An effort was made during a wind
storm to burn up w. Liebrecht and
wife, who live on the second floor Of

ed TIE house where the girl lived with
her mother, in order to separate the
couple. Letters in German were tack
ed on trees for the next few days, say

five rounds of fighting at the National
Sporting club last night in a contest
held in the coronation sporting tOurna-
nlent The bout was hot, exciting and
clever Martin showed greater physical
power and a gressiveness than did the
Bostonian, and gradually wore him
down When hard pressed Ferguson be-
came reckless, and early in the fifth
round he was brought down with a
right hook on the point Of the jaw. On
rising Ferguson was groggy but he
fought with commendable gameness. He
was severely dealt with however. being
foored three times more. and he was
then so weak to justify the referee In
stopping the bout, deciding in Martina
favor.

punching to finish him and Rubin was
too tired to do it. Time after time the

and his left on his jaw, but without at
tanning the desired end. Sharkey rolled
all over the ring and was down when
the bell sounded and Ruhlin's seconds
claimed the fight The referee declined
to allow their claim. explaining that
Sharkey was only knocked down eight
seconds before the end of the round.
Sharkey's seconds however, threw up

SHARKEY KNOCKED OUT.
Lost in a London Battle With
Gus Rubin.

London. June 26.2Gus Rubin of Ak
ron, O.. defeated Tom Sharkey of New
York in the eleventh round before the
National Sporting club last night. The
fight was held in connection with the
coronation sporting tournament.
Sharkey started in a slight faVorite
al % to 20 Both fighters were in splen-
did condition. Sharkey's seconds were
Tommy Ryan, Bob Sharkey and Spike
Sullivan, While Rubin was seconded
by his brother. Billy Madden and Jem
Mack.
Adopting forcing tactics, Sharkey held
his own in the first three rounds. al
though Rubin always managed to miss
Sharkey's lightning left whenever there
was any force in it. In the fourth
round Sharkey was cautioned a second
time for holding, and although plueky,
he appeared to be in trouble. Rubin
showed great science and GOODNESS. The
fighting continued at a severe pace
At the opening of the fifth round Ruiz
lin sent his right and left to Sharkey s
jaw and neck, and the latter was eau
tined for hitting low. Rubin was good
on his feet and maintained a splendid
defense, while Sharkey was the receiver
general. Both men were again caution
/. ed for holding. Sharkey's left eye was
cut, perhaps by Ruhlins elbow, and 1t
soon filled out At the close of the round
both men were glad to rest.
Round 6-Sharkey looked refreshed,
Ruhlin's long reach made it difficult for
Sharl5ey to get close to his opponent
and he relied upon swinging his left,
which he got home, shaking Rubin up
Sharkey's left, however, began to lack
force and the referee had to tell him to
close his glove. Rubin was scoring
rapidly, getting both hands home, but
Sharkey was hard to beat and took his
punishment well. He had a bit the best
of the round.
Round Rubin, working hard. had
his opponent very tired The excite
ment ran high and it was evident that
only knock out could save Sharkey
from defeat.
Round 8-Sharkey tried hopelessly to
bring this off, but there was not
| enough force in the swing of his left
and Rubin, taking matters easily, was
well in front.
Round developed much clinching
and the referee seriously cautioned
Sharkey. Rubin. however, was equal
ly guilty and roughed a good deal, but
escaped the referees caution It was
a hard round and resulted in Rubin 5
favor.
The tenth round started fast and fur
ious, Sharkey putting a splendid right
on the mark. Rubin made the most OF
the round but Sharkey was not to be
denied and fought on g&mely, while
Rubin wisely kept out of danger.
At the opening of round II both were
| full of fight, and the exchanges were
