There can be no doubt of that in the minds of those who saw him win the final event at Ingleside yes- terday. Walter Jennings has cut many a melon in his racing career and has developed many a fgueer looking ani- | mai into a thoroughbred racer, but you | will have to hand it to him for digging up this crack two-year-old. | There were six of ‘em carded to go In, the last event—Green Morris' crack Gold | Van, Barney Bil; Oliver's Gillie, Butch Fisher | Jockey Club and the Jennings entry, | ¥roper and Bucolic. Gold Van, shown himself to be a rather likely look- | 3 ing youngster in his smashing race with | The Major on Saturday, was regarded as | the real cream cheese and the bookies | held him at the short price of 1 to 3. The | Jennings entry opened at 3 to 1and 210 5 | for the place. A chunk of wise money was sent in by the paddock fraternity on | the stable at this price. Proper was fig- | ured by such well known handicappers as | Ben McPherson to have a swell chance to | beat the top-heavy favoriteand when word came in from the paddock that Jennings tnought pretty well of his horse, Proper morey appeared in wads, forcing the price down to 2 to 1 at post time. ‘What's Green doing?” the ring asked, | and, as soon as it found he was allowing | his horse to run loose, the price shot up | until it was possible to obtain 1 to 2 at post time on the favorite. Barney | Schreiber jumped down off the block and | waded through the human maelstrom, betting $20 here and $40 there on Deutch- | land. He played the horse all three ways and broke about even to the race. GOLD VAN IS DEFEATED. When Starter Jake Holtman sent them | Deutchland showed in front, with d Van hard at his heels.

OAKLAND, Nov. 26.—Belief among the followers of the fighters that Harry Foley and “‘Rough House” Charlie Burns will put up.a whirlwind fight at the Acme Club Friday night is exciting a~good deal of interest in pugilistic circles. The two middle-weights are training faithfully at their quarters and both are confident of victory. Foley is doing his condition- ing at Croll's Gardens in Alameda, where he has had Britt and Eddie Hanlon for company. Burns has reached the point where hard work is no longer necessary | and from now until the hour of the fight will take things a little easier. Ry e Reason for a Dismissal. H. M. Burnett, recording secretary of San Francisco Lodge No. 68, Internation= al Association of Machinists, stated yes- terday that H.

IMMIE BRITT, the- Californian light-weight boxer, took a giant stride last night toward the world's championship. He defeated Frank Erne handily in one of the fastest and most, sensational fights ever seen in this State, taking the measure of the Buf- falo koy in seven rounds. The victor came out of the battle un- seathed, while his opponent’s face was cut and puffed out of all resemblance.to the classic features it showed when the Buffalo man entered the ring. The fight was the most brilllant Britt his ever en- gaged in and even at that it did not seem to extend the Olympic Club man to his ut- most. He was cool at all times and took advantage of every opening. Erne stood erect all the time and seem- ed puzzled at Britt'g exaggerated crouch- ing attitude, being unablé to get in an effective blow. His left hand had a}j the wonderful quickness and precision of its possessor's championship days, but it is doubtful if it had the old-time force. Erne stood off and seemed to land at will at times, but the blows had no apparent force. When Erne tried slugging he was a Leaten man, -as Britt fairly bent him double repeatedly with lefts and rights to the body. ERNE IS STRONG. Erne. did riot seem weakened by the weight he made, although his powers of recuperation seemed defective. He did not come back as quickly as Britt, who proved a wonder at this, Britt seemed drawn and nervous when he entered the ring, but the battle he put up showed he was in perfect condition. The sixth and seventh rounds proved a carnival of slugging such as is seldom seen in any ring. Blow followed blow,in such rapid succession that the eye could hardly follow them. It would have ie- quired a kinetoscope to have recorded all of them accurately. The fourth ana fifth rounds were KErne's, and his friends thought he had warmed up to his work and would improve as the fight pro- gressed. In this they were doomed to dis- appointment, as Britt took a commanding lead early in the sixth round, which he never relinquished. There was a sharp exchange at closc range, of which Erne got much the worst of the encounter. Britt sent him to the floor, but he was up immediately. His gameness was remarkable, as he was fighting whenever the .opportunity offered until exhausted nature finally refused to come to his aid. 5 Brift came up apparently fresh in the seventh round and at once sailed into Erne. The latter tried to fight back, but he could not stop the wonderful fighting machine in front*of him. BRITT’S BODY BLOWS. Britt kept up a continual play of his left for the body and each blow seemed tor- ture for Erne. He went down for three seconds and again for six seconds and still come back for more. The house was | in an uproar, the coolest man in all the throng apparently being Britt. He gave Ernc no rest and finally sent him down for the full count. Erne was on his hands and knees and was powerless to move a muscle. ‘When he was "helped to his corner he gave way to tears. Britt was at once the center of an admiring crowd of friends who complimented him on his brilliant showing. - The attendance was the largest seen here at a fight in years. The gallery was and even the rafters provided vantage points from which some enthy- siasts saw the fight. On the main floor men in evening clothes, well known pro- fessional men and all sorts and conditions of people jostled one another. The ushers did a thriving business on their own ac- count, which developed many disputes over seats. Even the press scats were not free from the barter in an effort turn a penny. The betting, throughout the day was at 10 to 7 with Britt favorite. These seemed false odds on the past perform- ances of the men, but the fight showed they were justified. The men made the weight, 135 pounds ring side, easily. The scales were fixed at that welght and neither boxer raised the bar. BOXERS ENTER THE RING. Britt was the first to put in an appear- ance. He was accompanied by “Spider” Kelly, Charley Reno, Tim McGrath and Curtis Richardson. He at once selected the southwest corner of the ring, the samc one he used when he defeated Tim Hegarty. Over his fighting trunks Britt wore a light blue sweater. He wak greeted with cheers, which had hardly subsided when Erne was seen making his way to the ringside. Erne had a long overcoat over his fighting garb. He was dccom~ panied by Frank Zimpfer, Issie Alexander, George Olsen apd “Pinky” Potis. Britt atj once walked over and shook hands witk him. “Billy”” Jordan soon tcok the floor and introduced Britt as the pride of the Olympic Club. Erne he introduced as the “Buffalo wonder,” There was then a procession of fighters, who are to ap- pear here, through the ring. There were insistent calls and roars of applause for Jeffries and Fitzsimmons and they finally entered the ring. They were Introduced as the two greatest champions of the world. Jeffries and Fitz each tried to in- Guce the other to speak, Fitz as the actor- man finally consenting. His speech in full will be found elsewhere. There was an earnest discussion in mid- ring for a time, .the principals being the center of a hollow circle of seconds and officials. -After the conference it was an- nounced the men had agreed to fight strajght Marquis of Queensberry rules.
