Tho crowd was orderly, and everything passed off according to schedule ex cept the number of rounds fought. Tho affair was scheduled for a 20 round contest between Dummy Row an and Bert Peterson, but "Dummy" -was knocked out in tho tenth by a straight right hander to tho jaw. Eefereo Charley Howard gave gen eral satisfaction, and his decisions v?ero usually accepted without ques tion. Peterson was handled by "Billy" Hunter, while Mr. Schrock performed a like service for Rowan. Tho gate ir-ccipts amounted to $485.50, which were divided on a basis of CO ?nd 40 per cant. Peter son had th 3 best of the flght through rut the contest, he being at no time in danger from Rowan. "Billy" hunter is now attempting to perfect an arrangement between "Silent" Rowan and Tommy Tracy of Portland, to be pulled off here on the 17th. If this goes through, it is predicted that spectators will witness one of tho fastest and most exciting contests ever seen on the coast. There had been the usual question ings during Saturday, and some had predicted the contest was "fixed"; how, no one attempted to say, yet thlero were those who were suspi cious. But tho scene at the ringside before the game started proved con clusively to the spectators that every thing was on the square. The delay in selecting a referee and arriving at a thorough understanding before tho mill commenced convinced tho sports that they wero to see a "straight" contest. "When Peterson stripped, it was seen at once that ho was in the best condition of his career. His muscles i "were trim and ho showed strong. I During the arguments over a referee, It was seen that Peterson looked a triflio nervous. He was continually eyeing his rival, who had entered tho ring and stripped some time before Peterson's arrival. . ..Rowan, whoso weight was given at 170 pounds, looked to weigh at least 190, being tuilt on the lines which character-1 ized tho old-time prize fighters, short and stocky, and apparently ab'e to accept and assimilate great punish ment. It was seen at once that Peter son had the advantage in reach and height, and speculation was rife at enco. Roaiu. in trying out the ring and canvas, showed unusual quick ness, and tho wise ones wero quite ready to bellev. ho would give Peter s'" n an interesting time. Peterson looked lighter than at tho time he fought the "Montana Kid," but he appeared ready for a long con test. Tho opening round demonstrated tho belief of the audience that tho contest was to be a good one. Tho men wlent at it hammer and tongs, after a few seconds feinting for open ings. Peterson was seen to have tho lead, and commenced to land his left hank jabs en Rowan's face. Rowan was blejdin,5 bciore tho round closed. Peterson adoj.ted a circular method of fighting, and pranced about his opponent. Rowan stood right up to the game, and was getting encour agement from tho crowd for his lino ducking and blocking of Peterson's lilows. Yet, Peterson was landing his left frequently. Every round Avas a repetition of tho first, and, try as he would, Peterson was unable to reach Rowan with his right punch un tl tho latter part of tho contest. Tho til tho latter part of tho contest. Tho Rowan scorned waiting for a favora ble oponlng, and crowded Peterson toward tho corner whenever ho could, but Peterson saw tho danger of be ing caught at closo quarters, and al ways got away uicely. Rowan swung many rights for Potorson's jaw, but none of them lnnded until lato in tho flg)it, when ho game through twice with heavy exchanges. Although Peterson was landing his left so frequently in the early part of the fight, It looked as If they were not causing Rowan any trouble, for he showed no distress and was after Peterson every minute. It was not until tho eighth round that he evi denced any sign of uneasiness, and then a change was detected in tho look of confidence he had carried throughout. Near the closo of the eighth round, Rowan went to tho floor after a hard left hand blow, and the gong sounded beforo the count was started. He was no disrcbsed, and was on his feet immediately. In the ninth a hard i left opened a three-quarter-inch cut over Rowan's left eye and he bled piofusely. His eye immediately be gan to swell, and the nudtenco saw that he was weakening. The tenth brought tlvo finish. Peterson landed a stiff left which dazed Rowan, and then quckly sent his right to the jaw. Rowan dropped to his knees, and tho referee counted the ten seconds which put Rowan out of tho contest. Tho verdict was unanimous that Rowan put up a gam econtest in tho face of the disadvantage of age and shorter reach. His pose in the ring was the best that has been seen on Coos Bay. Peterson's friends find that ho has Improved wonderfully in the past year, and are now predicting great things for 'him. Ho yet shows the novice, however, for he has not yet learned the advantage of following up advantages which como to him continually in a contest. He is not a one-hand fighter by any means, and can do as good execution with ono hand as with the other, though he uses his left most frequently. Ho showed good generalship in the flght, and newer placed himself in danger. He emerged from tho contest with out a scratch, and seemed good for several times the amount of work he had done. The preliminary was between Tommy Cassell and Jack Hogan. It was announced as a friendly bout, and served to put the spectators in a happy mood for tho big mill. It was purely a bout for points, and tho contestants sparred for four rounds.
