WALCoTT's FIRST DEFEAT.
Young Peter Jackson Beat Champion
in Fourth Round.

Joe W&lcott, welterweight champion of
the world, quit in the fourth round Of his
contest with Young Peter Jackson before
the Eureka Athletic Club of Baltimore last
night 1t appeared that he was knocked out
by slashing right to the stomach. but
some Of the sports think he simply lay
down IN order to give Jackson the benefit of
a decision over him for use in his early pro-
fessional visit to England.
When the men came to the center of the
ring, Jackson assumed crouching position.
Walcott reached him or the head several
times, but Jackson never finched. Jackson
took advantage Of the clinching game and
every tune reached Walcott's stomach with
short-arln jolts. There was nothing Of in
terest in the first round. In the second
round Jackson started to clinch and Wal
cIinches Jackson managed to deliver some
telling stomach blows In return, he took
some hard rights and one terrific left to the
neck, but he simply grinned.
Walcott at this time complained to the
referee about Jacksons hitting in clinches,
but the referee waived him off. Jackson
sent in right to the stomach that made
Joe vince. This round was full of excite
ment. both men fighting hard. Walcott kept
protesting about JacksOns striking him in
clinches, but to no avail. Jackson reached
the jaw with hard left in the early part
of the fourth and Walcott came back with
a right to the jaw that made Mr.. Jackson
see stars. Two minutes later Jackson
swung his right into Walcotts exposed
stomach and he went epown and was count
ed out for the first time in his long career.
The battle was not for the Welterwefght
championship the men fighting at catch
weights.

Wild's Suicide Stirs Army Circle.

A dispatch from San Francisco last night
says: The suicide of Capt. Frederick 8.
Wild. commissary officer Of the 18th United
States Infantry. at Angel Island, has caus-
ed a sensation in army circles. A woman
was the cause OF his death. When Capt.
Wild came home from the Philippines two
years ago he brought with him $4,000.
Shortly after his arrival here he became
acquainted with Mrs. Evelyn Pittman.
From that time until now she has resided in
a luxurious fiat, with every accessory that
elegance and. refinement could suggest
Several months ago the captain COM
menced to feel that he could not keep up
the strain, and often in the presence of his
friends was wont to assert that without
money man should not live.
Capt. Wild was native of New York
state forty-one years of age and I'M
married He entered the army as private
soldier in 1887 and ten years later he was
appointed to the position of first lieutenant.
In 1893 he was made a captain and was
sent to the Philippines with the 18th Infan-
try. He returned here about two years
ago and later was assigned to duty as regi
mental commissary at Angel Island. Among
the army folk he was a popular officer.

III this round was lucky blunder that

with Was hington and the incident really de-
cided the game
Stahl started the bother when, with one
out, he shot the ball against the left field
fence for two bases Clarke singled to
center, and Stahl came home on the hit.
Then Drill chopped ball toward the pitch
er's box. Just as Stovall reached for the
ball it took a false bound, and before he
could recover and get to it Drill was safe
at first. Jacobsen got walk. Cassidy du-
plicated Stahl's double, scoring two more
runs. The next two plays furnished outs.

he was equally kind to Lowe. He was get

Crawford caught one fair on the nose.
Donovan came racing in. grabbed 1t off the

Then followed the third double play, be-

With this chance gone, hope fled. In the
ninth Robinson. who replaced Killian was
hit and Leary got pass, with two
gone, but Patten was there and handed
three strikes over on Barrett. Score:

GRAVESEND RACES.
African6er Soundly Beaten by Audi

The racing at Gravesend yesterday was
once more a source of profit to the book
makers. as four favorites, backed with con-
fidence were unable to deliver the goods.
The track had dried out under the rays of

spots. More than 1900 persons turned out,
and the speculation all the afternoon was
of lively nature.

BIG ADVANCE SALE.
Heavy Demand for Seats for Jeffries-
Munroe Fight.

The advance sale of seats for the Jeffries-
Munroe contest began in San Francisco
yesterday.
There was a heavy demand. despite a re-
port from Hardin Springs that Jeffries was
suffering severely from a swollen knee,
which might cause postponement of the
fight.
Jeffries is putting in more ticks at Har-
bin Springs His gym work is particularly
strenuous. He starts in with wrist ma
chine and pulley weights, which serve to
warm him up as preliminary gallop does

Some fifty-yard sprinting follows the rope,
and then the champion takes a plunge and

Yesterday the champion said he would
work again in the gym before dinner time,
but altered his plan and went for a six
mile jog on the road instead. Last night
he participated in a ball game, and before
retiring for good tossed the medicine ball

Schaefer, on the other hand, was more
confident and played with bulldog perse-

wizard when the game was over.
It's anybodys match now. For the final
game SCbaefer is, rather more favored than
