Goldfeld, New, Sept. 4.-Joe Cans,
the Baltimore negro prize fighter, sue
cessfully defended his lightweight
championship title from the terrific at
tack of Battling Nelson here, winning
from the Dane, to the great delight of
his thousands of hackers, in the forty
second round on a fragrant foul by Mel
son.
A bowling, screaming mob of 10000
people, among whom were many wom-
en-, witnessed the contest and at its
conclusion went wild with excitement
Such scenes were never before wit
messed at a prize fight Men and wom-
en- seemed to go crazy for the time and
did all sorts of foolish things.
The fight, on account of the known
dislike of the boxers for one another,
drew great house The 10000 peo-
pie who came into the arena paid
$4,000 for sight of the lightweights
in battle.
