(Etc. September 13, 9.35 p.m.)
' London, September 13. The kinematograph pictures of tho fight between J'ohnsou and Jeffries at Reno, Nevada, have been shown at the National Sporting Club. .
' "The Times" states that tho pictures represent a rather dull fight, which has little resemblance to the word -painting sent out .by the American newspaper correspondents at Reno.
The kinematograph omits all tho adjectives bo liberally interlarded by the Reno. pressmen, and the pictures . mako it evident i that there was much more wrestling than boxing.
Altogether the show is described as a very harmless affair, and "Tho Times" remarks that anybody who was demoralised by seeing it would lose all his morality if,he saw a cab accident.
