awing in the pit of Harry Forbes' stomach in the second round of a scheduled 20-round fight Forbes by virtue of holding the championship was a 2 to 1 favorite in the betting but Neil in spite of that fact had many local supporters In the first round of the fight no effective blows were landed Forbes appeared in aplendid condition and was much the showier boxer of the two But he could not land effectively When they came up for the seCond round Neil lashed out with hie left and huided a terrillo punch on Forbes' stomach The Eastern champion doubled up like a sack knife and fell over backwards Ile lay in the corner of the ring and gasped for breath but managed to get up before ten seconds were counted Neil went at his man like a young tiger and rained a shower of blows on the almost defenseless Forbes Another punch in the stomach sent Forbes down again and Referee Graney counted him out Neil evidently did not hear the end of the count for as Forbes struggled to his feet Neil landed another left on the jaw and sent his man under the ropes There was a vigorous cry of foul from the Forbes people but as their man had already been counted out it was of no avail Considerable interest was manifested In this contest as the men met before when Neil claimed a foul which WaS not allowed by the referee and the decision was given to Forbes Johnnie Regan of St Louis challenged the winner There was much Interest aroused in labor circles Thursday by the publication in The American of the steps being taken to unionize the laborers connected with the public works of Nashville This movement Includes all those connected with the street sprinkling scavenger and other departments as laborers There may be a union formed of each class For this purpose a meeting has been called to be held Sunday afternoon at the hall of one of the local unions on Union street It will probably be of interest to state that the unionizing of public employe is not all that the present movement means As soon as the city laborers are organized it le understood to be the intention of the local labor leaders to branch out to other toilers and bring Into the folds of the unionism hotel waiters cooks coachmen drayrnen and every class where the number Is sufficient to constitute a union Not only will the laborers be Interested in this movement but those giving employment will doubtless take an interest in the ultimate outcome It Is understood to be the policy of local labor men to bring into the union every class of labor Charles Fahey one of the prominent local leaders stated in an interview Thursday that the movement as to the common laborer is by no means new having been under colsideration for several years The State Federation of Labor Mr Fahey stated had nothing to do with the movement bu It wan in the hands of the local trades unionists and the local organizers for the American Federation of Labor Continuing Mr Fahey stated that the movement would be pushed to a finish The city laborers he 0 tatedwere well pleased with the hours and increased pay but realize the importance of organizing a union The Exetutive Committee of the

men The Se Ft- sion was an executive one none but members of the committee being admitted After the meeting the committee would give out nothing but It was generally said around the hotel lobby that the committee had decided to recommend that all who are not actively engaged in newspaper work be dropped from membership and that whenever a rnember cease his connection with newspaper work hereafter he shall by that fact cease to be a member of the Tennessee Press Attsoelation A hard fight is expected to-day should the report of the Committee be as outlined above as meny of the members are not
