WAS ON
To ROB CHAMP
Of HIS TITLE
Stout Said to Have Lost Nerve
in Recent Bout Between
Richie and WoIgast,
March lS.-Tbat Will

"HlCAGO. March 1S.-That Will
lie Richie is still lightweight
champion of the world is due
to the faint heart OF Harry Stout,
referee OF the recent Wolgast Richie
battle in Milwaukee. if rumors that
viii not down are TO be believed.
From Milwaukee to- DAY came the
story OF plot that was to have
robbed the champion of his laurels,
but just when it looked as though all
was ready for the killing. Stout lost
his nerve
Were the story that Of one person,
little weight would be given it, but
several prominent ChiCagoans tell the
yarn and it begins to look as though
there was something more than gos-
sip to it, As the story runs Wolgast
was TO go down from the first blow to
the stomach and claim foul and the
referee was to stop the match, call In
"A doctor, examine Wolgast and If any
signs of foul showed, the fight was
to be given to him on a foul.
IN order that there would be evil
dence OF foul when the physi-
clan examined Wolgast, il is claimed
the eX-Chsmpion received an inieC-
ton lust before the match which
brought about the same result as a
foul yet was devoid Of the pain from
such blow That Richie was not
stripped OF his title was due to Stout
getting cold feet at the last minute.
Conditions before and after the
match bear out the rumor. II is now
positively known that Wolgast lay
an. H.. ALI
fering from a bad pain in his left
hand, and that three doctors worked
on him for hours, relieving the pain
and reducing the swelling, He en-
tered the ring practically with the
use OF but one hand.
NET the day OF the fight Manager
Tom Jones was taking bets of all
kinds that Wolsast would win, bet
ting RnyR here from Sl00 To 81 600
Those who know Jones know he isn't
betting real money on any boomers.
Wolgsst went through with his claim
of foul when the first body punch was
delivered The referee wouldn't al
low the claim Later he said he didn't
hear Ads claim that IL he had heard
II he would have called in physi
cian to examine Wolgast When Al
returned to his dressing room after
the fight. he was examined by a ply
stefan. who declared the eN-Cham-
pion was fouled, and claimed the evil
denCe was there.

struck. yet not one would admit the |
blow was low Tom O'Rourke. Ed W |

Thirty, Harry Forbes. Johnny Coulon |
and several others declared the blow |
was fair The question then arises. |
How did the examining doctor ind |

that Ad was given an Injection
Usually when a man is fouled his |
lighting strength Is impaired and he |
hasn't the same snap and speed that |
he possessed just before the blow |

seemed TO be fresher after the blow !
