Gans Defeats Britt
>an Francisco, Sept. 10—Joe
(Puis is the undisputed lightweight
champion of the world. Yesterday
afternoon before an enormous
crowd he won from Britt in the
fifth round, knocking the latter
out. Right from the gong the men
went at it and it was a bruising
tight right up to the finish with
the possible exception of the early
stages of the first round, when
Britt was attempting to force the
pace, and Gans was feeling him
out, But they were going some
when the gong sounded, with Britt
forcing the game. Gans really got go
ing in thesecond and the round was
his, Britts seconds cautioning him
against rushing. Gans began to
hand them out to Britt in the third
with the result that he had the
latter bleeding at the end of the
round, and getting wabbly from
some of Gans stomach blows. In
the fourth Gans went right after
his man and wound the light up
in the fifth by a clean knockout.

After Bentson’s Mine
Next to the Alaska Home Hallway
and the great Valdez boom, the priori
PhI topic of interest among the pas
sengers on the Bertha yesterday, was
regarding the sale of Beatspn’s mine.
A syndicate whose personality was un
known, but which the Prospector can
now announce was one headed by John
W dates, had an option on the mine
until Sept. *2, the price being £H,o00,000.
Whether the option had been exercised
was not. known by .Mr. Beatson when
the Bertha sailed from the mine, and
consequently many aboard were on the
quivivefor reliable news, when the
steamer arrived here. As usual there
was nothing doing.
From an exceptional authority who
left the Beatson mine and was going to
Seattle, we learn that for the past few
weeks, t here have been two gangs of
surveyors, w it h experts, at the mine,
sizing it up, and that the represents
tive of one of them informed Mr. Beat
sun that he would guarantee him £10.
OOO.iKHi, if the dates option was not
taken up. The general impression
there was that tins party represented
the duggenheims, but if was entirely
wrong, for it the figure of this party is
accepted, tin* owners can be locuted at
20 Broadway. New York.
The other parties at the mine, are
representing Montana William A.
Clark. In any event if any mine in
the country is receiving any nnue free
advertising than Beat son and his mine,
we wool I be pleased to learn its mime.
