WILL MATCH
BY WIRELESS
Athletic Challenges viii Be
Sent by the Ether
Route.

Arrangements have been made to
wireless the boxers and wrestlers
aboard the battleships Alabama and
Maine as soon as possible, with the
idea of ascertaining the men who will
oppose Young Nelson and Sailor Rob-
erts in Independence Hall tomorrow
night
A challenge will be sent by wireless
and a wireless answer requested. in
order that arrangements for the bouts
may be completed as speedily as pos
sible and no time lost.
The ring was constructed yesterday
and is one of the finest ever used for
a bout in Honolulu. Chairs enough to
accommodate the best part of a thou
sand spectators are being placed in the
building.
Electric lighting is also well under
way, and when the hall is completed
nothing will be lacking for the ac-
commodation and comfort of the
public.
A feature of the hall will be spacious
dressing-rooms, in which the boxers
and wrestlers will prepare themselves
for their contests.
Young Murphy worked out in pri-
vate yesterday and showed that he is
in shape to go a fast ten rounds at
least.
Sailor Roberts is also in splendid
trim and is confident of being able 20
lower the colors of any wrestler of his
weight with whom he may try con-
illusions on the mat.
A boxer, new to the local ring, who
may be stacked up against some 1856
FOUNDER from the fleet, is Peter STAN
ley, who punched the bag so well 1T
the Orpheum on the occasion of the
recent celebrated exhibition. Stanley
is clever and willing and is anxious
for go. He bars no one at his
weight.
If Jimmy Spencer has got into con-
dition for bout on the mat there is
a chance of his securing a match with
Navy wrestler.
Soldiers Plat and Murphy are book
ed for another encounter, and those
who missed their first meeting in the
ring will all be present when they
clash again better match than
these two willing men present has
never been seen in Honolulu.
The first bouts will in all proba
bility take place tomorrow night, and
on Saturday another series of contests
will be pulled off.

visitors to this city.
This race is to be made an annual
