Wanted to Throw Up Sponge. Jack Robinson, the Dane's man ager, admitted todnv that he wanted to throw up the sponge in the 34th round. Ho broached the matter to Nelson, but the Battler declared that if he stopped the fight he would never speak to him again. Seeing the terrible beating that his boy wa receiving, Robinson decided to tako matters into his own hands, and but for the interference of Nelson's old seconds, would hove toAsed the sponge into the ring. Robinson was restrained by main force from hoist ing tho signal of defeat, Dick Wheeler and George .Meyers holding his arms while Abdul snt on him. As the battle went on there was nothing to it but Wolgast. He outboxed and outgeneraled Nelson throughout and was in danger but once, and that -was in tho 22d round, when Nelson sent him to tho floor with a right to the jaw. Wolgnst was palpably hurt, although he was up in a second and managed to stull through the round He went to his corner dazed, but the minute's rest sent him haek as strong as over. Thereafter ho fought a brilliant bnttle and hud practically every round until the finish. That he did not put Nelson away, ho claims, was due to instructions from Tom Jones to pluy safe and not take a chance. Ro that aB it may, ho landed often -with full right swings and long upporcuts on Nelson's jaw, apparently nutting every ounce bo hind tho blows, but his best efforts did not show anything resembling a Xinumer. Dane Has Gone Back. That the Dane has gone back can not be denied. The old dnsh was not it i ... .it . mere, nnu ins recuparativo power was only a memory. It is tho old story of fighting once too often Nelson's 13 years of strenuous ring work, in which period ho took more beating than any three men over en dured, have sapped his strength, and with his yenrs, have brought him to a stage whoro muscular degeneration has sot in. That this is the enso was fore casted several days ago, when Nel son took one of his numerous lay offs from training. Evory fighter who sticks to the game long enough and trains, often has the same trou ble.
