THE CHEMPIONSHIP.—The fight for the clam-
pionship did not take place on Saturday. The match had
been made for the championship and 4001., between the
Giant O'Baldwbs, who is 24 years of age, stands 6 feet
• inches high, and weighs 14 stone 71b., and Joe
' Wormsld, who is 26 years old, 'dead., 5 feet 11i inches
• high, and weighs 12 stone ne. It had been agreed that
the expedition should start from London-bridge at five
o'clock under sealed orders, and to that terminus? before
the hour appointed, some 300 persons wended their way.
' Rumours, however, were afloat that the police were in
attendance under various disguises to apprehend the
boxers, and both Jem Mace and Nat Longhorn en-
deavoured to conduct their men to the tram with as
much privacy as possible. Wormald walked into the
station unmolested, but Langham met Baldwin's cab
on London-bride, and ordered George Iles and Dillon,
who were with him, to get out, so as not to attract often-
. Mon, and then told the cabman to drive round into
Teoley-street to the Briton publio-house, where he was
to wait with O'Baldwin till the latter was sent for. He
did not speak to O'Baldwin at all, but appears to have left
him in the dark, and trusted entirely to the discretion of
• the cabman, who took his fare round to the place named,
but finding the house was not open they went under the
' railway arch, and there remained for an hour, expecting
the summons, but none was sent, although the train was
detained nearly an hour for O'Baldwin, who, it is asserted,
was under the bridge within • hundred yards. The referee
tried to find him, in vain, and finally the train started
without him. O'Baldwin at length, tired of waiting,
and finding the special gone, inquired its destina-
tion, and on information received from some unknown
person, proceeded to Farnborough by the South Western
line to met the special, but failed, of course, as the special
never went there, but to the neighbourhood of Itedhill,
and returned to London-bridge at half-past eight. Then
there was an immediate rush to Bells Life office, where
Wormald claimed forfeit on the ground that Oltaldwir
had failed to keep his appointment. While the matter was
ander conaideration bythe referee telegrams were forwarded
to O'Baldwin at Clap2fiam and almost Farnborough,direeting
his immediate return NI town, and one of these was so rue-
cesdul as to bring him to Belts Life office before the return
of the referee. O'lleldwin• Was much excited, and threw all
the blame on Nat Lancheme who he declared had misled
him, and upon whom in his ire lie lavished all kinds of
threats. Soon afterwards the referee formally decided to
award the money to Wormald, on the ground that he bad
kept his appointment, while 0 'Baldwin had failed to do
so. He folly believed that O'Bah.
