New Bedford. March 15.-Martin Candle
OF Fall River won his fight with Fred
Bryson of Waltham last night before the
Warren Athletic club members in short
order. The bout did not last one fun
round. Bryson looked At and he started
out with a show OF form that appeared
promising. But Canole stopped his csper-
tngs quickly with a couple OF blows TO
Bryson's head that surprised the Wal
than man. Then Canoe delivered one
short-arm punch with his vicious left and
counted on Bryson's stomach and caused
him to hold on for chance TO get his
breath. Canole saw his advantage and
he quickly dealt a left hook that landed
OH the right side OF Bryson's stomach.
This caused him to sit down and try to
catch his breath. Before he got IL, ten
second had elapsed and Canole was de-
clared a winner. Many OF the audience
OF 1000 hooted and hissed. and the i'm
preston prevailed that Bryson quit.
The best bout OF the evening was the
meeting OF Albert belmont OF Medford
and Lem Macarthur OF Maiden. Macarthur
was a trife heavier and he had al onger
reach. although belmont was faster and

biting more effectively. In the fourth
round belmont gained an advantage
early, and two or three times IL looked
as IL Macarthur was going, but he stayed
10 the finish. The bell had harry sounded
at the beginning OF the nth when Del

Arthur left punch followed IL, and
then right uppercut sent Macarthur TO
his knees for the full count.

Ashley OF Fall River and Comes. a Cape
Cod Indian. who has gained reputation

made a regular punching bag out OF his
opponent. Comes took lot OF punish
