JACK COYNE finds
C0NQUEROR IN Leo c.
GRADY, POWNAL, VT,
Young Mcfarland Fails to Show
Up at City Hall Bouts Thurs
day Evening-The Main Bout
Proves a Stiff One

Slowly but surely worn out by a
steady rain of blows to the head, ribs
and stomach, but lighting gamely to
the last, Jack Coyne of Orange, n. j..
went down in defeat at City hall
Thursday night before Leo C. Grady
of Pownal, Vt, and in the presence Of
an audience which should, in view OF
the merits of the fight, have been
much larger. The bout had been ad :
vertised as between Coyne and Young
Mcfarland of Rochester, n. Y, but
owing to the fact that the latter was
not in condition on account of hav-
ing been defeated Monday evening at
Pittsfield Mass. by the Grady mem
toned above the latter boxer came
to Augusta as substitute and the
result of the fight shows that he made
good.
Grady demonstrated early in the
fight that he was Goynels master. and
in but one round, the second Of the
first bout, did Coyne show any indi-
cation of being Grady's equal. In all
the other rounds of the two sets OF
bouts Grady carried the fight 20
Coyne. forcing him around the ring
and beating him down with sue
cession of blows to the face. ribs and
stomach until in the fourth round OF
the second set Grady caught Coyne
with a left and right to the head that
left him tottering and helpless and the
fight was stopped and Grady, catching
the helpless lad in his arms, helped
him to his seat In the corner of the
ring.
Coyne fought a stiff though uphill
fight throughout the two bouts, ana
had 1t not been for his grit and abil-
ity to take punishment he would have
succumbed much earlier in the game.
He appeared slow in getting his hand7
up and to lack judgment regarding his
blows.
AS a semi final War Eagle of Lewis
ton and Young MCGEE of Gardner
held the boards and it took the War
Eagle but four rounds to reduce his
opponent to a condition which
prompted the management to stop the
bout. The first round was young NC
Gees by a good margin and he put
up clean and aggressive fight. but
in the second the War Eagle butted
him in the face with his head and
this dirty work seemed to take the
gimp out of the Gardiner lad and the
stopping of the bout in the fourth
round saved him from a knockout.
The curtain raiser was between
Freddie Samuels of Augusta and Kid
Conner of Lewiston and furnished
some of the liveliest work Of the eve
ming. Perhaps the lewiston young
ster may have had the hardest wal
lop but he didn't get a chance to do
much damage with it for his nut
brown antagonist was too lively anu
had a decision been given the bout
would have been good draw.
AS a dividing line between the main
bouts two sons of George Gilbert, the
undefeated champion of Sand Hill,
amused the crowd and incidentally
gathered in some coin by a lively
wrestling match. Promoter Hanks rel
creed his own bouts and had one Oh
the liveliest times of his life.

today served notice on the heads of
institutions supported by. the state
that over-drafts upon the state treas

Washington, Dec 17.-F1ve years
would be required to put the United
States navy in the highest state of
efficiency to meet hostile foreign fleet,
according TO statement made today
by Rear Admiral Fiske before the
House naval committee.
The admiral said that the navy now
was deficient in air craft. mines. scout
cruisers, torpedo boat destroyers, sub
marines and in number of trained Of
ficers and men, and had no mine
sweepers.
Members Of the committee were par
ticularly interested in Admiral Fiske's
views as to the possibility Of foreign
air craft dropping bombs upon Amer
lean cities. He expressed the opinion
that an attacking feet might begin
sending it's airshps on bomb-dropping
flights over New York from a range
of 500 or 900 miles off the coast.
One foreign navy, which was not
named the admiral said, was more
efficient tran the American fleet in
gunnery. This, he declared, was SO
only because the American marksmen
had not been given adequate opportu-
nifty for practice.

could get the navy UP to state of

PRES. WILSON AND SEC. GARRISON
CONFER ON MEXICAN SITUATION

The general belief in official quarters
tonight was that some satisfactory I'M
Outstanding would be reached which
would make unnecessary any hostilities.
While the reports from Gen. Bliss to
the war department were not made pub
lie, 1t is believed they Indicated that he
thought he had persuaded Gen. Maytore-
ma to stop firing into the United States.
Until there is a definite understanding
of the whole situation it is thought Gen.
Bliss has warned Gen. Hill not to take
the offensive, which would draw the fire
of Gen. Maytorena's troops.
Gen. Iturbides friends in Mexico are
fearful for his safety and Secretary Bry.
an today directed Consul Silliman in the
Mexican capital to make urgent repre-
sensations in his behalf. Iturbide is said
to have been imprisoned.
