UNWIELDY BOER
Unholz Only Stays Eleven
Rounds With Negro
Champion.
FOURTH KNOCKDOWN FINAL
Cans EaMly Solves Boer's Clumsy
Defense, and Pugnacity Without
Skill Falls Betting Strongly
Favors Hie Negro.
SAN" FRANCISCO. May 14. Joe Gans,
the lightweight champion, udded an
other victory to his long string tonight
ty defeating Rudolph Unholz, the rug
ged Iloer from South Africa, in the
31th round.
The fight was Gans' all the way
through. He systematically beat down
Vnholz, and the referee Interfered In the
31th round, as Vnholz was practicaly
knocked out. Although Gans held the
tight at all stage?, he had no easy time
in solving the awkward defense of Un
holz and in overcoming his natural
ptamlna.
Knocked Down, but Full. of Fight.'
The first knockdown occurred In the
fourth round, Gans whipping in a terrific
left uppercut to the point of the chin.
Vnholz got up promptly and came back
full of fight, but although willing at all
times to mix it and never afraid of the
clever Clans, his wild efforts were most
ly unavailing.
In the seventh rund Gans knocked
I'nholz down with a rigtit uppercut to
the chin, and one of the letter's seconds,
losing his head, tossed a towel into the
ring and quickly crawled through the
ropes. Unholz got up promptly and
made a wicked attempt to strike his
second, who quickly crawled back out
eidn the ropes, nnd the fight went on.
From this time on it was only a ques
tion of how long I'nholz would be able
to stand the punishment that Gans was
ending In with both hands.
Gans' Knockout Punch.
In the tenth round he sent the Boer to
the floor again and he got up dazed and
unsteady.
The unequal combat was prolonged
into the 11th round, when, with a series
of short-arm jolts. Gans sent the willing
but awkward Boer down with a wicked
uppercut to the chin. Unholz got up
completely blinded and unable to see his
opponent. Gans. seeing the condition of
Vnholz. humanely stood aside, and Ref
rree Welch stepped in and gave the de
cision to the champion:
Both Men Vndcr Weight.
The fight was scheduled for 20 rounds,
u-aii was for the world's lightweight
championship and a guaranteed percent
age of the gate receipts. Owing to the
fact that Unholz has never appeared in
a local arena before tonight, interest, in
the outcome was at a low ebb. but' in
spite of this fact Coliseum Kink was
crowded when the signal was given for
the fighters to give battle. The men
weighed in stripped at the ringside short
ly before commencing hostilities'' the
scales being set at the 133-pound mark,
according to tlte articles of agreement.
As both have been under weight for sev
eral days, there was no stir when they
jumped on the scales, which were set in
midring and failed to move the beams.
Big Odds on Guns.
netting on the general result was light,
with the odds favoring Gans at 10 to 3'j.
There was much speculation on the
length of the contest, however, even
money being wagered that I'nholz would
not stay 1'u rounds. The splendid show
ing made by the latter in ills recent
fights with Battling Nelson and George
Jlemslc at los Angeles, in which he is
credited with having had much the bet
ter of his opponents, was the means of
bringing the Boer ninth support that he
would stay the limit, and many heavy
wagers were risked in this way.
The main event was preceded by two
plx-round bouts, the first between Tom
my Herman and W. O. Smith, and the
second between Charlie Lucca, of Chi
cago, and Billy Purtell, of this city.
CONFIDENT OF WINNING TEAM
Sullivan Discusses American Pros
pects lit Olympic Games.
NF.W YORK, May 14. Following the
Pacific Coast tryouts which were held
at Stanford University, in California,
members of the Olympic committee
are jubilant over the fact that every
thing now points to a winning team
to represent the United States In Lon
don in July.
"The only thing that is worrying us
now," said James K. Sullivan, secre
tary of the committee, "is the picking
of the team. That is a hard problem.
- "Within the last month reports have
been received from all over the coun
try, stating that some athlete has been
breaking world's records In practice.
If these reports are true, there will be
many upsets when all the tryouts are
held, and perhaps some of those who
were looked on as sure -winners will
of necessity be left at home.
"Of course this will- not happen if
we receive enough money. At pres
ent we have sufficient to send a win
ning team, but I am in hopes that be
fore the ,boys sail on June 21 there
will be enough to send every athlete
.who has a chance of gaining a point."
Experts say they cannot see how such
men as Shaw of Dartmouth and For-
'rest Smlthson of Multnomah Club are
going to loso In the high hurdles. Mar
. tin W. Sheridan with the discus; Mel-
. vin Sheppard, in the middle distance;
McGrath and Flanagan in the weight
events; Glarner in the quarter mile;
Dray or Yale in the polevault; Porter
in tho high jump; Ray Kinery in the
standing. Jump; Bellars and Bonhag in
the distance runs; Dan Kelly lu the
broad jump: James Sullivan In the mile
run; Coe and Rose in the shotput, and
Garrels in any of the specialties he
-trains for and competes In.
Mr. Sullivan expects to have at least
J1S.0O0 by June 13.. This amount will en
able the committee to pick from. 40 to 50
men. With this number, every member
of the committee is sanguine of success.
GANS KNOCKS OU
. KOSS-COVNTBV BIN PLANS
'V. M. C. A. Hare and Hounds Con
test Scheduled for Tomorrow.
The cross-country running committee
of the Y. M. C. A. will hold the first
run of the season tomorrow under the
title of a "hare and hound" contest. Un
der the chairmanship of Victor Wetter
borg. this committee shows signs of
revolutionizing running conditions at the
association and is meeting with support
in Its endeavor to keep the men in
training.
Wetterborg and Cartozian will be the
hares and. starting from the association
building at 6:15 A. M.. they will lay a
heavy paper "scent' 'or trail for some
five or six miles, hitting the brush in
the shortest possible time after leaving
the building. The hounds will allow tho
hares five minutes' law and they must
follow the vagaries of the trail. Con
trary to the practice usually adopted in
contests of . this nature, on seeing the
hares, the hounds may disregard the
trail, but without a "view-halloa" the
trail must be adhered to.
On finishing up their supply of "scent"
or on reaching siimo mutually agreed
upon point, the hares will drop their
satchels and then come by the shortest
possible route back to Fourth and Yam
hill. It will be the duty of the hounds
to pick up the bags, and. having done
so, they may return to the starting point.
Himes will have charge of the hounds.

By falling on Boyle's delivery for a total
of ten safe swats, and through Boyle's
wildpess in tho second, the Beavers this
afternoon won from Abefdeen, 5 to 4, in
a game that wound up with plenty of
excitement. Boyle's trouble camo in the
second, when with two on he walked
two men and hit another, and allowed
Mundorff a single over second base, the
combination netting Vancouver four runs.
In the seventh the Canucks scored an
other on Donovan's single and Mundorff s
two-base hit.
Aberdeen annexed two runs in the sec

Galaski held the Seattle sluggers in the

was all that was gathered off the visit
ing twirler's delivery. One man was on
base when he made it and the chances
looked good for Seattle for a minute. A
lightning double play, however, killed
off all hope. The one run made by Spo
kane in the first inning was enough to
win, but the visitors added another in
the eighth. The first one came on two
singles and an out and the second on
Galaski's plow hit, a sacrifice and a sin

Thomas and Young Carson figured in a

man won out. Carson had excellent con
trol while Thomas got himself into
several bad holes by his wildness. Butte's
lone run came in the sixth when the
Bandits found ttarson for three dinky
hits in a row. Franklin fielded the last
hit poorly and the run was chased over
the plate.
Umpire Black cameiearer being mobbed
than any official who has been in Tacoma
for several years. With the bases filed in
the seventh inning, Carson dumped a
little one In the tntield and seemed safe
at first. Black called him out and
cushions and lemons were thrown at the
umpire. In the ninth Adams of Butte
was clearly out at first base and Black
called him safe. This evoked another
outburst of feeling. Black had a bad day
and was oft on balls and strikes to the
great disadvantage of the pitchers.

THAW
Court Holds That Relatives
Must Prove His Sanity.
OPEN FIGHT FOR LIBERTY
Constitutional Question Is -Taken
Under Advisement and Examina
tion of Medical Witnesses Is
Begun at Poughkeepsie.
POUGHKEEPSIE. N. Y.. May 14. The
opening of the Thaw habeas corpus hear
ing today, after many delays, found
Thaw and his representatives and District
Attorney Jerome's forces equally ready to
hasten the issue to a conclusion. Thaw's
stay in the quarters of the Sheriff in the
county jail has been much of a relief
from the hardships of life in the Matte
awan Insane Asylum and the Tombs, and
his appearance today showed marked im
provement. Admission to the court was
restricted to persons holding passes issued
by the Sheriff.
As'- outlined in the Associated Press
dispatches last week, Thaw's counsel con
tended that Justice Dowling did not con
form to the legal requirements when he
committed Thaw to Matteawan. They
claim, therefore, that he Is being de
prived of his liberty without due process
of law. They asked Justice Morschauer
to first pass upon this question before
examining witnesses to determine
Thaw's present mental condition.
Justice Morschauer said that he was
unwilling to decide the constitutional
question apart from the sanity question
unless the relator would agree to waive
the question of sanity.
Reserves His Decision.
After some discussion by the oppos
ing attorneys it was arranged to pro
ceed with the trial of both the consti
tutional and Insanity questions, the
Judge reserving his decision on the
former.
The court ruled that the burden of
the proof was an the relator. Thaw, as
he was not under a criminal charge.
This ruling took Thaw's attorneys by
surprise and Mr. Graham said that he
had not anticipated such, an opinion
from the court.
There was a report that If Thaw is
released he will be arrested on ac
count of making threats against a
New York woman. District Attorney
Jerome declined to discuss the report.
Dr. Charles E. Lane, of Poughkeep
sie, and Dr. Frank: E.' McGuire, physi
cian of the Tombs prison, were called
as witnesses for Thaw. Both thought
him entirely sane.
Cross-Examined at Length.
Mr. Jerome brought out that Thaw
told Dr. Lane that Stanford White had
threatened to shoot him and had de
tectives follow him. Mr. Jerome then
asked the doctor if he did not know
that delusions were a feature of
paranoia and that paranoiacs were
usually very cunning. Dr. Lane an
swered in the affirmative.
Pressed by Jerome, Dr. Lane said
that Thaw told him that he skilled
White through an irrational impulse
at the time. He had said nothing
about "divine suggestion."
Mr. Jerome, on cross-examination,
asked Dr. McGuire if Thaw did not
say there was a plot to have him catch
pneumonia and that he was afraid of
being shut in his cell. The doctor said
he did not hear Thaw say that, but
heard Thaw quoted as having said it.
Henry A. Orr. who attended Thaw
in the Tombs and at Matteawan. testi
fied that Thaw appeared rational and
calm. He spoke of no suspicious or
improper treatment.
