Joe Humphries, manager or Ierry NcGovern. received a wire yesterday from Jimmy Coffroth. the Frisco fight promoter. asking him If he would match Terry with Jimmy Britt. the fight to take place the lat. ter part of August or the middle of September.

OAKVlLLE HAPPENINGS

Oakville, without police protection of any kind and apparently without any public spirited citizens to get up in, arms and insist on the appoint ment of an officer to enforce the law here. is an ideal place for such scraps as were pulled off on Main street yesterday afternoon. The first en- tertainment for the natives was a one round bout between an Italian residing in the Beehive" at the trolley terminal and a fellow coun- tryman from the Italian colony near the Bunker Hill road. The trouble arose on account of the Beehive man, known as 'Curley," trespass- ing on land owned or leased by the fellow from Bunker Hill and refus- ing to move when ordered to by the chap occupying the farm until sev- eral shots were exchanged. This oc- cured over a week ago and the Bunker Hill man came around yes terday to have it out with Curley. Both men hammered each other for about ten minutes, quitting when Curley said he had enough. With nothing to prevent the use of wea- pons it is surprising that they didn't figure in the trouble. About o'clock a fellow somewhat under the influence of liquor came along Main street and buckled into the peanut man at the trolley terminal and was getting the better of the contest when the latter's brother appeared on the scene. Both jumped on the stranger, who would have been seri- ously injured but for the timely ar rival of John Mclean of Main street, who stopped the contest.
 The Oakville team lost the first game of the season in Litchfield yes- terday afternon in a hard fought bat tie with the second team of that place. The game lasted for twelve innings. Score 4 to 3.

DURANT IS HUsTLING.
Injury to Eddie Farley Makes Mat
 ters Serious.


 The injury to Farley's arm in New Haven yesterday will keep the star twirler out of the game for some time to come, but Manager Durant is making the best of the situation and is keeping the wires hot after a good pitcher and a good catcher. Farley was making name for him self and only last week Manager Burnham of Newark offered Durant the drafting price. $750, for Farley.
 Durant is negotiating with Hughes, catcher. in. Philadelphia, and expects him to arrive in day or two. He will relieve Thackara, who has been catching we'll, but who needs rest. Durant expects also to land another Philadelphia boy, who is said to be good pitcher, and car ries the name of Brown.
 Manager Bert Daily of Hartford is still on the hunt for players and had the nerve to ask Durant to sell him Nichols. The local manager would not think of such thing, as the vet eran has been playing fine ball and is one of the most popular players on the team. Wallace of Brooklyn would have been given trial to-day, but he eitched in Massachusetts yes terday and will not be used until Saturday.

THE PUGlLISTS.
ABE ATTELL
 | WHIPS NELL
The Battle Went Twenty Rounds
 But Neill Was a Sight Terry Asks Big Figures.

| Los Angeles, Cal, July 5.-Abe At tell, champion featherweight pugilist of America, yesterday got the decis- ion in the twentieth round over Frankie Neil, bantamweight cham pion, before the Pacific Athletic club. l Attell showed to great advantage 1 landing six blows to Neil's one. ! Neifs eye was closed early in the contest and his face battered black and blue, NeiL however, appeared to be stronger throughout the fight and his blows, when they landed, had force behind them. AttelPs clever ness in @ covering up and side-step- l ping his opponents vicious swings saved him repeatedly.
 The last two rounds were fought by both men with fierceness and Neil landed more blows in these two rounds than in nearly all the previ- ous eighteen. The men slugged at each others faces. The decision of Referee Eyton was popular. l Attell, while both eyes were slightly discolored, showed no se- were marks of the fight. The last two rounds were probably the equal of any ever fought for f1erceness and continued hammering. The men rushed to the center at the gong and with their heads on each others shoulders, fought and belabored each other about the ring, forgetful of science and everything. vainly at I tempting with all their force to knock each other out, while the spec tators cheered madly.
 ! Attell by the decision retains the i featherweight championship and re- ceives the $1,000 belt awarded by Manager McUarry to the winner, in addition to the winners share of the gate receipts
 Although to an expert Attell had the battle safe at almost all stages, yet the fighting was extremely even until the twelfth round. Then the tide of battle began to change and the speed and generalship of the champion told. Neil, fighting like the little wild demon he is, sailed in round after round, only to. be bat tered into-only a semblance of a human being by the stinging Jabs ana well pidCeu uppeiSutS ol nie agile foe. Attell, cool and calculat- ing, shot out his wonderful left straight and true, while the right was used in short, quick darts upward at his opponents chin.
 A crowd, second only to the Nel- son-Herrera fiasco crowd, gathered around the ring, which was pitched in the open air. Attell was installed a 10 to : favorite, but the betting was light. He entered the ring weighing 120 pounds, while Neil scaled 119.
 Attell had the advantage in height and reach, while Neil was built the stronger. Early in the battle Attell started flow of blood from Frankie's nose and also closed - his i right eye. Abe kept battering at the two bad points throughout the fight.
 It was one of the most vicious bat ties ever fought on the coast. Neith- CT man showen any inclination to shirk and there was not an idle mo- ment during the whole twenty rounds.
