SAM LANGFORD DEFEATS LANG
American Negro Findi Former Am

LOSER DISQUALIFIED IN SIXTH
l.aaar Strikes l.anaford Heavily ln
Latter la Dow a and Snrn la
lleelared Winner by the
Referee,
INION. Feb. 22. Rill Lang, who once
held the heavyweight championship of Aus
tralia, as no match for Sam Langford.
the American negro. In a scheduled twenty
round bout at Olympla last night. Lang
ford won In the. sixth round when Iang was
disqualified. Tang was almost out when hs
committed the foul.
After six. fierce rounds when Langford
was down, the Australian In daxed sort
of ay rushed at tho American and struck
him. and Immediately the referee pro
claimed Langford the winner.
The Australian with all hla natural ad
vantage. Including an extra' fifty-two
pounds In weight, was hopelessly outclassed
by the negro fighter who walked Into him
and hit him from all angles when and
where be willed. Lang waa all nerves. He
seemed scared to death and he was so
groggy that, he was bound to have been put
out If he had not transgressed.
I. ana; Proves C.ame.
The only redeeming feature of Lang's
showing was his gameness In taking pun
ishment. As early as the first round. Lang
ford punched him all over the ring. In the
second the negro forced the Australian Into
a neutral corner and dropped him for a
count of nine with terrific lerts and rights to
the Jaw. Lang went down again for nine
'In the third, with a right to the point of
the Jaw, but came back In the fourth and
stood up and exchanged left and right
swings with Langford at a terrific rate.
At that period both of Lang's eyes were
almost closed and Langfor was laughing.
The Australian took a long count twlca
In the fifth, but In spite of the heavy pun
ishment he carried the fight to Langford
the next time up, and In a fast Infighting
tally put the latter down, but this waa mora
by accident than anything else. Lang waa
greatly excited and pretty hazy by this
time, and he rushed his opponent, striking
him heavily before langford could regain
his feet.

tt.ecries; some mere guesses and surmises.
"There Is only one" kind of answer that
should stand, or. that should count In this
case. That is the plain matter of fact,
simple truth. It Is this matter of fact,
this truth, thst I purpose to lay before tha
senate today. The legal argument and ab
stract deduction are beyond my purpose."
"I rise today simply to tell, as one who
lived through 'It all, exactly how my elec
tion at Springfield was brought about to
answer the foregoing questions with tha
fucts, and J alone can answer them cor
rectly." Orslnlsatlon of Legislator.
Having outlined the general course of hla
remarks, Mr. Lorlmer said there had been

the governor had gone ao far as to tell

Mr. Lorimrr said he could not reply fully, j

: vestigatlng committee. j
1 Mr. lit) burn prote-led against the ques-
j tloit. but Mr. lorlmer declared he did not .
object to questions. .
Quoting Mr. Crawford a allegation that
I , - j . . -
I he bad organised tna legislature to oe.t.
Ieneen. Mr. Ixulmer said that or iwt-m .-.
renuLilca oa who voted for Shurtleff
for speaker eeveetoeo had at ou UM
in the contest voted for Hopkins for sen
ator. "If the theory that I had been staving
up nights and conjuring up ' dark-lantern
scheme) be true, how can you prova It by
this record?" he asked. ,
'Suppose that a president of the I'nlted
States should csll In the senator of his
party and tell them whom be wanted for
president protem. of the senate and that
unless they did hla biding they Would get
no patronage; that every last man em
ployed should be dismissed.
"Suppose a president should fall so low
and that he succeeded In getting a majority
to the exclusion of one man, what do you
suppose would be done? Why. It would not
take a day to Induce the senators to cross
ths party line and organise. The Illinois
legislature did what any sensible ' men
would do they crossed the party line and
organised.
"If the governor had attended to his own
business Mr. Rhurtleff would have been
elected by a unanlmo'W party vote."
Mr. Lorlmer defended the speaker against
thr.chargfs of corruption. He said that
In helther of bis previous 'terms had he
assisted Shurtleff. "He owes me nothing;
t ' was not on more t han speaking terms
When he went to Springfield to Bfc'.ir
waterway legislation. Tn view of these
facta that he should be known as my
henchman Is the most absurd charge that
I ever heard made In the senate or In any
other body."
Mr. Lorlmer declared that t was untrue
that Shurtleff had been electtd at his
(Lorlmer's) Instance. On the contrary, he
was Hopkins' candidate and was chosen
by that gentleman's' frit ads tn the Illinois
nous.
Shurtleff had pledged his support for ths
senate to a personal friend of his, but,
notwithstanding this fact, had ben chos-n
speaker because of hla atandlng. Mr.
Lorlmer also .contended that Shurtleff had
beon a fr enl of Hopkit a ard tpported him
In his first campaign for the senate.
Tells Pew Partlcofara. ,
Mr. Lorlmer said that In turn he had
discussed with the governor the advisability
of electing to the senate one of the several
membera of the national house of repre
sentatives and that Mr. Bhurtleff's name
had been brought In. It was at this Junc
ture that his own name had been mentioned
and the governor had consulted several
newspaper men. who he declared were with
Mr. Deneen all-powerful.
Among otheres. the then ed' of the
Chicago Record-Herald had b Inter
viewed, he said. That man had ald. ac
cording to Mr. Lorlmer, while he could not
agree to support Mr. Lorlmer. he would
make no objection to Governor Deneen
joining In his support.
Quoting this editor further, Mr. Lorlmer
had him saying that he had opposed Lorl
mer for so long a time that ha could not
so abruptly change his position, Still, this
editor had added the observation that Lorl
mer was the on republican In Llllnois who
could afford to be elevated to the senate
with the aid of democratic votes; this on
tha ground that Lorlmer had lived In a
democratic community and had been elected
to congress through the assistance of dem
ocrats. "That la a true statement of the facts,"
said Lorlmer, "a true history of the sena
torial election tn Illinois. Does It show
that months before the election I was con
juring up a schema for tha election of a
henchman as speaker and through the
powers of the office undertaking to foist
mvself upon this house?"
Reverting to Senator Root's remarks con
cerning th democrats yotea cast tor hlro
Mr. Lorlmer said: . , v . '
"History Is teeming with testimony
about men who were elected by votes of the
opposlt party." '
r He Received Democratic Votes.
Mr. Lorlmer recited the history of the
agitation in favor of the lakes-to-the-gulf
deep water way project, In which he was
a leader. Hh showed how It brought him
Into Intimate contact with men of all par
ties and Bald:
"My work for this project Is on of the
reasons for my receiving the votes of the
democrats." '
Turning to another point In Senator
Root's speech before the senate, the
speaker agreed that he was In Springfield
at the time he was electel canator. His
presence, he said, was to urge upon the
legislature the passage of a law to carry
Into effect the constitutional amendment
for which he has been working so long.
Tha names of many democrats ver men
tioned as among those who had voted for
him because of personal friendship. Among
these was Senator Broderlck. who, Mr.
Lorlmer said, had been his friend for many
years, even when "newspaper assassins of
character" wer th n, as since, trying to
destroy him.
"I never got one vote under false pre

was ever deceived Into ih belief that 1
wonld co-operate with th democrats In
congress. So it was not through deception
that any of them toted for me." '
Th esenator related some Incidents to ac
count for hie democratic friendships. Moat
dramatic was his recital of his first ac
quaintance with Alderman "Hlnky Dink"
Kenna, who, when Lorlmer was a boot
black and new sboy, came to his rescue and
saved him from th loss ot a bundle of
Chicago Tribunes.
It meant a loss of , $150 to him, the
speaker said, and "that dollar and a half
meant more' to' me, Senator Hoot, than a
million dollars would mean to some men
now. I . don't know whether the senator
from New York (Mr. Root) or the senator
from South Dakota (Mr. Crawford) know
what It means to come up through cir
cumstances like that."
Crawford Sarcastic.
Senator Cram ford rose to his feet, inter
est was Intense, Kvery person In the gal
leries leaned forward; many rose.
"Mr. Prealdent. does the senator imagine
himself the only . senator who cimie up
through hardship and poverty? Ia he ap
pealing for sympathy on that score?
"I want no sympathy," shouted Senator
Lorlmer. A great, sigh passed over th
senate chamber.. ' 1
"Hlnky Dink" Kenna, It appear, . was
tbe democratic leader In the district repre
sented by Assemblyman John Griffin. Mr.
Ixrlmer explained how thla lifelong friend
ship led Kenna to promise and deliver the
vote ot Griffin tor Lorlmer.
"If this senate," continued Mr. Lorlmer,
with a swing ol bis body taking In the
whole room, can believe me to be the low,
vile creature tnat the senator from New
York and th senator from South Dakota,
and other senators who have attacked m

eyes of Senator Beverldge across the aisle)
there Is a plain duty staring you In th
face, regardless of th testimony, regard

"If I could be the foul wretch that these
senators hav sought to paint me, 1 should
b driven from yonder door, branded with
the stamp of Infamy. Oh! no I am not
pleading for sympathy. I am trying to re
late the . truth of my election aa It was
and not as the senators from New York
and South Dakota would have this senate
believe."
Mr. Lorlmer, still dramatically relating his
personal experiences in - Chicago, traced
"Manny" Abraham's friendship for him to
th Interest h had shown In the welfare
of the Jewish peddlers and others of that
race.
"Senator Root referred to 'Manny' Abra

before I select a bellwether."
This sally at the expense of the Wiscon
sin senator ciyised a burst of laughter whlchH
did not soon subside.
Thirty-four democrats, Mr. Loilnirr
said, voted for him because they were his
personal friends and not because they
were "delivered" by Lee O'Ncll Browne.
"Why, he did not deliver them: they de
livered him. They would have voted for
me for pcisonal reasons. Seventeen or
nineteen would have voted for mc if 1
hnd been a candidate from the beginning,
ex en though Ie O'Ncll Browne had la
bored with them not to do so."
The senator took up the remarks baned
on his having been In the speaker's room
at Springfield when the legislature was
electing a senator. This room be de
scribed more as a smoking room than as a
chamber of privacy.
After slating that his first vote had
been cast for James G. Blaine for presi
dent. Mr. Lorlmer said he had been get
ting democratic votes ever aince.
Mr. Lorlmer closed this part of hla sub
ject with the declaration that no democrat
had ever voted for blni except for "pure
and unadulterated friendship."
He asserted that he had received In bis
district 8,600 more votes thsn President
Tsft.
"Is that an evidence of corruption ?" de
manded the senator. "If so, I have a trail
of democratic votes following me for the
last quarter century. If I had bought
them It would have cost me million of
dollars.

"If senators even suspect that I did
have knowledge of corruption In any de
gree I am very' sorry, becaus. on my
word as a man, ther never has been a
time that I hav been guilty of tha act,
and I never did glv or know of any per

With this peroration Mr. Loiiuter closed
his speech, which evidently had made a
derp Impression upon tbe crowds of spetta
tora whether or not upon the senators, who
will have to vote upon his rase. Applause
broke forth In the galleries when he fin
ished. It met with the inevitable rebuke of
Vice President Sherman In the chair.
Senator Beverldge had been expected to

the motion long enough for Mr. Beverldge

RHEUMATISM
YiEAR KIDNEYS &THIN BLOOD
Not only ia the blood the great
nourishing source of our systems, but
equally as important is its wotk. of
removing the waste of oxcxlized tis
sues which have been consumed in
force and bodily heat. This waste is
filtered out through the kidneys.
When, however, the kidneys become
weak and unable to perform their
regular duties, tlje waste is allowed
to remain in the circulation, soon
forming uric acid which destroys the
greater portion of nourishing elements
of the blood and leave it weak and
acrid. This ;mperfect blood deposits
into the different muscles and joints
the uratic impurity with which it is
contaminated. Then the pains and
aches of Rheumatism commence. The
gritty formation which uric acid
causes collects in the joints and pro
duces the aches and tiffness which
always accompany the disease. Like
wise the muscles are coated and lose
their elasticity, while the continual
Irritation to the nerves produces swell
ing and inflammation of the flesh.
