He was beaten to a fare-ye-well up to the fourth, when a few good and lucky hits put him one to the good. But even then he was not safe. Luck stayed with the team, however, and in the sev- enth round, Graham threw the ball away and let in three runners. That broke up the game and settled the issue. Score, San Francisco 9;: Oakland 6.+ Graham was In good form for a time and Iberg was himself after the tide turned in his favor, so the honors be- tween the twirlers were about even. Oakland jumped into the lead during the first Inning, when the two tallies were rolled up. After that they kept adding to the runs until they had accumulated five. It began to look pretty safe for the Cripples and they became care- less and this little oversight just about tossed off the game. i The home team began to get into the runnizg in the fourth. Every man seemed to have his eves cn the leather and smote it to all t“e fur corners of the lot. They did not stop until five had made the circuit, giving San Frasacisco a It would have probably been interesting even at that had not Graham fixed it all by throwing the -all away in the sev- enth.

Get the Worst of a Hard-Hitting Contest at Sacramento. SACRAMENTO, Aug. 25.—The game be- tween Portland and Sacramento to-day was a regular slugging match from the start. The Senators had much the better of it, as their hits were not only timely, but were long ones. In the second in- ning Sheehan, Graham and Thomas all drove out doubles. In the next Sheehan and Graham got three-baggers and three others singles. In the seventh Sheehan got another double, while four singles were made by his team mates.

It appears the three men have received offers to go to Pittsburg and be ed out by the Champions. They wired their Sustains a Broken Jaw in the Seventh Round. Referee E. J. Smith Stops the Proceedings in the Tenth. SRR With his left jaw fractured in the sev- enth round by a dazing right uppercut delivered by Billy Otts, Toby Irwin cons tinued to fight up to the tenth round last night at the Reliance Club in Oaklend. Referee Eddie Smith then announced that because of the injury Irwin could not go on and Otts was awarded the decision. Handicapped though he was for the three last rounds, it was generally con- ceded that Toby had a strong lead over Otts and would eventually have been de- clared the winner had the bout progressed the limit of fifteen rounds. In the eighth round Irwin pummeled the soldier fighter from the Philippines into a wobbly con- dition and it was only the longed-for clang of the bell that saved Otts from having his colors trailed in defeat. Both boxers resorted to jabbing tactics and before the battle had reached the fourth round Irwin had brought the blood from Otts’ nose. He then used his left continually on the sore organ, causing Billy much annoyance. Toby did most of his execution with his left hand and but rarely brought his right glove into ac- tion. | His blocking and smothering of blows aimed at his anatomy was clever, as was the footwork of Otts. In the opening round the boxers led, sidestepped and blocked with honors even. In the s-cond Toby straight lefted Billy and collided with a right swing that caused him to wonlier where he was. At the bell both boxers were fighting flercely. There was a fest mixup in the third, out of which Otts came bleeding profuse- ly. Billy assumed a crouch in the fourth round, but was straightened up by Toby’s left hooks. At the close of this round Ir- win's head was knocked back with a snap and he clinched to protect himself from Otts, who bored in viciously. There was considerable fiddling in the fifth, the best blow being a right cross from Otts that brought up against Toby's jaw and made him slacken his pace. Otts tried for the stomach in the sixth, but Toby guarded well and drove his opponent all over the ring. g The seventh began with a' feint and a clinch. Otts then stepped in and drove up a terrific right that stopped flush on the point of Irwin's jaw. This was the blow thbat did the damage, but Toby nev- er heeded the smash and had Billy in dis- tress at the gong. Irwin went right after his map in the eighth and had Otts tot- tering &hen the round closed. Toby con- tinued his aggressive battling in the ninth and Billy was again caused to wob- ble. When the bell sounded for the tenth Referee Smith announced Irwin's Injury and proclaimed Otts the victor. In the preliminaries Young McConnell knocked out Jimmy Troy in the second round of a scheduled four-round go. Dan- ny Sullivan gave Fred Otts all he cculd assimilate in three rounds of a limited eight-round bout, the contest being stopped by the referee, These bouts marked the resumption of boxing in Oakland after a lull of ten months. The cvents were witnessed by a large assemblage. s S A AMATEURS IN THE RING. Bay City Athletic Club Officials An- nounce an Attractive Card. Paul Martin and Lew Powell will meet to-night in Mechanics’ Pavilion Annex before the Bay City Athletic Club in a four-round boxing bout for the amateur feather-weight champlonship. Of thirteen fights Powell has won nine by knocking out his opponents. Martin is a clever boxer and has a degjsion over Billy Leon- ard to bis credit.
