the second ronnd of what was to have
been 20. round 70. .-....
Both men appeared in good condition
when they entered the ring. the ''Kid"
having the better Of the situation in
weigh, and height. The Mexican was \
hot favorite in the betting, and his
backers could secure money only on toe
proposition that he would not knock out
the kid" in 10 rounds. On this basis
much money changed hands,.
James Weaver WAS referee and the
hont was under straight Marquis of
Queensbnry rules.
In the first round, the Mexican forced
the fighting and drove several stiff let's
to the "Kid's" head, the latter being I'M
able to guard against them. For the
first half Of the round it looked as il
tho '.Kid" would be put out in that
round. but he galRelv recovere and in
the second half attempted to reach the
which were cleverty. blocked and had no
effect. Tie round was decidedly in fl.
vor OF the Mexican, but at its close the
hackers Of the kid" believed he could
stand six or even eight rounds.
When the gong sounded for the sec.
ond round, the Mexican walled in and I,
after an exchange Of blows. in which
tho Kit" got decidedly the wort Of
tile argument, straight left to the cad
put the "Kid" down and he took the
count, rising rs the referee counted 10.
He came up decidedly Rroggy. and again
the Mextan waded in. The kid"
made weak attempts at defense. but the
Mexican hit him At will, and with ter
rifle right to the face, he put the kid"
down and out The kid" WAS bleeding
profusely aud remained unconscious for
several minutes.
After the decision. the Mexican SAID
that the "Wisconsin Kid" was in u c!nss
superior to kid" Oxlesby, whom the
Mexican defeated last week in Butte.
Herrera said that thu kid" took ter.
rife punishment in the FIRST round and
WAS the first man he had met whom he
had failed 10 put our with one of the
blows he landed in that ronnd.
Herrera and his manager, Biddy
Bishop. will leave in the morning for
Great Falls, where the Mexican will
meet Jack Madden Thursday night
Herrera is in spleniia condition and If
confident he will put Madden out III
