OPINIONS OF THE
TWO CONTESTANTS
By Battling Nelson.
Goldfleld, Sept. 3.—Now that I

can assure my friends that I am
at my best. I leave it-for them
to judge what that means. Per-
sonally I think it insures me an
easy victory Inside twenty roftnds.
I hav<3 'everything to gain by win-
ning this fight, and I will certain-
ly do better than ever before in
my life. I have yet to find the
fifehter who can hurt me—and I
am sur^ Gans can't. That spells
the championship for me, doesn't
it?
By Chlmpion Joe Gans.

patedly paid the making of\ the

think it is necessary to say that
the fight will be\ straight. I have
sacrificed everything for a chance
like this, knowing that - victory
opens, the doorB of the pugilistic
world again to me—doors that I
have, to tell the truth, closed
against myself. I repeat, I am
confident of winning.
particularly that ho does not want the
referee to lay bis hands on the fight-
ers during the contest, and that the
breaks shall be made only at Siler's
command. Siler has argued that there
may be situations in the fight where
the men would not heed the com-
mand, and that one or the other would
clinch and hold till the sound of the
gpng for the purpose of saving him-
self from punishment or a knockout.
Siler says if the men clinch or hold
on this way he will separate them.
Naturally the chief point of Interest
In regard to the fighters Is the condi-
tion of Gans. Men who have seen
him at different times during his
training say his work Saturday was
the best he has done whilo here. Al-
though ho is practlc/illy at the weight,
he perspired freely soon after starting
work. He wears a full length gymna-
sium Knit, which helps start perspira-
tion. When Gans stripped he was
the picture of muscular development.
There is not a rib to be seen, so that
it is evident he will be fighting at
natural weight when he enters tho
ring today, and at that "he will have
his strength. Every movement, indi-
cates his lithe strength and' grace.
The .colored man devoted j forty-five
minutes to bag punching, With both
the light and heavy bags. In wind-
ing up his work he donned a bath
robe and skipped the rope 500 times.
This induced a profuse perspiration.
Then he submitted to a massage at
the hands of his trainer, Frank Mc-
Donald. All attention of his handlers
is being devoted to keeping him at top
of condition and to prevent overtrain-
ing.
Gans said yesterday, In response to
a suggestion that he-weigh In advance
of the official time: "
"Manager Nolan and Battling Nel-
son must bo worried some when No-
lan Is so anxious to see me on the
scales. Just tell Mr. Nolrin for mo
that I will weigh in at 12 o'clock
Monday and not before, and tell him
not to ioso any more sleep, I'll be at
weight." . " ,,-i:
Thus it was Nolan was openly ac-
cused along the line of another at-
tempt to Jearn the actual condition of
the Dane's opponent.
Nelson is in the pink of condition,
stronger and better than ever. If ho
loses it will not be because he is not
in shape to put up the fight of his
life. He has trained faithfully. The
climate has helped him reach perfect
form, anq he goes into the battle full
of confidence. His work with Lundln
shows that ho has greatly Improved
as a boxer since he beat Brltt at
CBlftriu " ■ ,? '• ' *'
Nelson Is. steadily gaining favor
since the advent of the California con-
tingent. The town is thronged with
visitors and tho chances are that not
a seat will be vacant this afternoon.

KINGSTON
Goldfleld, Nev., Sept. 3.—This after-
noon between tho hours of 3 and 5
O'clock, Battling Nelson, the premier
of the white lightweights, and Joe
Gans, the greatest colored fighter tlx t
ever donned a mlt, will struggle In
the squared circle for the lightweight
championship of tho world and, a
purse of $30,000, of which $20,000 goes
to Nelson, win or lose,Jnnd $10,000 to
Gans.
Yesterday both fighters rested from
their arduous training, as both were
as fit for the fray as human knowl-
edge and athletic training could make
them.
Owing to the hard weight condi-
tions imposed on Gans by Nelson's
manager, it Is holle'Ve'cl t.hls morning
that when the men,-#iler the ring the
betting will bo even fntjfney and take
your choice. Thajqons'ensus of opin-
ion among experts of the fistic game
Is that If Gans Is beaten It will be
caused by weakening himself to make
the weight impost Insisted upon by
Manager Nolan.
«Tex" Rickard served each fighter
with a notice yesterday morning
which defines, the position of the Gold-
field Club in regard Ur the time at
which the fight shall commence. It.
Insists that "each principal shall
weigh In ot the hours of 12 noon and
1:30 p. m. and at 3 o'clock they shall rounds.

He stated emphatically that there was,
no significance in his action, other
than the fact that having previously
protected Gans In every way. right to
the moment of fighting, he felt that,
he had done ex#rythlng possible to

that ho would never have championed

New Yor, Sept. 3—The mightiest
squadron of warships ever gathered
together in Western waters were of-
ficially reviewed by President Roose-
velt at Oyster Hay today. Forty-five.
\essels of the new navy, ranging in
size from the mighty battleship
I uisiana with a displacement of 17,-
666 tons to the tiny submarines Por-
poise and Shark, took purt in the
great naval spectacle. More than 500
shots were fired from tho huge uaval
guns, and It Is estimated that the eu-
tlre cost of the review will foot up
nearly $1,000,000. Eight hundred of-
ficers and 15,000 men comprised tho
crows aboard the ships.
The day opened stormy and at In-
tervals a hard rain was driven before
the. stiff wind. Tho weather condi-
tions will not be allowed to Interfere
with tho details of the program and
had no efect on the crowd that gath-
ered to witness the inspiring scone.
Long Island Sound, opposite Oyster \
Bay, presented a striking spectacle,
owing to tlie great gathering of war-
ships, dressed from stem to sterri and
with their yards manned and their
sides lined with their crows. The
town and harbor of Oyster Hay were
astir early. Immense crowds assem-
bled along the sea front and rounds dl
cheers mingled wjth tho national an-
them and salutes from tho excursion
boats as the yacht. Mayflower steam-
ed out of the harbor with President
Roosevelt aboard. With the president
were Secretary of the Navy Bone-
parte, Assistant Secretary Newberry
and a party of half a dozen Invited
guests. Tho Mayflower was'followed
by the Sylph with Mrs. Roosevelt and
her house party aboard.
The fleet of warships was drawn
up in three limig due north of Pine
nnd Center Islands, and about, 2,200
yards from On tor Island Point, the
fleet facing eastward at 450-yard in-
tervals. A pteket line of boats was*
established 700 yards outside the fleet
formation and beyond this picket line
yachts.and other craft* wer« obliged
to anchor. To4he spectator It appear-
ed that all tire availablo excuraion
crafts in tho vicinity of Greater New
York had been presse4Jnto-*orv|ee to
accommodate thrive desirous of seeing
the grand naval pageant
In the outer or northern lino of war-
ships, beginning at tho west end. there
were the Denver, Cleveland, Tacoma,
Minneapolis, Maryland, Colorado,
Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Iowa, In-
dlana, Illinois and Alabama, with tho
Dolphin In advance as the reviewing
stand of Secretary Boncparte.
The central line contained in tho
order named, the Arkansas, Florida,
Nevada, Puritan, Virginia, New Jersey,
Rhode Island, Louisiana, Kearearge,
Kentucky, Missouri anil Mattie.
The third or southern line was made
up of tho De Long, tho Blakeley, tho
Stockton. Rodgers, Tingey, Wilkes,
MacDonough, La-wrence, Hopkins,
Worden, Whipple and Des Moines.
The Porpoise, the Shark and the Nina
constituted a separate group to tho
south of the Whipple, while to tho
southwest of the fleet and outside the
picket line were the auxiliary ves-
sels Lebanon? Leonidas, Ahnrenda,
Arethusa, Celtic and Yankee.
Contrary to precedent, the ships re-
mained stationary while the presidrnt,
upon the Mayflower, passed along tho
three lines and also encircled the en-
tire fleet. As the president passed
each flag ship ho recejved a salute of
twenty-one guns. This continued un-
til about R00 shots had been fired, at
an average—when all the expenses
are ' taken Into consideration—of
about $1,800 a shot.
At the'conclusion of the Inspection
the Mayflower withdrew to the east-
ward of the fleet. The president
then entertained at luncheon Rear Ad-
mlral Robley D. Evans, commanding
the fleet, and the commanding officers
of the squadron flagships. These of-
ficers were Rear Admiral Charles fl.
Davis, Captain Charles W. Bartiett,
Captain Nathan E. Nile*, Rear Admi-
ral Willard H. Brownson, Commander
Bradley A. Flske, Commander Ed-
ward Anderson, Lieutenant Willis Mc-
Dowell, Lieutenant. Charles p. Nelson
and Commander H. O. Dunn.
An Idea of the strength of the groat
fleet which took part In tho review
may ho had when It la considered that
It was greater than tho combined
fleets of tho American and Spanish
navies during the late war, that It
was much stronger than the combined
fleets of Russia and Japan during the
