At that time only three men were

\ Fake Fight IN Which Choyhski
Apparently Loses.

NEW YORK. Jan. 12-Kid Mccoy
got the decision over Joe Choynski in
bout which lasted three rounds at
the Broadway Athletic Club tonight
Choyinski would have had the fight
in the second round had it not been
for an accident as to the timekeep-
ing.
He had fioored the Kid four times,
but the timekeeper pulled the bell as
Mccoy was counted for the limit Of
ter seconds and this saved the kid
from absolute defeat Choynskl's
seconds protested vigorously but Re
fierce Johnny White while knowing
the round was short By many sec
onds, stood by the official timekeeper
and ordered the men to continue when
the gong rang again fer the opening
Of the third round.
ChoynskPs clevemess outpointed
and outshadowed ali Of McCoy's clev-
er ring work.
Mccoy having escaped defeat in the
second round was again lucky in the
third round, as the blow with which
he sent Choynski down and out was
delivered almost two seconds after the
bell had rung for he completion Of
the third round There was great
deal Of noise in the building at the
time the gong sounded and undoubt-
ediy neither man heard the clang OF
the bell.
In the northeast portion Of the build
ing there was tumult caused by one
Of the spectators dropping dead. The
man was very much excited during
the bout and expressed himself freely
as to MeCoy's being out before the
bell rang. He slid from his seat dead
as the bell sounded for the beginning
Of the third round.
Colonel Mike Padden, timekeeper
for Mccoy, said afterward that the
round was clipped by forty seconds.
That Mccoy was groggy and practi-
cally out when the gong sounded.
Choynski, while feeling rather sore,
said that he had no fault to find with
the referee, and in conversation with
the latter exoneIated White from all
blame. After the bout Choynski and
Mccoy signed articles TO meet again
under the same conditions at the
Broadway Athletic Club February 20.

a leak had sprung in that great embank-

The leak was small when he found it, but

finger in the crevasse, and kept II there all
the long night through, until help came and

We're detailed on the case.
The only theory that would fit the
case is that the diamonds worn by
Mrs. Corse were exposed to view
while she was trying TO get into the
drugstore in North Clark street and
that she was followed by the men
in the cab. The Chicago avenue po-
lice are puzzled over the affair.
Besides the diamonds, her nceket

PENALTY FOR DISPLAY.
California Style Of Wearing Diamonds
Dangerous in Chicago.

CHICAGO. Jan. 12-Mrs. John
corse of 2S9 Dearbord avenue, was
seized by robbers shortly after mid
night at Chestnut street near North
Clarke street, thrust into a cab and
afterward robbed Of diamonds valued
at $500 She was brutally beaten, her
hands lacerated and her face bruised.
She was so badly hurt and so badly
overcome that she is almost prostra-
ted. Mrs. Corse, who is &c years Of
age. came to Chicago recently from
California for the purpose of studying
elocution. Wednesday evening she at
tended an entertainment ON the West
side. returning to her apartments
about midnight. She was feeling i'll
and went to a drugstore about two
blocks from where she lives. This
store, however, was closed and Mrs.
Corse started for home. She had not
proceeded half a block homeward,
when, according to the story she told
to the police. she was seized from be
hind by two men who drove up in
a cab and they thrust her into the
vehicle. stiffiing her cries and drove
away at a rapid gait
The cab was driven TO a resort near
Clark and Division streats. The wo-
man was forced to enter the building
and being too i'll and frightened TO
make an outcry she was partly car
zied and partly dragged. Here an
effort was made to secure the dia-
monds she had worn to the entertain
meRt in the evening. and which she
still had on. The gems were set in
a brooch. The brooch was secured,
but the rings were tight and could
not easily be removed from the fin
gers. The robbers then procured a
pair Of pinchars and wrenched the
diamonds from their settings. While
this was going on, Mrs. Corse re-
sisted as best she could. but found
herelf almost powerless in the grasp
of the men. After the robbery she
was again put in the cab and, in
response to her pleading she was TAX
