Just why sonit of the put-ups: should howl at the show Riven lant nixht. is be- ond Ruossins;. for the battle In'tween I'etinis. of the Olympic Club of an Kranciseo. and Vuture, of the Reliance i tub of Oakland, was fully worth the price of admission. The lads fought four iHttllUK rounds, four rounds in which there wasn't a second let up in the mill in tr. i'Venuis turned up the winner. He was on top of his man all the time and lull ho wasn't using a straight left poke he made tL-e of a swinging right that was h dais. It was only t'outure's sameness that mado the judges call for a fourth round, for at the end of the third round lie wmt to hts corner wob bling like a drunken sailor. H was an extremely clever match for amateurs, for both, boys showed up well, both in foot work and In ring generalship. iKmnis is a scientific youngster and while he was jarred several tinns by Couture, he never hackl tip. Seattle PieLrd as Winner. The card tonight will o the best of the tournament. In spite of the disap pointments. v In seven of th ten events carded, Seattle boys will be under the arc light and it looks as if the athletes from the Sound City would curry ofr the great est number of honors. Seattle has al ready carried off one of the champion ships and it went to J. Johnson In the middleweight wrestling bout. Harvey lvmtildson. of the Seattle T. M. . A., beat Kred li. Hussey. of the Seattle Athhtic t'lub. in a lively wrest ling bout. This was the opening event on the card ami one of the bst matches of the tournament up to the prrsmt time. The boys never itclsyrd a second after they were sent tgether. Iuring the first half of the bout Mussey did most of th work. Then J Hnaldson got busy and at the end of the six minutes it was an even break. After the rest there was i y 1 - - j J hrter Rniun, of ettle Athlette 4 luh. X-bo MrC.

Vena Men. the Seattle VX-potind wrestler, defeated J. T. Finnegan, of the Multnomah Club. in 4 minutes and 49 seconds of rs hard wrestling as has yet been witnessed in the tournament. Fin negan. w ho in a pupil of Joe Acton, is a new- man at the game, hut made a splendid showing. He succteded In getting the upper hold on Vennbles. but the latter managed to break the hold and later secured a fall by means of the half Nelson. The- match was heartily ap plauded by the crowd, which was evi dently well pleased with the work of the two contestants. This is the second victory scored by Vennbles, who defeated Otto Ott on ,the opening night. Dyrrhora; lx.es to rlinm. A roiling fall decided the heavyweight wrestling match between H. Grimm, of Seattle, and Walter Dyerborg, of the Y. M. A. The bout was a whirlwind affair from the Mart and after two min utes and four seconds of grappling, .Grimm won the bout with a rolling fall. Just on the edg of the mat- Kd. C. Johnson, the heavyweight wrest ler of the Multnomah Club, defeated "Jeff" Anloff, of the Reliance Club of Oakland, in a six-minute bout.

Hrownell flew at the local lad, took a crotch hold and. lifting Finne gan clesr of the mat. dropped on htm. The fall Jarred the building, and In 1 seconds the referee slapped Brownell on the back, declaring him the winner. Best fight of Xlght. Couture, of the Reliance Club, and TCddie Dennis, of the Olympic Club, fought a battle that will be long remem bered. Dennis was all over his man and by using straight leftj he had Cou ture going. Dennis was awarded the championship .after four rounds of fierce battling. The boys fought like a pair of game cocks, yhe featherweights were both game, but the Olympic Club boxer not only had the better punch, but he made use of both hands. Couture , was wild and his judgment of distance was bad. At ' the end of the third round Couture was very groggy, but the minute rest sent him back into the fight with lota of steam. He had an even break in the two-minute affairs, but Dennis work in the other three rounds gave him a decided lead. Madden, the M. A. A. C. heavyweight, was duck soup for Henry Croft, of the Seattle Club. The bout should not have been carded. Croft did not . have a chance to extend himself.

At 9 o'clock the foreman asked for a repeti tion of the judge's definitions of the dif ferent degrees of murder- and at 11 o'clock a request was made for some of the evidence presented by the prosecu tion. 0 The closing argument this afternoon was made by Attorney Dan J. Malarkey. of Portland, special prosecutor for the state, and in his address to the jury he made a severe arraignment of the de fendants. J. M. Dickenson. John Dicken son. Karl Tlansier, William Dickenson and John Riley, who on the night of October 30 last went to Sundy, where they proceeded to imbibe freely of in toxicants and then went to Jarl & Pagh Bros. lumber camp, near Boring, and fired scores of shots Into the cabin of two defenseless Hindus. Miifrh Receives Fatal Wound. One of them. Harnan Singh, was struck by a bullet from a rifle in the hands of William Dickenson, and re ceived a wound from the effects of which he died in a Portland hospital two days later. The other members of the party, which included Walter Sinclair and Vernon Hawes. had shotguns and revolvers, and although J. M. Dicken son, a farmer, of Boring and the father of William and John Dickenson, did not tiro into the cabin, evidence showed he aided and encouraged the young men on their night of crime, and did nothing to prevent them from firing shot after shot into the cabin. Singh and his companion had been at the sawmill only two days when some of the white laborers. Incensed over the fact that the !0a st Indians had been en gaged to work, decided to frighten the twain, in the hop that they would leave the camp. Alarmed at the patter of rifle balls against the cabin, the Hindus crouched behind the scanty furniture In the one-room shack, until Singh was struck and cried out, and the firing ceased. Admit Taking Part in 1'ray. The seven men were arrested and made a signed statement to Deputy District Attorney Kby admitting their participa tion in the night of evil work. Hawes was used by the prosecution on the stand and it is understood that he will never be brongKt to trial. Sinclair was jailed, along with the other men. but several weeks ago he made an unprovoked as sault upon Jailer Peter Xehren. and Dickenson, his two sons and Riley and Ransier objected to being tried along with Sinclair, who is reputed to be a man of hard character.
