Reno, Nevada, July 4 —Twenty thousand persons banked tier on tie; etared for a heart's beat time at a heawing white figure prostrate on a| square of pink canvas this afternoon and tried to realize that what ma be the last chapter in American prizer- ing anmals had been written before them. The big man whose bulk sagzed low the white rope over which he lay was James J. Jeffries. And over him emiling, alert, his emooth black bod: slistening in the brilllant desert sun- whine, stood Jack Johnson, the new king of the ring. No ring contest ever drew such an attendance and never before was so many thousands _ ©of dollars fought for or paid by the wsport loving public to see a fight * Five Hundred Women in the Audience. ‘The men, and for that matter the five handred or more women scattered through that vast audience, 2re to- night dispersing east and west and north and south.

And, wipn after 59 minutes of concentrated aad intense interest the thing they had Jooked forward to for over a year was over, something between a sigh and & groan went up to the blue sky, but there was little complaint. $260,000 from Sale of Seats.

He met utter defeat at the hands of the black chempion. Saved Jeff from the Count. White Jeffries was not actually eounted out, he was saved from this arowning shame only by his friends pleading with Johnson not to hit the fallen man again, and the towel was brought into the ring from his corner At the end of the fifteenth round Ref- eree Tex Rickard raised the negro's arms and the great crowd filed gtum and siient. Jeftries was dragged to hi bleeding from his nose and m = dozen cuts on his face. He had black, closed eve and swollen features and he held his head in his hands, daz- ed and incoherent Only a Scratch on Johnson. Johnson walked out of the ring with- ©ut 2 mark on his body except a S cvt on his Iip, which was the ope ©of a wound received in training Rimg experts agree that it was mot even a championship fight. Jeffri $2d a chance in the second round, hape, but after the sixth it was that he wms weakening and was out ciassed at every point, and after the centh round it was hopeles: was the greatest demonstration the ring has ever seen of the failure of a fighter to come back after vears of retirement.

New York, July 4—After spending the night on the stranded steamer Princaton, tiited over a sand bar in the Green Meadows between City Isl- and and_Hart's Island, Long Island Sound, eighteen passengers who re- fused to leave the steamer in small boats during the night were taken off today and returned to their homes|in New York. A dozen passengers, the first to en- ter the lifeboat, had a narrow escape from drowning and were all drenched when the boat filled, a minute after it had touched the water. The plugs which are used in the drain holes in the bottom of the boat had not been put in and the boat filled a5 soon as it touched the water. It had not been disconnected from the davits, howaver, and was hoisted at once with no seri- ous results. Twenty-one passengers several women and children, braved the experience of a trip in the life- boats and reached their homes in the city before daylight. The Princeton, which belongs to the Glen Island Amusement company, went aground early today whil> making its final trip from Glen Island to Pier 1, North_river. The steamer struck the sand bar in Green Meadows, about a quarter of a mile from City Island. The bow scraped over the bar befors the engzines were shut off, and with the further fall of the tide the stern rose in the air, tilting tha vessel at an appreciable angle. Captain Newman, in charge of the steamer. explained to the passengers that there was abso- lutely no danger, howevdr, and those who wished to remain aboard were made as comfortable as possible. for the night. Others were taken off in the lifeboats. The steamer absolutely no dan— ger. according to Captain Newman, and will be floated with little damage or expense. HAROLD BOSWORTH HAS FIRST PRACTICE HERE.
