Mrs. Fred Gorder and children and Miss Emma Toole of Murdock HELD AUOUISILE On Account of Storm the Attend ance Was Comparatively Small at Louisville. Jack Tolliver, the Omaha light weight champion, met. Spence on the mat at Louisville last night and later referred the match be tween Gion and Schmarderer. On account of the storm the attend ance was light, although quite a number of the Plattsmouth sports went to Louisville on the special train. T. E. Parmele, promoter of the match, was detained in the western part of the state, where he was called on business a few days ago. Spence and Tolliver went on as preliminary to the event of the evening, with Gion as referee. "After about fifteen minutes of fast work Spence complained of some trouble of the ear and want ed to quit the match," said Jack Tolliver this morning, "anil I con sented to do it. But I am ready to bet 2 to 1 that I can throw Spence, although he is a tough-muscled athlete and. strong and knows the game well." Tolliver further slated that he acted as referee for the Gion Schmarderer match. The mill had been going for sixty minutes and neither man got a fall and both were worried and thirl sy and wanted a drink of water. Referee Tolliver allowed them to break holds and take a drink and rest ten minutes. Schmarderer was spitting blood and said he would wrestle but fifteen minutes more; if there was no fall he would in sist on the referee calling it a draw. The wrestlers went at it again and tugged away for fifteen minutes more and at I he end of that time Tolliver declared the match a draw, as he had agreed to do. Ho is of the opinion that the whole match will be pulled off at another time, as Gion was anxious to put up his coin. Tolliver also thinks that if Schmarderer had wrestled as much as Gion has and had the experience in the game he could undoubtedly throw Gion. Tolliver left for Des Moines, where he has a match tonight with Strickler. Next week Tol liver will wrestle with Jake Prokis, the Greek lightweight champion of the world, at St. Paul.
