$1C0,CC0 Crowd Sees Challenger Give Champion a Great Fight in N. Y. NEW TOKK. Nov. :T. Th'y sent slim, game young Joe Wtlling out of his corner to crtain slaughter in the fourteenth round of the lightweight championship fight last, night. He had iived through the thirteenth round under fearful punishment at tha hands oj Benny Leonard, the Bronx Hebrew, who holds the title. His eyes were heavy with sleep, his nose and mouth were dripping blood, and his knees were knocking beneath him as the thirteenth closed and he staggered to his coiner. His seconds haarjy jammed a stool beneath his quivering body, threw water on him and then as the bell rang for the fourteenth pushed him to the center of the. ring. v f Leonard, dark browed, furious, the V.ack hair that they say Is rarely mussed in a fight tossing- damply about his face, rushed upon the helpUfs boy, swingiwg madly with both h.nds. Welling fell weakly, but got u;i again, tottering, bleeding. Haukop, the referee, followed the fighters as Welling stumbled backward, Leonard throwing both gloved hands, one after the other, to Wellin's bruised face and reddened body. Then Referee Stops It. A minute and seven seconds of this thing went on. Then Haukop, who had been staring wonderlngly into Welling's face, suddenly stepped between them and p'ished Leonard away to signify the fight was over. Why he did not atop it in the thirteenth is a mystery. Welling wss dow n half a dozen times, twice nearly falling out of the ring and hanging limply over the lower rope like a wet ra?, his head almoet on the press bench. Somehow he struggled to his feel. Sheer instinct prompted him to get up. There is bulldog in the blond Chicago boy. Around him rush'd Leonard, the slender, dark Hebrew. "now smashing
