WRESTLING.
WONG DEFEATS SANTEN. (By Telegraph.-—Press Association.), MASTERTOX, this .day. ' The dreaded "King Foo" stopper hold of Wong Buk Cheung spelt disaster for Charlie Santen when the .pair met here last night before a house full to capacity. The wrestlers gave a first-class exhibition, the bout being fast and spectacular throughout. Santen gained a submission fall with a reverse barred toe hold in the fourth round, but Wong | evened up in the next round when he dumped Santen, to secure a fall with the "King Foo" stopper hold. The bout ended early ill the sixth round when Wong trapped the impetuous Santen to take the deciding fall with a body press. '
