SOUIBS OF SPORT

Eddie Santry and Jack Balm, both of
Chicago, fought ten rounds before the
Peoria athletic association last night,
Santry being awarded the decision by
William Lynch, the referee. The con-
test was one of the best ever seen there.
Balm was the aggressor and forced the
fighting from the start, but Santry's
clever work gave him the decision. The
spectators were with Balm, however,
and thought him entitled to the honors.
Billy Clingman, once a shortstop for
the Chicago National league club and
later a member of the Washington team,
was signed yesterday TO manage the Mil
waukee team in the American associa-
tion. Clingman and II. ID. Quin of Mil
waukee met by appointment at the Le-
land hotel, Chicago, and the contract was
fixed.
Benny Yanger. the Italian feather
weight, is still king in his class. Last
night in Chicago in IL six-round glove
fight with Joe Bernstein, the ghetto
champion, Yanger beat the Hebrew
fighter in the last round and a half after
getting a severe punching himself in the
first four and half rounds of the bat
tie. Heavy artillery to the short ribs
won the fight for Yanger. He fought a
mastery battle against the greater ex-
perience and superior clsverness and
speed of the New Yorker. He simply
wore his man down with strength and
stamina. 1t was u case of youth being
served Following are the results of the
other contests:
Johnny Reese beat Young McInerney,
lO5 pounds. in the second round, AIcIn
erney being unable to defend himself.
Referee, Jimmy Bardell.
Jack Gallagher, l22 pounds, beat
Young Corkey in the fourth round, the
bout being stopped after Corkey had
been knocked down and rendered help
less. Referee, George Siler.
Sammy Phillips. 145 pounds, beat jim
my Dewar after six rounds of the hot
test fighting ever seen in a local arena.
1t was fairly even fight. Referee,
Hogan.
Billy Stiff and Jack Beauscholte, catch
weights, fought to draw in a loose,
scrambling bout in which there were but
few effective punches. Referee, Malachy
Hogan.

The Mail Steamer Russie In a Precari.
Gus Condition.

Marseilles, Jan. "a terrible dis
aster threatens the mail steam Russie,
from Oran, which stranded Monday on
the coast near the village of Faraman
during violent storm. with so passen-
gers and crew of 40 on board.
She has heeled to the starboard and
the waves are sweeping over her. Des-
perate attempts to rescue her COM
pany by hfeboats and steam tugs were
made Monday, and have been repeat
ed, but thus far the rough seas have
prevented every effort TO approach
her. The wind is still blowing a hur-
ricane, with no signs OF abatement. A
great crowd is assembled along the
shores excitedly watching the en-
deavors for those on board the ship.
which is humping heavily as the seas
dash over her. Rockets have been
fired, but each time the line has fallen
short. Rear Admiral Besson, naval
prefect of Marseilles, has telegraphed
to Toulon for the dispatch of the pow
erful tug Travailleur Immediately to
the scene. AS darkness fell this morn
ing the authorities were assembled on
shore and lifeboats were lying off
awaiting the first opportunity to ef-
