For o long while iilere has been q great
deal OF talk among sporting men as to the
qualities of James Fell. commonly known as
the Western Wonder. and when he arrived
here and so easily bested Harry Langdon it
was said he could whip almost anybody near
his size on his tactics. Fell is a big man. and
he follows John l.. Sullivan's way Of rushing
his man. He finally was matched to spar Joe
Lannon. formerly Of the Sullivan com mbination.
In ten rounds. Marquis OF Qusensberry rules.
and last night was the date set. and the Palace
Rink in Brooklyn was tho place. Fell has
very creditable record. having fought over two
score battles with and without gloves. and has
always come out even. II net first. He hns been
training pretty hard under the supervision Of
William Oliver OF Harlem, and he weighed
when no entered the ring last night Just 165
pounds. He stands feet inches and is 80
years old. Joe Lannen is 90 years old, weighs
$50 pounds. and stands foet l0ts inches. Both
men appearsd in prime condition. The gloves

The gloves Fell used were those which he
has worn In all his glove fights and which he is
very superstitious about. Jere Dunn was ref
cree. He cautioned the men about roughing on
the ropes or wrestling.
FIRST RoUND.-Fell went in In his usual hard
fashion. but 1t was hit for hit, tho left hand OF
each playing havoc with tho others face. 1t
was hurricane fight and the audience got
highly excited. Fell was knocked down twice
inesuccession.
SECOND RoUNp.-Fell came up a little fresh
er. but 1t was now evident he was no match for
Lannon whose left arm shot out with great
precision and force and generally landed, Fell
was knocked down again, and when he got up
he staggered all over the stage and seemed to
want 10 wrestle with Lannen, trying to throw
him over tho ropes to tho noor. Before time
was up the police. who were watching the fight,
interfered, and the match was at an end,
Jere Dunn said: Gentlemen, this match was
made to be a Knockout, not draw So ac-
cordinE to the agreement. will not give any

Neither Fell nor Lannon seemed any the
