A POST-MORTEM OF
THAT "BIG RA8SLE"
Melady Suggests Orapplers Be
Compelled to Finish Bout
Before They Collect.
DECIDE ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
BY FRED S. HUNTER.
That Joe Stecher and Edwin
(Strangler) Lewis continue their
match until one or the other was de
clared a winner, two falls oflt of
three, as per the articles of agree
ment, was a suggestion made yester
day by Gene Melady, who promoted
the event which proved so unsatis
factory to the large assembly of fans
who paid out their hard-earned coin
to tee the grapplers engage in a slow
and tedious five-hour draw.
' Melady made his suggestion yester
day noon at a two-hour conference
between Melady, Referee Ed Smith,
Joe Hetmanek, Billy Sandow, Stran
gler Lewis and the three Omaha
newspaper men who covered the
match.
In making his suggestion, Melady
explained he wanted to do that which
would please the public.
"I live in Omaha" said Melady.
"The match was a disappointment.
And while it was no fault of mine,
I may be made the goat. I have
earned a reputation as a promoter of
clean sport. It is up to me to pro
tect my name; it's the only thing I
possess. And in order to protect my
name I must protect the public, and
that's what I intend to do, no matter
what the cost.
"If it ia the consensus of opinion
here," continued Melady, , "that this
match ahould be continued, it shall
be continued, or I will not give the
wrestler a penny.
' Charge No Admission.
"I will stage the continuation at
the fair grounds tomorrow or the
next day and I'll make them wrestle
until one or the other wins. And I
won't charge a cent of admission. All
I want to do is give the public a fair
shake. It's the public I'm thinking
of, not the wrestlers, nor the merits
of the match."
For two hours Melady's proposition
was discussed pro and con by those
attending the conference. Joe Het
manek declared he and Stecher
were willing to do whatever Melady
thought was right, and that they
would grant the proposed continua
tion. While he disapproved of the
suggestion, Lewis also said he would
continue.
Smith Disagrees.
But Referee Smith took the other
tack. He declared Melady's propo
sition was too fair. "If a ball game
goes eighteen innings to a tie, no
body wants to see the continuation
next day, and if the game is played
over they pay again," said Smith.
Also the match was ended Tuesday
night. Every added minute jeopar
dized the health of the wrestlers. And
neither one could wrestle further.
I do not believe resumption, of the
match advisable."' :; V
v Public Had Enough.;' r. .
The three newspaper men had
other ideas ; on the subject, "The
world has had enough and couldn't
digest any more," was the verdict of
the scribes, "
Therefore, the belief being the re
sumption would be of similar char
acter to what had gone before, it
was decided to write thirty and ring
down the curtain on the whole
doings.
Referee Smith, explaining his ac
tion in calling the bout a draw, made
the following statement for the
press:
"Regarding the present controversy
over my decision of a draw in the
wrestling match yesterday afternoon
between Joe Stecher and Ed Lewis
at the Melady stadium at the Douglas
county fair grounds, I wish to make a
brief statement,
VlalatlAftvAf Arttelaa.
"My decision of a draw at the end
. of nearly five hours of wrestling by
the contestants was in direct violation
of the articles of agreement drawn
up by Promoter Gene Melady and
signed by both contestants, inasmuch
as there is a clause in those articles
which stipulates distinctly that "this
contest shall not terminate in a foul
or draw, but must be wrestled to a
finish.".
"That clause, generally speaking
and under ordinary circumstances,
would be all right, but an unusual
condition developed at the close of
this contest and that condition called
for unusual action. : To my way of
thinking this match was to all intents
and purposes finished when both
contestants became so exhausted that
further wrestling would have devel
oped nothing and might possibly
have terminated in permanent and
possibly fatal injury to one or the
other.
. "In the name of all humanity the
match was over and in this view that
i tooK i was upnem oy several promi
nent physicians who noted carefully
the condition of the men. They were
for having it discontinued some time
before I disregarded the articles of
agreement and took arbitrary action.
i ney completely approved and upheld
my action.
Melady' Fair Offer.
'Mr. Melady has made to me and
the contestants one of the best and
faireat sporting propositions I ever
saw or heard of. He ia willing to
atage a continuation of the match at
the same place and under as nearlv
similar conditions as possible and ad
mit the public free to see it. Nothing
xaircr cuuiu possiDiy oe suggested,
but personally I can see little in a
continuation of the match. It would
be the same thing over attain.
"A I have said, as far as I am con
cerned, the match was a finished af
fair when it became all too apparent

The stipulation in the article regard-
. ing fouls is peculiar and certainly I,
as referee of the match, never would
have given it a thought had there
' been any fouling of a serious nature
oy either ot the contestants. The en.
tire situation was chanired bv the ne.
culiar manner' in which the match
; was wrestled.

of the match would serve the purpose

at which he aims. The judge of play
in this case, as in the cases of umpires
in ball games and referees in glove
contests, exceeds hi authority when
he dictate to contestants the style or
method of their play, unless in his
opinion he sees some dishonesty. In
this case there was no dishonesty
charged or hinted at.
"All thing considered, I earnestly
advise an abandonment of all plans
looking to a resumption of the con'
test at this time."
Everybody Dissatisfied, '
About the only topic of conversa
tion in Omaha yesterday was the
Stecher-Lewis match, and there
wasn't a satisfied customer to be
found. Everybody was peevish about
the outcome and predictions that the
wrestling fraternity would do well to
give Omaha a wide berth in the fu
ture were frequent.
Lewis, of course, came In for most
of the panning. The large majority
absolved Stecher from all blame and
declared Lewis ran away from Joe.
Others upheld Lewis and said he
showed Joe up.
Lewis Played Own Game.
But setting aside all prejudice and
taking an unbiased view of the whole
affair, both wrestlers had their share
in the disappointing results. Of
course, frm the standpoint of the
public Lewis is due for the panning.
But from the Lewis standpoint it was
a Lewis match.. The Strangler was
perfectly within his right when h
played his defensive game. He went
into the ring with the view of keep
ing away from Stecher until the end.
He accomplished his purposei To
Lewis himself it was a Lewis victory.
And it will mean thousands of dol
lars to the Strangler. He can flood
the east and the south where he is
a favorite, with publicity from Tues
day' match. And it will mean money
in the Lewis Coffers. Lewis killed
himself as far as Nebraska Is con
cerned. He beat the public to win
for himself. And although any man
in- the world probably would have
adopted similarly distasteful tactics to
meather his own nest, very few paid
out their money to see the match
wilt have much beside abuse for
Lewi. . . .
On the other hand Stecher found
himself completely baffled by the
Strangler. Try as he did, he could
not penetrate that defense. After
the match Joe admitted Lewis was too
strong for him, thst he couldn't get
behind him.
But there was one thing noticeable
in the conversation of the fans yes
terday. Not a man disputed the in
tegrity of the match. Not a voice
was heard to suggest a fake. Every
body granted that both Stecher and
Lewis wrestled absolutely on the
square. And that is something at
least.

Club Editor Sees Endurance Contest;
Now She Wonders What Is a Draw
BY ELLA FLEISHMAN.
"Stecher' got to pin both of Lewis'
shoulders to the mat. He'll do it in
no time. That's a wrestling match."
With no other introduction to
wrestling lore than this laconic ex-
planation ot a scotting spor'ing editor,
I picked out a blouse to match Gene
Melady's and Joe Hetmanek'a checked
suit and went out to the scene of
the wreal , no it wasn't, either. The
real wrestling match the sporting ed.
had promised developed into an en
durance contest which rivaled the
Eurooean war in duration, at least.
so the hungry, thirsty, faithful-to-the-
last-moment crowd made up their
mind.
'Pooh I There nothing much to
know about this wrestling game, It's
a gam of 'what'U he do next?' so far
as I can see. Our Joe and Strangler
Ed are acting up like a couple of
playful kittens," thought I to myself
a I caught the dreamy look in Joe's
eye and the insouciant smile of the
Kentucky Strangler when they started
out in their four-hour sparring bout.
"I wonder what the sport, ed. meant
by daring me to cover this story
It he thinks this is work, I'll dare
him to write up the next big society
wedding that comes off."
But many minutes the "playful kit
tens" olayed, and Stecher didn't "out
on the scissors," as I expected.
Neither did Lewis do any strang
ling," as I was led to believe he would,
judging by his sobriquet. Only his
head seemed to have found a com
fortable resting Dlace just in the hol
low of the Dodge county pride's
shoulder, and that' the way he posed
most of the time.
Pretty soon I began to wonder why
ope of them didn't do something. Evi
dently the crowd got the same bril
liant thought, too, for they began to
howl and express their desire to have
something happen, too. A band mas
ter with a sense of humor began the
strains of such suggestive tunes as
"W iWon't Go Home Until Morn-
Big
Bill Hokuff
Hurls Challenge
At the Strangler
Big Bill. Hokuff has hurled a chal
lenge to Strangler Lewis, who stayed
almost five, hours with Joe Stecher
Tuesday.
Carl Marfisi, Hokuff's manager, yes
terday offered to wrestle his charge
against Lewis for $500, and said the
receipts might be distributed any way
Twia aiic'GrRtr1 i
"Hokuff can throw Lewis," said'
Marfisi. Omaha never has taken Bill
seriously, but he's a real wrestler and
we're anxious to prove it. He can
throw the Strangler and we'll risk $500
on it. We'll split the receipts any
way, or we'll give them to charity. We
don't care about the money, we merely
want to show that Nebraska has an
other real wrestler in Hokuff."
Joe Stecher Taken

Joe Stecher became a member of,
the Omaha Athletic club yesterday

The entire membership committee
swooped down on Joe yesterday after

ing,"- ''How Dry I Am," and "The

ire of the two gladiators in the ring
long enough for them to really start
something.
Lewis caught at Stecher'a leg, but
miffed it. (sentence borrowed from
sport, ed.'s vocabulary.)
But the faint gleam of interest died
out of Joe's eyes, as did the blood in
the eye of Lewis, and once more the
playful kittens were at it.
When the crowd began to howl
some more, the boy from Dodge re
sponded to the extent of deliberately
inviting; Strancler Ed to wrestle him.
Three or four times he turned his back
to Lewis and, kneeling on the mat,
invited the Kentuckian to climb on
his back. It was just as if anyone
would say, "Come, little one, here's
your chance," but, of course, Joe
doesn't extend verbal invitations.
Bless you, no, He never talks unless
he wants something. Then he asks
for it in words of one syllable and
shuts up like a clam. He didn't utter
one word all through those weary
hour yesterday, not even when the
eay KentUckian taunted him with
What do you think of a Gotch-Lewis
match?" in the early moment of the
iray.
"Make him wrestle I Make him
wrestle I" urged the excited mob of
the perspiring referee, Ed Smith, who
is the double of a well-known Omaha
brewer seen in a nndside box.

located in the basement of the court

"There is a misunderstanding
among most men regarding the time
for which thev are reauired to enlist,"
said Corporal Brown. "They seem to
think it is three years. It is not. It
is for such a time as the present un
settled conditions may continue,
whether it be three month or three
year or aix years. The president may
muster the volunteers out again at any
time he sees fit.
Must Become Hardened.
"It Is important, however, 'to get
men in now so that they may become
hardened to soldier life and be of the
greatest service if war doe come,"
Among the recruits was John R.
