Crowd Arrives Early.
Seldom haa a sporting- evc;it of almllar
character aroused so much interest In Chi
cago and the surrounding cities aa did tha
. bl wrestling match between George
Rackcnarhmldt and Frank Gotch. All day
visitors wera arriving from outside points.
Mora than a arore came from Gotch a homa
town, Humboldt, la., almost 2"0 came from
Kansas City and a bis delegation from Mil
waukee, while Bt. Paul, Minneapolis,
i Omaha, Indianapolis, Detroit. Bt. Iuls,
Cincinnati and arorea cf amallnr towna wera
represented. Added to these , were-thou-anda
of Chlragoans.
The crowd began arriving early, but the
lack of the usual early rush and scramble
for aeata waa noticeable. Half nn hour
before the doors were- or"?-.! there were
llues a block long waiting before the en
trance to the big building. By the time
the preliminary bout whs begun the big
' building waa nearly half full and streams
of spectators gave no Indication of di-
, mlnlshlng. The building waa admirably
adapted for the event. Scats had been pro
vided for T),000 spectatora and In addition
there waa general admission room for 2.000
more. The structure Is 200 feet wide and
110 feet long, the arena in the center of
which the ring waa pitched being 210 feet
long and 100 feet wide. Back of this and
running around the building were tier
of aeata which extended back In the big
building. A battery of twelve arc1 lights
and fifty vapor lampa illuminated the
tago.
W. W. Wlttlg, who promoted the bout
and brought Hackenachmidt from Europe,
had mado arrangements for entertaining
the crowd before the match began. A band
of fifty pieces played popular alia and
marches and kept the waiting thousand
in good humor.
Preliminary Bouta.
The flrat preliminary was scheduled for
8:30 o'clock, but it was fifteen minutes laU
in atartlng. Tommy Rooney and Young
Jenkins were the contestants, the Weight
being 118 pounds. Rooney won in eight
minutes and forty-five seconds.
In the second preliminary Young Billlter
downed Ernest Lindberg in 14:32. The men
were 13 pounders.
The program brought Ted Tenneman and
Dick Torrenson together In the third at 14S
pounds. Torrenson won with a toe hold.
Time: 12:41.
"Amerlcus," a Baltimore wrestler, made
short work of Harry Laudenback of, Chi
cago, winning in 1:59, with a bar lock and
crotch hold.
William Demetral won the fifth bout,
defeating Mort Henderson In 8:10.
In the aeml-wlndupEmll gtegemueller,
Hackenachmldt's wrestling partner agreed
to throw Henry Ortmann of Minneapolis In
ten minutes. To the delight of the crowd
Ortmann took the offensive. He slammed
the burly German to the mat and for seven
minutes gave Btegemueiler no chance to
get a hold The last thj-ee minutes Ort
matin was on the defensive, but managed
to wriggle out of all holds and easily stayed
the limit. He waa roundly cheered.
Hackensohmldt entered the ring at 10:14
p. m. Gotch followed three minutes later.
The principals and referee, Edward W.
Smith, were photographed in a half doieti
posit lona. Then the men were called for
final Instructions. Time was called at 10:28,
Bis Boat Begins.
Hackenachmidt crouched and they
.epsrred, with Gotch circling around. This
Jockeying continued three minutes, then
Hack clinched, but they broke again. Gotch
eemed nervoua, but the champion waa cool
After ten mlnutea of tugging Gotch started
to rough It and Hack kept his temper with
difficulty.
Hackenachmidt finally tried for a body
. grip, but could not reach Gotch, The Rua
alan complained to the referee about Gotch
butting. He missed a leg hold next. A
half hour of hauling and sparring failed to
satlafy the crowd.
Fifty minutes after the bout started
Hackenachmidt slapped Gotch to the mat.
The latter bounded tn his feet and the
pulling and hauling continued. An old cut
under Hack's left eye was opened and bled
profusely.
Both missed leg and body holds, Gotch
taking, tho offensive for the first time.
One hour'after the start nothing approach
ing a hold had been gained by either man.
Fifteen minutes more of the tiresome
work followed. Then Hackenachmidt sud
denly attacked with fury. But Gotch wrig
gled away and the shoulder to shoulder
tactics began again.'
Gotch' a defensive work punled Hacken
sohmldt' completely. After an hour and
three-quarters of fruitless attempts to get
a hold he straightened up and looked at
his opponent with dlaguat written In every
feature,
"Come on, wrestle," said Gotch.
The crowd cheered the American.
At 12:15 Hackenachmidt asked the referee
to call it a draw, but referee Smith told
them to continue. They wrestled all over
the ring, then went down, Gotch on top.
Hackenachmidt allpped from a toe hold.
Hackenachmidt kept his feet well away
Crom Ootch's fingers. Hackenachmidt
struggled free, but Gotch caught him for
flying fall which he could not hold.
Because of one report of the match pub
llshed In Omaha announcing that Ootch
had "safely and securely" pinned Hack's
shoulders to the mat with a crotch hold,
much discussion has arisen as to whether
It was a fall or not. The Bee's original re
port said It was not. It may be of Inter
est to note that every Chicago paper which
came to Omaha laat night (the early edl
tlona had nothing) confirmed this report
saying Sack's shoulders were not on the
claim the middleweight title now held
by the Illinois boer, as soon as he has
met a few other coast middleweight, and
then will try some of the light heavy
weights, such as Jim Flynn.

The Kangaroos deserve a great deal of

they have played during the last season
have they received anything but praise for
the way they conducted themselves, both

HUFF OF GREINE1L MAY BE OUT
Honey
Allegation He Competed for
and la Profeaalonal.
IOWA CITY, April 4.-8pecla!.)-It now
seems Inevitable that the Iowa Collegiate
association will be called on to pass on the
eligibility of the foremost track athlete In
the state before the state meet on May 29.
Harry Huff of Orlnnell Is the man who
will be In the limelight when the Investi
gation begins and the decision of the au
thorities on the point may have far-reach
ing consequences, even to barring the
speedy Orlnnell man from the Olymplo
games and Impairing the chances of the
American team to win the honors of that
event.
Huff is undoubtedly In a clsss by him
self In the west and was the winner of
the 100-yard event at Jamestown last year
over Dan Kelly of Oregon. A rumor of
diminutive proportions started aome weeks
ago to the effect that Huff is barred on
two counts from the state event. It is al
leged on good authority that he la on the
pay roll of the oollege, being Hated In the
catalogue of the institution as an Instructor
In commercial branches. If this charge la
proven it will bar him from competition in
the state meet under the rules of the state
association. But the most serious charge
is to the effect that Huff waa a member
of a hose team in the Dakota last sum
mer and ran for money in several races.
A decision against Huff on the count will
stamp him a professional under the rules
of all athletlo organisations and will dls.
qualify him from competing In the tryouts
for the Olymplo games. Several of the
colleges of the state have taken the mat
ter up and the rumor Is now developing
Into a demand for an investigation. Grln
nell says nothing and Huff is silent on the
question. With Huff out Orlnnell will lose
at least eight points at the state meet and
as many or more in the conference event
in Chicago. Thla will be enough to shift
the dope on winners, requiring a new card
entirely. Miller of Iowa is the logical suc
cessor of Huff ln the state meet and the
Iowa relay teams seem to have It on the
rest of the schools with Orlnnell out of the
running. The track fans of the university
are seeing visions of first at the state
meet if Huff goes out and the same may be
said of Drake and Ames.

CAMBRIDGE WINS FROM OXFORD
For Third Year In Succession I.larht
Hloes Take Boat Raee.
PUTNEY, England, April 4.-For the third
year In succession Cambridge today won the
varsity boat race, defeating Oxford by the
handsome margin of about two and a half
lengths. The light blues the Cambridge
crew fully Justified the confidence reposed
in them by the riverside experts, and forged
to the front from the crack of the pistol
and led from start to finish.
The result never was ln doubt. In spite
of the advantage of the dark blues the Ox
ford men In winning the toss, which en
abled them to choose the Surrey side of the
river and thus escape much of the heavy
water at the start, the extra stamina of the
Cambrlde men quickly sent the nose of
their boat ahead and enabled them to as
sume a lead which they held comfortably
to the end. ,
The crews got off to a splendid start, but
the quicker stroke of D. C. R. Stuart of
the Cambridge crew, who sot the rate at 40
for the first minutes, against Oxford's S3,
soon put the supporters of the light blues
at ease. At Beverley Brook Cambridge had
already gained an advantage of half a
length and at Craven Steps (he light blues
wore a full length In front of, and steadily
drawing away from, their opponents.
The uniform sliding and the greater
length of the stroke of the light blues con
tinued to tell, and In shooting under Ham
mersmith bridge there was a full length
and a half between the boats. At this point
Stuart gave his crew a breather, and A. C.
Gladstone, the Oxford stroke, called on his
men for an effort. Quickening his stroke
to 33 to the minute, as against Cambridge's
32, Gladstone slowly lessened the gap to a
length and a quarter. But this advantage
was only on sufference. Whon Stuart was
ready he set his men going again and the
Cambridge crew quickly shook off their op
ponents. Pulling strongly, steadily and well
within themselves, the light blues shot past
Thorneyoroft's three lengths ahead, and
held about the same lead to Barnes bridge.
After passing this point they rowed with
out apparent effort and passed the finish
post the easiest (of victors by a distance
given out officially aa two and a half
lengths.
The Oxford men. who had gamely rowed
a loalng race, were much distressed at the
finish.
The offlolal times are as follows: At the

Ketchel says he is glad that Papke won hla
tight with Kelly at Milwaukee. Ketchel Is
ready to slgrn with Papke. ' He said so the
other night. "It made no dlfferenoe which

Ketchel. "In fact. I am glad that Papke
won out, for I think we would draw the

or the first week in May would be the best
time for us. There will be a lot of
strangers ln the city then to see the fleet."
Ketchel asserted that lie was free to sign
with the club offering the most money.
Jimmy Coffrota or no one else had any
strings on hlra, so he declared. The Indi

will have some competition for the Papke-
