ABE ATTELL GETS
 DRAW WITH MURPHY
FEAT HEAVYWEIGHT GOES TWENTY FAST ROUNDS TO DRAW WITH
 THE LIGHTWEIGHT.

San Francisco, Cal, Aug. 3.-Abe Attell and Harlem Tommy Murphy fought 20 rounds to a draw at Cof- froth's arena today. Attell was se- verely punished and was bleeding profusely during the last rounds. His cleVerness saved him, Referee Grif- fins verdict was fayorably accepted by the crowd.
 Although Murphy was only slightly
 marked, Attell landed three blows to the formers one, and outclassed the New Yorker in cleverness and agility. The men fought at light weight but Attell was several pounds under the limit
 The first three rounds were tame,
 with the featherwelght battler getting a bit the better of it in the swift in terchange of long range blows to the face, most of which were spent before they landed
 In the fourth, Murphy poised his right, and when Atteil was uncovered,
 shot it to the face. Abe caught the blow at mid-range and blood stream ed from his mouth. Two smart clips to the face gashed his cheek and
 Murphy followed his advantage in forcing a session of fast milling.
 In the succeeding rounds Attell used his left to better advantage,
 planting several tattoes of short jabs On Murphy's mid-section The blows
 lacked their old time punishing pow CT and did not begin to tell until the eleventh round, when Murphy began
 to show distress from the hammering
 on the body. Several savage rushes by the New Yorker were stayed by vicious jabs to the ribs. The body
 blows saved Attell in the closing
 rounds of the fight. His mastery over his opponent in the fine points
 of the game became more apparent as
 the figh wore on, but in the desper-
 ate mitigating he suffered.

 smashing tactics occasionally by fore.

Arkansas and Louisiana people are becoming interested in the forthcom- ing race in view of the possibility that not improbable shifting of the air currents at this season of the year may carry the big balloons across these states Many visitors now summering in the Pikes Peak region from Louisiana and Arkansas have shown a great deal of interest in this phase of the proposition.
 No such race as this has ever been started in this section of the United States and the aeronauts are anxious to know what effects Pike's Peak and it's altitude will have on the big bai- looms. The inland location of Colo rado Springs and the prevailing di- rection of the wind combine to offer opportunity for a long flight over land, and the pilots are going to make strenuous effort to break the long distance record of l 200 miles and win the I.ahm cup. Besides this, the win ner of the race will receive the hand some silver tropay cup offered by the Antlers hotel of Colorado Springs.
 The race will be held under the aus pices of the Aero club of America and James w. Bemis, president of the Aero Club of St Louis will be the official starter.
