MONDAY, AUGUST 2i. DISBANDED TOURISTS HERE FOR A FEW DAYS bis cm si CMS MD ATTEL 1 - 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.
