Ton.mlo . White of Chicago nn < l Dick Green
of Slotu City , before the Lenox Athletic
club of this city , \\t\s decided by George
Slier , referee , In favor of White , although
thrj decision did not null the crowd. The
contest was alow and uninteresting. The
flght had attracted n big crowd.
White and Orccn both sparred the first
round , but Green's tactics were aggressive
and In the third round he knocked Whlto
down. Ho was down four seconds and nroso
weak The next round ho came out fresh
agnln. The rest of the control was about
even , but Whlto won on points.
A preliminary live-round go between Lou
Agnew , White's ' trainer , and George Wilson ,
was won by Agnew , who sent his man to the
corner reeling.

NEW YOHK , Dec. 29 Kid Broad of
Cleveland got a well-earned decision o\er
Jack Hamilton of Troy , through the latter'a
foul tactics at the Broadway Athletic club
tonight
Broad was alvvavs on the aggressive and
Hamilton made 11 more than good defense
Tor round after round , from the Hi at to the
fifth , Hamilton gave and took with equ il
fervor , but In the sixth he was knocked
ll.it on his back and the gong sa\cd him.
From this to the end of the bout Bro.id
spread It o\er his man
At all times his l'-s and rights were In
evidence and ho kept the Trojan on the de
fensive Jack was thoroughly game , but
It was evident from the end of the seven
teenth that he could not withstand the on
slaughts of his adversary , and from that
point to the conclusion of the bout Hamil
ton never had a chance of retrieving him
self.
In the tvvonty-flrst round , seeing that the
odds were against him , Hamilton tried foul
tnct'cs , but evaded the referee's stigma It
came In the following round , when he de
liberately butted twice and the referee
stopped the bout , disqualifying Hamilton
and declaring In favor of Broad.

his usual aggressive tactics , winning out
by his superior hitting powers and the In
ability of Jlorlarlty to successfully avoid
the- terrible right and left jabs.
Parker frequently had his man at his
mercy , but Moriarlty was game and took
a fearful lot of punishment. Earlv In the
tenth round Parker landed a left hook on
Morlarlty's wind and the latter was
counted out. Parker was strong at the
end and his In-lighting wore out the Bos-
