NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-Iiger
Flowers. Negro, who is a deacon of
Baptist church down In Georgia
and who works ut II. Is the new mid
dleweight boxing champion OF the
world.
The deacon outcufred and out
slapped Harry Greb enough In Tex
Richards garden Friday night to
win the decision OF two Judges and
to take away the title from the faded
Pittsburgh windmill" II was Il
fiftoen-round bout.
The referee, Gunboat Smith, voted
for Greb and a good many OF the
big crowd thought that Flowers did
not have enough of a margin to war
rant a change In the title. but there
was little complaining about II.
Even the boys who had bet three
to one on Greb, turned against him,
becaI..,e OF the foul tactics he used
all during the bout and II was his
unclean style that may have turned
the judges against him.
Flowers Is the first Negro ever 70
hold the middleweight championship
and the first fighter Of his color to
win any title since jack Johnson
defeated jim Jeffr1es for the heavy
weight championship.
There were 1871 paid admissions
and the receipts were s105,1S4.7O, of
which Greb's share was 37a per
cent.

CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-Under the
leadership Of wheat, all grains adj
vanced In price on the Chicago Board

The wheat market was errztic,
fuctuattng rapidly up and down, but
the undertone was firm throughout
the short weekend session and
prices closed at good advances over
yesterdays finish. Chief bullish In
fuepce seemed to be from private
estimates OF the amount Of wheat
on the farms which showed sharp
decreaSes. Buying became general
IN the last few minutes OF trading
and prices leaped to a close Of 2 to
SIS cents above Fridays finish.
Corn borrowed most Of it's strength
from wheat and had some strength
of its own In the form Of a firm cash
market. Prices finished &c to 1c
higher than yesterday.
Oats trading confined dull prices
going upward uniformly nc in sym
pathy with the upswing in wheat.
Provisions closed higher, with
grains and hogs.
