MORAN DISQUALIFIED.
Jack White Gets Decision in Ninth
Round-Used Elbow.

Los Angeles, July 20-After forcing
whatever lighting there was for near
Nv nine rounds of a scheduled 20-round
bout at the Vernon arena, today.
owen Moran of England was disqual-
flied for using his elbow in clincheS
and the decision awarded by Referee
Charles Eyton to Jack White of Chi
cago. The abrupt ending of the fight
was received with mingled cheers and
groans.
Moran did nearly all of the leading.
Fully half of the time was spent in
feinting and racing, Moran being the
pursuer. White had the better of only
one round, the seventh. when he land
ed three left swings to Morans head.
Moran was first warned in the fifth
round when a short left hook opened
Whites lip. The Chicagoan protested
that Moran had used his elbow in
striking the blow. Twice in subse-
quent rounds Moran was warned and
each time he protested that he was not
using his elbow.
Among the spectators there was al
most as much difference of opinion as
at the Wolgast Rivers decision, many
asserting it was because of Whites
method of defense in clinches that
Moran seemed to be fighting unfairly.
Moran displayed much more clever
ness than White. whose showing was
disappointing. Moran was 10 to 7is
favorite at the ringside, with COM
paratively little White money in sight.
Moran has fought his last fight for

DOES NOT ARRIVE.
Formal Protest of England Against
Panama Canal Bill.


Washington. July 2i-A. III. Innes,
British charge daffaires, called at the
state department again. Saturday. but
did not deliver the expected formal pro-
test of England against the Panama cam
al bill. 1t is probable the charge learned
unofficially the sentiment of the state
department in this matter. ~
Its position appears to be unanimously
in support of the contention, embodied
in the pending bill, that the American
government has an undoubted right to
favor its own ships. either by relieving
them from the payment of tolls or by
refunding tolls collected, without violat-
ing the Hay-Paunceforte treaty.
1t is recognized. however. that this is
subject that might fairly be made a
diplomatic issue, and as the department
has declined to enter into any such me-
gotiations so long the subject is un-
der discussion before Congress. it Is un-
likely that 1t will commit itself to any
formal statement of its position at this
time
