ages. He was loudly and lengthily cheer
ed when he re-entered the ring
The Canadian also insisted Sufkily that
he would not allow OBrien to inspect his
apparatus nor would he remove the por-
ton objected to. Burns objected to
O'Brien's bandaged elbow. A proposal
was offered, and O'Brien assented, that
the men would fight wearing only sup
porters.
Burns received the greater amount of the
applause. although the Philadelphia was
the favorite in the betting. The O'Brien
hackers had to give odds. the price fuc-
was surprising amount Of Burns money
in sight.
Right at the start both were cautious
and seemed to be getting each others
with a savage rush. O'Brien did not like
his way of hitting in the clinches and
protested to Jeffries. O'Brien then cut
loose and seemed to daze the Canadian.
The Philadelphia smiled at those about
the ring in very confident manner.
Burns Was Confident.
The next two rounds saw O'Brien get
ting in his footwork and when Burns got
near him Jack clnched. In the fifth
Burns appeared to grow more confident
and the crowd began thinking O'Brien was
not fighting enough In the eighth Burns
had O'Brien worried and splitting blood.

was bleeding profusely. his face sight.
For a couple of rounds Burns had the
better of the argument.
James J. Jeffries, the retired heavy

as referee, climbed through the ropes
shortly after the principals took their cor

minutes.
A mountaineering crowd was present.
The preliminary sale OF seats was unprece-

After the fighters and Jenries entered
the ring there was a short delay in order
that the moving picture machine could be
tested This was found to be in perfect

Referee Jeffries went over with the
fighters the rules of the bout. These
called for the contest to take place under
straight Marquis of Queensbury rules.
They agreed to break on the order of the
referee and not to hit or hold after such
two warnings for this offense and a third
offense of this kind would result in the
man hitting being disqualified
The fight was for purse of $4,000, less
$1,000 which o Brien received for signing

the Technical High School team of this
city yesterday afternoon at American
League Park and was defeated by a score
of 8 to 0. By winning this contest the
local team wiped out the defeat of last
year in New York
The local team played fine game and
not once did it allow the visitors to get
within striking distance of the goal. Mess
the little end of the local team. played
star game. his tackling and breaking up of
interference on the defensive being very
noticeable, while on the offense he carried
the ball several occasions for good
gains and dropped field goal from the
ten-yard line, which gave Technical it's first
score. Thrall, at fullback, plowed through
the visitors line for long gains.
The contest opened by Ellis kicking off to
Loesch who was downed by Mess as soon
as he caught the ball. After series of
punts and several good gains by the local
team Technical finally secured possession
of the ball near their opponents goal, and,
with the pigskin on the six-yard line, Mess
dropped back and booted the oval through
the posts
In the second half the New Workers. came
back strong, and for time 1t looked like
they would secure a touchdown, but the
locals held them at the critical stage and
Technical secured the ball. Technical

team. reganed possession of the ball on
the four-yard line. Thrall was then showed

Standing Of Players.

NEW YORK, November 29.-Thomas J.
Gallagher overtoppled another of the lead
ers in the Class B championship tourna-
ment last night. He defeated his old-time
rival. Edward Mclaughlin, at the 1872 balk-
line game by the score Of 400 points to 361

selecting the white ball. Gallagher put to-
gether run OF Is as his first contribution.
Mclaughlin followed with 5, backed by 16,
to which Gallagher responded with and 2S
The ivory globes proved laggards under Nc
Laughlin's touch, which was in strong con-
trast to their performance while Gallagher
was at the table. At the tenth turn at the
table Gallagher passed the first hundred
mark in the lead.
Anxiety to assemble the balls for Close
play on the part of Mclaughlin handicap
peu him in no small degree during the
counting of the second hundred. He was
steadier than his opponent. although his
runs were not so large. On his twelfth turn

cred the balls in one of the corner divisions
and In such excellent position that the
crowd settled back expecting a big run as
the result. But Mclaughlin was straining
too greatly for delicacy of touch, with the
result that he badly miscued after the sew
enteenth count. He left fine set-up for
Gallagher, who added 40 to his score from
the leave by pretty balk-line work within
the territory Of the short table.
Mclaughlin came up to within ~ points
of his opponent as the latter passed into his
third hundred the score standing 2O4 for
Gallagher to 1872 for Mclaughlin. But the

FINAL COLLEGE GAMES
TO BE PLAYED TODAY

The final intercollegiate foot ball game Of
the year win be played on the gridiron this
afternoon. Principal interest centers in the
game to be contested on Franklin Field In
Philadelphia by Cornell and the University
Of Pennsylvania teams. Were it not for
the rather poor showing made by Pennsyl-
vania this fall and the defeat of Cornell by
Princeton. the game might. as It has In the
past. have some bearing on the decision Of
the intercollegiate championship. but in
view of the results of the minor games It
will be Of no moment in determining cham
pionship honors. though 1t promises to be
one Of the best contests of the year.
Cornell has this year one OF the best
teams In Its history. In spite of the defeat

enough to hold its own against any eleven
In the country. 1t lost to Princeton after
outplaying the Tigers by the fact that its
in the second half. and the fact that
things broke bad and 1t lost heart. Coach
Warner is confident 1t will more than re-
trieve itself this year.
On the relative showings in the early sea-
son it ought to be the favorite in the game
against Pennsylvania. The Quakers have
had a very disastrous year. in spite Of their
decisive defeat of Michigan. Lacking a

more. and tied by Lafayette and Gettys-
burg. Two Of the latter three Cornell beat
soundly. Nevertheless so great has been
the improvement Of the Red and Blue
eleven in the past four weeks that the Penn
rooters are fairly confident Of victory. In
trinsica1ly the team is as strong as any the
Quakers have ever had, IL the fumbling
fault can be eliminated.
Besides this there will be other interest
ing minor games. Fordham and Holy
Cross play in New York city. game which
will likely prove exceptionally hard fought
and interesting. Swarthmore and Haver-
ford play their annual game. The Car
Isle Indians play against the University of
Virginia, Georgetown tackles George Wash
