EICHEL FLOORS MUM

HIS; NILSIO S10P HIM Six Knockdowns in Final Se ssion; Kansas City Scrapper Goes Through the Ropes Twice in Six Rounds at Pittsburg.

Jeffries in Three Sets of Exercise to Regain Condition

Pittsburg, Pa., May 19. Stanley i Ketchel lat night failed to knock out Hugh McGann of Kansas City in six rounds before the Xational Athletic club. Ten times in the fight was McGann down for a part of the count, but Ketchel could not find the vulnerable spot. The sixth and last round was one of the most bitter periods ever witnessed in a prize ring in Pittsburg. Like a demon Ketchel was all over McGann, trying madly to put him out. Six times did he knock him down, once sending him clear through the ropes and into the audience, but McGann came back with a smile before the count of ten was up. This was the second time in the fight that McGann was knocked through the ropes and off the stage, and after the

fight he said he was hurt more bumping the chairs outside the ring than by the blows of the man who is matched to fight Jack Johnson. That Ketchel's blows lacked steam or he could not place them right was evident: The knockdowns which he ad

ministered to McGann were all clean blows, as McGann did not seem to avoid punishment by falling. Ketchel was so angry at the end of the fight at his failure to put McGann out. that he shook hands with him with but poor grace. The audience was much with McGann after he had come up from his sixth knockdown, and cheered him wildly. McGann started very fast, and for the first two rounds had things his own

way, Ketchel not appearing to get

warmed up. After he had received

some hard blows In the face, however

Ketchel limbered up, and by the open

ing of the fourth round was fighting

hard. He knocked McGann down twice

for the count of nine, but could not end

the fight.

In the fifth he knocked him down

twice more, but McGann declined to stay

down.

In the sixth Ketchel went at the Kansas City man like a demon, but could

not finish him.

The largest crowd that ever saw a

fight here was present.

Struck By Train. Frank Mullen, 25 ears old, was seri

He was walking down the tracks

The boxing contests In West Ham

mond tonight will be witnessed by one of the largest crowds that has ever

seen a similar event in the village across the line.

The principals will be Clarence Eng

lish and Jack Drumgoole. English

claims the welter-weight championship of the Pacific coast, and Jack Drum

goole is a shifty Chicago Heights boxer who is believed to have a future ahead of him.

This bout should be one of the best that has ever been seen In "West Hammond. Probably one of the most interesting features of this battle tonight is that Clarence English, the Pacific

coast champion, will fight Jimmy Clab-

by, the middle western champion, for the championship of the west and a purse of $1,000, at some time in the near future. This makes the approaching contest between English and Drumgoole an interesting one. The local admirers of Clabby will be able to get a line on the Pacific coast fighter and will find

out how he will stack up against their

favorite. Malachy Hogan will referee. There will be a couple of good pre

liminaries this evening. One will be

the semi-windup, between Kid Lavin of South Chicago and Kid Homnland of

Chicago, and the first preliminary will

be between Kid Henry of South Chi

cago and Kid Jean of Chicago Heights

As all of the fighters in the prelimi

naries have taken the name "kid" they must surely be about the toughest pugs that come down the pike. The right to take the name "kid" being only gained

by a superlative degree of toughness,

But no matter what the fighters in

the preliminaries do, the main even

will be a hummer and will positively

be pulled off without any of the delays

that have made other contests a bore

to the average fan.

It Is understood that there will be between 100 and 150 .fight fans from

Chicago, between 150 and 200 from Chi

cago Heights, a number from Benton

Harbor, and scores from the cities o

Hammond, Whiting, East Chicago and

Gary.

The boxing contests will be held in

Mika's hall, before the Columbia Athletic club, and are scheduled to begin promptly at 8:30 instead of 10:30, as Is usually the case.

MARATHON STARS

WILL RACE IN CHICAGO MAY 29 Chicago will see all of the famous

Marathon runners in action at the end of next week, a deal being closed last

night for a $10,000 Marathon run at the White Sox park Saturday, May 29. James J. Callahan and Lou House

man, who are promoting the event, last night were informed that Charles Harvey, the New York Marathon impresario, has signed John Hayes, Dorando Pietrl and Svanberg for the race and that he expected to get the signatures of Henri St. Yves and Tom Longboat this morning. Svanberg is already here with his trainer, Ernest Hjertberg. He will start training this morning out at Callahan's park and looks in good shape now. Both Cubs and Sox will be out of the city the day of the race and the promoters will have a clear field. A running path will be constructed around the outfield, finishing close to the grand stand.

Hammond Pug Injures His Shoulder; Quill Gets the Decision.

Boston, Mass., May 19. Jimmy Clabby, the Hammond welter-weight, was beaten in twelve rounds at the Armory Athletic club last night by Tommy Quill of Brockton. Clabby was a strong favorite, and appeared in a fair way to make good, un-

The work of elevating the tracks of the Lake Shore and Pennsylvania railroads is progressing rapidly. New oement sidewalks are being constructed all along Buffalo avenue from Eighty-second to Eighty-third street. Chief of Police Shippy took personal charge yesterday in a search for four men, who are collecting hundreds of dollars by fraudulent methods In the red light district of the south side and South Chicago. The men represent themselves to be agents from the County Democracy and show letters of introduction, with the names of prominent democrats signed to them. The city council license committee was at the north end all day yesterday inspecting the site for the new amusement park, which, it is said, will be built very soon. Alderman J. H. Jones was on hand to greet the committee, and a large delegation of citizens were also there and protested against the location of a Coney Island in the quiet suburb.

the bout had to do the greater part of his work with his left. Several times toward the end Clabby made desperate efforts to use his injured hand, but the pain was too intense. Even handicapped as he was, the Hammond man showed the class of the pair.

by a vote of 40 to 34 ordered the bill to engrossment. The amendment to Brew Bill 380 A. which is the measure to legalize boxing contests, was adopted. By a vote of 33 to 40 the assembly

refused to kill the bill, and it was ordered engrossed. The Brew boxing bill as amended permits thirty minutes of fighting or ten rounds of three minutes' duration. It also provides that all clubs giving boxing bouts shall take out a license, and that no purse shall be given the boxers.

ONE LOVELY SMASH

Philadelphia, May 19. Hagerman, the Cub recruit, by his magnificent pitching, and Schulte, with a terrific drive over the right field wall, won yesterday's game between the Cubs and Phillies, and gave the champs their third straight victory over the Murray men by the score of 3 to 2. But for accidents, a slight slip by Tinker, Hagerman would have scored a clean shutout, but as it was the Cubs were forced on to the defensive toward the finish of the game and compelled to battle desperately to cling to their lead of one run. A grand bit of field

ing by Tinker, which retired the twenty-seventh Phllly and ended the struggle, saved a tie as a runner was on third waiting to score, scooped what looked like a base hit and retired the last man. annihilating the Quakers.

MAROONS WALK OVER PURPLE Northwestern Trimmed, 8 to
