Kansas City.' March 2ti.-Frank Ootch
took two straight falls from Raoul de
Kouen in their matcii tor tne worms
chamDlonahiD here last night, before
one of the largest houses that haa ever
assembled at a wrestling match , In
America. The big American' title waa
never in danger, and he threw the
Frenchman with comparative ease. A
full nelson gave " the Humboldt farmer
the first fall, and his famous toe hold
cauaed the capitulation of the foreigner
in the second. The falls went 14:45 and
13 minutes, respectively." ..
" De Rouen tried his usual rough tac
tics several time during the bout, but
as Ootch can rough some himself, .the
foreigner desisted shortly. Repeatedly
he tried to strike Gotch in the face
with hi elbow, but Frank would come
back and twist a little harder on his
bold.
Gotch weighed 212 pounds when the
men went on. the mat, de Douea being
nearly 50 pounds heavier. Uesplte this
welaht handlcao Raoul aDDeared nervous
when, they entered the ring, something
that haa . not happened in any or bis
other bouts. When the gong sent the
grappler to work, de Rouen took the
aggressive. Seven minute later the
big frogeater went " to the "' mat, with
the American on top. a leg hold doing
the work. Gotch tried toe hold and
leg holds for 20 minutes Until the crowd
waa wild with excitement. - Gotch's toe
hold were punishing and the foreigner
waa in aeonv every time ne ciampeo
them on. A bar lock and a hammer lock
were fastened on de Rouen, but neither
waa effective, although the pain was
great. I
Twice the men went off the mat,

and slip a.xuii nelson over his neaa
The Frenchman made considerable re

Gotch made .the second fall shorter.
He sent de Rouen down in eight min
