WRESTLING CONTEST.
A TERRIFIC STRUGGLE.
By Telegraph.—Press Association.—
London, September 11. Gama, an Indian wrestler, and Zybisco, the well-known Galician champion, contested a terrible wrestling match at the Stadium on Saturday.
The match was stopped after two hours and 40 minutes' wrestling, without either having gained a fall.
The contest will be resumed next Saturday.
Gama, who only recently arrived in, England from India, challenged Gotch and the Japanese champion, who is appearing at the Anglo- Japanese 'Exhibition, but it would seem that all the cracks are scared of. him. Anyhow, Zybisco is the only man who would accept the Indian's challenge.
