Gardiner Loses in the Eleventh
(By the Associated Press.)

New Britain, Conn, Jan. 1.-After re-
peatedly warning Gus Gardiner. of Phil
adelphia, referee John Willis gave Joe
Cans, of Boston, the decision. in the
eleventh round of bout scheduled for
twenty rounds before the National
Athletic Club today.
Cans was on the defensive from the
start, but Gardiner danced around the
ring from his opponent for five rounds
and showed no inclination to mix it up.
In the fifth round Cans succeeded in
landing several good blows on Gardiner
with telling effect In the sixth Gardiner
came back with the tactics which char
acteriZed the first few rounds of the bout
and relied on his footwork to escape
Cans. The referee repeatedly warned
Gardiner, who clinched at every oppor-
tunity, but with little effect In the
eleventh round Gardiner caught Cans
about the waist and threw him heavily
to the floor. Referee Willis immediate
ly stopped the bout and gave the decision
to Cans. Fifteen hundred people wit
messed the fight.

A SICKtN|NG FIGHT
Al Weinig's Face Beaten
Almost Into a Pulp.
O3ren Leaves Him in the Ring Blind and
HELPLESS. Cans Civ n The Decision
Over Gus Gardiner.
CBy the Associated Press.)

Buffalo, N. Y, Jan. LIT took JACK
OBrien twelve rounds to dispose of Al
Weinig before the International Athletic
Club at Fort Erie today. The Buffalo
man went down and out in the middle of
the twelfth after receiving terrific
right hand upper cut and shove which
banged his head against the floor and
made his arising within the ten seconds
an impossibility.
The contest was one sided all through.
Weinig did not land a score OF clean
blows throughout the twelve rounds,
while O'Bren with singing jabs, cutting
swings and stunning counters played on
the Buffalo man wherever and whenever
he pleased But Weinigs vitality and
well known powers of reciprocation and
ability to stand punishment enabled him
to stand on his feet and take all the
gruelling until the finishing punch.
O'Brien fought the fastest twelve
rounds ever seen before the Fort Erie
club. He was in action every second,
feinting, shifting, dancing in and out
and piling in the blows on the husky
"biker" and although he landed a suffi-
cient number of times on Weinig's jaw
to have won a half dozen fights, he
seemed to lack a blow powerful enough
TO knock him out. Weinig was knocked
down clean in the first round and was
hanging on the ropes in the second and
fourth rounds, but his strength held him
until O'Brien had literally cut his face to
ribbons. closed both eyes and wore him
down until he was unable to protect
himself or do damage to his opponent.
O'Brien did all the fighting, Weinig sell
dom attempting a lead. OBrien finished
without q scratch and Weinig was out.
The betting was at prohibitive odds in
OBriens favor, although much money
was won on the proposition of Weinig
staying ten rounds which he had backed
himself literally to do.

President Castro said to the cores

it will be because settlement forms no

Results of the Coal Famine.
CBy the associated Press

Baltimore, Md, Jan. 1.-The effect of
the coal famine on the four million people
of Maryland, the District of Columbia,
Virginia and West Virginia is told in
dispatches to tomorrow's Herald. Few
towns are supplied with anthracite, and
in many there is a shortage of all kinds
of fuel In the smaller towns the resi-
dents substitute wood for coal, but in the
larger this has not been possible. In
some entire counties nothing but wood is
used. At some points near the coal fields
such as Roanoke. coal is higher than at
points more distant from the mines. In
West Virginia, owing to the wide dis
tribution OF coal producing areas there
is not likely to be much distress. AL
though the industries are suffering, Wash
ington and Baltimore are getting along
with soft coal at advanced prices, but
Washington is no better off than many
of the smaller towns. The commerce of
both Baltimore and Norfolk is suffering
because of the shortage

LIFE SENTENCE FUR MURDER
The Man Who Received it Aided Funston in
the Capture of Aguinaldo
(By the Associated Press.)

Denver. Col, Jan. MANILA dis
patches received at the headquarters OF
Colorado, here say that Hilary Placido
has been sentenced to life Imprisonment
for murder Details of the crime are
lacking, but General Funston and other
officers here who knew the scout believe
that the crime was committed since
they left the island, as it does not seem
probable that Placido could have been
called to account for something done dur
ing the time ne was engaged as an ac-
tive participant in the revolution.
In speaking of Placido General Funston
said:
He was never my spy and the only
money he ever received from the United
States was for the part he took in the
capture of Aguinaldo. He fought against
the Spanish and then took up arms
against the United States. In 1899 he
was severely wounded being shot through
the lung. He recovered and again took
an active part in the war. The follow
ing year he surrendered at the same time
that General Garcia did. He was priS-
oner for about three months and then |
released him. He took the oath of al
legiance and often times of his own
volition gave me information regarding
the enemy. He was not a spy in the
sense of the word that he was in the
governments employ, nor did he ever go
into their lines for information for our
use
when / arranged the plan for the cap
ture of Aguinaldo | took Placido along.
He did not know the object of the expe-
dition until we were we'll under way. l
then explained my plan to him and he
agreed to help me. In order to carry
out the scheme he became the nominal
commander of the expedition as it was
necessary to make the natives believe
we Americans were prisoners. When we
reached the camp of Aguinaldo, Placido
rushed in and threw his former chief on
the floor of the hut and held him there
until we made him a prisoner. For his
part in this work he was paid by the
government"
