BULLETINS OF

Between 300 and 400 people surged
over Water street Saturday night and
cheered the bulletins of the Willard
and Moran fight as posted by the Jour
nal. The crush finally became so great
that the services OF officer Corbett
were called upon to prevent the fore
most Of. the throng being pushed
through the big plate glass window
where the returns were shown.
No election or baseball game ever
before called such 4 crowd of specta =
tors. Those in the back rows were
forced to rely upon the word passed
back from the forward ranks. as the$
We're too far away to read. Some dis
appointment was expressed over
Moran's showing but the general opin-
ion was "a good fight"
The service was perfect as the direct
wire to the ringside allowed the story
of each complete round, telling the
blows landed. to be placed in the WIN
dow within 80 seconds after the close
Of the round The excitement at the
ringside could not have been much
greater. Some wagers are known to
have been made after the first two or
three bulletins-usually upon whether
Moran would last ont the 10 rounds.
