ROSE He Knew He Was Beaten and Pre- ferred To Take the Uount In 26th' Round Rather Than Be Knocked Down Again. Havana, April 6.--Jack Johnson, ex- ile from his' own country, yesterday lost his claim as the heavyweight hs tic champion .of the world, the title being wrested from him by Jess Wil- lard, a Kansas cow boy, the big- gest man who ever entered the prize ring as-a "white hope," "who at last has made good. . Johnson will sail Wednesday for | Martinique, there to | en passage back to France, where he purposes to lead the life of a farmer raising pigs and chickens There is"® doubt that he is through with ring. Williard, last night acclaimed the new champion, is going back to the United States to win the fortune denied him yesterday, when John- son got $30,000, Willard taking only a small share of the net receipts. Just what his sBare wal in not known. : The light probably has no parallel. For twenty rounds Johnson punched and poundéd Willard at will, but his blows grew perceptibly less powerful until at last he seemed unable or unwilling to go on. Johnson stopped three or four rounds the battle was little more than a series of plastic poses of white and black gladiators. leading, and for A Spectacular Finale. So it was until the twenty-fifth round, when Willard got one of his wildly swinging windmill right-hand smashes to Johnson's heart. This was the beginning of the end. When the round closed Johnson sont word to his wile that he was "all in," and told her to start for home. She was on the way out and was passing the ring in the twenty sixth round when a stinging left to the" body and a cyclone right to the jaw caused Johnson to crumble on the floor of the ring, where he lay partly outside the ropes until the re- free counted ten. There . was much discussion and pro bably® will be for all time; us whether Jolinson was really knocked out. In the sense of being smashed into uncongciousness he certainly was not. The general opinion is Johnson knew that there was no pos- | gibility of his winning, so when I micked down he chese to take the count rather than stand further pun- ishment. Johnson had often said he would not foolishly submit to repeated knock downs when: he found he had met his master. A second or two after Jack Welsh, the' referce, had | } | counted ten, Jonson quickly got up. A moment later threre was a rush of spectators to the fighting plat- form. f Soldiers Escort Priacipals For an instant it seemcd as trouble was threatened and some! fifty or more of the several hundred soldiers sfiitioned about the fight arefa, jumped into the ring and formed circles about the vanquished and the victor. Under escort of the soldiers Wil- lard and Johnson left the ring, while Y Continuing ish Johanson. When the round started Johnson was 'slow in getting from his corner! and his groggmess 'spurred me on. 1 backed him into a corner, feinted | with my left, forcing him to shift his guard and then shot my right against his jaw with ail the power in my body, ending «the fight and realizing my life's greatest ambition. . Johnson said: I met a betler man and was beaten. I did the best 1 could and put forth the best that was in me to win, 'but, despite the rain of blows, Willard seemed unafiected, though I hit him hard} enough and clten en- | ough in the first twenty rounds to floor ten ordinary men. !
