 It looks as though the "Old Maes- tro" were all in. Tho showing Cans made against Jabez White could truth fully be termed sad. He didn't have that snap and dash so noticeable when he was in his prime, and he ear taank his lucky stars 1t was White he was pitted against that night. Had. it been any one of a dozen lightweight who may be named the ex-ehampior would surely have lost by the ign n inous sleep route. He can punch A stS his right hand still when he lands, the sting seems to have left tho other one. He used to have a corking lefJ book that swonsa send an op- pOne1J's head back with a teTk, bui that member was welbnigh useless the otaer night. He tires rapidly, and little dragging about makes hin breathe hard an gasp like fish out Of water. His great fault against White. White was his inability to judge dis taHce. In the old days he could pick q fly of your chin with either hand and seldom miss. h the taird round with White he tried with hs rght for the chin four times during tho first mute and all went. 8lte of tae mark Durng the ten rounds he must hasG missed close to hundred times. IAse tho old-tibe ball player it may be that his eyes are no longer true. ON moro is ne the master of distance that ne was.

 Some of the extremists who wit nessed the bout said 1t was a fake. but this is not likely. The opinion Of the better judges was that both Cans and White had seen their best days Cans looked emaciated and drawn before the first bell rang. White at best never was a real champion. Botb at their best, the Englishman would have been easy picking. ~It was g wOrnout champion against a boxer Of mediocre abiIit with the result that the former won in slow, tiresome bout. IL is doubtful If either Cans CT White ever will receive another chance in New York. It was the eur few for the old bacon gataerer. The cent contest goes @ long way toward verifying the opinion advanced by some, several months ayo, that Cans made his last spurt as GeldfisIl Ghat 'gruelling battle sapped what vitality there was left. Against a rugged bop today he would have Werfd of trou ble.

the American people through your inn
partial journals the grave motive of
my government for executing the
Americans. Cannon and Groce, to
counterfeit the effect of intentional
false reports given by the enemies of
my government.
THE revolutionists occupied A
strong position at the mouth of the
river San Juan with view to blow
up the steamers conveying govern
ment troops.
"One mine was exploded near the
Diamante. which had five hundred
soldiers on board. Cannon and Groce
were captured in the act and confess
ed voluntarily their guilt.
Given Fair Trial.
'"They were tried by courtmartial,
were given every legal privilege to in
troduce ample defense, and sentence
was pronounced according to the mill
tary code.
Cannon had taken part in various
revolutions in 1897. The government
of Honduras pardoned him on the ex-
press condition that he would abstain
in future from Central American in
ternal troubles.
When Cannon and Groce were cap
tured they were serving as officers
with the revolutionists.
