NELSON WHIPS
 YOUNG CORBETT
The Greatest Fight of the Little Men That Has Taken Place in Recent Years, and it Was all Cne Way From the Start.

San Francisco, Nov. 29-In the greatest fight ever witnessed between little men in years, Battling Nelson, of Chicago, took from young Corbett, of Denver, the fight in the tenth round tonight. From the tap of the first gong until Corbett's seconds threw up sponge. Nelson was the master of the situation at every stage of the game. His fighting was a revelation and the most brilliant ever witnessed Tn the ring here. For the last three rounds Corbett was as helpless as a babe, wobbling around, groggy but gamey. until his seconds threw up the sponge. Nelson is now in line to meet Britt, the champion of his class. Although tonight's fight was not championship affair, it was witnessed by a great crowd and interest in it was second only to that which marked the meeting of Britt and Cans last month. The men were cautious in the first round, but in the second Nelson forced the fighting and never let up after that, forcing Corbett all the time and pun lshing him terribly.

of the occasion. The announcement
 that the chef executive would visit
 the exposition drew a tremendous
 crowd and to guard him from possible
 danger soldiers, police, and secret service men abounded but they had comparatively little to do in preserv-
 ing order. Sentiment seemed to be
 unanimous in the minds of the thou sands of spectators that the president
 was guest of each and each did his
 best to preserve order. The conse- quence was that those in authority
 had only to design their wishes and
 instantly the crowds parted, the pas sage way was cleared and hindrances so quickly removed that every moment of the presidents time might be oceu- pied in viewing the exposition.
 ''This is marvellous" the president said, 'It isSbeyond description and exceeds my fondest expectations. I have had tue best time l have ever had in my life and I have seen more than l ever expected to see in one days time" From 10 in the forenoon until in the evening the distinguish ed visitors, following the arranged schedule, hurried from one building to another and from one part of the ground to another and over looking nothing of interest. From the start to the end of the tour Mrs. Roosevelt and Miss Alice accompanied the presi- dent and fatigue was forgotten in en- jOyment of the day. The first speech was made in the French pavilion in response to a welcome accorded by Commissioner Gerald. The president proposed toast to President Loubet and to the French nation, and cham pagne was slipped in the corner in honor to the toast and then the party hurried to other national pavilions, completing the inspection soon after midday, and lunch was served in the west pavilion. This occPuied an hour and was purely informal. President Fracnis proposed the health of Mrs. Roosevelt and guests were ou their feet immediately and merrily clinked glasses as they drank to Mrs. Roose- welt who, similng, bowed her appre- citation. A hurried visit was made to the American building and thence to the Roosevelt cabin which sheltered the president in former days on his ranch in Wyoming. The rest of the day was spent in the Philippine reser- vation, where an hour and half was spent inspecting exhibits. Several presents were given the president by the Filipinos in the Moro village, where Datto tacunda presented the president with a big knife, ssying through an interrerter, "I give you my pira, which has been my indiVid- ual weapon, and with which I have killed three enemies. There will be no more fighting in my country and have no Tore use for my pira. I will give to nobody but you." The presi dent accepted the knife and expressed that the war was at an end. With Mrs. Roosevelt and Miss Alice tugging at his side, the presi- dent hurried from place to place, stopping only long enough to get a general idea of the exhibits. The party entered carriages and drove to machinery hall, where the last sight seeing was indulged In.

During the snowstorm at mid day on the 2Sth the Japanese tried to outfank the Russians right, but the rifles and four guns forced them to re- tire. The Russians losses are small. On November 27th Russian scouts cap tured the Nangentze village and held it for twenty minutes while the sap pers blew up large storehouse which had served for fortress and from which the Japanese sniped the Russian outpOsts.
