Judges Disagree and Refzree Graney Casts the De- ciding Vote. et - F W. J. Leonard, the Olympic Club's fa- vorite boxer, was defeated last night, much to his surprise and to that of the spectators. He met Jack Hughes of the Hawthorne Atheltic Club in a bout at the Olympic Club's special boxing exhibition. In the first and second rounds there was but little damage dome. In the third Hughes landed some hard right hand swings to the head and had Leonard in distress. It was all fighting In the last round, Lecnard apparently landing the most telling blows. The judges disagreed and Referee Gra- ney decided in favor of Hughes. Tho spectators seemed about as evenly divided in their opinions as were the judges. Had Leonard assumed the aggressive from the start he would have surely won. George Murray outc! d Bift Johnson. He finally knocked the latter out in the third round. Johnson was standing up leaning on the ropes at the time and re- mained in that posture until assisted to his corner by his seconds. Harry Tenney and Joe Kane, an oddly matched pair in size, fought themselves dstill in two rounds. First one the other had the advantage un- til just before the gong sounded the end of the fourth round. Jenney had Kane in distress and finally knocked him out. It was some time before he came to. Dick Hyland, the Sharkey of the ama- teur ring, wore out Ed Anstett in four rounds and secured the decision. Hyland was the stronger and the more aggressive throughout. Billy Fuller and James Liniger sup- plied the comedy element of the evening. They boxed four long distance rounds without either being damaged. Referee Graney stopped the bout tween George Finne and Frank Scott in the first round. Scott went down sev- eral times without being hit. S a curtain raiser Jimmy Britt and am Berger boxed three rounds. The first two rounds showed some clever boxing was an imitation of a knockout. It was sufficiently realistic to draw rounds of applause from the spece tators. The officials were: Judges—W. M. Cart- wright, Stewart Carter; referee—E. M. Graney: announcer—Frank Thompson; timekeeper—F. R. Butz. ——— NEW YORK WINS BOTH GAMES FROM ST. LOUIS 1 Cleveland Batters Slug the Ball Hard and Defeats the Washington Team.
