wobbly at the count of eight and in
feeble way squared off in an effort to
protect himself.
Quick as the proverbial lightning
flash, Moran measured his helpless
opponent with two more punches, well
directed rights and lefts, and the Dane
struck the floor for the second time.
Again Referee Selig counted eight and
again the Battler responded to the
call and half forced himself to a
standing posture.
Like a tiger who has tasted of his
enemy's blood, Moran was after his
man for the third time. But he did not
have the chance to deliver the blow
that was aimed. Nelson slipped down
of his own accord and waited on his
knees till the referee had tolled off
eight seconds more. Then he did get
up again, and as soon as he regained
his feet Moran floored him for the
fourth time with a shower of rights
and lefts to the head.
This practically settled it. The
stalled and listened and rose once
more, this time at the count of nine
As he regained his feet Moran dealt
him another shower of punches, and
for the fifth time the once great light
weight champion measured his length
on the canvas floor. Selig counted up
to nine with the time keeper, who
tolled off the tenth second, and Selig
then counted Nelson out. 1t was all
over. The Battler had taken the count
for the first time in his great and
varied fighting career
Two seconds later Nelson was on
his feet and shaking hands with the
man who administered the crushing
defeat. He was smiling, but his brain
seemed to be befogged. He blamed
Selig for counting him out, claiming
that he still had a second to go. AS
q matter of fact, Selig gave him the
best of it on more than one occasion
when he lay on the floor, with Moran
dancing round, ready to land another
haymaker.
The vanquished Dane got a great
reception from the crowd, far great
err one than his victorious opponent.
Men stood up in their seats, tossed
their hats in the air and cheered the
great former champion. Such dis
play of wonderful gameness was never
seen in any prize ring.

British Sailors and Tribesmen Clash
England Believed to be Responsible
for the Trouble.
London, Dec. 27.-Reports received
today from southern Persia aud from
Dihai, in Arabia, have alarmed the war
Office.
They indicate clearly that the recent
engagement between English sailors
from the cruiser Hyacinth and tribes
men at Dibai, in which fourteen sailors
and three times this number OF natives
were slain, was only the beginning
of widespread campaign against the
British, who are accused OF seeking the
permanent occupation of southern Per-
STA.
Dibai is being made the centre OF
operations and from this point hun
dred OF Persians are being supplied with
arms by gunrunners.
A dispatch from Bushire, on the
southern coast OF Persia, says that the
English consulate at Bandar Abbas, a
town of strategical importance, has

gun-platform has been erected outside

All mails to the north have been
discontinued and many of the telegraph
lines have been cut.
The Kuhrgelus tribesmen north OF
Shiraz DESTROYED a number OF villages
and massacred many OF the inhabi-
tants.
England is accused OF fomenting
the present disturbance for the purpose
OF creating such state OF disorder that
she will have an excuse for landing a
sufficient force to control the whole OF
southern Persia and thus facilitate her
reported scheme of permanently oc-
cupying the country.
Months ago England and Russia
gave every indication Of acting in con-
cert in the control Of Persia, Russia to
invade the northern part and England
the southern. The plan was then
blocked through the opposition OF
Germany and Turkey.
