BRITT BROKE WRIST
IN FOURTH ROUND
Cans Awarded Decision ia the Contest
for the Lightweight Championship
in the Fourth Round

San Francisco, Sept l0--A left swing
to the body, cleverly blocked by Joe
Cans, cost Jimmy Britt any chance he
might have had to win the lightweight
championship Of the world yesterday,
and brought to a close five rounds Of fast
fighting before $4,000 persons at the
Recreation park.
The deciding blow was caught by Cans
on the elbow in the middle Of the fourth
round. 1t broke Britt's wrist, and al
though the Californian went on fighting
III the fifth round, he was helpless in
both offense and defense 1T was not

Gleason was informed at the ringside
and he stopped the fight. Referee Welch
then gave the decision to Cans. Three
doctors, after an examination, announced
that the injury was fracture and dis
location OF the lower end Of the ulma.
Whether it was a genuine fracture or
not, Britt showed such intense suffering
while the doctors were manipulating his

Britt's lack Of GOODNESS was partly re-

fight. From the FIRST tap Of the gong,
Britt appeared over'cager lie was not

him by his seconds to make Cans do
the leading, but he rushed headlong into

far the advantage
In the first round he drove Cans to
the ropes with left swing on the neck
that had lots of force in It. In the
same round he also sent lefts and rights
successfully to the body and face, but
took straight left on the nose which
made him slow down,
The second round developed a mix-up
at the ropes in which both men ex-
changed vicious rights and lefts, Cans
having the advantage.
In the third Cans followed MP his tac-
tics Of crowding Britt into corner and
the Californian had to keep his hands
and feet busy working his way out.
Honors were about even in this round.
Cans drew FIRST blood IN the fourth,
with a swift straight left, which caused
a scarlet stream to trickle from the cor

SARATOGA ABLAZE TO
WELCOME THE G. A. R.
The Arriving Hosts Of the White Crown
ed Veterans Greeted by Lights
and Flags.

Saratoga, N. Y, Sept. l0.--Under clear
skies and between intermittent down
pours of rain, thousands OF old soldiers
came to Saratoga yesterday, many mar
yelling at the splendor Of the arrange,
ments made for their reception.
The welcome Of the citizens was cor.
dial and the greetings of Iong-parted
comrades was enthuiastic and scores OF
worn faces lighted up at the hearty re-
ception, but the whitened locks and
halting steps OF the courageous veterans
told painful story, which will find an
echo of sympathy in the hearts OF all
those throughout the United States who
know what they did and dared in the
dark days when rebellion and distress
swept through the land.
It is felt that the beginning Of the
end has come for the annual national
encampments as at present conducted.
The first step will be taken at the busi-
ness session Of the present cneampmant,
when resolution will be introduced
that the city Of Washington be made
the permanent meeting place Of the ma
tional encampment in the future.
The resolution win be vigorously
fought, especially BY the western
members, and those well versed In the
politics Of the order insist that the reso.
lution is certain to fail Of adoption. II
will, however, be brought up again next
year and the year following, and even
the most ardent opponents Of the plan
do not deny that eventually the measure

For New Bridge Across Jail
Branch
THEY ATTACH A PROVISO
That If the City Does Not Lower Sand
Hill Within Two Years, Bridge May
Be Ordered If Court Says
They Have Power. s.

The courts commission which heard
the petition for bridge across Jail
branch just above Phelps Mills, one end
Of which would be in Barre Town and
the other in this city, has made its re-
port to county court. The commissions
ers find against the petitioners. They,
however, say, your commissioners are
aware that in this report they are liable to
the criticism Of going beyond their juris.
dietion in reporting the matters herein
referred to, but there should be some
remedy for the existing condition OF af-
fairs in reference to the road in ones-
tion, and in view of the large expense
not only to the state, but to the petit
tioners and to the town and city Of
Barre caused by hearing this petition.
some substantial benefit is desirable.
therefore we recommend that this hon
orable court upon the fling of this re-
port, continue this cause and that if the
said city of Barre shall on or before the
September term Of the Washington
county court, 1909, grade and macada-
mize Sand Hill in the way and manner

the work during the season Of lgu5, that
then this petition be dismissed.
I'VE recommend this because the work
Of grading and maeadamizing Sand Hill
can be done much cheaper than building
the bridge across Jail branch, and grad
ing and maeadamizing the other route,
as is hereinbefore described as necessary,
and because if this is done the existing
defects viii be substantially obviated.
If, however, this honorable court ad-
judges that such an order cannot be
made, then we find that principally be-
cause of the uncertainty Of the condi-
tion, the proposed route would be in on
account of the nature of the soil over
which the road would be built and the
grade on Clay Hill, and because and
for the lesser reason Of the large ex-
pense it would make for the town and
city of Barre, and because of the many
and grievous burdens which the said city
is now carrying and must in the future
carry, and considering its high rate Of
taxation, we find that the public good
does not require the laying Of the high
way and building Of the bridge asked for
in this petition, and the same should
be dismissed"

Use Of a Rubber Stamp May Prevent
Detection Of Syracuse City Thief

Syracuse, ~ Y, sept. 1O.-A firm Of
New York accountants which has been
examining the books of the city treas
urer's Office filed a preliminary report
yesterday with the mayor, showing de-
falcations amounting to S30,945.01 In
the period from 1858 to 1894. The
books from 1895 to the present time
are now being examined.
The report states that two systems
were followed in the thefts. IN many
cases persons received receipts when
making payments and the account was
allowed to remain on the books. In
other eases the amount Of the bill was
credited and the money stolen from the
funds in the Office Owing to the fact
that a rubber stamp was used in re-.
ceipting bills, it is not thought that the
guilty persons can be reached.
