RIOT AFTER FIGHT.
LOS ANGELES, May 2. Johnny Kilbane and Johnny Dundee fought a draw here. Kilbane apparently outpointed the challenger in every round but Dundee's desperate effort in the twentieth session evidently, in the opinion of the referee, earned him the wrdict of a draw. The decision was decidedly unpopular, and the crowd loudlv voiced its disapproval. Kilbane, a't many stages of tlio fight, made Dun<'c<> look a novice. After tho contest th<re was a riot outside the enclosure, and a young man was struck on the head .with a rock. His injuries will probably prove ! fatal. Several shots were fired when 'the police and the mob came into contact.
