Nelson was not out yesterday
morning till about noon. He is badly
battered up. He will not stay longer
i'm Goldfield than is necessary as he
is doubtless the most unpopular man
that ever visited the mining camp.

Nelson fouled him Intentionally,
knowing that he had no chance To
win. The negro says that he was
comparatively strong when the foul
MAS struck and was sure of winning.

had instructed Nelson to hit low, No
Ian makes complete denial and de
cIares Nelson did not foul Cans. He
says that he aud Eclson have been
iobbed and that il was planned all
along to give Cans the fight. He says
he makes no charges against Siler

fleet upon the referee. He claims
that Nelson was as strong in the IL
