MEXICAN WINS.
Knocked Young Corbett Out in
the 9TH Round.
Herrera Had Matters All His
Way From the Start.
DENVER LAD ALL IN.
In the Fourth He Showed a
Touch of Old Time Form.
Final Blow to the Head Was
Indeed ssStunner.'
DENVER LAD ALL IN.

Los Angeles, Jan. 13.=Aurelio Her
rera of Bakersfield, Cal, knocked out
Young Corbett in the fifth round last
night at the Pacific Athletic club pa
vilion. Herrera's victory was an easy
one. Corbetts exhibition was disap-
pointing. He lacked the vim and dash
that had won so many battles for him,
and his once forceful blows failed to
inflict any damage upon the well con-
ditfoned body of his opponent
The fight came near ending in the
first round. In the last minute of the
round Herrera caught Corbett on the
jaw with left and right in quick sue
cession and sent him staggering against
the ropes, but over anxiety to land the
finishing blow caused him to swing
wildly and Corbett quickly gathered
his wits and STAYED off defeat for the
time being.
In the fourth round Corbett showed
brief burst of his old time form,
twice forcing Herrera against the ropes
and landing with both hands. Early in
the fifth round Herrera succeeded in
countering solidly with his right on
Corbett's jaw and the Denver boy stag
gered.
Quick as flash the Californian was
upon him with a series of rights and
lefts that sent him to the floor. Cor
bett got up Immediately but again went
down from a right swing that caught
him OH the side of the head. He strug-
gled to his feet a the count of six and
tried to clinch. Herrera pushed him
against the ropes and setting himself
swung a vicious right flush to the jaw
Corbett fell upon his face and lay in
that position until he was counted out.
He was carried to his corner and it re
quired FIVE minutes work by his sec
onds to bring him around
There was considerable betting on
the fight At first the odds were 10 to
in COrbett's favor, but during the
day switched to even money and at the
rinesfde there was no Corbett money
in sight st 10 to 8 with Herrera

COLLINS TO HANDLE BosToN's.
Taylor VIII Practically Be Disposed,
Though Not by Sale.

Chicago, Jan. 13."When the Amer
lean league baseball season opens 1t is
practically assured that Jimmy Col
Inns, manager and third baseman of
the Boston team. will be the respon-
sible head of the clubs affairs. The
stock held by John I. Taylor viii not
be sold or transferred, but on account
of differences he has had with mem
bers of the team, Taylor will cease to
be at the head of the club. except pos
sibly in name, and the duties of hand
ling the team, signing players, making
contracts, etc, will fall upon the
shoulders of Captain Jimmy Collins.
Within the next few weeks President
johnson win go to Boston with Cap
tan Collins and probably arrange
matters with Mr.. Taylor, which will
give Collins the complete control over
the clubs affairs in general. Taylor is
expected to travel extensively the COM
ing year, and will not be in a position
to give much attention to his ball club
The general cut in salaries which
President Taylor made in sending out
contracts for the season of 1905 will
probably not stand. It is understood
that he sliced off about 25 per cent in
some cases, and many of the players
are clamoring to be sold or traded to
other teams. Jesse Tannehill, the
star pitcher of the league last year,
has refused to sign his contract. and
rebellion has been heard of from other
quarters.

Competition for work has started a war
Of strikes on individual buildings between
the unions under the arbitration agreement
and the old unions which stopped work on
a number of buildings yesterday. Though
the bricklayers are under the arbitration
agreement they went on strike at 12sth
street and Madison avenue against the
Greater New York, Electrical Workers
Union, which is under the arbitration agree
ment, and in favor OF the old Electrical
Workers Union. They also struck at l25th
street and Pleasant avenue against nom
union wood fathers. Strikes owing to a
hght between rival unions have also taken
place on buildings in Amsterdam avenue
between Seventy-second n Seventy-third
streets.
Two series Of strikes occurred this week
at the McCreeIy Building, which runs from
Thirty-hfth street to Thirty sixth street
near Fifth avenue, which led to the dis
charge and subsequent reinstatement Of
members Of Plasterers' Union No. rs, the
old union. First the union under the arbi-
tration agreement struck on the building,
the general contractor for which is the
Thompson-Starrett Company, to force the
discharge Of members Of Plasterers' Union
No. rs, and the members OF No. 25 were dis
charged to make room for members of the
new union Of plasterers. Then the walking
members out to force the reinstatement OF
the discharged plasterers. The old unions
proved the stronger and the plasterers we're
reinstated yesterday. The last report was
to the effect that no further strike has been
ordered.

w~ILKEsBARRE, Pa, Sept. 2I.-After fight
ing for six years in an effort to prove their
right to boycott the open shop firm of J. E.
Patterson a Co. Of this city, John ]. Casey,
Peter Koser and Daniel A. Post, officers of
the Building Trades Council OF this city,
to-day paid into court Ss4l SIS costs and
fines. for contempt of court. They were
convicted Of violating an injunction re-
straining them from boycotting the firm.
The progress of this case has been watched
with keen interest throughout the United
States both by the advocates Of the open
shop and the labor unions. Tn defendants
were supported by their national ~organiza-
ton, which provided funds for the fight and
for the fines and costs.
Patterson 4 Co., in 1900, refused TO
sign a union closed shop agreement and
soon afterward found the Building Trades
Association vas preventing men from
working on buildings for which they sup

which were being used materials furnished

Later the court was informed that the
defendants were continuing the boycott,
and after a bitterly fought trial they were
found guilty OF contempt of court. They
appealed to the Superior Court and the
judgment Of the lower court was affirmed.
