There was much rejoicing in John' son's camp last night over the after noon's workout by the chRmplon.

Rickard placed a quietus upon talk of taking off the round limit, declaring that the idea of making it a light to the finish had never entered the minds of any of the men concerned In the contest. Fight Certain iu Take Place. Sweeping away tne :ast lingering fear of executive interference with the Johnson-Jeffries- fight battle on July 4, Governor Dlckerson of Nevada, ar rived yesterday and personally assur ed Promoter Tex ltlckard that there was no possibility of Intervention.
