JACK JHISII AT HAVANA
Negro Pugilist Says He Will Charter
Vessel to Get to Juarez
On Time
Rtl Associated Press.
Havana, Feb. 22.—Jack Johnson,
the pugilist, accompanied by his wife,
secretary, sparring partner and a ser
vant, arrived here early this morning
from Cienfuego. He appeared in good
condition anil declared he never felt
better.
Johnson said his only anxiety now
was to reach Juarez, Mex., in time for
his match with Jees Willard on March
6. He was much annoyed at hearing of
the present chaotic conditions in Mexi
co, especially the difficulties which
probably would confront him in going
north from Tampico. Johnson declared,
however, that he was determined to
push ahead in spite of all obstacles and
if no regular steamer was available for
the trip he would charter a vessel to
| take him to Tampico.
-No plans had been made for his ap
pearance in Havana, Joht*on said, but
he would confer with George M. Bradt,
who holds the Cuban government con
cession for boxing matches in the Ha
vana stadium, and might give an ex
hibition bout with Sam McVey or Jim
Johnson.
The heavyweight champion reached
< aenfuegos on the four-masted schooner
Henry t. Krager, which he chartered
to ta.Ue him from Barbados. The pass
age, which was rough, took ten days.

BRAVES STOLE SIGN ALS
Maranville, Small Shortstop, Talks on
luside Baseball
Boston, Feb. 22.—The Boston Na
tionals, in their successful fight for tire!
leugue championship last season, were!
aided by their ability to solve the sig- j
nafa o< nearly every team in the league, j
according to Walter Maranville, the
Braves' shortstop. In a talk to stu
dents of Boston College Saturday night,
Maranville said:
"Signals had a lot to do with our
winning the championship. We had
signals of our own, of course, and s>
far as 1 lttiow, thiey never were solved
consistently. We were able to get the
meaning of the signals of the other
teams in nearly every city of tho
league. In St. Louis we knew almost
every move that the other fellow was
going to make and that helpcil a lot.
Their signals were very easy. Other
teams had harder signals, but we man
aged to get most of them, while the
other side was doing the guessing."
