The point is not clear In the articles. Fltzslmmons comes out with the statement that he will not consent to U10 selection of a referee until the very day of the contest. "I want a ralr deal," he said, "as inn is a very Important matter to me." "The club desires you to submit early In October a list of names of men who would suit you," the New Zealander was informed. "That makes no differ ence to me," was the reply. "The day of the fight Is time enough, and I shall not mention a man until then. I wnnt a man who Is familiar with the rules, and who has had eperlence. I do not propose to get the worst of It." V. A. iBrady said that he did not ap prehend any difficulty In this direction. "Any fair man will suit us," he said. "We have named several capable men. Now let Fits put In a list. The whole thing can be settled In Ave minutes." - It Is generally understood that the ref eree of this engagement will get $1,000 and expenses.
