San Francisco, October 16.-Jec'
Johnson indicated his right TO the
heavyweight title today by knocking
out Stanley Ketchel in the twelftl
round. The end came so suddenly
that when Ketchel rolled onto the
floor and Referee Welsh counted

who leaned against the ropes half
dazed by HIS own fall a moment be-
fore, did not seem to know what
had happened.
The climax of the fight was
crowded intos thirty-four seconds. AT
the beginning OF the last round there
was little to judge from the proceed
ing rounds TO pick the winner. The
men in the center OF the ring clinch-
ed and wrestled to Johnson's corner

blow landed behind his ear. He

the floor, landing heavily.
JOHNSON FOUGHT LIKE TIGER.
Ketchel backed toward the ropes
with a smile glimmering in his bat
tered, blood-streaked face. Johnson
rose slowly, as though dazed. AS
he Strengthened to his knees, his
leyes encountered Ketchel' and with
the fury OF wild beast, he leaped
across the ten feet that separated
them. HIS right fist shot to the
white mans jaw. His left crashed
to the stomach and the right swung
again with the speed OF lightning,
catching Ketcheps head as he reeled
back from the onslaught. Ketchel
dropped in a heap. and Johnson, un-
able to stop HIS rush, sprawIed
across his beaten rivals legs and
fell full length himself.
The negro sprang to his feet with
a bound, but Ketchel was out. Once

more cautious than usual, ana he is
noted Tor taking few chances in a
fight Jenries is naturally also very
cautious. SO there will doubtless be
rounds In which little work is done,
but the rally should be hot enough
20 satisfy a bull fighter. II will be
real lighting. for the reason that the
two men dislike each other most
heartily. Jemries makes no secret of
his feelings toward Johnson, and the
negro is human enough 20 wish TO re-
taliate. There seems TO be more
public feeling over this coming bat
tle than any that has taken place
since the Fitzsimmons-Corbe con-
test at Carson City.
There has been popular demand
Tor Jeffries to come out OF retire
ment and win back the champion
ship from the black man. and IL he
succeeds he will win popularity that
will equal John l.. Sullivan's in the
heyday or his glory. When at his
best Jeffries was not a popular fight
err for the reason that his cautious
style and great bulk made spectators
favor his smaller opponent IL will be
different when Jeffries faces John
son. Nine out of ten followers of
boxing VIII favor the white man. and
If he wins his glory will be unlimit-
ed. a majority OF those who will
support Johnson will do it purely on
mercenary grounds. They will bet
on the negro, believing that he is
now better man than Jeffries, and
their feelings will naturally follow
their money interests.
Reports OF the -Ketchel
battle agree on several important
points---that Johnson was too big
and strong. TOO clever, a better ring
general and a heavier hitter than
many believed. Ketchel was game
and showed that he was a natural
fighter, but in going out Of his class
TO meet the formidable negro a fatal
mistake was made by his manager.
Willus Britt. Ketchel a year ago
made IL clear that he did not want
90 go after the heavyweight title
until he had gained more experience
and weight. He is only a boy and is
growing rapidly, for which reason
he expressed a desire to wait for
about three years before tackling a
champion. But Britt. with his
usual hit or miss policy, talked him
into the fight with Johnson and in
that way made a mess OF the young
pugilist's ~ring career
Ketchei did his best under over
whelming odds, but that was about
all. The fact that he knocked John
son down In the twelfth round
showed that he had his punch with
him. but that he could not land il
on the right spot because OF the ne
gro's clever defensive tactics. The
way Johnson cut loose his attack
after being foored, however, proved
that he did not have the much dis
cnssed yellow streak and was a slug
ger as well as a boxer
ut was a chance blow that beat
mel" said Ketchel after the fight.

GAME FIGHT BY KETCHEL.

Ketchel won many friends by his
showing today. From the time he
entered the ring until he was car
lied out, he was game TO the core.
Outweighed overreached and in
very way the physical inferior Of
his gigantic opponent. he fought a
DOL. well4placed. gritty asht. His
ace was pulled and he was bleed
ng at the nose and mouth before
three rounds had passed, but he
ept following the negro about the
ing undaunted.
Johnson appeared to be holding
hmself back all the time. Three
ines only did he look as though he
vent In TO knock his man out
'nce when Ketchel landed a clean
eft hook on the jaw that broke the
skin and raised a lump, once when
1 similar blow caught him from the
lther side and the last time when
he fight ended.
Throughout the fight, Johnson's
golden smile" flashed out at inter
walls over Ketchels shoulder in the
midst OF their wrestling bouts. This
happened whenever he picked the
smaller man of the ground and set
him down again in another place.
He did it frequently and apparently
without effort.

KETcHEL FOUGHT wARILY.

Ketchel fought warily from the
start. He kept at long range, avoid
ing many blows by clever ducking
put Johnson jabbed his left into
the white mans face time after
time. When they cIinched the black
mans head lowered inches above
ketchel's head. and it looked as
though a stripping was wrestling
with a man.
Twice Ketchel was thrown to the
floor by the rush of Johnson's at
tack. Neither time did a blow land
AT other times Ketchel avoided the
charges by skipping nimbly to right
or LEFT or backing swiftly away. They
spared for openings for long periods
and there was little real fighting
through the earlier rounds. For rea-
sons known only to himself, johnson
preferred TO keep away, and when
he had felt the force of KetcheIs
wicked left hook, he seemed more
than ever ready TO go slow about his
work
WHAT JOHNSON SAYS.
In his dressing room after the
fight. Johnson said:
He is a good puncher and a
strong man. must say that he
has given me a sorer chin than /
ever had before" and he rubbed his
swollen jaws refectiveiy.
