KNOCKED
OUT CHAMPION

New Orleans. Aug. 19.-Jack Hammer,
who promoted the recent Welsh Wolgast
bout in Denver, is here and says, regard
ing that battle. that it was a case of
Knockout instead of a foul, and that
Wolgast by rights is today the light
weight champion of the world. He says
that doctor examined Welsh and said
there was no evidence of a foul blow.
kanner also says that the big crowd
that saw the contest clamOred for a
decision for Wolgast and refused to be-
heve the story of foul. AS evidence
of that sort of sentiment, Kanner says
that if Wolgast and Welsh were billed
for rival bouts on~the same street in Dem
yer, Wolgast would outdraw the cham
pion 10 to l right away.
Instead of there beng any sentiment
against Wolgast in Denver, kanner says,
he is the most popular boxer who ever
fought there. and that the best evidence
.of 1t is found in the fact that he Is being
invited back for other bouts this fall.
and undoubtedly will battle there again

Chester Club WithdraWs.

Chester, Pa. Aug. 19.-The Chester
Club management has decided to with
draw from the Delaware County Base
ball League, and that club will not play
the game scheduled for today with the
Paschan team. Financial reasons and
lack of support are given for this ac-
ton, and 1t is said that Paschall will
also drop out. there being no possible
chance for these two clubs overtaking
the leaders for the pennant. This will
leave the contest to the Upland Brill,
Media and Clifton teams,
