The condition Of Bill Hoy, who
tSilled Henry S. Putegnat in an al
terrstion at Harrington yesterday,
and was himself wounded in the
hand and side, seems TO be more
serious than was at first thought.
The wound in the side was probed
by DIR. Layton yesterday, and the
bullet removed from near the spine
where it had lodged. II is not yet
known whether the bullet injured
the spinal cord, and it can not be
positively stated what the result
will be.
In conversation with A. I. Vine
yard. of the Blue Point Fish COM
pany at Point Isabel, THE HERALD
man learns the fish business is
somewhat hampered by the scar
city of fishermen. The FISH are
there in plenty, and only need some
BODY to catch them. The ship
merits from Isabel compare very
favorably with Corpus Christi,
and could be much increased II
fishermen were obtainable. The
demaud is greater than can be sup
piled, Mr.. Vineyard says. With
cheap labor and the great abund-
ance of fish that industry bids fair
TO become quite an item of revenue
at Point Isabel.

THE SPONGE TO PREVENT A
KNOCKOUT.
is NOT in 1T WITH THE DANE
NELSON DEMONSTRATED su.
PERIoRITY IN ALL DEPART
MENTs or GAME.

San Francisco, March 2. Battling
Nelson of Chicago made Younk Cor
bett of Denver appear the poorest
tyro at the fighting game last night
when he practically knocked him out
in the middle of the ninth round. In
order to save their man complete
knockout the seconds threw up the
sponge. The man who twice met
Terry McGovern was not in 1T with
the young Dane at any stage Of the
game. In the early part of the fight
on several occasions he Strengthened
Nelson up with rights and lefts on the
jaw, but when 1t came to following up
his advantage his swings were wild.
He seemed to be over-anxious, while
Nelson at all times was cool and
confident.
The seventh round. when it APP
peared as IL Corbett were practically
gone, he showed flash of his old-time
speed and landed several severe
punches on Nelson's ribs and jaw.
1t Was Only Squirt,
however, and Young Corbett soon
lapsed into his semi-groggy condition
which lasted until the end of the fight.
Nelson's plan of battle was TO force
Corbett around the ring, keeping
close to him all the time. Whenever
Corbett missed swing Nelson was
there with return which generally
landed. From the fifth round on Mel
son kept Corbett on the ropes and
| landed at will. Corbett in some way
managed to protect himself from a
knockout blow until the middle of the
ninth round. Then in a rally Nelson
swung his right over the jaw and Cor
| bett went down on his back. He re-
NAMED down and then stood up
against the ropes with his hands low
cred, unable to protect himself. Mel
son partly toppled him over with a
swing on the jaw, but before Corbett
was fairly on the mat his seconds
Threw Up the Sponge.
The round lasted two minutes and
thirty-five seconds, In the eighth
round Nelson had Corbett against the
ropes and the Denver man claimed a
foul and lowered his hands. No foul
was apparent and the referee did not
allow it, Nelson demonstrated that
he is Corbett's superior in speed, ac-
curacy of aim, ability to take punish
ment, and stiff punches.
After the fight was over Corbett had
very little to say. He had no excuses
to offer. Nelson, of course. was very
happy that his next effort would be to
obtain fight with Britt, who has
once defeated him. The fight last
night was heavily played by the bet
ting element. The odds were 10 to 5
and were easily snapped at by Cor
belts admirers, but there was plenty
of Nelson money in sight and all bets
offered were taken
