WILL BE GREAT FIGHT.

Battling Nelson and Joe Cans are matched to fight forty-flve rounds at Colma this Fall at the weight Nelson kfinx ItBHIUnnetS ever Etnue 1sAns started hurling challenges at the Dane. Nelson is now in Yellowstone Park, hundred miles from a telegraph of flee. With his manager. Billy Nolan, he is taking a much needed vacation, and intends to stay fin his retreat for the next two weeks.
 fight Dave Holly, the Philadelphia welterweight, who recently defeated Rufe Turner. Holly Is dangerous customer. but it is 3 to 1 shot that Cans will win. Then he win stay on the Coast and prepare for the Nel- son fight.
 While the arraingements have not been given to the public as yet if can be stated on the highest authority that Jimmy Coffroth will have the handling of the affair. and the great arena 1t Colma. in which Britt went down before the battling Dane, will be the scene of the fight Arrange ment have already been made for a iNthSt TUT WhiNll SOnlotu HIS partners are to pay $2.00o.
 The men will fight at 133 pounds ringside. This is Nelson's favorite weight. while Cans has not gone this low in years. However. he will do the weight without question. as his one ambition for the past eighteen months has been to get Nelson into a ring with him.
 The affair will prove the biggest betting proposition fin years. and the money laid on the Nelson and Britt | fight will be only a plker's wager alongside of what will be on the Dane and the great negro. San Francisco will be practically the headquarters of the two men. and Al Herford. who Is still managing Cans. Is quoted as saying that he will go broke on the negro's chances of whipping Nolan's champion.

SWANSON woH HATCH.
Defeated Italian Wrestler in Torring-
 tnn

Torrington, July 23.-Alex Swan son defeated Siro Italiano. the Italian mat artist, at the Union theater Sat- urday night, the match continuing scarcely half hour. After the Swede had secured the first fall in thirty minutes on a half-Nelson and bar hold, the wrestlers again appeared on the mat only to have the Italian quit after several minutes. He com- plained that his stomach had gone back on him. due to drinking cold water after the first fall had been de- cided. To satisfy the good-sized audi ence in attendance the management put on a fifteen-minute exhibition bout between Harry Drinkwater of Waterbury and Swanson. In the pre- liminary bout Louis Montague of TorringtOn, secured two straight falls in ten and seven minutes respective ly, from his opponent, Ramio Rolla of Brooklyn, N. Y. George Decker officiated as referee.

HEARD DINNER HORN.

Tim McGrath. who has trained many fighters. including Jack Nun roe. was recently telling some friends in San Francisco that he has his eye on a new heavyweight. when he was interrupted with the remark. What, another Jack Munroe?"
 What was the matter with Nun roe?" rejoined Tim, pretending his feelings were hurt. Wasn't he a good man?"
 Suppose he made a good fight with Jeffries?" observed one sport, taking Tim seriously.
 Now, will tell you something about that fight" continued Me- Grath, with a faint semblance of a smile stealing over his face. that perhaps you don't know. That was a luke punch that licked Munroe. Yes. sir. lucky punch. Some one blew a dinner horn at the ringside just as Jack was getting ready to fight. he recognized the familiar sound. and as he turned to look in the direction from which 1t came Jeff banged him on the jaw. Now, wasn't that lucky vfn7"

THE PUGILlST
PRIVATE FIGHT
 ON A BARGE
Andy MeCarry Put Out By Will Hosey in Fourth Round
 Nelson and Cans Matched.

New York, July 23.-Two hun dred enthusiastic lovers of fight ing started out from wharf near the Battery yesterday in an ex- cursion barge and saw a prizefight between Amby McGarry and Willie Hosey, two lightweight pugilists, on the deck of the vessel after it had sailed up the Hudson as far as Ton kers.
 This appears to be one of series of barge fights that are to be held in the same way. McGarry and HOsey were matched secretly two weeks ago and the details of the match only leaked out few days before the event. Each side put up $500, the winner to take the entire sum; in | cluding the gate receipts.
 The excursion got away from New York around II a. III. The boys had weighed in for the fight before leaving New York. When the barge had been t0wed as far as Yonkers the tug pull ed alongside and the ring was laid out in the middle of the upper deck. Just about that time the two fighters heard that their money was not sure and refused to go into the ring. \ A collection was taken up among the crowd and $250 was raised as a | purse.
 The first three rounds were fiercely fought each of the fighters trying to l get an advantage.
 The fourth session was the rough l house affair. Hosey started left l jab and landed it, following with a light left to the face McGarry hook ed a left to the jaw. Then Hosey started an uppercut with his right that found resting place on McGar- rvs leg. Amby complained, but quick as flash Hosey shot the right upward to the jaw.
 McGarry attempted to stall, while his seconds loudly called the attention l of the referee to the foul blow. Cant. well refused to recognize them and l ordered the men to continue.
 They were now in cIinch. Pull ing his left hand free. Hosey shot il downward for the pit of McGarry's stomach. The blow went low and was plainly a foul. McGarry sank to the floor, and the referee held his hands high over his head.
 Ii Spectators expected that Mir Garry would be given the fight on foul The attitude of the referee indicated this very plainly.
 After holding his hands in the all at least half minute, Mir Cantwel started to count McGarry out. He had reached eight, going very slowly when Pete Lowery jumped in thu ring and dragged the sad-lookins Bronx boy to his corner thus havinl him disqualied and making furthel count unnecessary.
