SCHENECTADY MATCH OFF.
Professor Dutchey Has Taken His
Fighters Elsewhere.

The defeat of Jack Steiner by Gus
Rubin at Denver Monday night has
rather put a damper on the proposed
Daley Stelzner fight here. Professor
Dutchey has taken his fighters to Mer-
cur. and Cotton is matched with
Dummy" Rowan for a fight there next
month. 1t is scarcely likely that Pro-
fessor Dutchey will return to Salt Lake
for any extended stay. His experiences
here were neither pleasant nor profit
able and he thinks Salt Lake is good
town for prize fighters to stay away
from.

London. Sept 19.-The English papers
have been printing ridiculous dispatches
daily regarding the International yacht
race. The Daily Mail. which. a short
time ago. announced that a number of
Americans had gone mad because they
could not discover the Shamrocks
lines, today pictures the whole of New
York in an almost similar condition,
saying the Americans are the most
emotional people in the world, and that
in addition TO the yacht race. Admiral
Dewey's coming has made the people
"frenzied with excitement
The English people take all this lit
orally, and many unpleasant comments
over Americans lack of self-control are
heard
Most of the English papers today
have specials speaking approvingly Of
the Shamrock's trial yesterday, but the
Times correspondent cables that it
compared unfavorably with the Colum-
bias performance under similar
weather conditions.
