Oot, 81.—Max Will- famson of Philadelphia eastiy defeated Battling Mack of Camden, N, J,, in every round here last night at the Olympia A. A, The above club has cabled Jimmy the 4th Regiment Armory, Jersey City, The club 1s a spacious one, probably of 10,000 seating capacity, and meybe that is why the crowd of some 4,000 fans appeared lost. Dave Driscoll, the promoter, who ‘staged the big show at the Jersey City Baseball Park recently, which drew nearly 49,000 fans, the largest ori in the history of boxing, had more trouble arranging last night's card than ever beset a matchmaker hitherto, Bout after bout was ar- ranged, and of the original aard only the Joe Jeanette-Harry Wills bout was decided per schedule. Considering the way the show was put together it was a very intoresting one, and the fans left the club satis- fied with the several events that were held. Bill Brennan, the big heavyweight, who is clamoring for a return bout with Champion Jack Dempsey, ore- ated the moat Intereat of anybody on the bill. It was believed that he had & soft one in Dan O'Dowd of Boston, but the latter proved a tartar. O'Dowd has never been knocked out in his carear—and it was only re- cently that he graduated from the amateur ranks. He reigned as cham- pion of the’ simon pure heavies up New England way. , No gamer or more rugged heavy ever stepped through the ropes than tue Boston boy. He took punch after punch, and used a lot of good judg- rocnt im moving around fast and keeping clear of Brennan's most deadly puncbes, This lad Bill cap wallop like the kick of a mule, but although he frequently had the Bos- tonian rocking like a boat, he couldn't drop him. C'Dowd was battered from pillar to post in the final round, but when the gong sounded he was smiling through 4 film of blood and ready to endure further punishment. Marty Cross and* Steve Latzo fought eight hard rounds, it being a good draw. Latzo landed many stiff punches around Marty's mid- section. The local welterweight has a corking right and in the final round he dropped his opponent for @ short count, Jeanette, weighing 204 pounds, was badly outpotnted by Harry Wills, who waa inclined to be lenient with the popular Hoboken boxer, He floored him in the second and last rounds, Joe received a handsome watch from the officers and men of the port of embarkation at Hoboken for his services during the war, ‘Tommy Robson and George Chip, the ex-middleweight champlon, fought a hard cight-round draw.

Frederick Jobnson has fust paid that fancy price for the daughter or Ultimus and Tarkinhow to W., I. Coe. Mr, Coe bas owned jthe fly lte more than a month, having bought her during the sales | at Saratoga for $9,800, so that the in- | Vestment was one of considerable profit to him. The filly. who will probably race next Year under the name of Summit, was bred by Miss Esabeth Dainger- field at Lexington, Ky., and was the star of the very select lot which she sent to the sales ring at the Spa in | August. Sho has trained very nicely |and in her early racing education has shown trials considered marvellous for a yearling. She is credited with having shown a quarter before leav- ing Saratoga in 228-5, eome stepping for a yearling. This is what prob- ably led to her purehase by Mr. John- eon Thi been a wonderful year In the eale of horses, probably a record- breaker, For instance, mare than three-quarters of a million dollars— $879,210, to be exact-—was realized at the auction block at Saratoga for the thoroughbreds the E. J. Tranter Com- | pany (Fasig and Tipton) offered to bidders, Two hundred and twenty- weven veering bronght $403,500, an average of $2,658.58 a bead; nineteen brood mares fetobed $136,300, an aver- age of $7,173.69 a bead; three stallions brought $21,800 an average of $7,267, and eighty-three horses ip trataing fetched $117,610, and average of $1,417. These figures related merely to the auction sales business. Many horses of various have been bought and sold privately. Montford Jones paid $40,000 in June for the two-year-old Brookholt, @ aon of Ballot. 8. C, Hil- dreth paid $17,500 for Dominuque. & son of Peter Quince, Hildreth is said to have refused an offer of $150,000 for the three-year-old Purchase, Larry Waterbury, a successtul New York ‘broker, paid $20,000 for the three-year-old Sennings Park. Mr. Tranter, who keeps a close watch on the thoroughbred market generally, estimates that some $2,600,000 will have changed hands in transactions in thoroughbred blood before the first of the year. Many horses of various ages wil) be sold in Kentucky this fall. : It was thought that the top limit of American buyers, a6 regards auction sales prices, was reached in the sum- mer of 1918 when Mrs. Walter M. Jef- fords, of Philadelphia, paid $15,000 for a Krench bred yearling by Sweeper, out of Zuna, which won the Saratoga Special in August under the name of Golden Brook; when Commander J. K. L, Ross, of Montreal, paid $14,600 for a colt by Black Jester, out ot Primula, and Joseph EB. Widener paid $14,000 for a son of Vulcan and Fairy Gold, whioh claime Friar Rock, Fair Play‘ and Fittergold for half brothers, But this theory has been badly shattered. Ten thousand dol- lars and $15,000 were common prices for good-looking thorough! last August.
