DEPUTY
MANAGER SPOILS GAMBLERS COUP
By WiU J. Blattery.
8an Francisco, July 11. It la trnr
; fcow poor old Joe Gam now believes
tht he can regain his lost title. After
the beating he took from the Durable
' Dane at Cof froth's Mission-street arena
last Saturday afternoon, all of Joe's
' friends thought he would beat it quiet-
-Jy bacK to old Baltimore town and re
' fleet while acting as master of cere
monies at his hotel. But no. The old
.boy Immediately falls as noon as Tex
XUckard offered him a return match
In Ely, Nevada, on Labor Day. Joe is
, Just liko them all. He will not admit
' That old a Re has the slpn on him, but
till insists that he is as Rood a man
ma he was a couple of years ago.
The Nevada match is still in the air.
Blckard talks to the boys, $30,000 worth
at a time, thoueh those who have the
low ao-wn say mat 1 ex coujn not nanj?
tiD a nurse of 30 cents at the nresent
It la barely possible that the fltfht will
. be pulled off and if it does, it g-lves
promise of being: quite an attraction,
but where Gans will fifrtlre nobody can
understand after the pitiable showing
he mad a against kelson a weeK ago.
Not till after the (Treat fisrht did the
ports all over the United States real
. lie that it was one of the most mar
velous pugilistic events of the modern
ring. Here was the past master of
them all for the last ten years up
gainst a rough, rugged fellow without
kill or science and who. was not -con-.
ceded a chance by anyone save the suck-
ers. To think that this man. whom the
; champion was credited with having
practically beaten to a pulp at Ooldfiekl
less thar. two years before, should come
back and not onlv wrest the title from
Ihe greatest lightweight the ring has
ver known, but Incidentally heat him
at his own came, is more than the
mart ones can get through their heads
ven iu this late flate,
But that's the layout and nobody can
coniraaict it. xne io,tio sports rrom
ll over the country sat there and saw
: the old master hammer the Dane with
those penetrating right hooks and
wings of his for four rounds. They
i were flgurirg' on what round Nelson
'would strike the" mat for the count and
they had all agreed that about eleven
-rounds would do for him, when all of
si sudden,, the treacherous tide of vlr
torv took a sudden switch and ere thev
realized what had happened. Gans was
en me tocoggan:
Joe simply fought himself out . So
jure war be that he would give the
Dane a decisive trimming ere the bell
founded the end of the twentieth round
xnai ne net an even js.ono on this issue.
He thought that he had his man studied
Out anl he commenced to hammer him
with all the power he had nt his com
mand. But when Nelson failed to back
yp at the end of the fourth round, the
neart or tne champion failed him; and
at the same time his steam quickly
"B"n in et;o. in anotner round the
reat champion saw that he was In.
He saw. too, that Nelson came faster
than ever. For the first time In his
18 years' active career in the ring, the
champion realized that a sure defeat
was awaiting: him. He did the best he
could for the balance of the fight, but
the old lime strene-tli .and. cunning had
fled forever and after stalling as long
as he crmld, th hero of a thousand
ring battles sunk slowly to the floor
from exhaustion and was content with
being counted out.
Though it would appear that Gens
was not the Gans who went 42 gruelling
rounds at Goldfleld with Nelson less
than two years ago and was strong at
the finish. Mill jill credit Is due the
Tew champion for the marvelous fight
he made. Never before in his life rM
Kelson fiTht svirh a great battlf ns hp
did last Saturday afternoon Not only
was he aggressive and capable of tak
ing more punishment than ever, but
the Dane was exceedingly clever In his
wkward way. so clever in fa'-t as to
baffle the master In front of him and
beat htm to all the leads after the' first
foor rounds.
The men who won their money on
Kelson did no know until a week after
what a close cnll they had from being
tnade the victims ot a huge Job by
the wise ones, who- had backed the
chumplon off the boards. Tbjsflb
gamblers made a desperate attempt R
have the fight stopped by the law at
the end of the twelfth round, hare Gans
called the victor and thus get away with
the coin which they saw vanishing
rapidly.
it ail happened this way. These men
realized that Qan could not last more
than a couple of rounds, but at the
same time, tney noticed that Nelson was
frightfully cut up and to tne casual ob
server not in condition to continue the
fight
Grabbing hold of Jim Carroll, a Ban
Mateo county deputy sheriff, they hand
ed blm a fine line of talk on this score
and Induced him to Jump into the ring
at the end of the twelfth round, and, af
ter examining Nelson, come out and de
clare the fight stopped and award the
verdict to Gans because of Nelson's in-
lablity to continue.
When he got the office from the gang.
Carroll lumped into the ring and pro-
:eeuea to carry out instructions. All
went well till he rushed over to Nelson s
cor er. Then 'Willis Urltt took one look
at the country sheriff and followed this
wiin one wna swing, which u lauaeo.
would have knocked Carroll out of the
ring. Big Chief Jack Grace, another of
Nelson s right hand men, also tore at
Carroll, who lost his nerve at the crit
ical moment and. Jumping out of tUac
ring, lost himself in the crowd, out of
fear of going against the men who
framed up the Job for him.
Britt was so fearful that they still
had another one up their sleeves that
he would not complain, but Instructed
the Battler to wade in after Gans and
finish him as soon as possible. The
Dane followed Instructions and his work
was so w-Ul done that Brltt kept his
own council and tiie story never would
have leaked out had not one of the
cringing sure thing boys who was stung
come out and hollered because he lost
fz.uut) on Gans.
The numerous lights of the rlnr who
were nere on the Job, either matched or
seemng a maicn a couple of weeks ago,
have all faded away and now the town
Is fight quiet for a time at least The
next one on the card is the Ketchel
Hugo Kelly go, when will be pulled off ot
the Coliseum on the last night of the
month. .This is quite a card, because
Ketchel is one of the brightest stars
or tne pugilistic firmament.
Ketchel is in town. loOKlng bigger .and
stronger than ever. He Is a formidable
heavyweight right now, weighing shout
ISO in hia clothes and growing every
day. He does not know what fear Is.
His one desire is to hook up with Tom
my Burns for the championship of the
world. If he ever gets Burns Into the
ring he cnys he will knock him out
within 20 rounds, arid there are thou
sands of others in this city who believe
he will, too.
Packey McFarland and Freddie Welch,
the lightweights who fought a 25-round
draw before Jim Jeffries' club at Los
Angeles on July 4. are both in town and
talking for ,a fight with Battling Nel
son. Neither of the young men, how
ever, wants to take a nhanrn against
the Dane In a longer route than 20
rounds. MeFarland Is still hollering that
Jeffries robbed him out of the decision
though everybody from this city who
saw the fight declares that the verdict
was n'very Just one. Thev claim t.iat
Welch made a monkey out of MeFarland
for 20 rounds and that the Chicago hov
came through with a Garrison finish
and then tried to bull .ieff. Hut (he
great old champion would not fall and
he threw both hands in the air.

The recent attempts made to revive
the four-round game in this city have
apparently failed woefully and it Is
likely that this branch of the sport will
soon pass away for all time. There Is
one club In the field at present and
though It enjoys a monopoly and nulla
off a show every month, only a corpor
al's guard turns out to see the gloves
riy anri therefore, the promoters have
not been making exptis. s
This only goes to prove that amateur
boxing never will fco. The game as It
is eonducte.i now Is under the Jurisdic
tion of the P. A. A . the executive com
mittee, of which will not permit cash
prizes to be awarded. Therefore the
fighters are seeking fields where thev
are paid for thlr efforts. The game

fha move Is a serious one. Alfred
uwynne vanaermit ana james R.acne r
are really the sponsors of the m6vement,
nd both have entamixnea statues on for
eign soil. Tha blow delivered to raco
track betting in New Tork and other
states has bad much to do with the
movement
Canada America of Scrappers.
Ed W. Smith of Chicago, a well known
sporttng writer, - makes the assertion
that In three, months America wffl be
denuded df famous and scientific fight
ers. Whether Mr. Smith really foresees
such a calamity or whether his dope has
overshot Hhe bounds of truth must be
seen later. However, it is hardly likely.
mlth says the craze to go aoroaa ami
garner laurels is rampant. Tommy
Burns, Willie Lewis, Jack Johnson and
Jimmy Britt have set the ball rolling.
Joe Gans seems to have been bitten by
the same rerm. and ulready Dick Oreen,
Chicago scrapper of some local reputa
tion, has started. Gans would likely do
well abroad.
Some of tha aristocracy of the old
soil still cltna to the old notion made
so famous In Rodney Stone. They like
musola and like to see It in action, and
they are level-headed sports willing to
wager their esoteric garments on the
lads of their choice if such a thing
should be necessary.
Black fighters, it would seem, have
always done well abroad. Just why this
is. is ft matter for speculation, but nev
ertheless, it Is the truth. They seem
to be picked up as heroes for the simple
reason tnat roreign countries no not ros
ter tha preludices against the race that
America does. Peter Jackson, the Aus
tralian, was lionized In a manner that
must have made him dizzy. However,
he was an exceptional man, one of su
perior tntalllgenca and really deserved
especial attention at the hands of the
English. Jack Johnson was not so
classy, but notwithstanding this, he re
ceived a full mead of honors and was
tapped on tha head by the nobility,
which is auite an honor.

Vo Bars In England.
Another thing, there is not the bar to
fighting in England and Ireland that
one finds in this country. Tho oil
game still holds forth almost as many
Inducements r.s it did in the good old
days when the ring was stretched in tho
open and the aristocrats drove up in
their tallyhos wearing bottle green coats
to see the near-naked giants wallop
each other with bare knuckles.
But, as was said the first place, the
eyes of the entire sporting kingdom
are now on England. With the shoot
Ing contests the games are fairly under
way. Tha American revolver and rifle
team was one of the first foreign teams
upon the ground and they lost no time in
getting down to practice, which had a
whole lot to do with their showing In
the contests. Other contestants were
England, Switzerland, Greece, Canada,
Denmark. France, Germany, Sweden.
Finland, Holland and Hungary. The
Americans competed In the individual
matches and their work spoko well for
a new country where, not many years
ago, one had to know how to shoot If
he wanted to wear a full head of hair.
The appointment by the state depart
ment of James Sullivan as United States
commissioner has made that worthy
busier than ever.
