KILBANE GIVES CKANEY KNOCKOUT
 IN THIRD ROUND

CEDAR POINT, O., Sept. 4.-In less than eight minutes of actual fighting Johnny Kilbanc of Cleveland spoiled the hopes of George Clancy Of Balti- more for the worlds featherweight championship today. A terrific right smash to Chaney's jaw settled the battle near the end Of the third round.
 The champions longer reach and greater defensive skill offset the spir- tied fight Chaney began with the sound of the first gong. The leads of the Baltimore lad were broken eas- fly for the most part by Kilbane and the champion earned an even break in the first two rounds by his clever defensive tactics.
 It was not until the third that Xii bane cut loose and then he did so with a vengeance.
 He rushed the challenger 10 the ropes with the opening of the round and drew blood with a left to Chan cy's face. Four times the men clinch- cd in the third and Chanoy tried by a vicious attack on the kidneys 60 weaken the champion. But Kilbane ran out easily from this attack and biding his time swung over Co the point of tic challcngor's chin a wall0p that spelled knockout and victory.

[. & A. TROUNCES ALL STARS 6 TO }
 IN il INNINGS
Labor Day Game at Warren Park Is First Extra Inning Game of Season-Is Full Of Thrills.

NanOsdoll, a newcomer from the coast, busted up a to 3 tie in the eleventh inning yesterday, and was carried home on the shoulders of the glee-mad fans, in the first extra inn ing game of the season.
 With one down and Lee on second base through an error by Pettij0hn. the coast importation smote the ball far into the center garden and the crowd never waited for Deardorff to find the ball.
 It was a see-saw game in which Old Man Cassidy went the nine innings for the All Stars, while Adkerson gave way to Landreth in the fifth, the two sharing about equal honors for the c. & A.
 No sooner had the All Stars chased Banks and Boat across the pan in the second inning, until the C. 6 A. ran in three in the third and took the lead away from them. Then Snyder and Deardorff put the All Stars back to first place with two more scores, mak- ing four to three.
 Pettijohn gained another for them in the seventh. however, and 1t looked like an All Star day for sure. But in the same inning Bidwell was driven in by Johnny Jeuck's three bagger, and Jordan evened the score in the last of the eighth. Thence on until the last of the eleventh both sides played as tight as a Jew pawnbroker. when Lee got a life on a bob5le by Pettijohn. Banks gathered the bObblc and in speeding it to first. heaved it high in the air and Lee went 10 sec ond But only for moment. for Van osdoll collided with Old Man Cassi- dy's first ball over, and the crowd went wild for the game was over.
 It is impossible on a Labor Day to compile" box scores, so the briefest mention Of the most worthy plays must suffice. E. Jeuck, in the All Stars left garden, stood on his head, eyebrows, and on his imagination at times. while he speared the most i'm possible of flies with a debOnair air that kept the crowd constantly in vo- ciferous admiration.
 John Galt for the C. &. A. speared Banks drive as it sailed for the cen ter field fence, a wild ball that seem ed plumb crazy in its mad flight.
 In the percentage column Banks with four hits out Of six times at bat was the bright particular star of the session,
 The lineups and the scores by inn ings are as follows:
