left-handers, on, the nose, which drew
claret. In the third round Capeliss sent
Hosken to the carpet with well-drected
right on the point of the jaw. William
remained down eight seconds, but when
he regained his pins he fought his ground
inch by inch. Hosken found the floor
again in the fifth round, and came very
near being sent to dreamland before the
round ended. In the sixth Capeliss was
very tired, and Hosken won a great lead
on points. Referee Smith gave the
award in favor of Hosken, who knocked
the thumb of his right hand out of place
in the first round after which he used AIS
left altogether.
Otto Hasse of the Acme Club and E.
Wiley of the Sacramento Club finished
the evenings sport. The athletes boxed
six rounds. Wiley amused the members
by his grimaces and funny tactics.
Each time Wiley caught a singer on the
nose he danced around the ring like a
merryman and returned to the charge
with renewed energy. He fought gamely
all through the mill and did some very
clever execution with the left, but his
right was practically useless, as he hit
with an open fist. Hasse got the de-
cision on points, which count in scientific
boxing only.
The entertainment was first-cass and it
goes without saying that 1t was much
enjoyed by the large crowd of gentlemen
present.

RYAN LANDS FREELY
ON TOM SHARKEY
Forfeit Put Up to Bind Match Be-
tween the Sailor and
Ti&1cir,o

SYRACUSE. N Y, Feb. 1.-Eighteen
hundred people witnessed the six-round
bout between Tommy Ryan and Tom
Sharkey before the Monarch Athletic Club
tonight The event was purely an exht-
bition in which the Syracuse man clearly
demonstrated that he was far the superior
of his antagonist as boxer, landing
freely. Sharkey was somewhat dazed at
the showing and frequently laid himself
open. No damage was done by either
man.
Tom O'Rourke said tonight: 81 have
forwarded tonight certified check for
s25OO to bind match between Tom Shar-
key and Bob Fitzsimmons before the club
offering the largest purse, the referee and
conditions to be mutually agreed upon as
soon as a club qualities
NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-The time having
elapsed for Tom ORourke to cover Fitz-
simmons $500 for a fight between Fitz-
simmons and Sharkey, O'Rourke came to-
night with a proposition that looks like
business. From Syracuse he sent the
following dispatch to John Boden Jr., a
which will probably have the effect of
bringing the Australian and the sailor to-
gether The telegram was as follows:
I have forwarded certified check for s250O
to you tonight as forfeit to bind a match
between Tom Sharkey and Bob Fitzsmmons
to be decided before the club Offering the
largest purse, referee and time of contest to be
mutually agreed upon. I will meet either Fitz-
simmons or his representative at any time con-
as the club is forthcoming with a suitable
purse.

First-CIass Sport at
the Olympic Club.
WINNERS OF THE CONTESTS.
w. ]. LEONARD WILL DOUBTLESS
CAPTURE THE BELT.
The Handsome Gymnasium Had an
old-Time Crowd of Sport
Lovers Present to See
the Mills.

The gymnasium of the Olympic Club
had the appearance of the good old days
last evening when the members gathered
en- masse to witness the very excellent
programme of fisticuffs which was ar
ranged by the old Trojan of athletics.
John Hammersmith.
This was the first of a grand series Of
boxing contests which will continue for
several months and If all subsequent en-
tertainments will be as good as that
which was witnessed last evening by the
large gathering of sport-lovers, 1t is safe
to say that the Olympic Club will soon
be as strong in membership-that is nu-
merically speaking-as 1t has been in its
palmiest days.
NJ Cerini of the Reliance Athletic
Club and Stewart Carter (unattached)
and one of the best judges of boxing on
this coast, were selected as judges of
the contest and James r. Smith of the
Reliance Club of Oakland. referee. The
announcer stated that the limit of eacn
bout must not exceed six rounds and
that the semi-hnals would be decided on
Wednesday evening, the 10th inst, and
the finals on some evening TO be named
by Leader Hammersmith when the first
series of each class are finished.
The lightweights, or in other words, the
125-pound boxers, had their inning last
evening with the following results:
Peter Duval of the Acme Club and T.
Mckune of the Alvarado Athletic Club
were the first brace TO toe the scratch.
Duval had the better of the first round,
but in the second McKune limbered up
and smashed his opponent several times
in the face, which took considerable
starch out of Duval's collar. In the third
round Duval, advised by his seconds,
went in for give-aUd-take punching and
as a result he compelled his opponent to
seek safety in retreat. McKune finally
cried enough and quit before the end of
the round. The referee gave Duval the
decision.
The second event and which was really
the event of the evening, was the meeting
between w. j. Leonard of the Olympic
Club and James Higgins of the San Fran
cisco Athletic Club. Leonard surprised
the old-timers by the remarkable clever
ness he showed in ducking swings and
ability to infict punishment. He landed
repeatedly on his opponent with right and
left and Higgins looked like q red sign
when the sixth and last round was
fought Leonard was given the decision,
but Higgins. who fought a very game
battle against superior odds, was award
ed by the officers of the club "a special
prize for the gallant and manly stand he
took when all hope seemed to be lost to
him. Higgins, excepting Leonard. was
certainly the best man who competed
during the evening.
John Capeliss of the Acme Club and
William Hosken of the Excelsior Club
were the next brace on the carpet. The
first round was evenly contested. In the
second Hosken annoyed his opponent by

REPORT THAT MILES
WILL BE RELIEVED
This Is Probably One of the Fairy
Tales Sent Out by the Beef
Combine.

WASHINGTON. Feb. lit is reported
that Major General Miles will be relieved
of the command of the army and trans
ferred to the command of a department
or sent to await orders. The order for the
transfer, it is said, went to the President
ready for his signature tonight and 1t is
pTeolcted mat ne Will sign 1t tomorrow.
General Brooke will be placed in COM
mand of the army. Merritt is the rank
ing officer.
1t is said the statement Miles gave out
in New York yesterday determined the
President TO take action. Not only did
Miles repeat the charge that the army
was supplied with 'embalmed beef" but
went further and declared that the
canned roast beef was mere beef pulp
from which all nutriment had been eX-
tracted and that ii was useless as food.

California to Dewey's fleet at Manila.
Yesterday afternoon she went up to Mare
Island, and after being overhauled will
make her first trip from this port.
Before the war the Celtic was the Brit

she Is a DrlSnt, nedilny,

A woman makes a grave mistake who

weakness or disease. 1t IS her duty to be
