a thousand spectators witnessed the box
ing bout between Hugh McPadden. OF
New York, and Austin Rice. Of this city

and went the limit, Rice being awarded
the decision by Referee Pollock.
Itewas a slow exhibition. for the first
half neither of the boys apparently wish
ing to mix up matters, but the battle
warmed up on the final rounds.
McPadden was evidently groggy no less
than twice during the latter half. but
managed to worry through to the bell and
cleverly saved himself from punishment.
The nineteenth round found both boxers
in good condition, but the twentieth near
y proved a Waterloo for McPadden.
Rice fought like a demon in this round

AMERICAN CLANS TO
GATHER IN CLEVELAND
Ban johnson and President
Fred Postal Depart.

Fight-Hope Through Legal Means
to Play Lajoie.

President Ban Johnson, of the Ameri-
can League. and President Fred Postal,
OF the Washington Baseball Club. left
this city last night for Cleveland. where
meeting OF the American League mag
mates will be held today The gathering
is result of the finding of the Penn
sylvania court In the Lajoie case, and ii
is thought that some important moves will
result from the conference.
Yesterday afternoon President Johnson
arrived from Baltimore. and saw the SEN
ators administer the Athletics a sound
trouncing. Aitvr the game the American
League autocrat, President Postal. Mana
ger Tom Lotus, aud Mr.. Wilton J. Lam
bert. attorney for the local club, held
long consultation. Just what was de-
cided upon was not given out. although
1t is known that they discussed the ad-
visibility of playing the four ex-Quakers
in Philadelphia.
An Appeal Ready.
President johnson refused to even d.
vulge what matters would be taken under
consideration at the meeting in Cleveland.
He said, however. in connection with the
Laioie case. that an appeal had been
made and that 1t would be argued today.
Should the case again go before the
supreme court of Pennsylvania. it is said
while it is pending the American League
people can give bond and continue to
play Laioic, Bernhard, and Fraser. This
will be decided advantage to the Ath-
letics, as at present Connie Mack has but
three available pitchers.
Before leaving town last night Presl-
dent Postal remarked that as things look
ed now. Delehanty, Wolverton. Orth. and
Townsend will be taken to Philadelphia
with the team, and. in Postals words,
Colonel Rogers can then do his worst"
Will Fight It Out.
Late yesterday afternoon Manager Con-
ME Mack. of the Philadelphia club ar
rived in Washington. He had little to
say regarding the Lajoie matter, with
the exception that the American people
would fight the decision to the last ditch
1t was rumored yesterday that Col.
John /. Rogers. OF the Phillie Nationals,
was in the National Capital. but a care
