New Orleans, La., March 7. Johnny Coulon, the cyclone 'of Chicago, was again successful yesterday afternoon In his twenty round fight with Jim Kenrick, the British bantamweight, before the West Side Athletic club. The result was practically a knockout in
the nineteenth round, for after taking the count of nine twice the game Eng
lishman tried to face and music and
staggered against the ropes unable to
resist and almost blind from closed eyes and chopped face. Referee Wallace Wood stepped In before Coulon could
put In the final punch and the fight was given to the Chicagoan.' Kenrick was too groggy to stand and a tap would have put him to sleep so popularly speaking, the fight was a knockout, Coulon was given an ovation by the crowd, which was the largest which has witnessed a mill here since the Corbett-Sulllvan match. He was carried on the shoulders of his backers from the ringside to his dressing room and his father and backer, who had won Dave Filler's $1,000 bet on Kenrick, covered his face with kisses amid the deafening cheers, of the spectators.
Kenrick shook hands with the victor
and confessed that he had met his mas
ter in ring generalship. The crowd
cheered the Britisher for his game
nesg and hundreds pressed to ite ring
side to shake his hands.
Old timers said It was the fastest fight they had ever seen and equal to anything the big fellows ever put up in their championship battles at New
Orleans. Sports were here from all over the country, and among the spectators were many Englishhmen, who cheered on their cdrrhtryman. Up to the fifteenth round it was give and take, Coulon fighting hard and fast all the time. Kenrick gave blow for blow with as much speed as the champion, but the steam was not there. Kenrick was unable to stop the lnfightinng of Coulonr Although he

showed marvelous recuperative powers, even In the nineteenth, when It looked
as though he was all In, Coulon beat his antagonist down with a perfect rain of blows which grew stronger and more steamy as the fight progressed. From the first he played for the stomach and the wind and It was the series of heavy body Jolts which won him the contest. Both were clever duckers, and that Coulon came off without a scratch" was due to his skill in evading Kenrick's swings, which were often vicious.
Kenrick's face looked as If he had
been up against a buzz saw. Both eyes
were almost closed and his Hps were puffed. Blood flowed from his face at the end of every round after the -.f-
teenth, and at the end of the seven teenth he was a badly battered speel men. In the seventeenth Coulon landed i
right swing to the point of the jaw and
only the bell saved Kenrick from a
knockout. Referee Woods was on the
count of nine when the bell was rung
and the Englishman had to be carried to his corner. It looked as If he would not come back, but after vigorous treatment he stepped gamely to the front
and mixed It in a lively manner. He surprised the crowd by his fast comebacks and managed to keep on his feet
throughout the round.
The nineteenth started fast and the men who had bet even money Kenrick would stay to the end thought they would win. The odds placed were 2
to 1 for a. decision no bettlnar ork
knockout being made. Kenrick tried to fight, but in the first minute Coulon placed a swing to the Jaw. He rolled over on his back and took nine. As he got up Coulon landed another to Jaw and theuEngllshman went down again. He took nine, but as Coulon stood over him to prevent his rising and was abopt to end It all the referee held up his glove and prevented the last blow. Kenrick staggered against the ropes, unable to raise his arms.

Ad Wolgast, champion of the lightweights, will arrive in Chicago this morning with his manager, Tom Jones.

Then he will return to Kansas City, where he opens up his theatrical venture on the vaudeville stage.

In the meantime dozens of boxers who have their eyes on the lightweight throne are hurling challenges at Wolgast. Which of the many he will accommodate first is a dark mystery.
