He held it there for a roud or two and then it waa gone. From the banning, when Zurbrich surprised tbe apectiora with hit ability, to tbe close, whenhe gave way under pressure In the tenthround, and fouled himself out of tbe declsin, tbe fight was frequently bewildering I Its sensational developments.

It (as the Erne of old, the lightweight cbunlon, who opened the fray, brilliant In his tbtning movements, but against tlje atoll cycler bis feinting went for naught. Zurtich sparred quickly and while his wor'sbowed to no great advantage against tbeapld movements of bis adversary, be ploid along. Zurbrich was fighting well, ancjis tbe ninth round passed with Erne gtuig more and more cut up and bleeding fro. the nose and mouth as badly as his opipent, it looked any one's fight. But be anted loss of form when be crowded Erne toae ropes and laced blm badly about the bit during the clinch.

The referee caution-eihlm. A few seconds later they clinched. Ee rallied and drove some stinging cashes to the face and Zurbrich again pjched viciously In the clinch. 'You lose," cried Referee McBrlde to Jtbrlch, and he pushed Erne to bis corner, te winner. ILL YOUNG WINS AT 12 TO 1.

W. Naughton.

Arrangements for the grand amateur boxing carnival at Mechanics' Pavilion next Friday night in aid of the California Landmarks fund are progressing famously. The whole city bas become Interested, the matchmakers have had more talent placed at their disposal than they know what to do with, and everything points to an evening of sport that will be when kindred happenings have been forgotten. The news that Jim Corbett is to don his ing togs and his boxing gloves and spar three lively rounds with "Yank" Kenny comes as a pleasant surprise to ffiousanda who have long been anxious to catch a glimpse of Corbett "in battle array." On top of this, Manager John J. Gleason announces that Champion of the World James J. Jeffries has agreed to lend a helping hand.

Jeffries had arranged to leave for Los Angeles Thursday, but in order to be on hand at the Landmarks Carnival he bas delayed his departure for the south until Saturday. Champion JeffrieB, In conjunction with Corbett. will asslat Referee Eddie Graney In Judging the bouts, and with such a Jury of competents to pass upon the merits of the contests there is little fear of a wrong decision being handed down in connection with auy of the events. Other professionals who will appear at the carnival are Jimmy Brltt, Sam Berger, Eddie Hanlon, Frankie Neil, Willie Fitzgerald, Harry Foley, Alex. Oreggains, Dave Barry, J.

J. Dukelow and last, but not least. Joe Gane, the clever colored pugflist who claims supremacy over all the boxers of tbe world in the lightweight division. The card of amateur competitions Is a particularly strong one. In the heavyweight class we have Andy Gallagher and Jack Kehoe, the latter claiming the amateur championship of Australia, As Kehoe scales 225 pounds and is said by Manager Gleason to be "every Inch a fighter," It can be seen at a glance there 1 a strenuous time In store for Andy.

Gallagher, however, Is right at home in the squalliest Queensberry weather. A tapping match wouldn't appeal to him at all. He showed his quality when he slugged with William Bates at the Olympic Club tourney. It developed that Bates was a seasoned professional, who bad wormed his way Into the rompetitions through misrepresentation. Bates probably expected to win hands don when pitted against the local amateur, but he met with the surprise of his career.

The contest was of a whirlwind character from the moment the stools were whipped out of the ring, and there were tlmea when aa offer of 10 cents for Professional Bates' Interest In tbe trophy would have seemed a foolish Investment. In the" long run Bates' experience and his superior condition told in his favor and be landed the verdict by a small markin of credit He was subsequently disqualified and the chances are he will never forget the exciting time be had with Gallagher, tbe amateur. Joe Angeli, the lightweight champion of the coast has been paired with C. H. Cooper of the West Oakland Club, Who has challenged him to box for the title.

Joe Carroll, the featherweight champion, will have Dick Hyland for an opponent, while W. J. Leonard, the Olympic boxer who la kingpin of the special class, will be pitted against Paul Martin. A bout that promises well is that between Jimmy Little and Fred Landerg. Little is a crackajack 125-pounder.

lie was runner-up In the Olympic tourney and gave Champion Leonard the hardest fight of his career. He is both clever aad aggressive, and gets right down to business the Instant the bell sounds. These are but a few of the amateur. 1 contests that are to be decided. The men have been matched with especial care, and experts who have sized up the programme say that It gives promise of higher class sport than any card of amateur bouts ever before presented, in Sau Francisco.

As Inquiries in regard to tickets are numerous, it may be stated that they will be on ale at Corbett's, 64 Ellis street, on Wednesday. Posters announc lng the programme are being displayed In conspicuous places around town. The printing and get-up of these things are of an artistic character, and tbo work has been performed as a donation to the Landmarks Fund by Sterett Co. So aa not to conflict with the Landmarks Carnival, the date of the San Francisco Athletic Club's show has been advanced to Thursday night. Full particulars of this last-named entertainment will be found elsewhere.

In regard to Jim Corbett's appearance at the Carnival, patrons of the Orpheuin are Informed that It will not in any way Interfere with his turn at the popular vaudeville establishment. Corbett will be heard in his monologue at the Orpheuni Friday night as usual, and will then repair to Mechanics' Pavilion, to take part in the Carnival. W. U. TELEGRAPH PUT UNDER Bill or (Special by leased wire, the loujiwt In the world.

WASHINGTON, May 18. The American Federation of Labor has doclared "unfair" the Western Union Telegraph, Company, This action is the direct result of the discharge of two local telegraphers, members of the Telegraphers' Commercial Union, and also telegraphers in the West by the Western Union because of their unionism, and was taken after a thorough investigation at a meeting of the Executive Council of the federation held at Toronto three weeks ago. All labor organizations affiliated with the American Federation of Labor have received notification to this effect from President Gompers. Mr. Gompers, in discussing the action of the federation, said to-day; "It was proved to us beyond a doubt that members cf the telegraphers' order who were competent were discharged aim-ply because of their unionism, consequently we granted the request of the telegraphers' union that the Western Union be declared 'unfair.

The tremendous power of organized labor Is now solidly behind the effort to unionize the Western Union, and the telegraphers are sanguine of ultimate success. SHIPBUILDERS MAKE CHANGE OF DIRECTORS.
