Roger Bresnahan used sixteen athletes in an effort to beat Chicago, but it was useless.

Boston. Mass., Oct. 4. Young Saylor
of Indianapolis put the kibosh on Bat
tang Nelson's ambition to "come back" in a fierce twelve-round battle here last night. Saylor earned the decision
he received, and but for the great stay
ing powers-of the Battler, a knockout
would have been the result.
Nelson opened up with his boring in
tactics and clinches. Saylor immedi
ately brought into play a spectacular
right hand wallop. With his shoulders
hunched, he would meet Nelson toe to toe, swing his right over on Bat's kid
neys, and like a flash, whip the same
hand back underneath and catch Nel
son in the stomach. This blow he used
repeatedly during the mill and it prov
ed the Battler's undoing.
A right nppercut that would bring
sleep to most figl tcrs was uncorked re
peatedly by Saylor. but the Battler re
fused to be knocked out. Saylor danc
ed all around Nelson and had the Bat
tler at sea most of the time.
The Indiana boy also showed a lefM
hook that was a stunner. It was like
the. kick of a mule, and it tore through
to Nelson's face repeatedly. The Battler was in distress throughout the bout. He showed his old staying quali
ties but not his former fighting vim
In the infighting, where the Battler is at his best, Saylor outfought him all
the way.
