Downey, like Wilson, is a ose-sunch fighter, depending entirely on hid right hand to win.

Downey Out of Condition Downey was fat and out of condi? tion and was tired when the wearisome mis-up came to an end. Wilson ?coked to be in fine shape and it was prt'bebly this fact that enabled him to withstand some of the hard right wal? lops that bis opponent put over in the 'last five rounds. The champion seemed contented to stall along and it was a question whether he lacked the slightest semblance of real ability or ?imply didn't want to try. In the best bout on the program, Johnny Buff, flyweight champion, suc? cessfully defended his title against Indian Russell. He knocked Russell out in the fifth round after a two fisted tussle that had the crowd on its feet from start to finish. In the first preliminarv, Willie Spen eer, of tha East Side defeated Solly Epstein, of Indiana, in eight rounds, wcile in the second Dick Griffin, of Texas, otrtpofnted Matty Herbert, of J New York, in the same number of -ronds.

Panama Joe is about as tough a cus? tomer as we have seen in action in aany moons, and it was only this fact '?hat carried him through the storm of hiows that McTigue rained on him.

In the second round it looked as though Solly was due for a nap, and on one occasion he was knocked half through the ropes when Wilson caught ! him flush on the point of the jaw with ' an uppercut that started somewhere near the floor and went straight to the '? mark. Epstein, however, hung on and weathered the gale and came back I strong in the third and fourth sessions. ? Both Display Grit Both men took a lot of punishment in these rounds, but they were in such splendid physical condition that they could stand it. In the fifth round Spencsr walloped Solly all over the ring, and when tho bell rang the Western scrapper steered a groggy course for his corner. The crowd begged SpencerVto put over the skep producer, and V'iilie tried so hard that an one time he fell from his own exertions. j The bout was refereed by Phil Ear hart, who had a tough time keeping clear of the wild swings that the scrap? pers hurled about promiscuously. The crowd gave the victory to Spencer. He won by a comfortable margin. There seemed to be more interest taken in the battle between Mike Mc Tigue and Panama Joe Gans, the colored star, than there was in the main event. This was something of a grudge affair, as both boxers and their managers have been saying unkind things for months. There was a lot of lively betting on this scrap, the backers of Gans covering every cent of McTigue cash that made its appearance. Early it* the game the wagers were made at even money, but by the time the men climbed into the ring Gan3 was ruling a 2 to 1 favorite. The second engagement on the pro? gram brought together Matt;.* Herbert, of New York, and Dick Griffin, of Texas. Jimmv De Forest was the third man in the ring. Humphries, the golden-voiced contralto, told the crowd that both men weighed 125 pounds. They were slated to go eight rounds. Fiddling and Shimmying The boys fiddled and shimmied about the ring in the first round until the crowd howled for them to get together. There wasn't a real blow struck until '? the second round, when Griffin laid | Herbert flat on his back with a neat paste on the point of the jaw. Matty hit about the same sp<>t where 90,000 thousand persons saw Georges Carpentier counted out on July 2. Matty didn't stay down, however. Jimmy De Forest hadn't started to count before he was up and mixing it with the Texan. Griffin carried the fight to Herbert throughout, but his blows did not ap? pear to bother the New Yorker to any freat extent. Dick kept boring in. ut slowed up considerably in the sixth round, when Matty landed sev? eral solid lefts to the jaw. In this session Matty brought the blood trick? ling from Griffin's nose, but the latter retaliated by opening up Matty's lower lip. It was Griflin's fight by a slight margin. Johnny Buff, flyweight champion, en? tered the ring and got a great hand. He was followed a moment later by Indian Russell, of Harrisburg, Pa., chal? lenger for the title. The weights were announced as 114% for Buff and 109V. for Russell. The title holder looked to be in fine shape. The little fellows wasted no time in getting together. The clang of the first bell had not died away before they were battling viciously. Russell was a willing challenger, but he found himself up against a crafty and experienced ring general. Buff's Rapid Left The Harrisburg battler kept boring in, but ho was a mark for Buff'.-t rapid fire left, which landed almost every time it was started. In the second round the flyweight king shook the challenger to his heels with fierce rights and lefts to the jaw. He landed three blows to every one put over by the Indian. The third round was a slam-bang af? fair, with Johnny doing most of the J slamming. He could hit the Indian at j will, and the latter seemed willing to ? take- it in order to get near enough to j put over one solid smash. In the fifth round Johnny toppled the j Indian with a hard left to the jaw. The ? challenger took the count of eight and i then staggered to his feet, only to be I met by a storm of swings that sent him j down again. This time he was in such ? bad shape that Referee De Forest stopped the bout. The end came after two minutes and ten seconds of fighting in the fifth round. Russell was completely out? classed and never had a chanco to grab tho title. < The Wilson-Downey disturbance was put on immediately after Buff had disposed of Russell. The, challenger was the first to enter the ring, climbing through the ropes at 4:15. A broad piece of adhesive tape was pasted across the bridge of his nose to protect the cut which j Bryan received in the Cleveland battle. ? Wilson made h?3 ^npeararce ?> few sec- ; onds later, but didn't receive any over- , whelming ovation. Downey drew most i applause. The first thing that Wilson did was j to inspect Downey's bandages. The two i wasted no pleasantries, the champion j giving the challenger a glare and pass- ] ing immediately over to his own corner. Downey wore a bathrobe of toweling, while the champion sported a green and brown dressing gown. Wilson's weight was announced as 159 ! and Downey's as 154.

Istalena Sets "Fifties* Pace At Larchmont Nautilus Wins With Bor? rowed Stick; Fleet of 63 Out in Spankinsr Weather LARCHMONT MANOR. N. Y., Sept. 5. ?Larchmont luck was very much in evi? dence to-day or. Long I.land Sound. The popular club held its annual fall regatta with a fleet of sixty-tbrr yachts coming to the starting ?in* oS* Larchmont Breakwater. When Howell C. Perrin, chairman of the race commit? tee, set the course signals there w^s blowing an east, northeast breeze that was the best racing wind of the sum? mer. It was of a good twenty knot in strength, and as it came the committee was able to pick out splendid courses for all the craft. The larger divisions had a triangular race of twenty miles. It was a good stiff beat to Greenwich Point for the first leg. Then came a reach across the Sound to Oak Neck for the second leg, followed by a run home. Interest cen? tered in the race among the fifty-footers of the New York Yacht Club. In the class the winner was Istalena III. the property of G. F. Pynchon. The thirty nine-footers of the Larchmont Yacht Club covered the same coarse, the win? ner being Gray Dawn. Nautilus Wins With Borrowed Mat* An indication, of the spirit of Long Island Sound yachting was seen in tho thirty-foot class of the New York Yacht Club. On Saturday M. E. Hat field's Nautilus lost her mast in the race of the Se3wanhaka-Corinthir.*! Yacht Club. To-day she appeared here with a new srick which had been bor? rowed from Banzai, the property of Edmund Land, a thirty-footer not in commission this summer. With the new stick and a rig not setting the best Nautilus won in the division. Regardless of the fact that the wind ?was kicking up whitecaps all over the Sound practically all of the yachts finished without any accidents. The only one of importance to be reported was in the third division of the handi? cap class, in which Rascal, the prop ? erty of E. Jacobson. was dismasted. In the division the winner on both actual and corrected time was Robin Hood IIT. The Victory class and the U class of sloops filled in a nice manner. In the former the winner was Mongolia, | the property of H. M. Curtis. L. Her? zoges Top led home the Class U sloops and a!so won on corrected time. In tho popular Star class the winner was Irex. Young T. J. McCahill jr. again was the wjjiner in the Southampton one-design class in his Liris. ? _ Bois de Belleau Is Winner in Victory Class Yacht Race Perfect Conditions Make the Sea Gate-Bensonhurst Contests Fair Boat Tests Perfect weather conditions were given to lower bay yachtsmen for the annual regatta of the Atlantic Yacht : Club yesterday. The wind was east southeatst and fresh, with enough strength to kick up a decided sea in midchannel. The course chosen by the regatta committee, made up of , Ira L. Beebe jr.. chairman; Rear Com? modore Edmund Land and Richard Rummell, gave the craft a reach from the starting line off Sea Gate to a mark off Bensonhurst, a run across the channel to Craven Shoals and a stiff beat home. The course was covered twice. In? terest centered principally in the race for the Victory Class. At the end of the first round, Bois de Belleau, the property of Commodore Francis R. Mayer, was leading by 22 seconds. The times taken of the Victory yachts wero Bois de Belleau, 12:08:46; Nieuport, 12:09:08, and Cantigny. 12:10:50.
