Desperate Prize Fight.

Pittsburp, Pa, 4.-Rossgrove, Cd
the West Pennsylvania railroad
line, nine miles from Allegheny,
was the scene, this afternoon, of one
of the most brutal and holly cons
tested hard glove prize fights that
ever took place in Western Penn>
sylvania. Principals were Patrick
Moran and Mccoy. ia rounds
We're fought in one hour and thirty>
six minutes. The fight had been on
the tapis for several months, and
was for purse of three hundred
dollars. Both of the men are
pugilists of some repute, Mccoy
having fought several battles in
this vicinity, while Moran parti-
cipated in number of fights in
this country and England. Mccoy
is n years old and Moran 81. Ow-
ing to the great difference in age it
was thought the former would have
an easy victory, and betting was 2
to in favor of Nc Coy. The en-
counter was to have taken place on
Thanksgiving, but was postponed
fOt some reason and it v as generally
believed off. This afternoon 100
sporting men left this city and
arrived at Rossgrove at 8
o'clock. A ring was marked out,
but no ropes were put up, and at
3.42 time was called. At the be-
ginning Mccoy broke his right
wrist, and for the rest of the battle
fought with his left hand. Both
men appeared determined to win,
and were soon covered with blood.
After Mccoy broke his wrist he
fought desperately and succeeded
in knocking Moran down no
times. In the 111th round Moran
got in terrific blow on McCoy's
neck, telling him like an OK. He
was picked up and carried to his
corner. but was completely dazed
aud wanted to stop fighting, but his
friends prevailed on him to continue
and he fought three more rounds,
Moran knocking him out in the
Hath round. Both men were ter
ribly punished. and Mccoy had to
be carried to the train.
