ST. LOUIS, Nov. 11.—Danny Dougherty of Philadelphia, Terry McGovern's sparring partner, was knocked out in the cond round of what was to have been a fifteen-round bout by Harry Forbes of Chicago, in the arena of the West End Club to-night. The men fought viclously from the start, but honors were even when the bell tapped. In the second round, in the midst of a savage exchange, Forbes hit Dougherty’s jaw with a terrific right- hand upper-cut, which whirled the Phila- delphian completely around and brought him to the floor flat on his face. ve minutes elapsed before Dougherty re- ained consciousness. McGovern was in ougherty’s corner. The men fought at 5 pounds. 1 —_—— Six-Day Walking Match. PITTSBURG, Oct. 1L.—Old City Hall was crowded at 12:30 this morning to see the start in the six-day go-as-you-please race for the championship. All the lead- ing heel-and-toe men in the country are entered in the grind of 142 hours straight v, including_George Tracy, champlon of the United States, and 0T Cx;rt- rright, champlon of England.s The track is twenty laps to the mile, and twenty- two starters sprinted off in rapid style when they got the word. At 11:35 o'clock to-night Cavanaugh broke the twenty-four hours’ world record, covering 12 miles and 8§ laps in 23 hours and 5 minutes.

FRANKFORT, Ky., Nov. 11.—Governor Beckham to-night addressed to Governor Durbin of Indiana a letter replying to the criticism by that executive of the courts and officials of Kentucky in his recent letter refusing to honor the requisition for Taylor and Finley, wanted for alleged complicity in the assassination of Gov- ernor Goebel. He severely arralgns Gov- ernor Durbin for his refusal, charging that in doing so he violated his oath of office to support the constitution of the United States, and that he became a party after the fact to the most infamous crime in the history of this State, the cold- blooded and dastardly murder of an emi- nent and distinguished citizen of Ken- tucky. The Kentucky executive also charges that Governor Durbin’s action in refusing ‘was the result of the political bargain made before his election to office, and characterizes his charges against the courts and officials of Kentucky as serious and inexcusable misrepresentations. He takes the stand that the Governor of a State has no discretionary powers, but only ministerial powers, in the honoring of legally drawn requisitions from other States, and this is taken here as an in- dication that steps will shortly be takea in the courts to compel Governor Durbin by mandamus to honor the requisitions, If such proceedings are instituted they will be in the courts of Indiana, and taken on appeal to the Supreme Court.

SPEEDY SIQU0 S FRENDS R MANY Healey’s Hound Backed for Stake Honors at Petaluma. Open Plains Coursing Meet- ing Is Attracting Large Crowds. gy Svecial Dispatch to The Call. PETALUMA, Nov. 11.—The afternoon trains brought crowds of coursing enthu- slasts and, judging from the lively inter- est taken in the overnight pools, this rear’s open plains meeting is already a succe; The people of this city are par- tisans of ‘Sisquoe, Denny Healey's fast grevhound, and are figuring-him a cer- tainty for the final flag. ‘Lhey claim Sis- quoc is on home grounds and, besides, is trained. to the hour. The invaders, too, have a strong leaning toward Healey's champion and are playing him for stake honors. One thing is certain: If Sisquoc does not beat everything he meets, there will be general disappointment. Charley Griswold reports that the re- cent rains have laid the dust on the fleld and left the ground in the best of condi- tion. In the matter of second choice, the talent figures that the winner of the Van- dal-A. J. Martin course stands a great chance to reach the final.

His backers claim that he has completely recovered from his injuries and that he will surprise the best of them. His posi- tion on the card is a good one and he will likely figure close to the big money. In- dications point to a large attendance at the opening round to-morrow morning.

Every day Corbett has taken a spin on the road to remove superfluous flesh and is strengthening h|sl arms in preparation of forcing Jeffries and Ruhlin apart when they clinch. F‘ur- bett is reported to be in good (‘nndlllqn and ready to enter the ring at a minute’s notice. Mr. Corbett has thought out a plan of action that he will adhere to during the fight. He expects to render a decision that will satisfy every spectator. He is in hopes, however, that the contest will not go the distance. Mr. Corbett said: I have a thorough knowledge of the Marquls of Queensberry rules. 1 have read the articles of agreement under which the men will contest and I am sure there will be no delay or dis- pute when the men are in the ring. There- fore when I tell them to break I want them to do so without delay. I hope it will be un- necessary for me to step between the contest- ants to force them apart. They are experienced boxers and have a knowledge of the rules gov- erning the game of fisticufis. When a man is | knocked down 1 will insist upon the other re- tiring to his corner or a sufficient distance, so that the man knocked down may rise It it be in his power. I will be particularly on the alert for fouling, but I will not disqualify a man for fouling unless he has deliberately at- tempted to do so. In boxing there are unin- tentional fouls that are committed and I be- lieve it to be in the province of a referee to overlook them. They are trivial and do neither man any harm. Both men are known to be ! fair fighters and I look for no trouble from them. Queensberry Rules. The Marquis of Queensberry rules, un- der which the men will battle, are as fol- lows: 1.

Siler Gives His Views. George Siler, the famous referee, gave hlsdvlqws on refereeing ring contests. He said: Years ago I read the Marquis of Queensberry rules very cacefully and came to the conclusion that a referee did not enter the ring to fight. He is simply there to mee that there is fair play and give a decision if necessary. I do not think the referee will have any trouble Friday night. Both men have fought repeat- edly and wiil undoubtedly abide by the rul- ings and instructions of the referee. The referée in the ring should be cool and collected. He should pay no attention to the howis of the mob or the roars and cheers for one man or the other. He should keep close to the contestants as he possibly can, £0 that if there is & knockdown he will bé ready to count as quickly as possible and tu see that the other man retires far enough away to allow {he knocked down man to get up. The question of sending a man to his cor- ner, which of course the rules call for, is Wrong in a sense. When the rules were framed it was meant by the framer to send the man to his corner, but what wi vent a man standing over his opponent if the latter was knocked down in his corner? I am of the opinion that when a man is knocked down the other man should retire a sufficient distance. The referee, it possible. should be in a posi- tion to see in between the men. He need not break them apart, but at times this cannot be avolded. Fighters of experience have always obeyed me when T quietly warned them to break. The best way for a referee to gauge himself on clinches is to step forward with the man who s golng to lead. If there is to contest. He sent word to Manager Ken- nedy of the Twentieth Century Club that | he would be at the ringside. Maher a few nights ago knocked out Jeffords, the California heavy-weight. In the event | that Sharkey does not come to this city and Fitzsimmons declines to meet the winner of the fight, the Irish champion | will_be pitted against the victor in De- cember. Preliminary Events. ! “Spider” Welch and Joe Fields have been matched to go eight rounds on the | night of the contest. They will battle for the bantam championship of the coast. Fields for two years was champion ama- | teur bantam of the coast. Welch has a reputation of being c¢lever and a’' stiff puncher. Mike Curtin, a cousin of “Spi- | der” Kelly, will box eight rounds with | Billy Condon the same evening. The men will weigh in at 140 pounds. During the championship battle the P vilion will be in semi-darkness. This wil be necessary for the success of the mo ing pictures. All the lights will be ce tered on the ring and the spectators will be able to watch every move of the con- testants. The doors will be opened at 7 o'clock on the evening of the battle, People hold- ing tickets for the gallery must present them at the entrance on the Grove-street | side of the Pavilion. Only holders of re- served tickets will be allowed to enter at the main entrance on the Larkin-street side. There is every prospect of a crowd- ed house. The advance sale insures a large attendance. The carpenters are bus- | ily engaged at the Pavilion putting up | boxes and the ring. It is the intention of the management to have Ruhlin and Jef fries in the ring at $:15 o'clock. I think Jeffries is better than he ever was befsre in his life. He is faster and cleverer. 1 think he has improved 50 per cent since he last fought in San =rancisco. In his training the chamolon shows much good nature and life. Nothing seems to bother him, and to my mind this is the best indication in the worid | that be Is in good condition. It is hard to say how long the fight will last. It will de- pend wholly upon the way Ruhlin will fight. I think if Ruhlin fights as I have usually seen him fight, it will go over fifteen rounds. S« So far as the referee is concerned he will have no trovble at all. He could sit outside .the ring. There will be no fouls, as they are the | fajrest fighters in the world. | At Jeffries’ Quarters. Jeffries worked fast in the gymnasium | of the Rellance Club yesterday morning. | The big boiler-maker punched the bag | and boxed eight fast rounds with Arm- | strong and his brother. He then skipped the rope, toyed with the rowing machine and did other stunts. In the afternoon | ke performed before the moving picture machine. Jeffries was too accommodat- ing. He had just finished a hearty lunch and in order to please the manipulator of the machine the champion did a great amount of work on a full stomach, Evervbody thought Jim made a great | mistake in doing this. Tom Jeffries. a brother of the cham- plon, was a visitor at training quarters. He is 30 years of age, but has never seen San Francisco, having remained in Los Angeles all his life. Jim will inftiate his brother in a few days. George Siler watched Jeff go through his performance and in an interview said: 1 never saw Jeffries look better. He is much faster on his feet. From the work 1 have seen Jeft has changed his sosition. He used to spread In taking his attitude. He now keeps his feet closer together and as a result he springs qulckly and carries all his weight with Ma blows. ‘The battle ought not go to a finish. a B e ] ) Coach for Basket-Ball Team.

Miss Alma Stockwell has been engaged to teach them a few of the new tricks of the game.

The examination was made immediately after the Akron boxer had been rubbed down after his afternoon gymnasium work. Dr. Clinton tapped and listened to the ‘well-gaited beats of his heart. and could not find a serious flaw in the big fellow's make-up. Ruhlin's heart was somewhat enlarged, like those of all athletes who indulge in violent exercise, but Dr. Clin- ton said that Jeff's blood-pumping organ as In the same condition, ang that this rdiac hypertrophy, as the condition is technically termed by medical'men, would not retard the physical prowess or endur- ance of either man.
