WRESTLING.
BLOMFIELD WINS AGAIN. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) CHRTSTCHUROH, Wednesday. Exerting his famous octopus clamp to such a degree that his opponent could not continue, Blomfield (16.8) to-night beat Tonti (15.8) in a wrestling match that attracted a packed house. The hold was applied in the seventh round and Tonti was obviously unfit to continue after he had been disentangled. Until that time Tonti, a clever and agile wrestler, more than held his own in a fast and spectacular bout.
