Fully five thousand people congregatetl

might take place, John L. Sullivan the
champion Of America, having offered $500
to Jimmy Elliott and $3.50 to any ether
man who would face him IN the ring for

contest. The rain, however, put an end to all

round
THE FIGHT.
ROUND 1.--They got to work at once,
Sullivan forcing the fighting and lodging
quickly, while Elliott seemed slow. In an
instant almost Elliott was partially knock
ed down; but recovering, clinched, and
they were called Of, by the referee. A
knock down blow sent Elliott back in his
corner, and as he got up he caught sull-
van by the legs. Reaching his feet he was
again knocked down, and the fall against
the ropes and posts stripped the skin off his
back.
EoUe;D 2,--Sullivan forced the lighting
from the first going over into Ellio5t's
corner, striking him on the head and neck
and forcing him on the ropes. Elliott re-
sponde(! but feebly, as he evidently was
suffering from the punishment already re-
ceiVed and choking from blood flowing in
Wardly from his nose. He endeayorcd to
close on Sullivan, but the latter stepping

LOUISVILLE TOBACCO MARKET.

LOUISVILLE, June 16.-Iu the leaf tobacco
trade while the receipts have fallen off to a
low figure sales have been kept up to the
usual amount Tor this time of year. A few
more of such weeks will about use up the
stock of unsold tobacco in the market, when
the contemplated holiday will begin. Prices
have ruled more steady, closing to-day as
quoted the past two weeks. The only fea-
ture of the week was a special sale at one of
the warehouses of dark tobacco. One hum
bred and twenty-five hogsheads were in
spected and sold. The highest price OBJ
tanned was 1910 for one hogshead from
Barren county. This, with possibly twenty
others classed as fine, the balance are about
as seen on the breaks every day. The second
day was for b1rleys and Green rivers. The
proportion OF really fue was no greater than
SSc for bright old hurley, Soc for new hurley,
and 169c for sweet old Green river. OF the
quantity sold at both ssles-25S hogsheads-
over 100 hogsheads were of city rehandling
and reviews, and had it not been given out
special sale buyer passing along the
lines OF sampled tobaccos would hardly have
noted that there was anything unusual going
on. The idea of having a special sale did
not occur Hntil one-half of the crop had
been marked, and the bulk of the fine crops,
which were few outside of the burleys, had
been sold and consumed. Receipts this week
were go hogshesds; receipts this week last
year, 1860 hogsheads. The crop Of 1881
sold to date is is, AL hogsheads; Inc crop OF
1880 sold to date last year was q lis hogs
heads; the crop OF 1873 sold to-date is $780,
los hogsheads
