On the night of the 22nd of this
month. the Gardner brothers, Oscar
and Eddie, will be given opportunities
TO distinguish themselves, as both are
matched to box on that day. Eddie
will meet Jack McClelland. of Pitts
burg, in the arena of the Metropolitan
Athletic Club, and their contest prom
Uses to be the very best ever witnessed
here. Both men are very scientific,
and with equal capacity for standing
punishment and for infiicting It. NO
better match has been made in this
setcion of the country.
Eddie Gardner is expected to arrive
in the city to-day, coming from Gin
cinnati. He will at once begin active
training for his contest with McClel-
land Gardner secured a decision over
Danny Rowan in the tenth round, in
their battle at Portsmouth, o., Tues
day night Accounts of the contest
say that the fighting was very fast for
five rounds, and that Gardner had ey-
erything his own way after that time.
Rowan was not put out, but he was
groggy. and was going fast when the
decision was given to Gardner.
Oscar Gardner will meet Mike Far
ragher. in Columbus. if the men can
come TO terms regarding weight. All
other conditions have been agreed to,
but Mr.. Mike Murphy, manager for
Farragher, stated yesterday that the
Youngstown boy wants TO weigh l33
pounds at six o'clock in the evening.
Gardner insists on weighing in at the
ringside. but Farrag CHER alleges that the
time is too short for him TO get down
to that weight and remain there With
out weakening himself. If Gardner
agrees to Farragher's terms, there Will
probably be eight or ten pounds dit
ference between the men. III favor OF
Farragher, when they step into the
ring. Mr. Murphy expects reply
to-day to his last proposition to Gard
nerS manager.
If Jack Bowen really means bust
ness, it appears that he get on a
match with Farragher before the East
Liverpool Athletic Club. He insists
on the contest taking place before
some other club, giving as a reason
that there will not be enough money
to Justify him in boxing at East Liver
pool. Farragher and John Parry were
well paid for their contest in Liver
pool. and it was merely an exhibition.
In view of the fact that no other club
appears willing to handle Bowen he
could best prove the sincerity OF his
intentions by signing articles with
Farragher for contest at Liverpool
