Graney had rendered his decision.
The result was tremendous surprise to
the eastern men who had picked Corbett to
win inside of twelve rounds. Young Cor

fight. He wagered considerable money on
his ability to knock out the San Francisco
fighter in short order.
1t was a remarkable fight Early IN the
battle Britt proved conclusively that he was
the aster of the situation.
Young Corbett vainly endeavored to rat

an incessant stream of talk. But Britt
paid no attention to him and attended
strictly to business.
The two youngsters will meet later in
another twenty-rOund battle.

the ring. He was clad in a blue and white

games
The Corcorans went in with rush, and
by fine passing soon scored the first goal
This they kept up, and through the inabil-

they scored several more goals before the
first half ended. The Urells resorted to
making long throws for their goals when
they found that they could not gain by
passing the ball.
The feature of the game was the excel

five of the ten goals for his team. Handi-

vociferous mo" from both sides of the
House. A motion by Mr.. Overstreet that
all debate close with a recommendation
that the bill pass was carried almost
unanimously, at which there was loud ap-
plause. As Speaker Cannon assumed the
chair he warmly congratulated Mr.. Boutell,
who had acted as presiding officer through
out the stormy discussion of the measure.
At this the House again broke into ap-
plause.
The bill was about to be put on its
passage when Mr.. Moon (Tenn.) moved

of Kansas City. The yeas and nays were
ordered on this motion.
