New York Spectators Stand on Chairs to Shout as the Champion and Challenger, Covered With Blood, Battlt Desperately in Arena at Garden.
PUGILISTIC NOTES. Lewis' gymnasium in Chicago yesterday was the rendezvous of a number of fighters who were training for future battles. Charley White, Jess Wlllard and Joe Mandot were among some of the millers who went through the usual training stunts. Wlllard showed a big improvement in his boxing since the last time he worked before the local fans. Jess stepped three rounds with Jack Ryan and looked to be In the best of shape. He has developed a better left hand, and Is punching straighter and harder with his right. Charley White is matched to meet "Kid" Kansas in Canton. O., on November 17, and on Thanksgiving day will box ten rounds with Johnny Dundee at New Orleans. The date for the long talked of White-Wolgast match wu set yesterday. These boxers will clash at Milwaukee on December S. The weight will be 133 pounds at 6 o'clock. Larney Lichtensteln, manager of "Young" Slnnet. the Rock Island bantam, yesterday stated a match between Slnnet and "Kid" Williams of Baltimore had been closed. The bout will be staged at Racine on November 21. The weight will be 118 pounds at S o'clock.
New York, Nov. 11. Willie Ritchie, lightweight champion, last night outpointed Leach Cross of New York in ten rounds of the fiercest milling ever seen in this city.
Roth men fought like wounded tigers from the tap of the gong and ; Ritchie only won through his showing ; in the third round and the last two
spells of whirlwind battling, during which he landed some terrific punches agairt the face and body of Cross. The tight was perhaps one of the bloodiest ever staged in New York.
one in which both men were covered j with blood to the wai9t from the J fourth round on and one so fast and furious that the spectators were on! their feet yelling like madmen during j every moment of the fighting. j The first and seventh rounds were i even. The second, fifth and eighth j went to Cross, while Ritchie won out in the third, fourth, sixth, ninth and j tenth, but only by slight margins, except In the third, when he scored two i clean knockdowns, one for the count i of nine, which was followed with an- I other for the count of three. In this third Ritchie sent Cross to the mat and he had barely got to his feet when the ' champion drove him against the ropes i and sent him to the mat again. The :
champion accomplished both tricks with lefts to Cross' Jaw. To some of the critics it looked as though Cross la going to the mat was executing a bit of his famous stalling. At that, the smashes Ritchie sent against his rival's jaw looked like they were powerful enough to fell an ox. Cross, however, showed wonderful recuperative powers after his second knockdown and rushed Ritchie wit hthe fury of a madman. In the fifth round Cross rai&ed a lump on Ritchie's head and half closed one of his eyes. He had the blood gushing from Ritchie's mouth and nose and backed him against the ropes repeatedly. The east side contingent here implored Cross to land the blow that would have brought the championship to New York, but Cross could not land his somnolence wallop. Both men began the final round as badly battered up as any men that ever swapped punches, and each made
a game, desperate effort, bringing every ounce of their strength into play. For half the round it seemed an even affair, but Ritchie's endurance powers won the round and the fight for him. Had Cross been able to stem the Ritchie on slaught in the final ninety seconds of the tenth round he almost would have earned a draw. The two knockdowns in the third session counted heavMv against him. Cross was first to the center of the ring and was followed a few seconds later by Ritchie. The Cross supporters gave their idol a rousing welcome and then accorded an equal ovation to Ritchie. The men weighed In at 9 o'clock last night. Ritchie scaled 1344 pounds and Cross 134. Ringside' weights were announced as Ritchie 137 and Cross 137. The crowd was something of a disappointment to the promoters. It was expected that the Garden would be filled to its capacity. The $1 gallery seats and the $10 ringside bdxwi were Jammed, but many of the intermediate priced seats were 'vacant when the fight began. It looked like an 8,000 crowd.
SNOW BALKS MICHIGAN SQUAD

foot of snow on the Ferry field gridiron, the Michigan eleven yesterday practice dslgnals In the clubhouse. The
