The Coming Prize Fight.

The police IN England have received in.
structions to prevent John l.. Sullivan and
Charles Mitchell from engaging in a prize
fight In our dispatches yesterday the state
ment was made that they were hunting for
Sullivan, and that they had thus far failed
to find him. Prize fighting is brutal, and
the English authorities are right in trying
to prevent meeting between Sullivan and
Mitchell. If the sluggers, however, are sim
cere in their efforts TO meet, they will doubt
less succeed in doing 50.
According to the arranged programme,
the fight is to take place on the Continent
on March 10 or II. The fight is for s., 600
and the money has been deposited with the
stakeholder. The impression is that the
fight will not be long one. Sullivan is
much this larger and heavier man, and the
impression is that Mitchell will be whipped
in very few minutes The offers of three
to one on Sullivan find no takers
As it viii be difficult to find a place in
Europe where the fight can be conducted
without danger of interference from the
officers of the law, comparatively few per
sons will be permitted to be present. If
large number were invited notice of the
time and place of meeting would be certain
to reach the peace authorities, and the fight
prevented.
If Sullivan and Mitchell succeed in hav-
ing a meeting, the chances are that the
latter will be badly hurt. Sullivan has no
love for him, and has been prevented on
several occasions by friends from engaging
in rough and tumble fight with him when
they have accidentally met in public re-
sorts. Mitchell pretends that he comes
much nearer being a gentleman than Sulh-
van does, aud he never loses an opportunity
to tell Sullivan that he is only big brute
If il becomes certain that the sluggers
will have meeting there will be almost as
much interest in the result of it as there
would be in the result of a battle between
two great European nations. When Hee-
nan and Sayers had their great mill" in
England the anxiety in this country to get
early news of it was general and intense
They were much more evenly matched
than Sullivan and Mitchell are, and for
that reason, perhaps, there was a little
more interest taken in their fight than there
will be in that of Sullivan and Mitchell
There will be more taken in the Sulli-
van and Mitchell affair, however, than
there ought 10 be- 1t is fully time that an
end was put 10 such brutal sport as prize
fighting
