STEINER DEFEATS ROWAN
CALIFORNIAN WINS IN FOUR
TENTH ROUND.
Seconds Throw Up Sponge to Stop the
Terrible Punishment That Is Be
ing inflicted.
6Snecial to The Herald.O


Cheyenne. Wyo.. Aug. 2o.-Jack
Steiner of California again demon
strated his superiority over Dummy
Rowan at Rock Springs tonight Rowan
threw up the sponge in the fourteenth
round of the fastest battle ever seen
in this section, after receiving terrible
punishment from the right and left
swings of Steiner.
The fight was pulled off in the opera
house which was damned to the doors,
several thousand persons crowding in
to witness the battle.
Great interest had centered in this
event, not only in Rock Springs and
other Wyoming towns, but in Salt Lake
and Denver where considerable money
was wagered.
Steiner was the favorite in the
betting but there was plenty of Rowan
money in evidence at the ringside.
1t was o'clock when Rowan entered
the ring, followed a few moments later
by Steiner. Both men were cheered
to the echo. They are popular in Rock
Springs. where they fought sixteen
rounds a month ago, Stelzner being the
winner at that time.
Tom Pointer of Evanston officiated
as referee and Mike Naylor of KEN
merer as time keeper.
Rowan Seems OVERTURNED
! When the fighters advanced to the
center of the ring both showed up to
good advantage Steiner looked to be
in better condition than Rowan, who
appeared overturned.
/ The men mixed matters from the
/ start. The first round was an even
/ break.
, IN the second Steiner knocked
! Dummy" down twice with right and
/ left swings on the jaw.
During the next three rounds honors
were about evenly divided. but Rowan
seemed to be unable to land on Steiner
| effectively.
In the ninth Dummy" was sent to
the floor again and took the count
I In the eleventh Jack put him down
twice, repeating the performance in
! the twelfth
Throw Up the Sponge.
In the fourteenth Dummy could
fight no longer, and to save him from
a Knockout his seconds threw up the
| sponge.
The defeated man put UP a game
fight from the first and at times forced
the fighting, showing admirable block
ing ability but he had to give in tC
superior generalshiD and to Stelzner's
terrible right and left swings.
Rowan was weak at the conclusion
of the fight and had TO be assisted
! from the ringside. He showed marks
| of Jacks jabs on the face and neck
Steiner received little or no punish
| ment.

WILD TALK OF THE !
EUROPEAN JOURNALS
Stated the Powers Will Hang
Tuan and the Empress.
TO LAY PEKING IN ASHES

IneSe ana many Otner Sensational
Stories Arc AroPublishcd-Only Thought
of the Powers Is How Best to ReacS
City of Picking.
LONDON, July 17.-Europcan Journals
are indulging in great deal of wild
talk, credlting the powers with having
decided to lay PeSing in ashes, remove
the capital to Canton and hang the en-.
press and Prince Tuan, but the writers
fail to take into account the difficulties
which would attend such undertakings.
However the chancellories fully recog.
nizc the magnitude of the task confront
ing the great powers. AS a matter Of
fact, as has already been pointed out.
the only thought for the moment of the
powers is how to best reach Pckinp.
Once there they can be depended OIL, &C.
cording to the best official information,
to exact whatever penalty appears to be
the most striking and effective.
The news of the success of the allied
forces at Tien Tsin, though that success
has been dearly bought, appears to clear
the air somewhat. This victory over
the Chinese, it is hoped, will enable the
allies to resume preparations for an ad-
vance, especially since it is announced
that the Japanese force of $4,000 will all
be disembarkcd by July 10 at the latest.
The suggestions of scattering the
forces throughout China i'll pursuit of
the Boxers emanato wholly from ire
sponsiblc quarters. In official circles
there is a full realization of the neces-
sity of having the coast towns occupied
and secure before proceeding to PekinS.
The only course open to the powers Is
to remain in theteapital until fanaticism
wears itself ont and the elements of an
orderly NATIVES government begin to
emerge.
According to Shanghai dispatch
100000 Chinese troops, armed with
MausCr rifles and modern artillery, arc
encamped ut three points within 40
miles of Shanghai, ready to burn the
town III the event of an attack by the
Europeans upon the Woo Sung forts.
According to Il telegram from Che
Foo 10 of the allied troops werc killed
in the assault upon tho native city Of
Tien TSin.

Shirt waists for the winter viii be of

trimming save plaits and small but
tons The yoke. one is glad 20 note, is

smarter OH certain figures than the
plain SHIRT waist model with lis few
scant folds extending from choker to
belt but it is a model not becoming
to everybody, and. oh, SO difficult to fit.
Not so much attention is given now
to silk waists. To be worn with skirt
and jacket suit the cloth blouse is
considered more modish, while for
dressier tops lace and panne velvets are
the first choice. Some of these have
little basque elects that seem novel,
but it is doubtful If they will become
popular A separate top gives an I'M
graceful line when 1t descends below
the waist.
Piaids that have been so fashionable
