BY ROBERT EDGREN. It's all over, and now the one thing people are wondering about i what cellar Honest Tom O'Rourke and Honest Al Herford met in to ar- range the details.

Again of yoi! and then some 1 In short, Jabez White and Joe Gans went ten rounds, Several and sundry unwise sports are lamenting that fact, inasmuch as they fell for a r few “wise”’ ones who circulated offering $100 to $50, or $50 to $25, ol d Gi d W, ll even $2 to 1 that White wouid stick the ten, This was an absurd bet if, re a e l Gans intended to fight. It looked like a sure thing the Old Master would score before that. Gans wasn't called the “Old Master” a little later, but a much more homely name, For Joe Gans ‘pulled his head off,” in the vernacular of the ring. Joe could have tucked Mr. White, of England, away in two or three | rounds, and he didn’t. Even when White’s left arm went out of com: | mission after being cracked across Joe’s bullet shaped head in the third| \ round, Joseph managed by careful work to save him and tease him| along.

That's about all we can say, except that he did land severai very interesting right hand punches on Joe's jaw, | in response to which Joe forgot himself for a moment in the sixth tound and knocked Jabez flat. The Managers Got Busy. And there the fine Italian hands of the Uppercuts and he fell again, but got Jabez had been punching away anx- fously with his right to head and stom- ach. Gans had rocked on his heels and Bone through a pretty play of groggi- ness, White, encouraged by the cries| of the crowd urging him to "go get him,” was eagerly coming in, landing his punches, and leaving wide openings that Gans failed to make use of. The crowd, knowing what a sharp shooter Gans is when he wants to be, began hooting and jeering. Gans wore an ex- pression of annoyance. x inally he shot his right over in a little short hook to thing subse ;a m When It was ail over Jabez W: }across the ring to where I sat {holding out his left arm explaine {he broke it on Gans's heed in ound.
