The local interest in the big fight on
Coney Island last night was intense.
It has only been exceeded when a
heavyweight championship was at
stake. There was big crowd about
the telegraph offices, but the largest

crewding to the doors, and at times
extending, out to the middle of the
street. Bulletins from the ringside
were read ass fast as they came over
the wires. and the delay only increased
the size and impotence OF the throng.
The reading of the bulletins was ac-
companied by a craning of necks and
perfect silence.
Several times during the evening the
crowds broke into cheers. Particularly
was this true when. soon after the
wires told about the principals enter

When the result was announced Mr..

ride, but Mr.. Heaiy was very sorry he
had made such a rash agreement. A
compromise was effected, andlthe terms
of the wager were carried out immedi-

Wheeling had the bases filed twice in
the second inning, bur the last time the
necessary hit was lacking, Connors
cutting off at least two doubles by fast

trying to score on the hit. Another
