THE NEW LONDON| London, May 24—Sam Langford, th colored heavyweight, of Boston, knock- ed out lan Hague, the heavyweight champion, of England, in the fourth round at the Nac! Sporting club Lere tonight. The fight, which was for a purse of $9,000, was scheduled to go twenty round: Langford was at a disadvantage as regards weight, height and reach, but his superior knowledge of ring tactics and his quickness overcame this, and what was expected to be a long contest proved to be a very brief one. Closed the Black Man's Eye. Langford had a shade the better of the first round until the end, when Hague reachied him with a hook to the jaw. This seemed to encourage the ritisher and though mo damage was done in the second round he showed more cleverness than the colored man, Langford opened the third round with @ hard left to the face and he used this blow effectively several times before the gong sounded. Hague, however, partially closed the American’s eye with a hard right swing. The men came together in ® fast mixup at the opening of the fourth, and Langford put a terrific right on the Yorkshiremaa's chin which ended the contest, A record crowd saw the fighft and the American was a warm favorite, considerable money being bet at 20 to 1 and 50 to 2 on him to win. Bantamweights Go to a Draw. The bout between Jimmy Walsh, the American fighter, end Digger Stanle: of London for the bantamweight championship of England was declared a draw. The fightiwent the full ffteen rounds, The purse was $1,750. ‘WOOD’S MARATHON. Montreal Runner Wins at Home Track ~—Time Beats Marsh by 47 Seconds. Montreal, May 24.—Wood of Mon- treal won the professional Marathon here today in 2.39. Fourteen started in the race and six finished. Billy Sherring, winner of the Olympic Mara- thon in 1906, gave up in the nineteenth mile, complaining of severe cramps in his stomach. Holmer of Halifax fin- ished second to Wood, nearly a lap be- hind, while the French pair, Orphee and Cibot, who won the six day race in New York, finished third and fourth respectively. Fred Meadows of On- tario was fifth. Pat Dineen of Boston stopped when the crowd broke on the track under the impression that he had finished, ‘otherwise he would have taken third money. The time for the race beats the previous best time, made at To- st by John D. Marsh, by 47 sec- onds.

Backer Larowe, who opened tie sea- son as catcher for the Andem baseball club of North Grosevnordale, has been released. Mr, Larowe is a veteran in the game. His place is given to a much younger man who resides in North Grosvenordale; his name is Al- ma Blanchette, but members of the club call him “Pete,” after his brother. the one-legged cutcher, who was Breat attraction for the club in hi day. His y friends wish him e ery succes: George Johnson, the crack third sacker, s about to leave the Andems, Mr. McManus, the manager of the Sla- ter A C., Webster, Mass, is right after Johnson with a big hook and line, and the big bait on the -hook is very tempting. Johnson has all the earmarks of a comer; he will surely meet with great success with the Webster fans. W.

Hi' Henry has_the reputdtion of hav- ing fourteen strike outs and allowing 3 hits against the Norwich-Tattvilles, the champions of the league.

INCIPIENT CROP SCARE HAMPERED SPECULATION. Net Prices Little Changed at Close of Day’s Business, New York, May 24—The specula- tive movement in stocks was hampered today by the appearance of an incip- jent crop seare of moderate pronor- tions. The character of some of the assertions made by professional crop experts regarding conditions in Kan- sas, Missouri and Oklahoma was dis- liked by the bulls in_stocks, although highly relished by the bull party in wheat, as witnessed by the soaring of the price of wheat to new high levels. The incident ~served to bring into prominence the importance to be at- tached to the crop outcome to insure the prosperous course of events which is so confidently foreshadowed in the recent acction of the stock market. It was a reminder, aiso, of the possibility of working up a crop scare of much portentious showing, which might serve to upset an extended speculation in stocks if it were entered upon dur- ing this crucial period of the growth of the crops. 7his was the only case discernible for the check to the specu- lation, which charted fairly enough in continuation of the movement in prog- Tess on Saturday. The promise of the improvement in the banking position was held to be fulfilied by the com- plexxion of the Saturday bank state- ment. The call money market was ap- preciably easier and the course of the international ~ exchanges ~seemed to lessen the probability of further ox- ports of gold from New York to Paris. The sterling exchange rate has risen at Paris and receded in New York suf- ficlently to wipe out the margin of profit on the movement of gold to Par- is from here. Conditions were consid- ered auspicious for the further new bond issues which confront the mar- ket, including & coming sale of $40,- 000,000 of New York city 4 per cents., announced during the day.

London also helped the early strength in two eopper indus- trial that market, and a lively speculation in copper mining shares was an ac- companiment. The early efforts to get prices up were furthered by some ru- mors favorable to“individual securities or groups. The conspicuous strength of Northern Pacific and Great North- ern’ preferred was traceable to rumors of an intention to raise the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy dividend to a 10 per eent, rate.

United States Steel itself was strong, touching a new high record. A favotable impression was made by the determination of Fall River mapufacturers to forego their privilege of reducing wages under a sliding scale arrangement, the action being received as an evidénce of con- fidence in the outlook. The successive departure of many men prominent in financial affairs for prelonged absences is taken to foreshadow a period of quietude in the working out of flnan- cial projects.

THE MONGOLIAN AT HALIFAX, HER FOREPEAK FULL OF WATER. Passengers Tell Stories of Their Ex- citing lce Bondage Off St. John's. Halifax, N. 8, May 238.—With her forepeak full of water, one of the blades of her propeller smashed and with the paint torn from her bows and sides, the Allan line steamer Mongoli- an, from Glasgow and Liverpool for this port and Philadelphia, arrived here today Wwith the stoky of her ex ing ice-bondage of three days off St Jobn's, N. F. These injurips are slighi when it is taken into consideration that during these three days hundreds of tons of ice were buffeting and press- ing Aipon the steamer from all sides. Each of the hundred passengers to- night certified to the good discipline of Captain Hall ang his crew. While the passengers at times were greatly alarmed, and at one time were prepured to leave the ghip and venture across the ice, nothing approaching disorder was at any time manifested The Mongolian today carried ome passenger who had not ‘stayed aboard voluntarily, W. C.- Job, a merchant of St. John's, N. F., who hag crossed the ice from that place to the steamer, so that he might meet his wife and child, who were passengers aboard. Condi- tions after his arrival, however, be- came so bad that it was deemed inad- visable to attempt to return over the sathe route, and Mr. Job was obliged to remain on the steamer. 30TH NATIONAL FESTIVAL Of the North American Gymnastic Turnerbund at Cincinnati, Cincinnati, May 2(§—The _thirtieth national festival of th North Ameri- can Gymnastic unfon -or Turnerbund will take place on June 19 to 27 in- clusive.
