In
the fight with Wlllard next Monday.
With the doors of his training camp
locked, the Bis Smoka has been working
under cover every inornliic for the InBt
,10 days. His partners In these workouts
aro Colin Hell and Sam MaVey.
The reason for this secrecy on Johnson's
part Is that he doesn't wnnt Wlllard lo dis
cover his new modo of fighting and take
means to circumvent tho champion's stle. In
tr-ese secret workout" Johnson has teen boxing
10 and 12 rounds. This makes a total of over
if) rounds of boxing the champion Is going
' through dally. But the public la not nwaro of
this suret training by tho champion.
Before- tho public Johnson Is boxing about 12
rounds every afternoon, following his mid
work, fllnco ho began training hero thn cham
pion has reduced from 233 pounds to 223.
Should Wlllard vvln tho clmmplonshlp he Is
planning a triumphant lourney back to the
United States. He will hire a special tmln ut
Key West, leaving Wednesday night, and pro
ceed by easy tuages to Now orU. On the trip
Wlllard will appear on tho back platform nml
make speeches at all towns through which tho
train wilt pass.
Wlllird Is drawing the most fnhlonable
crowd at his training quarters, while tho
crowd vvstchlng the champion gn through his
dally "workouts Is composed mainly of Negroes.
About Jot) persons vlst ench training quarter
daily. The fighters arc charging 20 cents
apiece to watch their training, and the sum
thus realized almost pns their training ex
penses. Six hundred American fight funscaro already
on tho ground, and tho Key West bouts are
bringing more in dally. A special boat Is duo
to arrive here from New Orleans rridny.
Tho betting Is Mill at 2J4 to 1. hut only small
Mtgers have been made, tho Wlllard crowu
holding out for better odds.
