That the nursing bottle, either di-

McCON'S CLOSE CALL.
ChOynski Prevented From Winning
by BIundering Timekeeper.

Sponge throwing and bell ringing are
popular adjuncts to local prize fights at
present. The contest at the Broadway Ath-
letc Club. New York. last night between
Mccoy and Choynski was anything but
satisfactory 90 the thousands of people
who had paid from 81 to 81 to witness the
contest Many were of the opinion that
the ringing of the bell for the second round
was purposely delayed in order to allow
Mccoy more time to recover The onlook-
crs seemed to think that the management
had bet On Mccoy, giving heavy odds Odds
were offered before the fight that Choynssi
would be knocked out inside of ten rounds
Both men fought desperately in the OPEN
ing round, and to ar impartial observer it
looked as if Mccoy had slightly the better
of it. In the second round Mccoy was sent
to the floor four times, ana at one time he
was hanging limp on the ropes by one arm
apparently all but unconscious. One of Nc
| coys seconds went to him. and, pattine
| him on the arm, while the referee was
| back to his senses. Both men forgot
science during the remainder of the round.
| The men fought more like wild beasts in
the third round. casting science to the
winds and pummeling each other all over
| the ring. Both men went to the floor and
| McCoys face was covered with blood.
| After the bell rang for the ending of the
| round Mccoy deliberately smashed Choyn-
| ski on the point of the jaw, and the Cali
| fnrnian went to the floor if he had been
| felled with an AK. 1t looked like deIib-
| crate foul 10 many people. and most Of the
| spectators were Of the opinion that Choyn-
| ski had been robbed. The referee the
| same individual who Officiated at the Nc
| Govern-DixOn fight, gave the fight to Nc
| Coy.
When the referee announced his decision
there were loud cries Of Fraud"

Ureds of cushions We're thrown at the ref
cree and Mccoy by the infuriated spec
tators.
Late arrivals who had been promised ad-
mission tickets for 81, found the box office
closed when they reached the building,
but plenty of tickets were in the hands
of spectators, who demanded anything
from three to five times their face value.
The building was packed to suffocation,
even the aises being choked with angry
and perspiring humanity.
Choynskis seconds threw up the sponge,
while the referee. timekeepers and other
officials were wrangling together over the
result.
Choynsh had not an ounce OF fight left
| in him. His seconds threw up the sponge
as Mccoy rushed from his corner for the
| opening Of the fourth round, but Choynski
| was still in dreamland, and Mccoy was
declared the winner.

TIES IN THE BOWLING LEAGUE.
Carroll Institute Team Twice Defeats
the Golden EaSleS.

So even has been the bowling of the va
rious teams holding membership in the Dis
trict Bowling League this season that al
ming there have been ties between some of
the clubs for position.
Last night two teams-the Golden Eagles
and the Carrolls-competed in a three-g game
series. the CAROLS winning two. the out
come being that today two teams are tied
for second place and two more tied imme-
diately behind them. The closeness of the
league race is the talk of bowling circles
for never before has the season advanced
to the present stage with so many clubs
standing a chance a the championship.
The first five are SO closely punched that
any might win. And the Business Men,
while holding the tail end, not un-
worthy contestants, their percentage for a
tail-end club being good, and there being
no reason to doubt their ability to draw up
to at least slightly better position.
Last nights games were bowled at the
Institute alleys. Many bowling enthusiasts
were on hand. and the rooters were about
evenly divided in their affections. The
games were rather Of the in and out va
riety. since both sides got some good
strings, but were also compelled to stand
a low game each. Tony Rice bowled a
wonderfully even game, and further evil
