Johnson, Miller Jersey City, Sept. 6.—The justly celebrated world's middleweight championship is still in two sections. As a result of twelve rounds of ludi- crous attembpts at fighting in Boyle's Thirty Acres in Jersey City yester- day afternoon by Johnny Wilson of Boston and William Bryan Downey of Columbus, Wilson still holds fifty per cent of the titular honors, while the remaining fifty per cent is in possession of the Ohioan. There was only one chance of the title being gained by one of these spectacular ringsters, and that was by a knockout. Far from either of the men being stopped, there was not anything that even approached a knock down. It was the most ab- surd performance ever staged in this part of the country by alleged cham- plons, and there is doubt that either ever again will be asked to box in this vicinity even as a ten dollar pre- liminary fighter. As indicating the general disgust over the performance of Wilson es- pecially, the New Jersey boxing com- mission immediately after the bout instructed Announcer Joe Humphreys to Inform the spectators that Tex Rickard was ordered to withhold Wil- son's shars of the purse pending an investigation into his performance in the ring. This action evidently was due to the iact that the members of the present commission never had seen Wilson in action before and were DOWNEY BEATS WILSON IN AN UNSATISFACTORY BOUT unaware how boxer he was. McTigue Beats Gans. After the leading lights had left the rig, Mike McTigue and Panama Joe Gans took the rostrum to settle a little argument over the twelve round route. McTigue had all the better of his ebony opponent, and there looked like a winder by a knockout. But Gans could take it and weather the storm. E McTigue took six rounds by clear margins, while Gans scored over the Gael in four, while two rounds were evenly fought. If Gans had been able to keep up the pace which he set in the first three rounds McTigue would have been beaten. But the negro could not stand the gait and soon slipped back as McTigue ral- lied. lamentably poor a Buff Beats Russell. The next pair were Johnny Buff of Jersey Cit the flyweight cham- pion of America, and Indian Russell of Harrisburg, Pa. Russell had been vigorous contestant to Buffs titu- lar claim, but this was the first op- portunity to show his merits for the championship. It proved a one-sided affair, Rur- sell being shown up as a novice against a finished boxer and effective hitter. Russell had only one qualifica- tion, and that was assimilation of punishment. The Harrisburg boy re- ceived a terrific drubbing until the fifth, when he was knocked out. BASEBALL IN AMERIOAN LEAGUE. Results Yesterday.

Annex MORLEY WINS AGA Hartford Boy Has No Trouble Beating Californian at Holyoke. Holyoke, Mass., Sept. 6.—The ad- vertised star ten-round bout between Mike Morley of Hartford and Sammy Good, all the way from California, fail- ed to create much enthusiasm at the American Legion bouts last night. The semi-final between Roche and Winters proved the feature. Roche being given the decision in ten rounds. Morley was awarded the decision over Good, winning with ease. The pair couldn’t seem to stir up more than a few handclaps. Good was on the defen- sive most of the time. He went in with his head down and covered and Morley couldn’t-do much with him. Good fail- ed to open up to any extent and the Hartford boy easily outpointed the coast visitor. WALTER COX WINS 60,000 Racing Fans on Hand for| Labor Day Events - | (By John C. Neenan.) About fifty thousand people attend- ed the Connecticut fair and grand cir- cuit races at Charter Oak park yes- terday. Three races were on the card, tha feature event being the first division of the Greater Charter Oak pursa for $5,000. In this race eight horses answered the bell and got the word on thae sixth score. Jana tha Great, from the Lau- rel Hall farm, Indianapolis, Ind., with Walter Cox up behind her, won tha first heat but only after a terrifie stretch drive with Emma Harvester, and Pitmann's mare forced Jane the Great to a new record of 2:05%. In order to capture the second heat and racc under the two and three heat system of racing, Mr. Cox had to step Jane the Great back in this heat in 2:05% as Emma Harvester carried the fight to her right to the wire and the Harvester mare only beat Lockspur a head for place. Emma Harvester was the winner in the third heat, she stood a long hard drive through the home stretch and beat \Walnut Fricco in 614 with Mainlich third, and Jane the Great, fourth. The Free-for-all pace for a purse of $4,000 had four starters and was won by Sanardo, 2:00% in three straight heats. John Henry, 2:01%, challeng- ed Sanardo in the stretch drive to the wire in the first heat, but Murphy let Sanardo have his head at the 80-yard mark and he got the decision from John Henry; time 2:04 1. Juno, 2:021 also a member of the Murphy stable, but driven by Walter Cox, was third. In the second round, both Juno and John Henry tried o reach Sanardo coming to the wire, but Sanardo stopped them with a mile in 2:03% and won the deciding heat from John Henry and Ethel Chimes in 2:04%. It is a matter of regret that Frisco June. 2:01%, was shut out in the first heat o this race in which he made a bad break as he is the only horse that made Single G, 1:59, extend himself. The great threc-year-old trotter Favorina, 2:06%, won the event for three-zear old trotters in 2:08% and 2:09, after losing the first heat to Sil- vie Brooke in 2:081. He dcfeated not only Silvie Brooke, but the New York filly in a heat at Boston last week in 2:07%. and the Laurel Hall that was second This race was to furnish a line on the form on these younzsters as all are expected to start in tne Lexington, Ky.
