RICHIE WINS TITLE FROM WOLCAST Champion Fouls Twice in Sixteenth and Referee Awards De-
 cision to Opponent -Wolgast Almost Out When Deci-
 sion Conzes-Rivers Defeats Mandot

outpointed Battling Nelson in a ten round bout here today. Nelson took a great deal of punishment, but was forcing the fighting at the finish.
 Cross weighed 13S pounds at the ringside and Nelson was four ounces heavier. Cross started in with left jabs to the face and sent right and lefts in quick succession to the head. The Battler was outclassed, but managed left. and had Cross crouching at the end of the initial. round.
 It was all Cross in the second with hooks up and uppercuts, but Nelson sent in a left which discolored Cross right eye Nelson took lot of punish ment in the next two rounds, but sur prised everyone, Cross in particular, by boring right in for the body with weak blows which did no damage. Three terrific left hooks to the jaw shook Nelson up in the fourth ses- sion, but he was game and refused to back away an inch.
 Nelson bled from the nose and mouth in the fifth and was wild in his swings, but the pace was telling on Cross, while Nelson did not show any signs of weariness and at the end of the seventh round was forcing Cross all over the ring. A rlSnt uppefcuI ana d right and left swing dazed Nelson in the eighth, but he was right on top of his man, not needing the rain of blows which were falling on him.
 Nelson got to Cross body in the ninth, but had to take a score of hooks on the head and a hard right clip on the jaw in return. The Dane tried to get in a good punch, but fell short and his left caught the referee, Young Cor bett, on the ear. Nelson's willingness against sure defeat was remarkable, and he actually made Cross back up, forcing him from corner to corner un- til the final bell It was a wonderful showing on Nelsen's part, and Cross did not gain any lanrels by outpOinting him.

 In the previous bouts held in T. A. B. hall by the same management there was considerable dissatisfaction as to the manner in which the show was run, and Thursdays mess was well calculated to disgust the most ardent fan.

No player in eastern ranks has been able to keep up with Thorpe and the husky redskin now has a record of IS touch downs, not to mention five goals from the field. Altogether Thorpe has scored better than one-third of the points credited to his team this season.

PENN DEFEATS CORNELL,
Captain Mercer Scores Only Touch down on 55-Yard Run-safety Gives Cornell 2 Points.


 Philadelphia, Nov. 2S-Pennsylvania added another victory to her long string of successes over the Cornell football team by winning the Thanks giving day game on Franklin field to- day by the score of to ?. It had been showing for almost ten hours be- fore the game began and the field was soaked from the slush, causing both teams to huff or tumble the slippery ball frequently. This condition of the field was indirectly responsible for all the scoring.
 Slid Across Goal Line.
 It had been a bunting game all through the first period and the ball was on Pennsylvanias twenty yard line when Minds attempted to punt. J. Whyte broke through the Pennsylva- nia line and blocked the kick. Minds and Whyte ran after the ball and the Pennsylvania man fell on it one yard from his own goal line, but before he could recover himself he slid in the mud across the goal and Referee Langford declared a safety in favor of Cornell
 Pennsylvania's touchdown came un- expectedly near the end of the second period. Cornell had the ball in mid field as the result of a punt Bennett, who had gone into the game at right halfback for Cornell, replacing Fritz. fumbled, and Captain Mercer of Penn sylvania caught 1t on the rebound. He was 55 yards from CornelIs goal with 8 clear field and dashing down the field. outrunning CornelHs fleetest men, he made an easy touchdown.
 Because of the wet field the game resolved itself into a kicking contest in which Butler of Cornell invariably had the better of Minds. Even with the wind against him, Buffers kick usually gained ground on the Penn sylvanians.
 Rushing Unsuccessful.
 Neither team was able to advance consistently by rushing except in sev- eral instances when the man carrying the, ball broke through for a ten yard gain. But few first downs were made by either team
 A prominent feature of the game was the speed of Cornelps ends in getting down under kicks. They were always on the man about to ceatch the ball and Pennsylvania gained very little ground through running the ball back after puntss The lineup:

Washington.-Pres Taft on
Monday replied to President Gomez s
telegram of Sunday regarding the at

Cuba. He declared the American gov
ernment's activities in mobllizing war
vessels at Key West and dispatching
the Prairie with marines to Guantan-
amo was not in any sense an inter-
vention move. He cabled:
Il am sincerely gratified to learn Of
your governments energetic meas
ures to put down the disturbances and
to know that you are confident of be-
ing successful.
"As was fully explained to the Gu
ban charge d'affaires here, the Ameri-
can governments motive in sending
ships to Key West, Just as in send
ing the Prairie to the Guantanamo
naval station, was merely to be able
to act promptly in case it should un-
fortunately become necessary to pro.
tect American life ana property oy
lending moral support or assistance to
the Cuban government.
"As was made clear at the time
these ordinary measures of precaution
were entirely disassoclated from any
question of intervention.

tualities and also in event that the
