same age as Miss Van Wyck and had
been attentive to her.
Miss Van Wyck, Childs and another
young man were together, when sud

STILL CHAMPION.
GOtCh Easily Defeats Hack
enSChmidt at Chicago.
WINS IN STRAIGHT FALLS.
Russian Challenger For Worlds
Wrestling Honors outseneraled and
outcIassed by American In
Quick Time.

Chicago, Sept 5.-Outgeneraled and
outfought, George Hackenschmidt, "the
Russian lion," laid down his hope of
the worlds wrestling championship to
Frank Gotch, worlds champion. The
first fall came in IA minutes Is 1-5
seconds on reverse body hold and
wrist lock. The second fall came in
8 minutes 80 Is seconds, Gotch using
his fatal toe hold that won him the
championship three years ago.
Hackenschmidt, unframed, was hog
fat, He had no chance whatever. He
the ring.
Gotch, trained to the minute and
seeming the acme of physical perfec-
ton, beat Hack at every stage of the
game. The masterful strength which
Hack was supposed to possess did not
show to advantage when Gotch clasp
ed the lion. The Iowa farmer was
simply too good for the Russian. He
pitted physical strength against a man
who had practically no strength. The
result was inevitable.
Hackenschmidt is guaranteed $1,000
and large percentage Of the picture
privileges.
Gotch won the worlds title from
Hackenschmidt three years ago.
Two hundred policemen were at the
ringside today to see that no foul tao
tics were resorted to.
The promoters expect that the gate
receipts will reach 100000.
The out of town visitors filled all the
hotels, and many who could not pay
walk the streets.
In boxes near the ringside were sew
eral hundred women. Prominent
among them were Gotch's mother, his
wife and mother-in-law. The latter
three occupied box directly in front
of the arena, and with them sat Jack
Curley, manager of Gotch's training
camp, and Emil Klank, Gotch's man
ager 1t is safe to say that the femi-
nine relatives of the champion were
the most interested in all the vast
crowd of spectators.
There was little betting. The di-
rectors of the Empire Athletic club
ruled that "all bets are off," thus re-
moving the club from any RESPONSE
bility which might afterward arise. 1t
was merely a technicality for the pro-
lection of the club which promoted
the contest. One bet of $400 to 5000
was made, and the prevailing odds
