CMS KNOCKED OUT FOR KEEPS
(United Press Telegraph-Cable Service.)
San Francisco, Sept. 10. ? The battle between Nelson
aud Gans yesterday attracted a great crowd, among which
was many women. The njen stepped into the ring at about
2:45. Neither had come down to the required weight of
183 pounds. '
At tliH sound of the gong both men waded in with little
preliminary skirmishing, being apparently out for blood.
The engagement was severe and the gopg saw both men
suffering already the effects of a terrific beating.
From this time on the honors were about even until
the eighteenth round, the lighting being fast and furious
to that time. Then Gans, who had been making a better
showing than he had done even in the last encounter, be
gan to show signs of tiring, lie succeeded iu landing sev
eral blows on the Dane's jaw looking for a knockout but
they lacked the necessary force.
In the twentieth round Nelson began to show superior
ity. He forced Gans around the ring, the latter apparently
helpless against the Pane's onslaughts. At the opening of
the 21st Nelson at once started things. Gans fell against
the ropes at the first attack and Nelson forced him to the
floor. Gans attempted to rise but the timekeeper had
rounded out the count before he could get to his feet and
declared him out.
Nelson was as strong as at the beginning while Gans
was exhausted, his face was beaten to a jell}.
Gans accepts his defeat as final. He says it is his last
ffght. Eddy Smith was referee. The betting stood 10 to (5
in favor of Nelson.

A Washington despatch to the P..L
from It* correspondent, Walter Clark,
says:
The cause of the removal from office
of George G. Porry, United State* mar
shal for tbe third Ala--ka division, Is a
mystery In Washington.
The action was taken upon the order
of the president by Attorney General
I'.onaparte, who Is at Lenox, Maxs.,
where he will remain for the ne?t two
woeks.
The manner of the removal was most
uDuaual, for It la to take effect "upon
the appointment of his successor." In
other respects the order of removal was
summary, no charges having been pre
sented to Marshal Perry, so far ns
known here, and no hearing having
been given. It is usual, when a federal
officer is to he separated from the iter
vice, but who is retained temporarily
until his successor cau be appointed, to
give him an opportunity to resign pend
ing such appointment. No appointment
to succeed Marshal Perry hns been
made. The continuance of the marshal
In office subsequent to the order of re
moval and pending the appointment of
his successor, 1m somewhat inconsistent
wiih the assumed gravity of an offense
which ;ed to summary action, and this
circumstance adds to the present mys
tery surround. n# the rase. Marshal
Ferry has served naarly eight years.
His second term would have expired
next Febtuary.
