 The Hartford Courant thought the / game last night was of some conse- querce, for it was placed on the first page under big scare heads and. talk about embellishments, well, the sport ing editor certainly did cut loose, and here is how he did it:
 In addition to the regular patrons of the game about 900 newsboys saw the polo contest last night and they will not have to go to Cincinnati to see the Jeffries- -Ruhlin go. They saw just as good last night. It was a rOugh-hOuSe and hammer and tongs from the sound of the gong and the referee did his duty. The spectators were given q feeble imitation of the game as it is played in Waterbury. There the fans take a hand in the scraps themselves and the air is musical with the whir- ring of cans thrown over the surface. The fans there also control the game and the referee looks around to feel the pulse before giving q decision. Hartford audiences are better behaved and outside of the players the only fisticuffs were those indulged in by the newSboyS.
 Captain Cotter's nerves are well covered with adipose tissue and as his 1, .N1" n, r1Nr, one never looks to see him in temper But the old man was aroused last night and he acquitted himself so we'll that he had Jean squealing like q rat i'll q corner It will be remembered that at the last game in Waterbury -Doherty was put out of the game at the behest of the crowd because he was foolish enough to defend himself. As he was Aon his own Stone-pit last night he buckled, into Griffin when attacked. Up rushed Jean and he tried to put the strangle hold on the halfDack. Jean had no business in the miXup and the referee should have fined him a months salary for what he did. The referee parted the men and called fouls.
 Jean took occasion later to push Lewis and Wodtke about when he had chance and he was so successful with Lewis that he tackled the old warrior. that is. T. B. Cotter The Hartford captain took the big Water bury center and threw him half way over the railing. Then he gently leaned over him until the Canadians bones could be heard cracking. Jean could not move and he finally begged for mercy. After that he kept out o< E14{ "a % the local captain resorts to force in an affair of this kind as he acts on the principle that there are more ways of killing dog than choking him with butter
 In the last inning Jean ran full into one of Cotter's drives and the game was delayed until he could get his -"bellows" working. This was retri button indeed. Cotter and Russell rolled over each other once. Holder ness committed many fouls that were not seen and there were q number of impromptu set-tO'S that pleased the I1ewsboys. Toward the end of the game some of the boys in the front row had fight among themselves This was quelled by the police.
 Referee Leahy called the fouls as fast as he saw them and his work was far superior to the exhibition usually given by Lush. Hartford cas- fly outplayed Waterbury as far as gen. eral work went. The playing of Hol- derness kept the Hartford score down as many times Wodtke took the ball down the rink and was blocked by the halfback. Doherty did as good work for his side. Outside of the fighting the game was interesting and excite ment was up to high point.
