CONLEY WINS BANTAM
BELT FROM ATTEL
LITTLE HEBREW PUT UP
SLEEP IN 42ND ROUND
Monte Could Not Uenetrate Defense
OF Wisconsin Lad. and Receives
Terrible Beating-Defeatcd Cham
pion Turns Back to Conquerer.

Jeffries Arena, Los Angeles, Feb.
23.-Frankie Conley of Kenosha, Wis,
Knocked out Monte Attell of San
Francisco yesterday in the 42nd round
of a fight that was scheduled for as
rounds. Conley emerged from the
fierce encounter without q scratch,
while Attell lay on the floor for two
minutes after receiving Conley's fin
ishing blow on the jaw. his left eye
entirely closed and badly discolored;
his mouth and nose bleeding and his
lips swollen and bruised. His Sec
onds. did not wait for the referee to
count him out, but threw up the
sponge as the fallen fighter straight
ened his limbs and rolled on his back
five seconds after he had fallen.
Conley danced to his corner conf
dent Attell could not get up and that
he had won the bantam weight cham
pionship and the McCarey diamond
belt that goes with it.
Conley's Defense Impenetrable.
Attell never seemed to be able to
break through Conley's defense.
When they mixed It. he was always
the agressor but nearly always got the
worst of the exchange.
Attell perceptibly weakened in the
23rd round when Conley landed ter
rifle drive with his right under the
heart and he was going down hill
from that point on to the finish. In
the 37th Conley fought him to the
ropes and in the mixup Attell turned
his back on Conley and started to
run. Conley was ON him like flash
pnd the gong saved Attell from a
Knockout at this juncture.
Attell started the 42nd round with
his usual rush but slipped and fell
on all fours. Conley waited for him
to rise and then staggered him with
a series of lefts and rights As he
came away from a clinch Attell was
dazed by jabs to his face and turned
his back to run Conley suddenly
drove his right to the jaw and the
fight was over.
Attel's friends said after the fight
that he was not trained as thorough
ly as he might have been but they did
not attribute his defeat to this fact
altogether, but rather to the fact that
Conley puzzled him with his defense
land was unable to withstand a lot of
fearful punishment.

Especial Correspondence.)
Echo, Ore, Feb. 23-This town was
thrown into a state Of excitement yes
terday when c. A Chatman's dog car
ried the remains of human foot, in
state of putrefaction, and laid il at
the door of his master. The foot Is
supposed to have been dug by the
dog from under the building across
the street from the Hotel Echo and
formerly occupied by a resort known
as the Bucket Of Blood" saloon.
The building has not been used fo-
two or three years, while the appear
ance of the foot would indicate that
the man had not been dead more than
a few months.
Sheriff t, D. Taylor has been no.
titled of the discovery and Marshal
Boreland has been making an inves-
tigation. The ground is SO badly
frozen. however, that it will probably
be a week or two before a complete
examination OF the premises can be
made.
1.-THE Bucket Of Blood" f1ourished
along in 1906-07 when Echo was a
wide open town in every sense Of the
word and was known far and wide as
the widest ad wooliest town in all the
wild and woody west. A great change
has come over the west end metrop-
oils since that TING. however, and the
saloon building % 81 r.,l ned vacant
or has been used simply as a store
room for many months. In the days
when the Bucket OF Blood" and the
other drinking and gambling resorts
in Echo We're in the zenith of their
gopry, gambling flourished night and
day while holdups, robberies and
shooting scrapes followed each other
in rapid succession.

London, Feb. 2S.-It is alleged to-
day that for the prize OF social pre-
ferment Mrs. Asquith, wife of pre-
mier, whose social and political ca
reer has been one of the most re-
markable of the age, has influenced
her husband to weaken in his stand
against the lords. The king is being
criticized for having indirectly ex-
erted all of his good influence over
the premier with promises OF social
honors to his wife. Asquith's oppo-
nents say his vacillating policy threat
ems the early dissolution of the new
parliament.
1t was of Mrs. Asquith that the
poet Watson wrote the famous lines

Wolgast. He is confident that with
In six months he will again be the
lightweight champion. At present he
is making preparations to go to

and then to have three or four fights.

turned he will go after Wolgast.
Nelson spent the night In turkish
baths. He said this morning he did
not feel any worse than after many
OF his tough battles. His worst hurt
was a swollen groin where Wolgast
uppercut him at close quarters. Dis
cussing the chance of another fight,
the Dane said: 81 don't think I am
too old or have gone back, but am
going to give myself a thorough try
out before / seek another match with
wolgast. He can't punch hard
enough to put me away and I am a
better slayer. I don't want to take
any of the credit from wolgast, and
am not kicking, but l am sure I

Jack Robinson. Nelson's manager
admitted today he wanted to throw
up the sponge In the thirty-fourth
round. He broached the matter to
Nelson, but Bat declared II he stop
ped the fight he would never speak
to him again. Seeing the terrible
beating Nelson was getting, Robinson
tried to throw the sponge into the
ring. but was restrained by the other
seconds. Wolgast had things his own
way after the twenty second when
Nelson floored him. He regained his
senses quickly and thereafter fought
q brilliant battle. That the Dane has
gone back cannot be denied. His old
dash and recuperative power were not
there. Years OF training have brought
about muscular degeneration, and
sapped his remarkable vitality.
