AMERIcUs WON.
Cuban Wonder Got but One Fall and
Also a Broken Rib.

Cermania Maennerchor Hall, Baltimore.
was packed last night by the wrestling
match, and force of police was necessary
to keep the people out of the aisles. Many
who were anxious to see the contest be-
tween Gus Schoenlein (Americus) and Clar-
ence Bouldin. the Cuban Wonder. were UNI
able to get into the hall. The city authorl-
ties had decided that the gallery was I'M
safe and 1t was not permitted to be occu-
pied. Still the crowd was the largest that
has ever seen a wrestling bout at that hall
The stellar attraction was wrestling
bout in which the Cuban Wonder was TO
throw Americas three times in an hour.
The Cuban gained a fall in As minutes,
though he did not put Americas shoulders
down. He had the Baltimore boy in chan
Gerry with an arm and leg hold and was
furnishing his man. when Americas sig
nailed the referee, Harry JeffrieS, to award
the fall to his opponent
This ended the match, for the Cuban had
to quit. He could go no further In the
first five minutes of the bout Amer-cus
broke one of Bouldin's small ribs on the
left side The Cuban pluckily continued
the bout until he was awarded the fall.
Harvey Parker. the BTockton (Mass.)
champion, who is to meet Americas. tried
to make a speech shortly afterward, but
the crowd would not listen to him. The
Cuban was brought to the stage, and to
those near him the break in his rib was
easily Seen Inc croWu ulu NOT Dciiefo ~.
Many thought that as the Cuban had
thrown Americas but once in 40 minutes
he had decided he could not carry out his
contract, and that to gain two more falls
in Is minutes was so impossible to him that
he made an excuse to save his reputation.
physician who examined Bouidin set the
matter at rest He said the rib was broken,
and advised the Cuban to at once have
plaster cast put on.
The bout was a good one while 1t lasted.
The fall which the Cuban got was the first
to be marked against Americas since he
became wrestler 1t was good Judgment
on his part to grant the Cuban the fall. as
the hold was one from which he could not
get away. and was one of the kind which
hurts.
The fifteen hundred people present en-
joyed the match. as there was never a dull
moment in 1t.

VICTORY FOR CANS.
Fitzgerald Whipped in Hard Ten
Round Rattle

Joe Cans, the lightweight champion Of
the world. was given a very well merited
decision over Willie Fitzgerald at the end
of their ten-round bout before the Metro
politan Athletic Club, in the Light Guard
Armory, Detroit, last night. He knocked
Fitzgerald down four times forcing the
fighting the major portion Of the time and
landed the more effective and more power
flu, blows.
Fitzgerald had the better of only two
rounds-the fifth and ninth. In the fifth
his blows to Cans stomach checked ths
colored mans aggreSsiveness perceptibly
and slowed him. Early in the ninth round
Fitzgerald landed a terrific left swing on
Cans jaw and staggered the champion.
Cans however hung on and Fitzgerald,
stead of following up his advantage with
blows to the stomach. swung repeatedly for
Cans head and missed, enabling the col
ored man to recuperate. Again. In the last
half minute of this round. Fitzgerald land
ed a hard left swing on Cans head. but
the bell rang before he could follow 1T up
to any advantage
In all Of the other eight rounds Cans
showed a most decided superiority. He
knocked Fitzgerald down in the first round
with a short right swing on the jaw, In the
fourth with another punch on the jaw, In
the sixth with terrific swing to the same
place and again in the eighth with left
hand blow on the jaw.
lie kept up d constant ndHlIneIiilS VI tiiO
Brooklyn boys ribs also, and forced the
fighting at all times except in the fifth and
ninth rounds. Fitzgerald had the cham
pion very groggy in the ninth round after
he had landed a very hard left swing and
followed it up with another. Cans was
plainly distressed and clinched and hung
on at every opportunity.
Fitzgerald's seconds were crying to him
t. play for Cans body, but the Brooklyn
lad endeavored to reach the champion )
law again and repeatedly missed swings
and ran into clinches This was Fitzger-
AIDS one opportunity and he failed TO i'm
prove it by his fruitless attempts at the
champions head.
Cans was strong in the tenth and again
showed marked superiority
The battle was stated to be for the cham
pionship though it Is well known that
championship battles are not set for so
short a limit.
The betting was 10 to 8. The men met
at 135 pounds. which was believed to be
an easy weight for Fitzgerald to make and
vas supposed to be hard for the champion.

CREDIT TO BASE BALL.
Dave Fultz, the Great outaelder,
STUDYING Law

David Fultz, center fielder of the New
York Americans, is spending the winter in
Gotham. studying law. He Is a graduate
of Brown University, and Is a remarkable
young man in many ways. He believes in
keeping the Sabbath, and consequently his
contract exempts him from Sunday ball. He
never INDUCES in profanity never drinks
and believes in early retiring followed by
early rising. While in college he was
phenomenal athlete. being not only star
base ball player. but also one of the best
halfbacks the foot ball field. Last sea-
son he was unable to show New York ball
cranks his best base ball SKILL owing to a
lame knee. which handicapped him nearly
all the season, but he has entirely recov-
cred. and will begin the coming campaign
in tp-top shape. Fultz is a superb out
fielder. but his forte Is batting and base
running. expert judges pronouncing him
one of the fastest men in the profession.
When Fultz signed with the New York
Americans he received a big bonus and
salary amounting to something more than
1000. AS he continued to draw his pay
after 1t was impossible for him to leave
the bench, Fultz went to Treasurer Frank
Farrell of the club and said:
Mr. Farrell, l know that am Of no use
to you. and that 1t will be a long time be-
fore can get in the game. AS the club Is
up against many obstacles. 1 do not feel
that am acting fairly by dra wing my sal
airy, and am willing to take my release"
Mr. Fultz," replied Treasurer Farrell
there are few ball players of your caliber
want you to be with me. and assure you
that am not worrying about you Nature
has made it impossible for you to play your
best Just at present but you will get every
dollar due you just the same. You are a
credit to the profession"
How many base ball magnates would
have refrained from laying Fultz off for the
balance of the season without paw or from
releasing him outright? Fultz said the
other day that he had never been more
fairly treated, and that he would recipro-
cate as soon as he could put on uniform.

TO FIGHT FOR $4,000.
Corbett and Britt Guaranteed That
Sum by Colma Athletic Club.

The Colma Athletic Club of San Fran
cisco has secured the Young Corbett-Jimmy
Britt bout. and everything has been ar
ranged satisfactorily with the exception OF
the date of the contest. 1t Is probable
however. that the fight will take place dur
ing the first week In March.
The awarding of the fight to the Colma
A. C. was something of surprise to the
Frisco sporting world. The little pugilists
had been considering the offers of various
clubs for three days. the bids ranging from
80 to II per cent. The choice seemed to
lay between the Mechanics and Wood
ward pavilions. when along came the
Colma A. c. with the remarkable offer OF
70 per cent of the gate receipts, and the
boys lost no time in accepting 1t.
Judd Gibbs of the Colma Club caused q
genuine sensation when he made this offer,
and then backed 1t up by announcing that
his club would give guarantee of s$15, CO.
This guarantee was 5000 more than any
other club had offered and in the percen-
tage the advance was per cent.
To bind the guarantee. Mr.. Gibbs deposit
ed with Eddie Graney, the referee Of the
coming fight. a check for $1,000. A check
