Exponents of Queensbury
Pastime Sparred Nice
Match at Crolls, Alame
da, in presence of a Pack
ed Enclosure.
(By W. W. Naughton.)
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.—The an
nouncement that - Joe Cans and Abo
Attel were to spar at Crolls, Ala
meda, caused Sunday stght-seers to
descend upon the place in such crowds
as to cause some wreckage.
Although 3 o’clock was hour
set for the sport to begin, a crowd
gathered before noon. By 1 o'clock
landlord Croll became uneasy and
telegraphed Oakland for a squad of
police to maintain order. By 2 o’clock
the hall where the fistic exercises
were to take place was crowded to
the suffocating point, while by far the
largest number of visitors wandered
around the garden. They were shut
out and they tried to comfort them
selves with the reflection that they
were in he neighborhood, anyhow.
A regulation ring, with ropes and
stakes and padded floor had been
erected, and Gans and Attel had some
difficulty jn reaching the enclosure
owing to the mass of perspiring hu
manity that hedged it in.
When the clever exponents of
Queensberry pastime began to tap
one another they did so to the ac
companiment of crumbling benches.
Joe and Abe treated each other
nicely, although there were a few
brief spells when eacn man was on
h.a mettle. Attel kept finding the
stomach with a curved left when they
began to box and Joe paid attention
to the face, sending in light, straight
left and right crosses. It was very
clever play on botn sides.
