Los Angeles, Cal, March 10.-Jack lTw1n)
Sullivan Of Boston and Hugo Kelly Of Chicago
fought twenty fierce rounds to a draw here last
night, but the decision was protested bya!
Ryan, Kelly's manager. 1t is the general opin-
ion that Kelly should have been awarded the
decision. In every round Kelly carried the fight
to Sullivan and until the fifteenth round he
had clean lead over Sullivan and had admin
tstered severe punishment and landed five times
as many effective blows. Kelly also showed
superior generalship and outfought Sullivan at
the latter's own game of give and take.
In the fourth round Kelly landed a, hard right
to the nose and Sullivan slipped to the moor:
His nose began to bleed profusely, and this
bothered him greatly. In attempting to wipe
the blood away Sullivan smeared it in his eyes
and was bewildered turnout the next succeeding
four rounds.
In the fourteenth round Kelly slipped over a
hard right to the jaw andssent Sullivan to the
floor for the count Of eight.
During the remainder. of the round Sullivan
was forced to clinch and hold on to avoid pun
ishment. Frequently dhring the fight Kelly
| would land right to jaw and follow quickly
with left to head, and in several instances had
the Boston boy In a bad way.

that the organization is trying to
railroad report through and that Pres
ident Murray is resorting to gag"

shock your nerves more to hear report
read this afternoon than after holi-
days" Caudell replied: 1T will shock
my nerves any time and your nerves
will be shocked when you hear from
your people. You are a clever fellow
but you are going too fast" Rose

the Usage nation Indian reservation

Northwestern and southwestern
counties in Oklahoma we're cut right
and left. The report of the commit
tee was not read to the convention
and went over under the rules until
today, when a struggle will come over
its adoption. There was no minority
report.
The report of the committee relates
solely to county boundaries, the loca
tion of county seats having been dod-
ged as more dangerous than dynamite.
1t is probable that the location of
county seats will be brought before
the conventionIand an effort made to
have a special committee appointed
for this purpose. G. N. Haskell de-
clares that the convention would |
make a bad blHnder ia touching the
county seat question.

generally felt that Chelsea's loss will

There is some bewilderment at the
name Of the county, no one seeming to
know just why it was chosen. The
general opinion, however, Is that it
was named for the Craig family, one
Of the old-time prominent families Of
the Cherokee nation, and represented
now by Grandville Craig, who lives
west Of Bluejacket.
1t is said that Craig county owes it's
