LANG LOSES ON FOUL
LANGFoRD WINS IN SIXTH ROUND
AT LONDON.
Negro Has Advantage over Australian
Before Latter Is Disqualified
Winner to Fight Johnson.
evrr@oo fIe0ee .1e9~1e

London, Feb. 22.-Sam Langford de-
feated Bill Lang of Australia last
night at the Olympia before a crowd
OF 5000 enthusiastic spectators. in the
sixth round OF a scheduled 2O.round
rignt for Il purse of $4,000.
Among The spectators were many
titled women. Lady Constance Rich
athletic prov ess, sat near the ring
side.
Langford, although he won foul
had the advantage over Lang from the
start and had the Australian almost
out when the foul was committed.
The Australian had the advantage in
height and reach, but the negro was
far ahead OF Lang ia ring generaiship
and science. although the latter was
hailed as the hope OF the white race"
Lang never had a chance to win.
Four times the American negro had
fioored the Australian white and was
thrashing him around the ring at will.
In the first three rounds Langford
found his task so easy that he slowed
up as if to give the spectators a bet
ter run for their admission money In
the fifth he had Langs eyes almost
closed.
In the sixth round Lang. in despera-
ton, resorted to rough tactics. Lang
ford made vicious swing at mis-. ad-
versary and slipped down in doing so.
While on his knees Lang punched him
with his left on the back of the head
and was promptly disqualified and the
fight given to Langford.
The winner OF the battle has been
practically matched to meet Jack
Johnson for the worlds heavyweight
title. The betting on the fight was
rather light. only n moderate amount
of money changing hands at the pre-
vailing odds of to 2 and to at the
ringsde

TAFT SENDS IN JAP TREATY
Feature Of Document Transmitted to
Senate Is Omission Of Immiera-
ton Restrictions.

Washington, Feb. 22-President
Taft has transmitted to the senate the
proposed new treaty with Japan.
The distinctive feature of the docu-
ment is that 1t omits all reference to
the restrictions now imposed by the
United States on the admittance of
Japanese immigrants to these shores.
The understanding is that this all
important question is left.to the ma
tional honor Of the Japanese govern
ment which is expected to enforce at
her home ports the limitations which
are now enforced under the Root-Aoki
agreement in the matter OF her sub,
iects who seek entrance to the United
States.
Pending ratification, the new treaty
is submitted to the senate as a conf
Dental document, and it is impossible
to secure the exact text OF the docu,
ment
