WRESTLING.
COLEMAN BEATS THE TURK. By Telegraph—Per Press Association. WELLINGTON, Oct. 29. Eight tense rounds, packed with bright and exciting wrestling, brought the verdict to Abe Coleman (13.0) in a match with Kara Pasha (12.9) at the Town Hall to-night. Each had a fall when the last round began, but neither could gain a deciding fall and the decision went to Coleman on points.— It was a thrilling encounter, lull of incident, and its grim action had a well-filled house under a strain c.f excitement most of the time. Pasha was out-wrestled only insofar as he was unable to cope with Coleman’s nuggety frame, coming at frequent in tervals, head first and head long, through the air.
