American.
Britt Beat White,

San Francisco.-James E. Britt, an
American, defeated Jabez White, an
Englishman, and is now the light
weight champion of the world.
With 20 seconds to go, Britt hook
ed the Englishman with a left to the
jaw, and the foreigner went to the
mat, where he lay fiat on his back
for eight seconds. He staggered to
his feet, but was powerless to defend
himself, and Britt swung right and
left on his jaw. The referee, to save
the plucky Englishman from needless
punishment, stopped the contest. al
though White was still on his feet
leaning up against the ropes in
helpless condition. White was carried
to his corner and in a few minutes re-
yiyed sufficiently to make a little
speech, in which he said
81 fought the best | know how. I
received fair play, but Britt is evil
IDENTIFY the better man"
Britt's victory was, of course, loud
ly acclaimed by the people of his
home town, but White, though a de-
teated man was cheered just as vOcif-
erously for the magnificent fight he
made. All through the battle White
showed that he was entitled to com
pete for championship honors. He
is clever boxer, an experienced ring
general and mas a cool head that car
ried him out of difficulty many times.
He seemed to lack. however, one re-
quisite for a champiOn-a knockout
blow. He landed on Britt's jaw many
time with both right and left, but
apparently did not hurt the little San
Francisco bulldog.
In the 18th round it looked as if
White had a chance He landed a
vicious straight right on Britt's jaw,
and as the latter was off his balance
he went to the floor and rolled under
the ropes. He was not hurt. however.
and came back fighting faster than
ever. Britt forced matters all through
the fight. He paid particular atten-
ton to Whites stomach, occasionally
swinging for the jaw, but the English
mans cleverness enabled him to block
those wicked punches. During the lat.
ter part of the fight Britt used only
his left, and persistent care of his
right led the spectators to fear that
he had damaged it. But his right
was in good order and he turned ii
into use in the 10Th round. when he
swung for Whites stomach and jaw
Britt paid a tribute to White by
saying he is the cleverest boxer in
the world. "He stalled and blocked
and kept me away in manner that
was never before done" said the cham
pion. Had he come at me and led
could have finished him sooner, as
he would have left more openings"
The fight was by long odds the clev
crest exhibition that has been giver
in recent years in San Francisco
Britt demonstrated what his admirers
have always claimed, that although
he is not a snowy boxer, he is a hare

mont acoutred an interest in these roads that it
amounted to only IS per cent. and that the con-
trolling interest of 81 per cent was in the hands
NJ Speyer & Co. of New-York. That report was
erroneous as it is learned on unquestfoned
authority that the governments interest
amounts TO 81 per cent the remainder being
held by Speyer & Co
II was also understood at the time that Speyer
& Co would dictate the management OF the
road It did so for short time. Then its men
were gradually displaced by others chosen by
