Louisville Wrestler No Match for
Oscar Wasem, and Fact Was
Soon Demonstrated.
Frank Schmarderer, the much
vaunted Louisville wrestler, met
defeat last night in two straight
falls at the hands of Oscar Was
em, state champion. The match
was refereed by Farmer Burns.
The first round was completed in
35 minutes, when the Omaha
athlete forced the Louisville
boy's shoulders to the mat. The
second round lasted but 19 min
utes. It is said Schmarderer's back
ers were much disappointed at the
outcome of the match and left the
hall quite crestfallen. A large
crowd witnessed the match, it
having been extensively adver
tised. No special train was run
from Plattsinoulh on this occas-
sion, yet some of the admirers of
the sport from this city witness
ed the match. Mr. Clifford of
Louisville, who was in the citv
yrday, predicted a good match,
a ""larderer had wrestled with
Wasem in their training and had
been able to prevent Wasem
throwing him.
