through the streets, brandishing

rifles was heard in various sections
of the city.
Row over Counting Of Votes.
The principal rioting a the result
of a dispute between the Republicans
and the MOnarchists regarding the
counting of votes. The Republicans
had been fearing fraud at the various
polling places and made a determined
stand for their rights at ST. Domi-
nique's church. When til polls closed

clared that it was too late to count
the votes and proposed to keep the
list in the church and count them in
the morning. The Republican te!lors
refused TO assent to this. insisting
upon an Immediate count.

Hackenschmidt Quits in Wrest-
ling Contest for Worlds
Title at Chicago.
GOTCh'S Defense IS PERFECT
After Two Hours Of Unavailing Tugging
and %SCrambling the Russian
Lion Gives Up.

Chicago. April 5.-Georse Hacken-
schmidt quit in his match with Frank
Gotch for the catch-as-catch-can
wrestling championship of the world
last night. giving the title to the Iowa
nan by default.
After more than two hours of un-
availing Juggling and desperate scram
bling. the Russian said TO Gotch:
IN give you the match"
Referee Smith at once declared
Gotch the winner. The end came so
Unexpectedly hat the great crowd of
5000 which witnessed the contest
could scarcely comprehend what had
happened. Not until the referee had
announced that Hackenschmidt had
surrendered the championship of the
world to Frank Gotch did the full sig
nificance Of the event strike home.
Gotch's Defense Perfect.
Then the excited men swarmed into
the ring. %surging about Gotch, until
the police came to his rescue and
drove the crowd back through the
ropes. The match was in some re-
spects sensational, but 1t served main
ly to show that Gotch has a defensive
system which no one can break down.
For IN hour and forty-fve minutes
he eluded every attempt of the Rus
sian lion to fasten a grip on him.
Gotch side stepped. roughed his mans
features with his knuckles, butted
| him under the chin and generally wor-
| ried Hackenschmidt until the foreign
err was totally at a loss how to pro
coed.
Hackenschmidt Gives Up.
But when, in the clinch that finally
came, Gotch slammed his opponent to
the mat and came within an ace Of
securing a firm toe hold. following
this up by lifting Hackenschmidt clear
of the mat and slamming him on his
shoulders with terrific force, the Euro
pean exponent was heartbroken. The
lines slowly deepened on his face, the
boots and gibes of the crowd hurt his
feelings and after considering the mat
| ter for a few seconds he decided that
it was time to quit. Few of the spec
tators but were willing to give Gotch
the palm. The Iowa farmer was in
the better condition, was quicker and
trickier, and showed a far better
knowledge Of the game.
