fair.
The boys were so clever, fast and
evenly matched that it was difficult
for them to mix it up. In a large
measure the fight was marred by the
poor work of Doc Wallace. who ref
creed Gibbons and Clabby fought at
a fast clip during the first two rounds
and the crowd was well satisfied with
the scrap
Gibbons entered the ring ten pounds
lighter than Clabby. and fighting I'M
der such "a handicap, put up an ex-
cellent scrap. The st. Paul boy was
poorly handled in his corner. With
better advisers he could have been
pulled through the fight winner on
points by a considerable margin. When
he exchanged blows with Clabby he
had the better of the argument, but
for some unexplainable reason his sec
onds held him back instead of sending
him after the lanky Hoosier mixer.
Battling Nelson. Teddy Murphy and
other fistic experts remarked about
the poor manner in which Gibbons
was handled and agreed with the writ
er that had the ST. Paul boy been
more aggressive he would have won
on points. At long range work Gibbons
had Clabby swinging like a. gate in a
windstorm and missing straight leads
and short swings by several feet.
When at close work C1abby was un-
aDle TO WORK MS loop the loop puICH
for which he is famous. For genuine
cleverness and speed, Gibbons made
Clabby look cheap at times, but Clabby
was willing and trying hard all the
time. Gibbons used a straight left
jab which worried his rangX rival and
had nasty way of hooking in that
same left in most tantalizing man
.ner. Clabby did his best work at close
range but he couldn't hit Gibbons
hard enough to hurt him. 1t is really
too bad that Gibbons was not handled
better. for he fought for all there was
in him. He would have won on points
and would have been so credited by
the sporting writer's present.
Had Gibbons gone right in and
fought from bell to bell he would have
made bigger hit with the spectators,
for Mike is popular in this city.
Three corlSing good preliminary
fights were pulled Off In the curtain
raiser, Eddie Clabby, a brother of
Jimmy, had the best of Tod Young,
a local boy. The bout went the six
round limit. These boys were feath-
erweights.

journey which he had enjoyed. He had
spoken at many places and to large audi
ences, and seen the Wilson boom in q
fiourishing condition. In Bryan strong
holds particularly he had aroused much
enthusiasm. partly because Of hts advo-
cacy Of policies widely accepted as Bryan
istic. and partly because Of the current
rumor that Mr.. Bryan regards the Jersey
man with much favor.
And yet. fresh from this experience.
Gov. Wilson ran into the necessity here
of choosing between Mr.. Bryan and Mr..
Underwood on the wool question. and
took the Underwood side. Declaring for
free raw materials. he yet agreed that in
the present emergency a duty on raw
wool was justifiable. He praised the dem
ocratic leadership of the House. and
wished 1t continued success on the same
lines.
cool his admiration for Gov Wilson'S
democracy? He has never gone further
than to praise Gov. Wilson's work at
home. which ey,G. many republicans have
praised. But wool Is national. and Mr..
Bryan seems disposed to make 1t an
issue. Will he De angered. or simply dis
appointed. to find Gov. Wilson "Aldrich
ized'' on that proposition and training
with the Interests? Mr.. Bryan's fear
is that democrats who are not sound on
wool are sound on nothing: that they are
either deceving themselves. or attempting
a betrayal of the party. For his part, he
will not have the wool pulled over his
eyes. Free wool is his latest test OF de-
mocracy.
Suppose then Gov. Wilson loses what
ever favor he may have gained In Mr.
Bryan's eyes. Because of that favor he
has lost some support In the east. Both
at home and across the river in New
York he is regarded with suspicion now
by certain men who rejoiced in his ap-
pearance in politics and helped elect him
to his present Office. They were guiding
by the sentiments he had expressed In
his books, and by the fact Of his long,
time intimacy with Mr.. Cleveland. But.
presto, ne is no sooner installed as gov
ernor and mentioned for the presidency
than he reverses himself on important
national questions. and wins the applause
of Mr.. Bryan and many Of the latter's
friends.
1t is an interesting situation for Gov.
Wilson. for Mr.. Bryan, and, indeed. for
all democrats. and all the more so for
the fact that. although the democratic
national convention is a full year away.
delegate hunting is already in progress,
and the most skillful hunters are busy
beat ting the bushes.
