BRENNAN WINS
italian Joe" Cans Proves No Match
for Buffalo Fighter at Olympia.

lot buIIdlO Fighter Ut OlyluplHs
"IS. o." Brennan, OF Buffalo. proved
too much for italian Joe" Cans. OF New
York city, in the final bout at the olympia
A. a. show last night. Brennan weighed
1856 pounds while Cans tipped the beam
at 15Ols pounds, Cans showing was by
no means up to the expectations of the
crowd, who saw him in action at this club
before. II was expected that he would
give the Buffalo boy good argument,
but he lacked the skill necessary, and In
only one round, the fifth, did he any
where near come up TO expectations. In
that round he used his left with such
good effect that he had Brennan bleeding
at the mouth, but his effort did not last
long and the Buffalo lad again soon had
him measured" From the start Bren-
nan forced the fighting, and In the first
round ii looked as though he would end
the battle with a decisive blow, but Cans
was too sturdy and managed to stand.
Throughout the bout, except in the tifth
round. Cans kept covered protecting his
jaws.
Battling" Lain, Of New York. weigh
ing 1l7A pounds, upheld his reputation
as a great slugEer by completely out
chasing Neil McCue, scaling 1l6 pounds.
Referee OBrien stopped the bout in the
fourth round after McCue had received a
deep cash on the lip which required three
stitches to sew up. Johnny" Keyes, OF
New York, wns no match for Young"
Diggins Of this city, and the bout was
stopped in the second round.
The best bout of the evening was be-
tween "Joe" Phillips, of this city, and
Young" Fulton, Of New York, in which
the local boy outfought and outslugged
the visitor in every round. In the open
ing bout Tommy" Buck, OF this city, de-
fcated Frankie Mccoy of Ireland, in a
baut which went the limit.
1t was announced last night at the
Olympia that Jack" Dillon, of Indanap-
oils, had been secured TO meet Young
Charlie" Weinart, OF Newark In the
wiHd-up Of next Monday nights show.
