JOE TURNER DEFENDS
HIS TITLE ON MAT
Beats Pinky Gardner for World Mid
dle-weight Championship at
at Lyceum Theater.

Shortly after 10 o'clock last night, two
gladiators in the pink Of condition locked
horns in the middle-weight champion
ship wrestling bout, at the Lyceum Thea
ter, and for one hour and twenty-five
minutes three thousand fans present, were
rewarded with the sensational styles of
the mat game. At the end of this period,
Joe Turner, the native son, and middle
weight title holder of the world, gained
the first technical fall, as he obtained an
arm chansellor and a leg scissor, which
compelled his worthy opponent ''PinBy'
Gardner to give up when the king of
the middle-weight class pressed the tiu
jitsu end of this hold.
Coming bask after fifteen minutes rest,
the defeated athlete gave the fans every
thing he had in him but after thirty
seven minutes Of rapid fire work, Turner
succeeded in obtaining this same hold on
Gardners injured member and Il was
only a question Of how long the sturdy
visitor could Withstand the pressure.
Nearly 1900 local graphing fans crowd
ed into the old Pennsylvania Avenue
playhouse and the cheers that rang forth
when either would demonstrate their abfl-
ity, eched blocks away. It was the larg-
est crowd that has ever attended a wrest-
ling bout in this city. After the bout when
w. c. Weber, the representive Of the
Police Gazette, buckled the belt on
Turner, Gardner admitted that he had
met better man but told the audience
that he gave them all he had in him.
Tony Masstmo was at the ring side and
challenged the winner. Both grapplers
weighed in at the ring side, the local.
boy making 155 81 pounds, and Gardner

Winning for Indians.

Cleveland, Ohio. Sept. 2o.-JoeD Boehling
played low-down trick on his former
shipmates, the Nationals, this afternoon,
in the second battle Of the series at Dunn
Field by wheeling the InJuns to a 3-to-3
victory which bowled Grirrs upstairs
back into their old resting spot, seventh
place. The blond Virginian allowed six
blows and issued seven passes in his duel
with boo Ayers. bVt two costly wild
heaves by Ray Morgan played hob with
the N. DIS chances for a triumph.
The game turned in by Boehling was by
Tar the best the former Griffmen has
pitched since he donned the Injun regi-
mentals. Wamby. like his short-stopping
rival, also booted couple, but only one
OF his misplays figured in the run-mak-
ing.
The Nationals took a flying start by
rushing over their first run in the second
inning as the result OF a terrific two-play
Wallop by Elmer Smith. The Injun dis
card blew open the period with a liner
which was headed for the flag pole in
center field. but Graney overhauled the
pill after a desperate run and held the
smash to a double. Shanks sacrificed and
Judge drew the first of a series Of three
walks. Morgan tackled on a long fly
which Roth speared of the right field
wall and Smittie scored after the catch.
Judge fell stealing, Deberry to Turner.
Wamby's tumble OF Fosters grounder
paved the way for another Washington
run in the fourth. Milan sacrificed,
Gandil knocked down Smiths single, then
went after Shanks' bunt sqeeze, which
was perfectly executed, enabling Foster
to register as Shanks was being turned
back. Judge and Morgan walked plug
ging the paths, but the stuff was on
when Williams slashed to wamby fore
ing Morgan.
Cleveland got busy In the fifth and
pushed over one marker when with two
down Deberry strolled, BoehlinE singled
to centre, and Graney walked, filling the
route. Barbara was safe on Morgan q
high throw and Deberry Tailed. Graney
ran past second and when he was being
chased down Boehling raced for the plate
only to be nailed, Judge to Foster to
Williams
The locals added two In their seventh

gled to third. Deberry forced Turner and
Gandil scored. Allison ran for Deberry
and after Boehling's infield out, Graney

to meet the demand Of the horsemen who
will patronize the annual October session

by General Manager Winn for the &C
commodation OF at least 100 head at the
livery stables in Laurel and the barns
nearby.
The cards at Laurel this fall will be
comprised Of seven races instead of six,
as was the rule last fall. and the fact
that no purse will be less than 800 is
naturally very gratifying to the horse

for the early part Of the meeting. He

Another startling upset Of dope" oc-
CURED on the Dumbarton Clubs courts
yesterday afternoon in the District OF
Columbia tennis championship tourney,
when Dudley D. Morgan, winner OF the
recent Columbia Country Club event. was
eliminated In the semf-nnal round Of the
mems singles by John z. Graves, Jr.
Morgan was generally picked to be an
easy winner, and his defeat came as
distinct surprise.
Graves has been playing a good game
Of late. but no one thought he was Nor
gan's superior When the latter took
the opening set, -, no one was sur
prised, but soon after the start Of the
second set things began to get interest
ing. Morgan took the first game, and
then lost five straight. Three wins for
htrn made It 81 but he lost the next,
which gave Graves that set, 50 Graves
took the first two games OF the third
and deciding set, but Morgan soon even
ed the count and at the eighth game
was leading, 5-3 In the ninth game he
was at set-point, but could not land It,
Graves finally catching him by a bril-
Rant rally and then beating him out at
-
Throughout the match Graves superior
steadiness was an outstanding feature.
His service, too, was better than Nor
gan's, as the latter double-faulted re-
charged against him An idea as to Just
how close the match was may be gained
from the fact that Graves scored but one
more point thanBMorgan in the three
sets, getting 112 to the Iatter's Ill. while
IN the last set ne scored A points to Nor
gan's q The card for the match was:

Killing the Direct Primary.

New York State has a primary law
somewhat the same, although not so
bad, as the one in Kentucky, and it
has heretofore done so much harm
that the people are starting out to get
rid of it without repeating it.
Under all New York law all nomi-
nations must be made at primaries
and nominations made at conventions
do not entitle a man to get his name
on the ballot. But the right of as
semblage still exists. The New York
Democrats have just held a State con-
vention. At that convention various
names were considered for the office
of Governor and the roll was called
and it was ascertained that a large
majority favored the nomination of
Judge Samuel Seabury.
Nor did the convention stop there.
1t appears that Judge Seabury may
