A Prize Fight i'm Nevada.
VIRGINIA CITY, March 21st.-The
long talked of prize fight for $500 be-
tween Sullivan, champion of Austria
liza and Trevillian of this place came
off this morning on the Carson river.
A special train lett the depot at
o'clock with the combatants and
about $50 of the fancy ostensibly for
the Mound House, but on nearing that
station it was discovered that the
Sheriffs of Ormsby, Stoney and Lyons
counties were on hand to prevent the
meeting and the engineer was in
structed to run past, which he did,
leaving the officers standing on the
platform. They stopped few miles
beyond and pitched the ring near the
county line. At half past IL O'Clock
the men entered the ring, both ap-
pearently in fine condition. Trevil-
lian was the heaviest by about twenty
pounds, but Sullivan's reputation for
science and staying qualities made
him the favorite. Time being called
both men stepped to the scratch and
the fight began, both were cautious
and did some good sparrings. Travil-
lian got in light blow on Sullivan's
nose without drawing blood. Sullivan
then got in one on Trevillian's mouth
and much sparring followed, when
suddenly Trevillian got in tremendu-
Gus blow, knocking Sullivan com
pletely off his feet, he fell fiat on his
back and when his seconds got to him
he was bleeding profusely from the
mouth and nose. This virtually set
tied the fight, Sullivan staggered to
the centre. On time being called for
the next five rounds only to be knock
ed down without making any resist
ance. On time being called for the
9TH round Trevillian came mp smiling,
but it was all Sullivan could do to
walk to the scratch, Trevilian struck
Sullivan a heavy blow on the cheek
knocking him down and ending the
fight.
