Sullivan says : {" guess you will hear |
something definite in day or so, as l think |
everything has been arranged for my meet |
ing with Heard, which is to take place |
about Friday next at Coney Island. We |
are to spar in public, six rounds, with soft |
gloves, for scientific points and according |
to the Marquis of Queensberry rules, the |
man making the most clear hits to be win |
| ner and take all the gate receipts
Sullivan is said to be bankrupt, notwith- |
standing all the money he has made. At |
| one time he was said to be worth 100000, |
| but it is all gone. II takes considerable |
| coin to keep the eminent Bostonian going, |
| but he is at last at the end of his rope, |
| financially speaking. There is now some |
| talk Of Lees, the Australian champion, |
| coming to America TO fight him, and if he
